Add-ons.The main thing I want to know is if we're buying a bunch of £15-20 million players, how are we going to end up with enough players for the year?

Nottingham Forest are reportedly still ‘interested’ in a move for Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbyk this summer.
Gary Crosby jumped straight from non league to the top flight too - no league 1 or 2 bedding in or getting experience- from non league and straight into playing in massive games . That takes some balls and ability.
I cannot think of one other player maybe apart from Roy Keane since then who’s managed to do it ?
That’s the flip side. We gave him a ‘home’ when he needed it. Cooper, the club and the fans looked after him, gave him confidence and allowed him to flourish.I'm not sure its a great decision on his part.
Conte's a great tactician but his style of man management seems more Warnock than Cooper to me.
And instalments.Add-ons.
He does look decent though and worth a punt at the right price.He would be a good addition but I believe the agent is touting him to every EPL club
Another possibility for that second striker…

Spence couldn’t lace Crosby’s boots and he was much better for us than half a season !!! And in the top flight don’t forget when we were fighting on all fronts .
Villa have screwed themselves with that £15m valuation. Nobody is talking to them about him and probably won’t until that valuation drops.I get the feeling it's Dovbyk or Davis.
So did Birtles and Anderson and both were infinitely better than Crosby who was bang average.
I like Davis, but I honestly think Villa would struggle to shift him for half the price they’re quoting. He’s a very good Championship striker, but I doubt he’ll be prolific even there. I’m pretty sure the goals he did score for us were against the poorer sides, and while he offered a lot outside of goals, there’s huge questions over whether he can replicate that at a higher level, especially when other sides are going to have more possession and be higher up the pitch against you.
Not saying he’ll never make it in the Prem, just that I’m not sure yet. It’s hard to justify that kind of fee when he’s not even got 10 career goals to his name, and has only scored once in the top flight - especially for a 24 year old.
I meant since Crosby . And Brian Clough didn’t think he was bang average - I’d take his opinion over a trap 2 dwelling snert ( whatever that even means ) thanks
Unfortunately around Crosbys time - Brians judgement wasn't what it once was.
