Quality, quality player. And we simply never bothered to buy someone who could pass ever again.

So after 46 pages, what’s everyone’s opinion then - Hit or Miss?

It did work out though so was a good calculated risk in the end. It’s nearly impossible these days to find a really promising player that no-ones heard of so we had to pay what we did to get him

Schneiderlain if I remember, first 6 months wasn't THAT bad, before he downed tools.

Right though, we haven't replaced Barry, hope the next CM bought in is someone or somewhat of the mold of him.

Made Gueye go up a few levels too.

Both. Didn't work out for us on the pitch, worked out very well financially.

(not very well)

Thanks for the crowd hyping, Amadou.

And the pen against Fulham.

Enjoyed that mate.

Waiting for the cheesy thank you socials post

Think Villa under Emery is a lovely move for the lad's development. Fair play Ama.

Excellent, lock the thread let's move on

Good luck Andre
