Neither am I. I think that Europa League final hattrick is living too fresh on everyone's memory and the reason he's become overrated. His spells at Everton, Leicester and Fulham were all very unconvincing. He's suited to being the main man at Atlanta but how much can you read into that! Very different to playing in the prem every week where teams will mostly be sitting against us. Is he a huge upgrade on Brennan Johnson who's goal numbers are just as good if even better? I'm not convinced.

Savinho, Semenyo, Ndiaye would all be far better picks but probably all out of reach now. Maybe Lookman is the best of the rest but its so underwhelming!
Or N'Obodie
 
Is Rogers actually the level we need? I admit to not regularly watching him but was really not impressed with his goals last season - the majority are just jammy loose balls in the box. Which is a skill, but not always repeatable.

It's not like Villa are a powerhouse - they have yet to score in 2 matches.
 
The fat Aussie broke everyone

Nah, our lack of squad depth and amateur medical department did that.

I’m going to keep fighting that corner for Frank’s sake because if we don’t add depth to this squad and Frank is expected to stay in the Carabao and CL, we will get the same injury issues again. I don’t want to start seeing another coach thrown under the bus for this club operating like amateurs.
 
Mainoo could be a good idea, if there's no ten and we trust Tel and Odobert to push on

Sarr/Bergvall/Bentancur/Gray/Palhinha + Mainoo

Johnson/Odobert/Tel/Kudus

Richarlison/Solanke

he's better than Eze, also more unrealistic. We're never signing him so pointless anyway
 
These types of posts really make me angry

They don't mention his bald head (an integral feature of who Levy is)

True, but being bald myself that statement would hit a little too close to home for my liking

So as we are getting closer to the window Slamming shut, we are now working on deals that are considered very hard to pull off? I think its all bullshit, we have shut up shop so to speak and are not letting anything get out to the press, I think we get 2 more in but it won't be anyone we are linked to in the press

Those of you moaning about Downling and Rio Nghumoa, saying we have no academy talent, Luca Williams-Barnett may end up better than both. Goal and assist against Bristol Rovers today and just did this

Expect a debut this season

Agreed, he played against Dowman last season and ran the show.

We have players, but we don't give them a chance.

I've been saying we should forget about chasing these players who will cost us £50M, and integrate Donley into the squad.
His football IQ is as good as anyone we've been linked with. He needs a chance to show what he can do. And that doesn't mean shoving him at LB again.

He was superb against City in the FA Cup last year.
Luca also has ability to. What they lack is first team experience.

It goes back to the saying: need experience to get a job, but no one willing to take a risk to give them experience.

And then there is lookmans penalty for Fulham against West Ham
