(That should do it) I'm definitely coming around to the idea that we aren't signing a DM in any window soon. Everything seems to suggest that Gerrard is looking at midfielders who can do more than one job and that helping to retain possession is more important than having someone who can only win it back. I suspect that there will be someone playing in a slightly deeper role like Luiz has been - but I don't think it will be someone that we talk about on here as a 6.

It's obviously a different story when we shop abroad as foreign journalists always tend to break the news at some point during the negotiations. Where am I going with this? Bissouma is a done deal. Most euro leagues when it comes to transfers are more open about transfers than the Prem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been banging the drum for a DM. However, I have also said, if we don't intend to play a th an out and out DM, we would need better all-round and stronger midfielders who can do it all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most (all) Prem teams when it comes to transfers are more open about transfers then Aston Villa. Sorry, couldn't resist. It's true too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably a load of bollocks but the general consensus is that if anyone were to offer us that much money for Cash, we'd sell. A very good right back but £40m is a ridiculous fee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was highly rated a few years back when Norwich got promoted but has struggled in his 2 seasons in the PL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
