GeordieVillan Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 (edited) Video interview on Sky Sports this morning showing him saying he still thinks he has the ability to play for Chelsea and his aim is to go back there in the Summer. He’s just waiting for his chance and then he needs to grab it with both hands. While this should come as no surprise, a few things we learn from this - 1) regardless of whether we get promoted, he isn’t planning on being here next year, and therefore we would need to plan accordingly. 2) he’s weakened the bargaining position of any team wanting to buy him, as he’s made clear that he wants to stay and fight for his place at Chelsea 3) I think it’s quite a silly interview to give in the grand scheme of things. He would have been better off saying that he always wanted to play in the top flight with Chelsea and he’s waiting for his chance, but he’s enjoyed his loan experiences elsewhere, and he’s just focussed on helping Villa go up in the Summer for now. By saying what he has, he’s risking putting in a poor performance and the fans accusing him of not caring as he’s going back to Chelsea in the summer anyway, something which hasn’t happened so far. He actually generated quite a bit of good will by staying quiet in January. 4) fans need their expectations to be realistic about what the intentions are of the loan players - Tammy and Mings being the two most important I think.

A team really needs a midfield who can bag them goal as well, there needs to be a fair amount of player in the starting eleven that at any time can find the net. Come summer any players who leave this is what we really need to make sure we find, those who can score as well as play some lovely football Smith's way.

Chelsea have a two window transfer ban do they not, doesnt that mean that next season they can sell or buy??? I think the only club Tammy will be going to is ours for a loan, that's if Chelsea allow him to remain with us and he wants to be here longer. If we can't grab him which I see no reason why we can't unless we don't go up, the yes I agree we do need to plan accordingly. I keep saying I would love Maupay, lolley, Grabban, Snoddy at Villa, would cost an arm and a leg but think of lolley on the wing and those three attackers at our disposal it a a dream isn't it. Time will tell on all this, he's enjoyed it here that's for sure. Edited March 19, 2019 by Dave-R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted March 23, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 23, 2019 Out of the international with his calf injury. Could do with him being fresh for the run in, maybe a start for Davis wouldnt be the worst idea even if hes fit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted March 25, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 25, 2019 On his Instagram story looks like he’s on holiday, and also recorded himself on the treadmill so the calf doesn’t seem too bad. Hopefully fit for the weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
