Summer transfer window 2023

[davids]

Yeah, I can, maybe not every game immediately but these clubs can afford to spend big on young players who aren't expected to play every week. I think in a better team with more creative players around him he'd do very well- he does a lot of things on the defensive side very well. There's a reason at a young age he already does more than warm the bench for Belgium.

But will they pay the type of profit that we'd need to buy more seats for BMD?

Keane, Godfrey and Holgate have over 500 Premier Leagues between them, which to me suggests they are Premier League standard.

Well they’re not.

Well they’re not.

Ok, sound, we have 1 CB, but we have ZERO forwards.

If you dont score goals, you are in serious trouble.

Are you not including your in this?

I agree we have to prioritise forwards. But if we go into this season with our current options at CB then our chances of being relegated skyrocket.

Lads, Origi is available.

Looks like he has put a bit of timber on over the summer.

No sensible poster should count on DCL.

If he stays fit, then its happy days, but hes proven for the last 2 years that he cant stay fit.

Said exactly the same when we were lining him up in January, on the pitch he did really well under Emery and it seemed a no brainer deal for Villa, so why wasn’t he touching him?

Tbh I’d be surprised if any club was keen on a mandatory buy clause given the character concerns. Milan don’t even really need him, useful cover for them on a loan but I doubt they’d want to sign up for 3 or 4 years at a cost of 25m plus.

As you say, he played really well under Emery and I was excited at the prospect of him joining Villa but the lack of interest in him and the fact that he is available at a relatively low price puts me off him and suggests it is more about the character than the footballing ability

True. That standard covers an extremely wide range; it doesn't necessarily mean good

Is Nketiah going to get a look in at Arsenal this season? He must down the pecking order, particularly if Balogun stays at Arsenal. He could be a cheeky loan signing

I’ll happily take Cameron Archer, thanks

He will be ok bench warmer

I count it at the absolute bare minimum, as being able to get a game for the top sides in the Championship and be among one of their better players. None of those players do that.
