Two weeks to actually do something...

Virtually no team takes their full quota of 25. Nor should they IMO. That leaves masses of money sat on the bench most weeks. Also with kabouls departure we've got 19 senior pros - not far from optimum at all. Jose has the right idea. He aims for 22. Otherwise things lose focus.
Calling Love McNair Watmore Pickford senior pros is hardly valid. Between them they have about 60 games of which there's a lot of sub appearances.

Do they all actually count as squad members yet anyway. Our squad is wafer thin with absolutely zero quality beyond Defoe,Kone,Khazri,Kirchhoff.
 
MMMM Keeper we arent weaker
Fullbacks we arent weaker (Yedlin didnt pull up any tree's Love looks as good if not better)
Centre backs we have lost Kaboul gained the African lad and Mcnair unknown if we are weaker
Centre midfield no Mvilla lots of injuries
Up front no weaker, still Borini Defoe Khazri Watmore very promising Gooch

Looks to me like we have lost two players for now that we wouldnt want to lose Kaboul and Mvilla

How are we weaker everywhere?
Based on what :lol:

Nolito had him spinning around like a revolving door ffs, kept showing him onto his only foot and looked shaky as fuck

People are definitely seeing something i didnt regarding love like

Our midfield is massively weaker without mvila but never mind, keep making excuses
 
We can't even fill a full bench mate, it's an absolute farce. We have lost our best defender and best midfielder since May. You can't dress it up any other way tbh. I have zero faith we will sign any quality players never mind the amount we need. 1/2 injuries and we are absolutely screwed
I think we're screwed before 1/2 injuries tbh
 
Blackett has nose dived and wasn't he subbed twice after coming on as a sub? Totally different player and different position.

Tommy Elphick joined Villa in the Championship for £3m.
Lys Mousset cost Bournemouth £5.4m from Le Havre
Jordon Ibe cost Bournemouth £15m.
Lewis Cook cost Bournemouth an initial £6m.
Brad Smith about £6m.
Hanley cost the Mags £5m ish and so did Clark.
Jedinak, 32 years old, cost Villa about £4m in the Championship.

I can't be arsed to go through the other clubs. McNair for £5.5m is not out of place in that list at all.
Played more senior games than love and McNair combined. Played more than Watmore as well yet people are calling these senior pros. Tyler Blackett is hopeless mind, expect similar from love. Hopefully McNair is better

We have 15 senior pros of which Larsson/catts are out for a while and Januzaj is 21.
 
Instead of following me around this forum like a love struck puppy, try opening your eyes and grasping whats unfurling right in front of them.
You're an eternal miseryguts Masterplan lad but the one thing you can't be accused of is being a mag. Excellent at putting them to the sword on here.:cool:

What difference does that make man? All of those players mentioned are genuine first team contenders. The fact that januzaj is 21 makes absolutely fuck all difference. He will play 30+ games for us. We've got 19 players in the senior squad and that's final ;)

Blackett has played 12 time for Man Utd. The last of which was over a season ago.
 
We will never do anything as long as the current owner remains in control of the club. As usual, everything is geared towards that 17th place, their is no ambition whatsoever to achieve anything other than that. I'd be amazed if our net spend this summer is much more than £15m.

Just how much should he be coining out every season?
