They stepped asideSurely he would've improved the mags?
It's the sort of signing they should be going for. Anyone with a real plan would be building gradually, not hoy £30-£40 million bids at anyone and everyone.Surely he would've improved the mags?
You’re right, he can play in central defence or at right back - badly in both positions.Solid squad building for Villa TBH. He's 27, experienced and can play in the centre or at right back.
Steve Bould?Buying defenders from Arsenal is never a good idea. Especially ones who can’t get a game.
Chambers is actually ‘alright’, Jenkinson is shite. Not sure how much Chambers has cost Villa but he’s a decent sub option for any defensive position for a top half prem team. Wouldn’t be a nightmare if one of their defenders was out for a few games etcI always get him and Carl Jenkinson mixed up. Not convinced they aren’t in fact the same person. You could hoy Rob Holding into that trio of defensive Gooner mediocrity too.
Yep, a proven winner and leader with several titles etc in his pocket. Tony Adams was canny too, as was Martin Keown.Steve Bould?

IIRC, The taxi driver misspelled Jebbison and everyone jumped at it being Jenkinson, when it was actually Daniel JebbisonWeren’t we linked with the latter this summer?
Ashley Cole?Yep, a proven winner and leader with several titles etc in his pocket. Tony Adams was canny too, as was Martin Keown.
Since then, not so much.
