Diaby is open to a move back to a Champions League club after 18 months at Saudi side Al-Ittihadwww.independent.co.uk
Meh
Frank said he didn’t want to fill the squad with average players and buy for the sake of it. This would come in that category.
Not fast enough to catch up to the ball...no thanks.
I question Frank's view on everything, football-wise, and as we evidently recruited a very average manager (for our needs), I would ask what's different.

Sounds a good policy though doesn’t it?
We probably wouldn’t be in the mess we are in now if we had just bought better players.
The policy might be sound but some of our players would probably look a lot better with a manager who oversaw something resembling progressive football.
I don't believe Frank's best makes even very good players perform to their optimum. I don't see it because his messaging, demeanour and general aura don't convince.
I think you’ve given yourself away right here.
You’re not going to get past the fact that he had a successful career at our rivals. No more to say.
He did go back to Hajduk and planned to retire there...
But then he ended up in a big row with the big wigs there and left on bad terms.
FFP I think. I wonder if the Villa forums have a thread on him for insight. Inconsistent is my memory. A shit Aaron Lennon.
I remember him as a fun spark in that Villa team during his one season with them. 10 goals and 11 assists in all competitions before he got flipped to Saudi. Not to mention 49 goals and 47 assists over 4 seasons in Leverkusen.

You could make Harry Winks look world class in a YouTube video. Seen plenty of him at Villa and he was so bad, that he lost his place to outcast Leon Bailey.
Hell nah.
He's made a good job of doing that thus far into his reign. Xavi looks like the only decent player of the lot of them brought in.
Intresting stuff wouldn't be totally against it ...still think we need an actual goal scorer.
My Villa supporting mate said he was a huge disappointment and was happy to see him go.
It's subjective.
Yeah. He's not that one star offensive player but you can see why we would be interested in him.
I agree that there’s certain positions we’d struggle to find a meaningful upgrade for in the January window, however we’ve got some serious gaps in this side where even mid players would be a substantial improvement.
I probably rate Gallagher higher than others on here, and think he’s a massive improvement on Bentancur, but maybe we could’ve used that money on a player with a profile that we don’t have but need.
For years have we been crying out for midfielder who can make progressive passes, but instead we keep buying the same level of players performing the same function.
Is it really that hard to find a winger who is a decent finisher and also be able to manufacture their own chances.
At this rate im willing to go and get another young winger if we're not willing to pay the money for a senoir player.
Mika Godts anyone...who's clearly too good for the eredivisie.
