Too many fans just cannot move on from the past, can’t shed the negativity and inferiority complex, regardless of how well we are doing or how far we have come. Doubting Unai, his players and signings even after everything he has done in such a short space of time Despite all the panic and fretting, we did manage to get CL football for the first time in our history. And we have the best manager in, at least, the modern age. And owners too. Edited August 11 by Jas10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jas10 Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 (edited) 10 minutes ago, villa4europe said: Because hes a lot of money for someone who is seemingly on a downward trajectory He's a massive risk Unai and Monchi would seemingly beg to differ… Still relatively young with a lot of talent and potential… and Unai believes he can work with and elevate him - that’s enough for me. We won’t do an overly expensive deal either, it’s got to be on our terms and suit us… that’s why I think this is taking time and what most reports appear to be stating or suggesting. We’re not desperate and are likely to have alternative targets… it’s up to Atletico whether they want to find a lasting solution or keep kicking that can down the road… We could do with an extra touch of class and quality and someone to boost our attack. Lost a lot in terms of goal contributions from departed players and it’s very much a wait and see on whether the players we have can at least match that… I have faith in them and Unai though. I just trust in our manager. Anyway, we’ve gone round and round on this so many times so maybe we should all just sit back and wait Edited August 11 by Jas10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 11 VT Supporter Share Posted August 11 For me we need someone else up there with the sale of Diaby. Whether that's Felix or someone else I don't really care. Emery clearly wants Felix so that's fine by me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Townsend Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 (edited) 6 minutes ago, Jas10 said: We seem to have two sides here, for and against… and nothing in between I'm honestly in between. For: huge potential, needs to revive his career, Unai seems to want him and would be the best coach to get him back on track. He would be a marquee signing and possibly the final piece of the jigsaw in an area we need quality. Against: massive money, has flopped elsewhere, seems to be on the downward trajectory, doesn't appear that keen on us, has been shown the door a few times too many for my liking, could potentially be an expensive flop if it doesn't pay off I am genuinely in the middle!

PaulC Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Why is this a bigger risk than paying £50 million for Onana? Neither player has shown a great level of consistency in their careers so far. If we trust in Monchi and Emery in that purchase then we must trust them in this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm more baffled how much attention we keep giving it given the lack of any solid indications we're actually interested. All the hype seems to be based on so called ITK's. Which I wouldn't put much weight in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
