By who? Older football fans obviously, but other than that they’re just another club to anyone outside of Birmingham. Younger fans have no memory of Villa’s 80s success or consistently being top 6 under Martin O’Neil. Obviously players can easily be swayed by money, but realistically they’ll...
Liverpool definitely shop for value, as do Arsenal and Tottenham, the latter 2 could very well finish top 4. Man Utd are the most likely candidate to spaff an eye watering amount on Rice.
Have we seen any concrete bids go in for Rice or Phillips yet?
I appreciate Rice, Bellingham and Phillips are good alternatives, but they will all cost far more than Biss, I just can’t see him going to a cash rich team that doesn’t have CL football to offer him.
We’re making this very easy for Tottenham to defend against, super slow and our traditional overplayed passing on the edge of the box, they wait, we shuffle a few bodies forward and BANG they make a challenge and counter.
