Personally, I think a competent player in the middle and more two up front is a must because, as it is now, I think we'll struggle to score goals.

wioth Lampard's comments about the nr 6 having gto be a bit more defensively would that rule out Winks ? I mean it is clear the nr 6 needs to be comfortable at the ball, but Winks is not great defensively. So a Nr 6, MGW and Cornet please

Doucoure is better than Luis mate, and we dint know what Kamara will be like yet.
DCL is miles better than Ings. Pickford is better than Martinez. Theres also a case, when fit, Mina would be in the team too, but hes never fit.
Most teams have issues with depth. I dont think Villas squad is much better than ours. Like if you take an average of the last 2 seasons, I'm pretty sure we would have more points. I'm not sure how that tallies with you being miles better?

It does though mate.
DCL is a fair bit younger and his best 2 seasons in the top flight are 15 and 21 goals. Watkins best 2 seasons are 16 and 11.
I think Watkins is also a really good player, and offers a lot off the ball (as DCL does) but DCL stats are much much better.

Massive pissing contest. Can't you PM each other or do in their forum. It's all irrelevant largely.

It's not really mate.
I am just making a point of order, that DCLs stats are far superior to Watkins.

Get a room then. Unless we're buying Watkins of course. Or put in the DCL thread

Even when injured and out of form in a terrible team last season DCL scored more goals per game than Watkins, and the previous two seasons when DCL was fit he was scoring at a rate way above anything Watkins has managed at that level.
And I like Watkins, good player.

Villa fan would do well to reflect on their own business. I don't think it's as bad as what we did, but I don't find it in any way impressive either.

Villa will be in the exact same position as us FFP wise in 2-3 seasons; they’ve spent huge amounts on players aged 28+ with no resale value and whacked them all on huge wages. Disaster waiting to happen.
As far as we go, we need more creativity and a mid who can tackle, centre mid should be our priority. I want 2 in. One who can tackle and one who can pass.
DCL scored 21 league goals in a season ?

Theyve spent the best part of 200m, and came 14th last season. Even when we messed up, we were still top half.

Why are we so concerned about Villa’s prospects this coming season?
Personally I couldn’t give a flying one.
If people wish to discuss this subject can’t they please start a thread for that express purpose.
This is supposed to be a dedicated transfer thread after all.
Anyway I see that reports are suggesting that Cornet is far from certain with Burnley wanting more dough and Everton allegedly preferring a loan.
Also reports suggesting barcodes and spuds have not given up on signing Gordon.
