Probably for a move to LaLiga though as I think that was touted a few weeks ago. Odd purchase from Villa if it's true.

 

They didn’t really want him in first place was to balance out the Luiz deal and they’d hope to cash in later.

Been very good for Valencia.

 

As soon as we are mentioned looking at a player we seem to get lots of ‘Burnley, Wolves, West Ham etc’ are also looking at him posts.

We may be favourites to go back down but could easily bounce back up and I can see how that can be a downside for players we want but we have a huge advantage over every other premiership club.

We can offer first team football.

Apart from LeFee, all positions are up for grabs.
Mayenda, Hume, Cirkin will probably start but if we’re targeting players in the £20million range, none of these 3 would be guaranteed starters.
Mundle and Ballard would have to fight for their start.
Neil and Patterson are currently starters but given competition of an incoming £20million player they may well be subs.
The rest are subs.

All the other teams have better players than us so a £20million player would likely not start for them.
Come to us and you’ll play.

 

that is one expensive surname

 

Fab agrees

 

That sounds more than palatable.

Massive credit and bollocks from the club digging in.

 

Good deal IMO.

 

Aye good deal for all parties, been a pleasure watching him develop here, go smash it Jobe

 

well done speakman played an absolute blinder

 

Fair play to Phil Smith. Not often they get stuff but it seems the club have briefed on the fee

 

Aye. With 15% sell on we all want him to.

I think he will, I can see him going for £60-80mill in 2-3 years.

 

Thank you Jobe and thank you Mark Bellingham, Doddsy, Speakman etc for the gift of being part of his career

 

Now THAT is how you put paid to any ‘piss taking parties’

 

Now stop ****ing about and get it spent speakman

 

We’ve got one hell of a war chest

the ability to offer first team football with notable gaps in the 11

a coach whose style is naturally aligned with how we should be playing in order to stay in this league

The nature of this deal has me believing we can turn this energy into similar incoming deals

 

God, it’s so nice to have adults in charge of our football club. Can you imagine what we’d have sold him for during the Short era?

 

We’d have absolutely let his contract run out

 

Good ****ing deal that and a good sell on

well done the club and good luck jobe
