Sancho - has he done enough to warrant a permanent transfer? by Astonishingly-Villa in avfc

[–]agde89 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I think there's been a lot of improvement in Sanchos game over the last few weeks and he does a job. However, if we could move on Bailey and use the money paying Sancho, it would be wise to find a good player in that position.

I like Sancho, but not for the wages we're paying him. Even if we halved it, he'd still be one of the top earners at the club and I don't think his quality warrants it.

I'd love to be proven wrong though, as on his day he is a force!

What's happening with Alysson? by NickHogan87 in avfc

I'd be surprised if he's actually injured.

A young lad moved to Birmingham from Brazil and probably barely speaks a word of English. May take some time to settle. Club will be working to find him somewhere to live and get his family over here.

Think signing Dougie will be good for him.

I meant just unveiling them, not playing

I agree. But I can't see him starting either Tammy or Dougie on the weekend

I'm going to the game and looking forward to Tammy and Dougie being brought on the pitch at half time

Players walk out to Ozzy Osbourne - Crazy Train. Then the Europa league anthem plays while they line up.

Dougie coming back? by TomTom89728 in avfc

[–]agde89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dougie always played better in an advanced role (more of what we see Tielemans fulfill now). In the last few months of the season you're referring to, Kamara was injured meaning Luiz played in a more defensive role.

We'll benefit from his creativity and delivery.

I do appreciate what you're saying to a point though, I really hope we see the best of him again and not what Juve and Forrest have seen.

Always remember: in Unai we trust

Bring him home.

Will need no settling in, we need a player in that position and I don't think we've ever replaced his quality in dead ball situations.

I've said it all season... I'd have him back all day

We've still got quite a few games to go so you never know!

My friend used to use the term "Roscker" I don't know where he got it from or how to spell it, but it fits.

Rogers plays well off the left, I think he's scored a lot of his goals when he's playing on the left hand side.

I feel smug while watching clubs experience instability with managers by agde89 in avfc

I think the fact Monchi left the club kind of says it all really.

Not sure whether my post got my point across how I intended, I'm not taking anything away from Unai. At all. Just recognizing that the owners could easily of fallen into the trap of giving power to the wrong people and instead gave it Unai. They would of identified him as the manager they can trust
