2023/24 Amadou Onana

[SJB]

We've had Villa's pants down at that price. Another season like the last and we'd be looking to loan him to a Turkish club who'd pay half his wages for the remainder of his contract.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Think he struggles with the concept in all honesty

If we sold Branthwaite for £5m he’d say the same

When are we selling Branthwaite for 5 mill? Or are you just throwing out pointless hypotheticals that won’t happen?

Yes my child?

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

He’s a good player, no doubt - just doesn’t put in the shift that dyche requires imo

This is the Brighton model in action, I thought this forum would be overjoyed.

Onana has a bright future, even though he was average here, I think he has the chance to become a CL level player.

The frustrating element of this is that again, the DOF & manager are not been backed in the market and need to sell another one of our better players this window like Richarlison & Gordon before him.

The Friedkin Group are putting money in to keep the stadium build progressing as it benefits them/future club revenue, yet they appear to not be putting in the spondooley's to improve the squad.

As things stand, we're in another bottom 6 battle and Dyche / Thelwell will take the flack by the fans when they have one arm tied behind their backs.

Come on Friedkin, stop the selling of our best talent & invest in our playing squad. No point having a world class stadium in BMD if we have a squad full of turkeys.

We need to convince the likes of Branthwaite that we are NOT a selling club.

 

[RomanReigns]

Don’t understand how villa keep spending money

Swear they buy like 50 players every season

Kidding yourselves lads, just like those that thought we were getting £80m for Onana.

I for one didnt think we would get what we paid for him back to be honest. Ss for Braithwaite just don't think so now unless he starts pushing for for it.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Let’s be honest, if he was as good as he thinks he is then PSG or Arsenal would’ve come in for him. He isn’t the finished product yet, and Villa are paying that fee because they’re optimistic he’ll fulfil that potential. I suspect he will, but I wouldn’t say it’s a given based on what we’ve seen of him.

Friedkin hasn’t taken over yet, how hard is it really for you lot to understand that? He’s not responsible for any transfer business, if anything the Iranian dope should be putting his hand in, he’s kept enough back surely after using loans the past 2/3 years

 

[BainesontoastNEW]

Classic "could Everton be the club that helps him realise his potential?" conundrum. Short answer is: we tried, and he's undoubtedly shown promise along the way, but we can't afford to wait around with him.

Take the fee and invest.

 

[blue in oxford]

think thats a good fee and of the big 4 the best one to let go

 

[ah11984]

He’s certainly a polarising player isn’t he. Been massively underwhelmed by most of his performances here personally.

You’d think, if £50m is such a bad deal for us, according to some on here, that the absolute elite clubs would be interested too.

 

[xchurch Villa]

People are gonna be shocked when he starts week in week out for Villa it seems. He's a better player than Douglas Luiz

Think you will find he has been brought in to cover/compete with Kamara not Luiz

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Just reading the Villa forum. They think we will be livid at them taking our star player. Erm no lads. Enjoy the slide tackles and strolling about though.

I'm not sure how you would define star player but if I was asked to list my top 5 Everton performers of last season he wouldn't make the list.
