He's a class act. Watched him every week at FC Nantes. He stood out in a poor side.

Cant see DCL getting any change out of this fella and Big Bad Bassey.

Say what you want about their targets, but Villa are getting them in early. Obviously we did the same in the Summer of the Number Tens, so not always an unmitigated positive, I grant you but still must be nice not to have that transfer thread panic at 11:59 on deadline day.

Villa spending all this money, 5 to 1 to go down, lol

Did Villa spend all the Grealish cash last summer?

They did.

Too early to say this - like way too early.

Signings in the 28-30 range on big money are more likely to go wrong than right. Like they came 14th last year. I dont think they are investing wisely.

Thats fine, but a rebuild will be needed again in no more than 3 seasons. I dont see a top 6/7 side there, I really don't.

Well not really? How old do you think the rest of their team is?

Not sure what's happened this Summer but you're all going very weird about footballer's ages.

I just dont think they are doing as good business as everyone thinks. And they seem to be paying very high wages. Its a high risk strategy.

All teams need a mix of youth & experience. I would be happy if we'd made their signings this Summer.

Villa have gone full Everton.

Arsenal close to signing Morata it seems, one down on the DCL list.

As in Alvaro? But he is not very good
