We definitely need some experience. Cahill fits the bill.
Cahill doesn't fit the new villa philosophy. Shame about Alex thought he would come back on loan

But Cahill has hardly played for almost 2 years.
Don’t get this at all mate. If you’re talking about a general rule for the squad - then absolutely, but as a one off signing to me I can’t agree with you. Cahill will bring much needed experience and organisation to a relatively inexperienced squad. He’s been a great player over the years and is still better than anything we currently have. Don’t see any problem with having one or two short term deals combined with a long term transfer strategy.
Absolutely.
100% agree.
With what we have, who we have signed Cahill will fit in perfectly. Frozen out last year but kept dignified . Model pro. Bags and bags of experience. Not too old for a season or two .
I have been totally meh with signings so far . But for some reason this would bring those signings into perspective and I would see clarity of thought and sound thinking and planning in that they identify that experience has a place amongst younger players and players with no Premier experience. This would be as astute as JT for a season in my humble.
No one will have a clue what we are paying Cahill if we sign him but I trust the powers that be to make a sensible offer and if he accepts then it will be a good signing. He is no back number.
Chap on Twitter, reckons that Cahill is definitely joining. He’s not claiming to be an ITK, but he reckons he’s heard it pretty much 1st hand.
they'll all know what he's on (if we sign him obvs) -
be a few disgruntled if he's coming in way above the others after doing sweet fa for the last couple of years.
meh
That would be me. I’m not ITK by any stretch... I’m sure many could confirm that on here... I don’t do all that crap. But I’m friends with Gary’s cousin, met him on holiday in Lanzarote when I was a teenager when Cahill was still with us and he came to a few games at Villa Park and got us some tickets in the players family area in the Trinity. Anyway after reading the paper reports this morning I spoke with him and he said, ‘ Yep pretty much a done deal, it could still fall through obviously but he said it was all pretty much done’. So we shall see.

Phillips, Cahill, Mings and Maupay on the right deals, in the next month and we will be ready to have a crack at putting down the next course of bricks in the rebuild.
Staying in the Greed League with the amount of new faces we have will be an achievement IMO.
