The January Transfer Window - 2022

[DavidMarrio]

 

 

From the outside given I don't watch Villa regularly, given what I know of Phil and his ability I think it's a good pick up for Villa. 

I always thought it was a bit of a mad signing for Barca for how much they paid given the players they had in the positions Coutinho could play in. He's not his the form that he did when he was at us but you don't just lose it completely. 

@Cymbols you'll clearly know more about where he'd potentially fit in or if it's the type of signing you need at the time.

Trippier ecstatic about signing for Kayak.

Do you think he realised he missed the badge completely.

I like Coutinho to Villa, but did they need another attacker? Felt like that’s the department they’re the most loaded in.

That was all lovely until they put that starting lineup at the end which featured Ritchie in a back 4 and no Joelinton. Also that guys voice is really annoying.

[Gazz]

Tifo barely even trying anymore. Darlow in goal? Get the fuck outta here with your nonsense.

[Lineker]

They (well, the Athletic) have just been purchased by the New York Times Company.

 

Southampton have extended Willy until the end of the season.

His vaccination status would fit in as well in the Premier League as it does in the NFL.

That will make for a more interesting climax to the season.

Yeah I mean it wasn’t a priority position, CB and LB are more pressing for sure. But, if a player this good is available, you don’t turn it down. 
 

And I mean, we are fairly stacked in this position, but even a Coutinho not at his best is better than Trezeguet, El Ghazi and Bertrand Traore. Plus Leon Bailey is injured, and I don’t know if there’s an estimated return date for him any time soon.
 

Sounds like the finances on the deal are quite favourable too. The percentage of wages puts him at roughly the same as we were paying Ross Barkley, and there’s an option, rather than an obligation, to buy for £33m in the summer. 

[Baddar]

And he signs nicely in time to bag winners in the back to back fixtures against us too. 😫

[Cymbols]

I reckon you’ll be fine for the first one - what with registration deadlines, plus potential for isolation and all that jazz.

Second game could be tasty though.

[Szumi]

I don't see any world Villa pay this fee in the summer, no matter how well he might do. That's too high a fee for Coutinho given his wages + how's badly Barca want him gone.

I genuinely hope he tears it up again though. Wish only great things for him

[Adam]

I know his wages will be a lot higher, but they spent a similar amount on Emi Buendia in the summer so if he does well I'm sure Villa would want to make a go of it.

[Baddar]

[Cymbols]

Not messing around I see.

[stokeriño]

I don't know why people expect "you might be our starting left-back...sometimes...until Chillwell recovers"-type January transfers to happen in the first place tbh.

[Colly]

It's not as if Alonso is shit either, I found it really weird.
