He’s a good player, but for Villa in the premier league with big budget and big ambitions... is it really the right thing to go shopping in the middle of the championship? For me it’s a no. If we were going to do it we should have done it to try and get us up. Now we’re up I’d hope to be buying more accomplished players in the top flight, or big European leagues. I agree, we shouldn't do all our shopping in the Championship. However, one or two prime purchases from there are fine mixed in with Premiership and overseas players of quality as well. I do think Lolley has the ability to step up and shine in the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 We know he can do it at Villa Park too, destroyed us going forward in the mental 5-5 draw and scored a worldy. The more I think about it, the more I think it’s the right call, him and Grealish in the side for a period could hone an unbelievable club culture. Something akin to United in the 90’s where the players (having come through the youth setup, so not the same scenario admittedly) all played with total passion and commitment for the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was ok. His goal was more nyland being shit. For over £10 million this would be a massive gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
