  • If Silva and Mitrovic go I can see Paulinh wanting to as well but also doubting Fulham will let him go for anything reasonable.
  • Wouldn’t mind Billing. A real goal threat last season. If it was my money I’d probably go for JWP and Alex Scott (yes, @Slacker, I’ve seen him play) and a proper DM, but I wouldn’t be anti-Billing at all.
  • But have you seen him play live 😜
  • Live and in the flesh. If not, then your opinion isn't valid. Hahaha
  • Liverpool after Palhinha according to Guardian and Sky Sports with £80m the rumoured asking price
  • Just want to see players that improve the team

    Incredible.

    Love the 99.
  • Ola Aina has signed for Forest on a free.

    I only mention it because we bid £10m for him late in the January window, but now presumably aren't interested.

    So I assume we're either after a better RB/RWB, or we no longer want someone in that role, because he represents a better deal now than he did then.

  • What is going on with that Barnet? Does Payet get hairstyling advice from David James?

  • No ASLEF, he’s got an interview for the boss of North Korea’s job.
  • There seems to be a definite progression...

    Closer to being cloned given the Star Wars reference.
  • Being linked with Harwood-Bellis from Man City today. 21 year old CB who played for England U21s at the Euros. On loan at Burnley last season.
  • We were linked with him a couple of weeks ago too. I’d be very happy with him coming in.

    So our current squad…

    Soucek - Paqueta
    Bowen - Fornals - Benrahma
    Scamacca

    Areola
    Johnson - Kehrer - Ogbonna - Cresswell
    Chesters - Potts - Downes - Cornet
    Ings - Antonio

    An amazing window based on players we’ve been linked with would be:

    Alex Scott £25m
    Borges £14m
    Adrien Truffert £16m
    Harwood-Bellis £17m (or Luiz Felipe £14.5m)
    Billing £13m
    André from Fluminense £28m

    If we sell Antonio then I’d love Elye Wahi but it’ll be hard to get him as Chelsea and Arsenal are interested and we’d probably not have the budget if we signed the above. We’ve not been linked with him but a cheaper option could be Gift Orban who played against us in the confederations league for Gent last season

    Despite having premier league experience, I’m not interested in many of the PL/ex PL players we’ve been interested in - Ward-Prowse, Kalvin Philips, Connor Gallagher, Mctominay, Max Aaron’s, or Harry Maguire.

    This quote has been attributed to Sullivan, re new signings:

    Only the boy from Man City, otherwise it is very hard work and the fees crazy. We offered £50m for the Fulham player Palhina which was rejected and we won’t be going any higher.

    The "crazy fees" must have been anticipated as soon as the world knew Rice was for sale. Particularly given how hard Sullivan rode Arsenal for the £105m.

    Seems a bit naive to think that we can play hard ball for Rice to then be surprised that Fulham do the same for Palhinha.
  • If the team walking out against Bournemouth is the below or something resembling the below then the manager and board both need out of the club.

    Fabianski

    Coufal Zouma Aguerd Emerson

    Paqueta Soucek Fornals

    Bowen Scamacca Benrahma

    Fees have always been “crazy” IMO, Villa have just splashed the cash, it happens, there are deals to be done, just gotta be smart and identify available and affordable targets, hope that is what this new person was bought in for …but we as usual IMO we are leaving things a bit late , especially for the midfield area, nothing new there…Oh well…still a few weeks before our 1st game…
  • That’s a decent 11 if that’s the side for Bournemouth.
