Been told that we're looking at Oscar Mingueza who we were after in January, can play centre half or right back, out of contract at Celta Vigo next summer

It’s amazing what you hear during the transfer window in terms of who we are looking at whose coming/going etc. I’ve been told that despite everything heard to the contrary Asensio will be a Villa player come the 1st of September but I think I’m going to take a leaf out of Whack’s book and I’ll believe it when/if it happens
2.) 09 Aug 2025 01:02:23
Assensio doesn’t make sense to me but I wouldn’t be overly surprised if it happened, we don’t see what Emery sees. who would you rather have back between Assensio luiz or grealish?
3.) 09 Aug 2025 07:04:49
I like all 3 as players but we have enough cover in terms of defensive midfield positions in my view so I don’t think Luiz would be a priority, and it’s a toss up between Grealish and Asensio but I would slightly favour the latter as I think he is more clinical in front of goal.

Jack for me 100% ~ bring him back!
5.) 12 Aug 2025 15:14:39
Jack signed for Everton on loan

A few reports saying we're after Opienda from Leipzig, that'd be a statement signing and then some

Seen Samu aghehowa from Porto mentioned aswel, both would cost a bit, you would have to imagine if we were buying one of them that it means we’re going to lose Watkins
2.) 30 Jul 2025 20:29:36
I wonder if we sign either Openda or Aghehowa whether Watkins goes to Utd with Garnacho and a cash adjustment coming our way?
3.) 31 Jul 2025 02:35:31
It could well happen. I’d rather keep Watkins, if he had to be sold for next years balance then try keep him till at least January so we know his goals will be replaced. it would sicken me if he went to united
23 Jul 2025 22:16:07
Been watching a few fans YouTube's about what they've made of our pre season so far and what formation we've been in, looking like it's 3 centre halves and wingbacks. So that says to me why are a few on here obsessed with wingers or buying wingers? Unless you're paying silly money, most wingers are 1 in 5 matches good/effective, always been that way, look to the past with Walter's, Daley etc. Only wingers from memory that have been week in week out good were Giggs when he started out, Damian Duff, Ovemars. For width we've got Maatsen on the left, Garcia could do it on the right though Dumfries would be the ideal

I think Emery is trying 3 at the back as an option so that in certain games we are ready to deploy that as a system or maybe even change to 3 at the back in tight games when we are ahead. I don’t think he will deploy it week in week out particularly as we seem to be targeting a right sided centre back, right back and winger allegedly.
2.) 24 Jul 2025 13:33:59
I think the back 3 is only because Konsa is away. I don't think he trusts anyone of the youngsters in a 2 and doesn't seem to want 2 with the same dominant foot either.
3.) 24 Jul 2025 22:36:50
Konsa, Mings and Torres would be our best back three, problem is, who have we got as cover .
4.) 25 Jul 2025 09:39:17
Ozcan and Canvot if we sign him, young and inexperienced I know but Pele was once too

Interesting 1 going round, Mika Biareth of Monaco for a No9, banging them in in Ligue 1 ?
UTV
1.) 24 Jul 2025 02:50:59
Looks like huge potential, would take him all day, probably cost a bit though. we need some outgoings soon (fringe players) so we can reinvest.
13 Jul 2025 18:30:48
This is an intriguing 1. rumoured that we're looking at the Brazilian keeper John Victor of Botfogo, Utd looking at him as well, has a release cause of around £8M, looks decent on YouTube, so if we were to sell Emi for £30M+ and get Victor and the guy from Brest for roughly £10M, good business imo ?
UTV
1.) 15 Jul 2025 23:45:40
Yes, but Brest are in the French 2nd tier so why would Bizot be a replacement for Emi? I also suspect that one or two United rejects might be coming our way since apparently, following the Bizot signing, they have formally pitched in for Emi. Perhaps Onana is one of them? Plus they want Ollie so we could end up with Rashford (with his wages cut) and/or Garnacho ?
2.) 16 Jul 2025 05:28:55
Not even close to what I was saying Menace?

3.) 18 Jul 2025 14:10:28
To be honest Allstar I don’t really want Martinez to go whilst I know we need to raise money I think other players are easier to replace, keepers with his abilities are rare. So for me at the risk of being somewhat controversial I would let Chelsea have Rogers for Jackson plus a cash adjustment in our favour. Similarly I would let Utd have Watkins for Garnacho plus another cash adjustment I’d then look to sign Asensio who I think would replace Rogers goals and assists and take Elliott and Luiz on loan with options to buy. I think as a squad we would be stronger we would have generated cash to address the PSR/SCR issues and reduce the average age of the squad.
4.) 19 Jul 2025 11:40:17
I honestly think Emi has peaked, it’s all downhill from for him from here so I’d cash in. I can see Rogers leaving and we will make a tidy profit on him. Just get this feeling we’re going to end up with Felix, if Unai can get him ticking then we wouldn’t miss Rogers. I’m not panicking yet, tbh I think all we need is a replacement for Carlos and Duran was never replaced, if we go with the squad we have now plus a centre half and No9 I’d be more than happy. Till the PSR crap goes then what’s the point? All we got to look forward to is trying to be the best of the rest meaning the best of the teams that PSR has been rigged to stop them competing ??♂️

Now that Tammy and Dougie are (or nearly) on board, would you guys be happy with that, or do you think we need (even) more wingers? ??

Id take another CM if we could get a loan or freebie.
2.) 28 Jan 2026 14:06:52
That said if Harry Wilson could be bought cheap I’d take him
3.) 28 Jan 2026 18:04:47
I'd take Stirling on a free
4.) 28 Jan 2026 19:00:14
Wouldn't go anywhere near Sterling unless his contract was heavily stacked toward performance/appearances, short term and with us having the option to extend.which he'd never sign up to anyway. I'd be very surprised if he leaves London now too. But, I agree that we'd benefit from another winger!
5.) 28 Jan 2026 19:27:37
He’s on £300k a week we aren’t in a position to pay anywhere near that kind of money, and allegedly he doesn’t want to leave London.
27 Jan 2026 19:31:41
Why don't we take a punt on Hayden Hackney of Boro? He's highly rated
UTV
25 Jan 2026 20:50:20
Probably small in the scheme of things but Bailey looked up for it when he came on, so our bench looks a bit better now, add Tammy to that and our squad is looking better than before Xmas ?

19 Jan 2026 09:27:22
How about this. why don't we just go out and buy whoever we want for however much it costs, win (buy) the Prem this season, get docked a ridiculous amount of points, to make a mockery of the PSR rules. and if that happens, it'll happen before Citeh get done for any charges going back 10+ years ??♂️

It’s been said about Emery that he struggled at PSG because of the egos of the big players, would be the same at Real because it pretty much sounded like the players bombed the Lat guy out ??♂️

I like Trafford, but if Emi was to go (in the summer) I’d go with Henderson of Palace, but they’re saying the Porto/Portugal keeper is the 1 that Emery wants

Bucky had his calculator to hand ? they do say though, that you’re more likely to get niggling injuries if you don’t play (90 mins) every week

Playing devils advocate here but you could say the same about Kamara, haven’t got my calculator in front of me but I’d say he averages about 3 months per season out injured ??♂️

Ref has lost control of this game. Not through Villa glasses but why didn’t VAR ask him to go look at the Joelinton challenge on Onana? £5 on him to pick up a 2nd yellow 2nd half ?
