I missed it was the RM Asensio that was at PSG. Not bothered one but he went Villa.They’ve got to deal with the Rashford circus. A high price to pay when Emery ends up leaving him on the bench because he isn’t pulling up any trees.
Poor old TOZ is having a bit of a mare.
I know we’ve bought for the system/future, but Ange has been backed better than any other manager since Eric took over.Assuming Tel stays for £45 mill, that is ball park £400 mill spent since Ange arrived.
I think if you are signing kids from the bigger clubs in the prem and the fee is zero to negligible it rarely ends up them being anything special . As I said Gray was 40 million from Leeds, cheap home grown 18 year olds are usually cheap for a reason
I know we’ve bought for the system/future, but Ange has been backed better than any other manager since Eric took over.
Next season, assuming he survives, is his biggest ever. Have a feeling he’ll be here.
Was as aggressive as Tel. Levy just loves kids. Cant help himself.I agree but I think 40 million for Gray was quite an aggressive purchase, but it’s far from the norm
They were already running at 92% wages to turnover even before this window.Villa have spent a lot. Remember a few years back under Lambert one of papers said 'villa have 4m warchest'. More like a tea-chest. Times change.![]()
'... you'll never sing that".They were already running at 92% wages to turnover even before this window.
Palmer was not "elite" when Chelski bought him, though - but he very soon became one. If he was "elite" at the time of Man City sold him he'd cost almost the double (it is rumoured that Chelski have received an offer of £150m: European giants 'tipped to make £150m bid' for Cole Palmer as Chelsea star drops masterclass vs Tottenham)
Why are 3 people liking this nonsense? What is described above is simply a loan - how does it differ from a loan if no one has any clause that forces the other side to do something?Key points about "option to buy" loans:
- Choice lies with the loaning club:
The club that has the player on loan decides whether to activate the option to buy or not.
- No obligation to sell:
The parent club is not obligated to sell the player even if the option to buy is triggered, they can still choose to not sell.
Villa's transfer strategy is mental and totally unsustainable, they've already reached their ceiling until they can increase their revenue.
They've certainly been playing funny buggers with other clubs to all get round PSR but that wage bill... That's gonna sting at some point.
He’s an irritating little nerd, but who’s the muppet? Him or the 2m subscribers ensuring he makes a reasonable living from his nonsense?!
Thank goodness he isn’t Spurs is all I can say!![]()
No, they were 92% last season. CL this season brings in a big spike, especially to Villa with 40k capacity. It’s also clearly a speculate to accumulate strategy, gambling on making Europe again, going further in the CL and the associate commercial uplifts that likely brings.They were already running at 92% wages to turnover even before this window.
