Key players in key positions are hugely important. I hope Dean and co realise that centre midfield will be key to whether we flourish or struggle this season. I'd love to know what they're really thinking behind the scenes this transfer window. Definitely. I think Adam Armstrong will be a really great signing for them. Keeping JWP is a massive bonus (although definitely has a touch of the last season JG release clause about it), if they replace Vestergard they will be fine. Fair play to them. I’d really really love to think that we weren’t played by agents to get their players better deals not just once but twice in one summer because that would actually be embarrassing. I’m hoping that our interest in jwp actually finished a few weeks ago and was only perpetuated by the media. A behind the scenes look at how everything at Villa has gone this close season would indeed be fascinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESR now JWP? we had zero chance of getting ESR and i bet it was the same with JWP too...just games to get him a better deal and us mugs went along with it So we paid out how much for them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danceoftheshamen Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Really not actually too fussed about JWP as apart from his set pieces i feel we need something else instead... that CDM is the urgent one surely? We have a lot of similar players who are more suited to central mid surely?! Edited August 19, 2021 by danceoftheshamen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Let’s never try and sign top players in case they just get new contracts out of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I hope trying to sign players only to have them sign new contracts doesn't become a thing we do. That is twice now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHY Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 9 minutes ago, DCJonah said: Your original post seemed to be panicking. You're worrying about other clubs getting stronger and are hypothetically talking about struggling to sign players 2 years down the line and having our players want to leave. Like I said, I don't really get it. You might in 2 years time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he’ll be Henderson’s replacement at Plop I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 If Ward-Prowse rejected us, at least that means we are actually aware of our need for more CM options. Let’s see how Brighton feel about a £40m bid for Bissouma. Maybe throw Wesley in as well as they need a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 JWP's price must have been too high. If we are going to be ripped off this summer then I suppose we must wait. Very strong position for future windows and a few new faces to integrate. A good win under our belts on Sat (you hope) and we'll feel fine about this window.
