Player Suggestion Louie Barry

[finlaytheblade]

Because we would benefit whether we got promoted or not as he'd be our player. Let's say we get him on loan and he makes a great impact like MGW and McAtee but we don't get promoted. Villa might then sell him for £10-£15mil to another top flight club. If we sign him permanently (for a fee lower than that now), then if we don't go up and clubs are interested then we sell him for £10-£15mil then we get all the benefits.

I'm not against loans but how much money did Wolves, Man City and Man Utd make from the sales of Henderson, MGW, Doyle and soon to to be McAtee thanks to us, not to mention the loan fees paid to them.

Loan to buy deals very rarely end up that way. There's rarely an obligatory if you loan them then you must buy them. They're normally a deal of if you want to sign them after loaning them then you get first option and we'll agree a deal now, regardless of how well they play on loan, or if you get promoted and they play x number of games then that will trigger the afore mentioned deal.

I can think of very few, if any, loans where we went on to buy them that season or at the end of a season. Kabba and Webber are the only ones that immediately spring to mind.

Horsefall !

Oh yes, good old Geoff Horsfield. Came in on loan, fell out with Warnock almost immediately and dropped forever, then it turned out we were obliged to buy him for a million quid

Peak Ndlovu would be soooo good to have right now. Well, except he'd be pinched by a richer club immediately.

There seems to be a bit of Ndlovu about Barry (appreciate the young lad has a long way to come to get to Nuddy legendary status) - tricky winger who can be unplayable on his day, but also has days where he’ll do nowt

Im going to guess that Barry will be going to Germany for Villa's two friendlies there next week - if he comes back unscathed we sign him.

There were reports that we were signing someone this week. If it is Barry, will be interesting to see if he does travel with them or not

If its Barry, Selles was alluding to, its quite far down the line, seems pointless to travel abroad with Villa.

Didn't he say something about signing a player in the next 7 days (post York) which would bring it round to Tuesday next week at the latest.

Barry played in a friendly at walsall last night

 

[godsufc]

I think he only featured last night as none of their ‘first team players’ were back as of last night

Heard deals been hijacked by SC Freiburg. You heard owt pal?

Half expecting this & other Premier League loans to go right up to end of August as they sort out their squads. It’s always a shambles for EFL clubs. They should stop loans earlier to stop Premier League clubs hoarding players.

Well yeah, but with only LB and that Antman fella even mentioned you'd assume it was one of those. The Bulgarian RB fella cant be it, surely.

Anyone who says "i would have scored that" would have needed to have got into the Barca academy first.
Think they won that game 6-0 as well tbf

 

[Karaoke Blade]

cracking finish. Gerrim signed!

 

[Booker4]

Does it show a lack of ambition?
What if it was an obligation to buy, with the previously suggested sell on clauses in place?

Without knowing the details it's impossible to say.

I think if we went up we could have an option to buy but maybe the 50% Villa sell on was a put off but I would imagine we'll have to pay a lot more to sign Barry permanently if he does well plus other teams will show interest.

I know we spent big on Cannon but you've got Derby and West Brom both signing players for transfer fees, the lad Derby signed from America cost £5.8m.

The signing in the next 7 days will probably be the Bulgarian 18 year old who was posting photos from Sheffield.
