I think you’re right, even if we somehow stay up, he’ll probably leave too sadly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd maybe have a 1 or 2% chance he'd hang around if you stumbled on a time machine that showed him lifting the Champions League trophy as Villa captain at the head of a team of modern Galacticos, but that's about it. He's off. He almost certainly knows where to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's off. He almost certainly knows where to. We need to find a way of replacing him, it’ll either turn out to be a rip roaring success or a complete failure. He’ll leave with my blessing but no player is irreplaceable, I think it might galvanise us and make us a better team if and when he does leave, we’re so reliant on him, it’ll allow the other players to step up. Don’t get me wrong, he’s a fantastic player, so naturally gifted but it’s a team game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think city at a push if they see him as the sane / silva replacement, I don't see it at utd if they get sancho, spurs won't pay the money, Chelsea don't need him, Leicester I'm not having, arsenal maybe but I don't see him as their type of signing (they seem to be pacey and foreign) Abroad is hard to tell but the English tax will scare most off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splashing 100m on Sancho and looking at a central defender and another striker, I don’t think they’ll be in for a Jack unless he’s mega cheap. With Sancho they’ll already have those creative attacking playing positions covered and need to spend money elsewhere that has been spoken about by OGS. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, from a Woodward perspective I can see it, young English incredibly marketable and an element of peacocking about it, from OGS I can't, they have other needs in that squad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start to do this more lad. I personally wouldn't want Lingard anywhere near the Villa team and would be in dismay if he somehow arrived at B6. i don't care one bit how games he has played for Man Utd or England.I don't rate him. 4-corner model and my own eyes and brain tell' me everything i need to know about him. Jesse wouldn't want come to Villa anyway. Really interesting.

United has been rumoured for months so obviously something in it (just like Barry to Liverpool was rumoured although of course that didn't happen in the end). I think if Pogba goes he fits into their team like a glove but all transfer plans are out the window with the virus. He could play as a number 10 there (Bruno could be moved back slightly into box to box midfielder) or indeed in the front 3 which let's not forget he's been playing half a season here. I'm not that convinced they'll get Sancho given he plays for a better club atm. It's easy to forget Dortmund play in CL every season infront of higher attendance than Man. United even if they don't have the worldwide appeal so don't see the rush for Sancho to come back to premier league. He's from London aswell so I think Chelsea would see him as an ideal signing with their transfer ban lifted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Sancho they’ll already have those creative attacking playing positions covered and need to spend money elsewhere that has been spoken about by OGS. Up to xmas lingard and Andreas Pereria were regularly starting in their front 4. When we got the 2-2 up there their wide options were Mata who's way past his best now and Daniel James so it's not like they've got incredible depth upfront particularly as Rashford has been injured for four months of this season. He'd start regularly there no problem. I'd probably do a deal if we got 40m + Mason Greenwood + Daniel James on season long loans. Given our dealings over last decade I have little confidence we'd replace Grealish with anyone good and would probably waste 20m + on the new Nzogbia or Stephen Ireland. At least with someone like James he's pretty rapid in the final third which we lack. Greenwood looks a very good prospect, decent goals to game ratio this season for 18 year old.
