Aston Villa rumours 2

13 Jul 2024 11:23:08
Rumoured we are close to signing Amadou Onana from Everton.
Any thoughts?

13 Jul 2024 11:51:11
Here We Go lol

13 Jul 2024 12:26:05
Excellent statement of intent

13 Jul 2024 12:30:46
Onana wouldn’t have been my first choice, Ndidi would have been a steal on a free, but I would have preferred us trying for the likes of Koopmeiners or Ruben Neves I think either would come cheaper than Onana

13 Jul 2024 13:07:31
I think £50m is a lot for him, especially as that Midfield is starting to get a little crowded with players who would expect to be regular starters.
He's young though and if Emery can sort out his atrocious passing and calm him down a little bit then he could prove to be good value.

13 Jul 2024 13:46:27
Emery will improve him no doubt it’s just a matter of how much, we have a lot of games ahead of us this season, we are getting to the point of 2 very good players for every position which is where we want to be to stay in the top 4. writing could be on the wall for Ramsey now and looking like it would be a cash deal as we wouldn’t need Lo Celso.

12 Jul 2024 15:29:05
Chambers off to Cardiff by the sounds of it. It's a shame Coutinho has gone on loan and we didn't manage to dump his contract in the process 🤔

11 Jul 2024 20:29:50
Rumours are diabys off to saudi 60 mil surely that has to BS he's worth more than that and is a good player if it true and unai wants him sold then we must have a big player lined up to replace him

12 Jul 2024 03:03:47
Players don’t seem to be commanding the same fees as the last 2 seasons Jonny I honestly don’t think he’s worth the 50 we paid for him just yet, good against the lesser sides but struggled against the better defences, hard to see how he’s worth more than 60 when you see what’s out there nowadays for 60 million, look at luiz we all thought he was worth 80-100

09 Jul 2024 12:37:03
I see Spurs are allegedly back for Ramsey and another unnamed Villa player offering Lo Celso plus cash in exchange. I wonder if the unnamed player is Duran? I hope we don't let Ramsey go he's young and more than decent. If PSR pressures have gone away albeit temporarily then given the amount of games we are going to have he should have no problem with getting game time.

09 Jul 2024 14:39:40
Jj won't be sold unless 60/70mil comes our way lord

09 Jul 2024 17:22:15
LOTM I think Duran is going to West Ham.

09 Jul 2024 17:35:58
Id drive him there his attitude is bad, has potential but doesn't want to learn and work hard to become a better player, that's the problem with young players of today

09 Jul 2024 18:28:16
If we wanted Lo Celso we’d buy him and at a reduced price because his contract is up next year, I meant to say would already of bought him, it’s typical NewsNow click bait 🙄

LOTM I think you might of misread the article, supposedly they are willing to offer LO Celco plus another unnamed player plus cash for Ramsey.

If this is true then which other player would you guys accept?
I say give us bissoma, Lo Celso and 20 million or sod off, we don’t need their bottlers 😂

10 Jul 2024 07:48:25
Oops, I think you are right Whack. I agree that if they want to throw in another player Bissouma would be the one.

10 Jul 2024 09:35:12
Lo Celso will go at the 11th hour of deadline day for £10M or less because he can sign a pre contract to abroad (where he’ll end up) in Jan

09 Jul 2024 11:15:59
Apparently a player-plus-cash deal is underway with Spurs for Ramsey with lo Celso potentially heading to us 🤔

08 Jul 2024 18:16:23
Villa apparently open talks with chiesa according to reports would be great signing, also smith rowe been put on transfer list wouldn't mind him at villa

02 Jul 2024 23:53:15
Sounds like Coutinho is set to leave for Vasco da Gama by the end of this week.

03 Jul 2024 10:29:58
Why don’t they just release him instead of the loan? Do we have to subsidise his wages?

03 Jul 2024 15:21:38
He has a fixed contract, if we release him we have to pay 100% of his wages for the remainder of his contract unless he agrees to less.
At least with a loan, some of those wages are covered so we're not at a complete loss.

06 Jul 2024 09:47:06
According to reports on the BBC today, it sounds like we are trying to get the contract terminated as part of the agreement 🤔

01 Jul 2024 23:11:22
Reports suggest we lost 8.5 million of the luiz money to city for a sell on clause. 🤷‍♂️ here's hoping the players we got in the deal turn out to be gems or it will look like a poor deal.

02 Jul 2024 07:13:02
You win some you lose some. Whilst we may have had to let Luiz go for less than we would have liked, financially we did very well on the Kellyman deal, and if we get £40 million plus for Duran I would say we are ahead of the curve. Add to that picking up Barkley for circa £5 million I would say overall we aren’t doing too badly.

02 Jul 2024 18:53:43
I wonder how much we're paying him. At Luton, he was on £30k per week so if we've got him for close to that, we've picked up a bargain.

28 Jun 2024 21:23:22
1 player that would be good 2nd striker is moukoko from dortmund 18 yrs old loads of potential would be great signing not sure dortmund would want to sell but would rather have him them david from lille, the german kid max bier looks class aswell hope rumours are true

28 Jun 2024 20:17:39
Maatsen deal done and dusted. Personally I thought this wouldn't happen until after 30/06 due to PSR but obviously the club know what they are doing. I presume in the next 48 hours will see a number of outgoings.

28 Jun 2024 22:42:51
On TV today they said that the money we paid for Maatsen is over the period of his contract so the PSR figure for this financial period is £37.5 ÷ 5 year deal = £7.5m, whereas all of the figures for outgoing players is recorded for us. Quite confusing, not illegal but is immoral.

29 Jun 2024 06:38:47
They wouldn't be charging £7.5m to this period as that is the charge for a whole year.
Maatsen will have been our asset for 2-3 days so will probably have a charge for 1 month at just over £600k.
The media are underselling the impact of these transfers.

29 Jun 2024 09:12:34
Didn't realise it was broken down to monthly payments.

29 Jun 2024 10:37:26
Accounting doesn't work on a payments basis, it works on an accruals basis.
Regardless of when you pay, you record the benefit when you receive it.
In terms of a long term asset, it is depreciated or amortised evenly over the life of the asset (5 years for a 5 year contract) . Part years are pro-rated.
