Time will tell. I didnt think they actually said they wouldnt take any loans but just no loans that we just gave the player back at the end. They are happy to make loans they lead to us buying the playeer at the end of the loan if it has gone well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it before but it's worth repeating: I could afford to pay Sturridge on a pay-as-you-play deal with what's in my wallet right now. Which is the square root of **** all by the way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would our resident BCFC fan @JamesBCFC care to shed light on his abilities ? Worth a punt for villa? Brownhill is a cracking player. Will be Premier League one day. Central midfielder although has played out on the right for us and as an emergency right back. Personally would say he's the best of our CMs, wouldn't be cheap for anyone looking to buy him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted July 9, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 9, 2019 Sturridge isn't going to happen. It would be such a disastrous move it's obvious we'd never make it. Constantly injured (or as Klopp alluded to, perceives himself as injured so doesn't play), done nothing for years, living off the memory of a purple period that was a long time ago now. Doesn't fit what seem to be going for at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends entirely on his general attitude and application though. Genuine question mate but has there ever been a pay as you play deal? Sturridge for me would but a horrible signing. I think his attitude has always been questionable. I’d be amazed if the speculation is true. Edited July 9, 2019 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that ... hopefully you make it up next season and join us in the prem... I’m from the Cotswolds originally so it would be good for the west to be represented and I like what you are doing as a team in developing players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right, they would only take a loan if the option to buy and fee was set at the end of the loan period. But my argument is why would they do this with Tuanzebe, if he was available to transfer? The media is talking about another loan, not with an option to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they think he will never get a chance at Utd so if they loan him enough then Utd will forget they actually own him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the media it is a loan, the finer details of option to buy etc doesnt matter when selling headlines 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 I’d take axel on a pure loan if it meant we could utilise the funds earmarked for a CB elsewhere this summer. We can then revisit the whole situation next summer and a) purchase Axel b) sign Webster if BCFC dont go up c) buy another quality CB... If we did get him back on loan I’d be inclined personally to also bid for someone like Rodon from Swansea as a young CB to develop/rotate and maybe fill the role if axel is no go... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturridge is an interesting one and on a heavily incentivised pay as you play deal I can see a benefit . When fit is he better than Hogan, Davies or RHM ? I wouldn’t be too fussed if they decided this summer he was a good short term fix... I don’t want him particularly but on the right terms I wouldn’t be overly concerned if we signed him as an option to Wesley & Kodija. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
