beasley14 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Didn't think we'd spend 50m on someone like Onana in fairness. Decent signing and shows we must have some money to spend because I doubt this would be the player we spend the bulk of it on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 It's when Dyche first came and they beat the league leaders Arsenal 1-0 that he totally bossed the midfield I thought wow what a player. He hasn't shown that consistency at Everton but they don't exactly play through the midfield either so it's not good to show whst he can do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A injury free Kamara is, for me, in the top 4 of current Villa players. Emi M. Torres. Kamara. Watkins. Konsa and Bailey just on the periphery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow if he’s half the player Viera was, we’ll have some player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightdm00 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 55 minutes ago, bobzy said: Spoke to one tonight (good friend of mine, at a school fundraising event) and he said Onana seems a bit raw. When he’s on it, he’s amazing but when he isn’t, games can pass him by. He did mention he thought Emery would be the kind of manager to get the best out of him; didn’t say anything about Dyche being bad at all - just that he thought he’d be a good fit working with Emery. He also thought Onana would be going to a ‘bigger club’ - “oh, only Villa?” I think he said. Sounds exactly how we would have described a 22 year old Douglas Luiz. The kid has potential and we have the elite coaching staff that is going to bring it all out of him. You can teach many positive traits on the training pitch but you can't teach height and physical ability. Onana has that in spades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if he wants to but I think the rumours were starting about teams like Liverpool wanting him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a player leaves fans will tell themselves it’s no big loss and was he really that good anyway? We saw some of that here when Luiz left. Good point.

Marka Ragnos Posted July 13 VT Supporter Share Posted July 13 I think he's somewhat in the mould of a Patrick Vieira or Papa Bouba Diop. Versatile, intensely physical, and tall DM who isn't afraid to pop off a shot if the opportunity arises. I don't see him much at all like Dougie in terms of style of play, apart from his passes, but I think he can cover part of what Dougie did. He's a lot more imposing and obviously someone who goes after players on runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
