pay the right price for the right players, don't think we need more than 4, players like poveda & struijk looked more than a handful vdery comfortable on the ball & will only get better.

i think we need a keeper, white yes white, a playmaker & a striker

It's better being linked with Eze, Buendia, Foyth, Almada than it is being linked to Ayala and Stockdale every window.

read a few spurs fans comments about Foyth and they all reckon hes pants and not worth the supposed 15m being touted. Never seen him play myself and dont think hes played too many games so to me anything over 3-5m is overpriced. Again know nothing about Almada and as for Eze or Buendia both good players but in todays market think about 10m would be their limit and we would only go for one or the other. Guess if we were interested and not papertalk it would all depend on which one MB wanted the most and only for the right price

did MB not have a list off 5 players he wanted. I would agree with what you say plus maybe a LB as well so out of the dozens we are supposedly linked with will probably get none and 4 or 5 curve balls will land at ER in the next couple of weeks from Ortas secret stash

Whatever the question is Juan Foyth is not the answer.

He's given five players per position he wants to strengthen.

We have to spend money. Norwich tried to get by without properly reinforcing and spending and they got smashed. Good players cost money.

People shouldn't worry about this window, we're in a so called higher calibre league so if God wore football shorts he'd be getting pushed our way!..

I'm for thinking Bielsa has said the sort of player he wants, and I think the club will try and get the best they can of what he wants!..

People moaned throughout the whole of last season and look where it got us!..

With players nobody here thought would have been taken on, not that that was many mind!..

Personally, whilst it appears controversial to be so, I acutually trust Odog and Radz to get this right, firtsly, we all know Bielsa as does Radz and Orta, so you'd think Bielsa has a big say. who on here doesn't trust Bielsa???


Secondly, and more controversially I would imagine, Radz and Orta's signings were a huge part on getting us up.. when we're talking about hit rate for Orta, that includes many young lads who they took a chance on, but lets not forget our first team / squad, and how much those lads have done to get us up. Costa, Bamford, Klick, White, Harrison off the top of my head were big big reasons we smashed the league. Then you look at a Paveda, how decent does he look, potentially.

a bit controversial maybe, but I'm totally ok with transfers in the hands of our club.

Hope you take Foyth on loan

What about if the question is "Who is the only footballer in England who doesn't make Eric Dyer look like a pile of shat?"

Whatever business we do, I hope we do it early so that any new guys have the chance to bed in to Bielsa's ways.

But the first bit of business is to tie down Marcelo

Luiz springs to mind first. Had completely forgot Forth existed.

Is Douglas likely to stay? Got promoted with us and got shipped out immediately would feel sorry for him were that to happen a second time.

One transfer that has gone through is DeBock to Belgian side Sportvereniging Zulte Waregem, loan with option to buy. https://www.essevee.be/nl/team-essevee/nieuws/laurens-de-bock-speelt-volgend-seizoen-voor-essevee. Pretty sure that the guy's nightmare is over.

Can see us looking to the overseas player market for some young talent. Been linked to two or three Argentinian players, but probably just rumour based on their nationality.

Would make some sense though - too many inflated prices over in this country.

Dont know who we will sign but if we dont sign anyone in the next week all the joy and euphoria of promotion will be forgotten and it will be The owner this and Orta that, its the way fans are

--------------------

thats really true actually - to be fiar in one sense we do need to add to the squad, nobody would say we don't.. but lets get the right players in.. lets not as fans just purely see we've spent a load of money and be happy about it.

Villa fans were jumping through hoops this time last season, all these new players in, turned out rubbish, and a waste of money, they were lucky they didn't go down..

the right player, the right fit, for the right money is what we need! - but that could take longer than expected... I'd rather see us identify a player, and get him, I guess the balance is how much is he worth to us.

love the thought of Ben White - but 30 million is a lot. mind, I think I'd prob pay that to be fair, personally !! hmmm its tough.

Shut yer mouth !! - I may have exaggerated Bamford's running quantities to get a point across at the time

and I don't what a Polish ballet dancer has to do with anything anyway

Vaslav Nijinsky was a Russian ballet dancer, he believed in reincarnation, he died in 1948 I think...he believed he would be reincarnated as a horse...

On a Canadian farm in 1967 a Racehorse named Nijinsky was foaled, he won the Triple Crown in 1970...

Now if you don't mind I need to do a pirouette and a pas de deux....
