Didn’t he once try and get €250k a week out of United? Yeah think so. Realistically, the move to Roma was a chance for him to prove to elite clubs he's still got 'it' after a not ideal end to his Juve career. His wages are decent but not great for a player of his stature. He'd probably have been alright with them for a couple years but those clauses are in there on the basis that if he played well he'd get to renegotiate his salary with a new club. I'd say the bidding starts around £150k, we can pay that, but so can every elite club in the continent. So I think it's incredibly unlikely we wind up with Dybala. The only way I could see it is if he really likes being *the* guy and we may end up representing a good mix of European football, Big wages, top manager and being able to offer him that status in the squad. Bit of a stretch though Edited April 28, 2023 by HalfTimePost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Dybala will probably go to PSG to be a rotation player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we finish ahead of Brighton every year we'll be doing very very well. Interesting. A 21yr old Championship forward player with 11 goals and 4 assists in 35 games. I have an interesting piece of ITK that Villa have already signed a 21yr Championship forward player with 10 goals and 6 assists in just 18 games this summer. Deal is done and he will come to us this summer. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pez1974 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I am genuinely confident of 6th. Liverpool will get 5th. Spurs are falling apart, and if we beat them, I am sure we'll get more points in our other games than them. Brighton have the games, but losing to Forest is an example of how their games will go. Again, we need to beat them at home, but suspect by then a draw will be enough. We have momentum over these teams, and although the games look tough - they are probably more worried about us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Archer makes the cut for Emery, it'll be as a striker only IMO. Can't see him working in the PL in that supporting role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Pedro replaces Trossard. A very talented player that will flourish at Brighton with the type of football they play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wishywashy Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 It really puts things into perspective when you consider that this season was the first in a very, very long time where it hasn't been a matter of life or death whether we sign a bunch of starters. We've only just really shaken off the consequences of awful squad building from the Xia-era and getting promoted arguably a season before we were really ready. Like, we obviously need a striker, but it's not a case of "it'll be really, really bad if we don't get this one right". The squad-building is finally finding some stability and now there's an elite manager at the helm. Fascinating summer ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we are facing a fascinating summer and we need to appreciate that we will aiming to bring in top quality players wherever we can. Thinking a player “will never come to Villa” will not be automatically applicable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I think moving forward we will only see two maybe three players come in the summer windows and possibly one in the winter depending on injuries etc. We don’t have to get more than that in because of the fact that Don Unai will surely improve the current players some more after a full summer pre-season. Naturally some players will hit their ceilings and will be replaced but until then 2/3 will be enough imo. @Tomaszk agree about the Watford lad Pedro. Very good player.

CVByrne Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 I can see us with a bench for our first game next season of New GK Cash Carlos Digne Buendia Ramsey Bailey Kang-In Duran Imagine, with Guendouzi, a new forward and a new RB/RCB Could even have Dendoncker, Young, Coutinho not making a match day squad! Would be incredible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustibrooks Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) L’Équipe via Sports Witness have linked us with Adrien Truffert, who would be a decent back up to Moreno if we sell Digne. I can’t seem to find the link from L’Équipe directly though. Edited April 28, 2023 by Rustibrooks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to improve his defending a bit but he’s only 21 so he’s got room to grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is just a regurgitation of an old link that's all a bit hypothetical: Matte Moretto who broke the Moreno link said back in December that Truffert was the alternative target for a starting LB if we didn't get Moreno. We may well have bid in January, but I'm not so sure we'd go back in even if Digne leaves: especially since Moreno has solidified himself in the team.
