Bookies dont give much away do they.

You may as well stick the money on Villa to win the league for three times the returns, as it’s virtually the same bet

They are probably wary of another Leicester happening.

freak occurrence that i fear. maybe once every 30 years that happens

More than that. Whilst Blackburn did win the league that was hardly like Leicester. Blackburn spent an absolute shite load of money to win it.

And yet you think Jack should have stayed to win it with us?

 

[Villan57]

I'm awaiting a CB to arrive, we've just signed a striker that I didn't think we'd sign in a million years, given the fee and him being 29 etc.
Perhaps we will announce a CB in the same way someone to challenge Ezri and big Ty not play second fiddle, it's a strange market

Tarkowski?

 

[The Fear]

100m for a player who’s scored 15 goals and 16 assists in 96 games isn’t bad really.

Spot on.

 

[The Fear]

Wonder when JWP will be announced!!

 

[Villan57]

Probably more difficult to get them to part with him may take 40m.

potentially but more realistically just to crack the top 6

And when he's older he can sit his grand kids down and show them some pieces of paper that show how he helped the mighty Villa finish 5th.

Or he can sit them down and show them all the medals and trophies he won.

It's a short career. I don't blame anyone who is talented enough to play for one of the massive clubs for going for it.

He'll be judged on medals and trophies same as every other footballer when he hangs his boots up. Nobody remembers or celebrates 5th place finishes.

 

[DeanoVilla]

JWP odds have come in from 6/4 to 1/2.

 

[Pangloss]

Wonder when JWP will be announced!!

Maybe he won't and we will sign someone like Neves instead.

 

[DeanoVilla]

Maybe he won't and we will sign someone like Neves instead.

Na'h... we've not even been linked to Neves. No rumours at all... as if that's gonna happen.

 

[Melon Donkey]

We certainly seem to act with some class in our transfer dealings. Maybe why we can get things done under the radar. Other clubs trust us and know we won't turn it into a circus and are happy to deal with us.

 

[garygaryshaw]

Wonder when JWP will be announced!!

He's out with a knee injury apparently so not sure we'd be following that one up, assuming there is any truth in the link.

 

[BodyButter]

With the Cantwell rumours, I'm starting to think we would have been better off offering them £200m for their entire squad than picking them off one by one.
