Kamara won’t be in the initial squad, he’ll be added when we can make three changes in the new year.

You can't update squad until March now I think after the knock out play offs (ie end of the old group stages before round of 16)

As things stand, this is our Champions League squad. 

No room for Digne, Moreno, Dendoncker and Chambers or Gauchi

I've got more chance of being in the squad than LOLsen

Can’t say I am fully versed on his Villarreal side at the time. I know they had the likes of Capoue etc who didn’t overly impress in the prem. 

But that Villa midfield is weak as ****. I know it’s not the correct setup etc etc… but it’s still weak. Actually makes me a little bit  to not see Dougie there anymore. 

Without Kamara this is my view as well.  At times we do get bullied in the middle of the park.  Current signings are 6ft plus so Unai must see the same?  Definitely think we will sign another CM who will be a starter and won’t be bullied.

I thought so too but apparently one season left. He’ll most likely be the no 2 again.

Unless he’s released or sold, one more season to go…

Yep the only I didn’t know was whether it was after the league but before knock out playoffs or after the playoffs and have seen nothing to clarify it.  Either way I can’t see us including Kamara in the initial squad because he’s likely to miss at least six CL games so I think we have a spare squad place for a new player (not necessarily a DM).

I wonder if we’d go for a younger player like Gabri Veiga, Javi Guerra, or hugo larsson or look for more experienced players for the centre of the park. I also like the look of Baleba from Brighton but he’d cost too much.

Would we have any chance with De Ligt? Should be joining a CL club, not Manure

And? 

How else are we going to beat Walsall if we don’t have a team? It’s crucial we get off to a good start and get the 3 points.

Love to @sne.

We are talking about the same Kalvin Phillips that Villa tried to sign under Smith but he turned Villa down?

The same Kalvin Phillips that played for England in the WC and Euro's helping England get to the Euro final?

Or maybe the same Kalvin Philips that was signed arguably by the best manager around for 45m?

Is that the same Kalvin Philips or are you referring to Tom Hanks?

Have a breather chaps, its July 2nd.

Watch videos of fat people falling over. Mucho laughs. 

1st quote is about Kalvin Phillips pre 2023 and 2nd could be about the current Kalvin Phillips 

[burchy]

We’re talking that we need DM cover for Kamara and to help Enzo settle. We also need CB cover and RB cover. 

Surely Geertruida would a clever bit of business for us as he can cover the defensive RB slot, allowing Konsa to move across to his best position. He could cover the CB position and allow a more attacking RB to a slot in and rest Konsa. He could also cover the DM role too. 

I’ve been suggesting Fofana and Mosquera for a combined 50m-55m whereas Geertruida would probably be 30m-35m.
