Im indifferent to Davies to be honest, wouldn’t be upset if he went, especially if we got some cash, but equally I’m happy if he stays as a squad player if he can do a job like he did today.

All the front line were hopeless......that is why I hope we get more than 1 back up/main striker in (if we can afford it). That is what lost us the game today....Bluntness)
Dont think we would get much cash for him but if low wage then use him as LAST RESORT
I don't know for certain if they would but obviously they're better players than what we have.
I just think we look horrendous creatively because the 'creative' players we have are, frankly, crap.

On another day I’m confident that result could have been reversed. Not much between the sides really.
If we continue with 2 wing backs then Gordon, Gray and McNeil are wasted. We’re basically forcing 3 natural wide players into narrow avenues in the middle of the park with no option in front to play it to. The flip side of that is the back 3 looked quite good and probably kept it at 1-0 for time in the 2nd half.
One of the above should have been off way earlier for Onana and moved Iwobi further forward, who was the only one trying to get on the ball and move it up the pitch.
Feel sorry for Onana on the 2nd goal, but at the time it looked like he didn’t have a yellow shirt within 20 yards of him. He did very well for our goal though.
A forward gets us something from that game. We need one in before next week. If we haven’t, then serious questions need to be asked why!

Agree with all that.

Agree about the two in midfield, we're going to have to play 5-3-2 or 3-5-2, however you want to say it because 2 in the middle of the park isn't working. Still.
He must have a value of £10-15m Or am I dreaming?
I’m sure any further signings we make will push him even further down the pecking order but I still think he’s a decent squad player. Did a good job in my opinion today.
Yeah but he doesn't play for us.
I'm sure Lukaku would have scored a few too... or Haaland.
He's been sold. We're left with three wide players who just aren't very good.
I would be ecstatic over 10-15m seriously
3 centre halfs was not needed today ....... left us light in midfield ......

There’s a complete lack of creativity in this squad and bringing Gana back will do nothing to improve that. Even if we had a decent striker we’re not going to be creating loads of chances for him. Villa weren’t that much better but they do have some creative players. Never mind not getting a Richarlison replacement, we haven’t even adequately replaced Sigurdsson or Rodriquez.

Iwobi miles ahead of everyone. Myko never takes on his man wide doesn’t fit for what we are trying to achieve.
We are in serious crap if we do not sign a forward or two.
