Best man is a villa fan, this is his view......Davis is a champ player. Won’t score but will run his nads off and let others have space. Workhorse. Philogene we would have kept but we’ll have a buy back. Another more exciting player but with high workrate. Just needs to work on final end product. He’s the more exciting of the two but Davis is someone who’d stay long term
I know, I know.....but football can be fickle and no matter how great acun is I fear a reading or derby situation if things go wrong
No suggestion of that so far - he's actively investing. Obvs no one has a crystal ball but you can't go through life anticipating the worst when there's no evidence something is on the cards. I wouldn't leave the house if that was the case.
Both spent well beyond their means chasing the golden chalice of promotion. Our owners have constantly acknowledged about the limitations we have
I actually think Connolly is the best finisher at the club. It’s not easy to score one-on-ones; takes real skill and composure. We saw last season that Óscar and Longman fluffed a few one-on-ones by either hitting them too close to the keeper or putting them wide.
We’ve had quite a shake-up this summer in terms of forwards. Don’t think many expected it. Tetteh’s gone and Óscar, Allahyar and Longman will probably go as well with the new signings supposedly coming in.
A goal or assist in every 4 apps over 88 championship games. It's not hugely prolific but aint too shabby either for someone who 'won't score'.
Baz Cooper has mentioned a sell-on clause as being the final piece but nothing about a buy-back, not that he'll know or publish every element of negotiations.
Good luck to any of our signings of course but out of all the options of the extra villa player I think davis is the one that excited me least
Been a key player in a promoted side and is proven at this level. Think it's a solid enough one if it goes through.
From what I have read, he seems perfect for the system LR is playing. High energy and will press. That’s not something that Oscar does particularly well. I’m really happy if we sign both. Lots of competition and strength in depth.
5 in 15 at Forest 7 in 34 at Watford For someone who will give all to the team and suit our style and offers a goal threat, he’s not too shabby!
