I remember Ings saying he couldn't even tell anyone himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i don't get why people are so miserable. I quite enjoy transfer speculation. Even if/when some of the tweeters do turn out to be right, the people who hate it will shoot them down anyway " Chiesa was hardly a surprise... even @Jas10 called that weeks before it happened " etc Yes, we are aware that there is also a sea of bollox in the speculation sphere as well.

Yeah I remember that - he said he wasn't allowed to text his Dad. Odd that they were so secretive about that Ings transfer in particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 People still think we’re after Felix? God I hope not, seems a bit of a bad apple and hardly set the world alight where he’s been recently. Of course Emery could work his magic but I just don’t see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I'm just not sure where Felix fits in here. Diaby is playing that SS position and then we also have Zaniolo who is pretty similar to him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 100% don't think he would come here but if he did he would have a point to prove and he has decent quality. However I expect he'll trot off to Saudi or on loan to some Italian side.

I can't see it either but we'll see now whether Barca move for him. Rumour was if they could move on either Fati or Ferran then they could go for him. And now Fati appears to be on the move. My bigger hope had been we'd be the ones to get Ferran - I'd prefer him to Felix anyway - but looks like he's staying and Fati moving to make way for Felix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said as much himself, and when Barca gave him the number 7 shirt this season, that pretty much confirmed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit terrible vibes from him and on the back of one decent season! Close to the end of EVERY transfer window there are rumours of a marquee signing on the last day; never happens though. And you know what i'm fine with that; Felix does not fit with the 'family' and philosophy of unity Emery wants to create at Villa. With Moreno and J. Ramsey back Villa are looking good.

The tweet says states looking for a marquee signing, Felix possibly, or someone in that category is how I've read it. The club have been working on something big for a while and it was always going to happen late in the window. I dare say Felix is one of those 'marquee' names on the list alongside someone of that ilk that we're looking at signing.

Tomaszk Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Fair play @IrishVilla10 You took time out to do exactly what was requested. Delivered. Still poo-pooed by people who have made their mind up already. Sorry you wasted your time. Evidence being shoved in their face and still arguing black is white. Embarrassing. Behaviour like Trump maga nutters. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Also re itk etc tweets - my brother used to work for a prestigious clothing firm in the mailbox. The personal shoppers there would get information regarding which footballers were signing for the midland’s clubs. My brother was the logistics guy so he would either get the name of the player or the agent looking after him. Then the items get sent to Bodymoor Heath initially but the name of the players would have to be disclosed by this stage. Anyone anywhere in the chain might get a bit of info. Apparently we were close to signing JWP when Jack left and also last season we were close to Tielemans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
