RW He'd be a Bailey upgrade, and a bloody good one at that. Then again, Bailey was one of my most excited signings.

The positions Bailey, Buendia, and McGinn have been playing off of him this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather a nico Williams type for that role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 (edited) Pretty sure Tommy Jordan our communication director said Matt Maher is a reliable journalist when it comes to Villa news. Edited May 26, 2023 by Sulberto21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English, overrated, and will be overpriced for what he offers. I would be very disappointed if he was brought in as more than a bench/rotation option because I don't think he's good enough for a team like ours who is chasing Europe next season. I don’t get how he is overrated ? Contributed to 30% of goals to a team that is about to relegated. If we sign him it means Unai rates him. I don’t get why fans would be upset with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Are fans serious talking about where Asensio will play as if it’s going to happen? It’s crazy season already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t talking about Asensio. That ain’t going to happen. I meant players from Europe in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels too soon for this kind of signing and if it does happen it means we are blowing our wage structure out the water. It ain’t my money so great but it feels a bit dangerous. Maybe it’s inevitable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WallisFrizz Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I would think the Asensio links to us are just to generate some interest for other clubs. But then he’s a Mendes client and I think we have a good relationship with him at the moment so don’t think he’d mess us about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
