tinker Posted January 6 VT Supporter Share Posted January 6 (edited) This is just the Milan media army trying to make up issues because we blocked Lenglet moving, they really needed him. If Duran has been drawn in by them then more fool him. They won't sign him because they don't need him and won't pay anywhere near what we would ask for him at this point, he's our only stand in striker ffs.

imavillan Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 potential? maybe raw? very disappointed if he leaves? nah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewiek2 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 If he thinks he can get the better of Emery and Monchi then he's in for a very rude awakening. There's only going to be one winner here. And he'll be gone swiftly. See ten Hag, that's how you deal with you g players with attitude problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were willing to offer Barca €15m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaJay Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 22 minutes ago, Condimentalist said: He reminds me a lot of Balotelli. All the talent but a bit of a loose cannon with questionable attitude. Like Balotelli, he can definitely be a difference maker, but whether he fulfils his promise is debatable at this stage. I like his potential and if he goes we should command a profit plus a big % sell on fee. We'd better also get a replacement who can start as well as affect games as Duran ain't ready for that. Has a bit of that Balotelli fire in him, he's very raw and immature on the pitch, so would not surprise me if he's the same off it. I'm not convinced he has the technical ability with the ball at his feet to make it at the top level, but he's hard to work out, his goal against palace was brilliant and he has some strong qualities. Wouldn't be overly disappointed to see him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duran is bang average. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turvontour Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 There'd have to be a forward coming in then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I suppose we’ll get a better idea by 430pm when the line up for the FA Cup match is announced. I totally expect Duran to start this match unless he has burnt his bridges with Emery and is demanding a move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinebro Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 (edited) I think players pushing for a move if they are not playing is completely fair. Edited January 6 by Pinebro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 The comparison to Balotelli is ridiculous. Do people remember the things that guy did or how he acted? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. They are lazy comparison. Balotelli was an incredible talent but also out of control! However if Duran was anywhere near as good as Balotelli was at the same age he’d already have played a lot more minutes and no way would he be for sale.

MotoMkali Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Guess he's joining Bayern and Benfica too. He's probably been following AC for a while and may not have been following villa at all. Unless anyone actually knows we shouldn't be chatting about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got bad news for him if he wants to join Milan then... I think it's an easy target, villa fans aren't enamoured with him, there's not much negativity on the players at the moment so they seem to have gone in on this kid, fans have perpetuated it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergie wouldn't care if you were prime Messi. It may seem stupid to some people, but you have no idea how much damage just ONE bad apple can do to a dressing room. I'm sure he has been treated well by everyone at the club, but there are some people who just need to learn the hard way. They either come back stronger and better, or continue to decline. It's a reason why people say i'm an idiot when i tell them i genuinely wouldn't want Mbappe near our dressing room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
