We do know he's not from the area or country, and is understandably thinking over his next, significant move in his career, perhaps wanting to play in meaningful matches over being permanently benched by a middling PL team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes 18 played a handful of first team games and bossed it at under 17/18/19 level where he is bigger and stronger than other players of that age. If he doesnt want to be with us then fine go! There's stuff about him wanting more money than what we've offered There's stuff about him wanting to play more games There's nothing about him thinking he's better than us or wanting to play for a better/bigger club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 He is looking after himself and doesn't really have any deep connections with Villa. He may decide after all staying on is the best option, or he may not. We don't know and most of this is pure conjecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we shouldn't underestimate the effect that signing Coutinho (and Buendia) has had on his perception of his first team opportunities. Personally I think that he is capable of playing further back and he should also be seeing the positive of us playing a formation that features at least one or two and maybe as many as four positions where he can play. Personally, I think he's got fantastic potential and he's a very good player now - I really hope he stays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carney has made 15 appearances and had a massive 300 minutes in total. The comparison is ridiculous. He's rumoured to have been offered 30k p/w but wants double which if true is pure greed imo. 30k p/w is a more than decent wage given his age and stage of development especially considering Saka is on similar and is a regular prem starter and fully established England senior international.

Indeed. The thing is, if Chuk is that demanding with money at his current age, with hardly any appearances, then it doesn't bode well for his career. End up being a mercenary, playing for the highest bidder. I know we don't know the facts and I hope its just exaggerated rumours, buts it not looking good.

mikeyp102 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 4 hours ago, useless said: Also trust me when he gets a run of games he won't be 'miles off' the level of Bellingham. Carney is no doubt very talented with a high ceiling in the game, but I’m sure I agree with this. Bellingham has the potential to be one of England’s greatest ever players, he doesn’t seem to have much weakness to his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
