Yesterday...

That’s an interesting thought. Enzo sale agreed and Rodgers in. Think most would take that given Rodgers physicality in PL. whatever the state, we still must address GK, GB and CM

Lets hope it works out better than the last "Arsenal Hijack" lol, Middlesbrough getting 20% apparently?

Think you are right . My guess is he is going to Saudi

I'd be shocked if we haven't already agreed a deal with Enzo elsewhere. This prospective signing seems to be lined up as Enzo replacement

GUSTO GETS TO START TONIGHT, LETS HOPE HE DOES ENOUGH TO MAKE CITY BUY HIM L'EQUIPE PREDICTION (they have got every team correct apart from the semi final and got 1 player wrong) Maignan, Gusto, Konate, Lacroix, Hernandez, Zaire-Emery, Rabiot, Cherki, Olise, Doue, Mbappe

More interested about the Arsenal forum

A small two page sample. Great fee, quality player but inconstant, laughing at Arsenal, what’s he thinking going to Chelsea.

Wow! Out of nowhere! It's a lot of money but he's a player I rate highly. Xabi has some pull, and well done Chelsea for a statement signing. To sign him without Champions League football is impressive. And, the added bonus we hijack Arsenal 😂

There is a bigger chance the chunk of money the club raise from now on is from multiple small ones like Garnacho, Badiashile, Disasi, Delap etc. rather than Enzo. Who is going to buy him? There is only a handful of clubs. I think if he is to go I see City as the most equiped to buy him. The others would be Real Madrid and Paris, but I really can't see those two spending over 100M for Enzo. Unless Paris sell one of Vitinha or Joao Neves, which is unlikely.

My exact reaction when I saw this rumour pop up. Joe Shields must hold some real power to make this happen, another of his former city connections right? This huge outlay, if it happens, drastically decreases the chance of Signing them. Much as this is a exciting possible signing I'd be much more excited if we signed Diogo Costa, or secured two class center backs, or a top midfield partner for Caicedo, with these resources. I mean I'd have said there was no chance we'd make such a deal so if they prove me wrong again and sign up Lacriox, Wharton and Diogo Costa along with Rogers then great, I'd be very happy with that would be BlueCos best window by a million miles.

What are they saying in the villa forum?..... I'll look 👀

Terrible signing, he's incredibly inconsistent. It's just a continuation of us buying all of Man City's ex youth players like it's some kind of plan. Really hate it, wrong profile imo.

As a club its been a rule for years, they barely ever comment on any rumours or transfers until its pretty much done, thankfully.

for no europe still feels a lot, hard to build minutes for them and they are at an age where they need it

Don’t say it. I deleted something similar as didn’t want to speak it into existence!

Wow. Always like his directness. Be interesting to see what Villa fans think of this. Also wonder what it means for Quenda, although he was unlikely be to starter in year one for LW. Estevao, Quenda, J Pedro, Palmer, Rodgers - pretty happy with that - one from below will likely stay (Neto), and strikers although Jackson and Emegha will get a chance Figure out what to do with Neto, Delap, Gittens, and assuming Garnacho gone.

God I hope he doesn't play tonight.

Depends on the formation, If we are going 3-4-2-1 I always had Enzo playing as one of the 2 he could push back but then we have the same issues in that he's just get run past and hoenstly I don't think he even likes playing in that 6/8 role. With his worldcup performance and contract term and the other transfers in the market he has to be 130-150. Only madrid can do that but if he puts on another decent showing tomorrow then maybe. On rogers, I thought that we were always opposed to him because of cross over with palmer? and then I remembered he's ex city youth so thats just what we do Any chance of a GK?

If he is an Enzo replacement, then Rodgers is streaky. It’s not a bad replacement as Enzo had 14 goals + assists last season. We will need them replacing somehow. Mixed feelings really. I like Enzo but you always want more from him - more athleticism, more defensive work, more goals etc. Maybe if we’re feeling like that then it’s time to move on him and making a profit (something we never thought we would see)

LOOKS LIKE ITS DONE https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c0ej1jyy8yyo

Games gone

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. You can’t have Palmer, Enzo and Rodgers.

What on earth? That’s insane. Think that is left wing / inside left? Makes Gordon look a good price

Thought he would definitely go to Arsenal as he'd have fit that role on the left perfectly for them. Great player and Palmer's got his bestie around him now. But where does this leave Estevao? Are we shaping up for a 4-2-3-1 with Rogers-Palmer-Estevao behind Joao Pedro? It's the only formation they all fit in.
