Granit Xhaka remain Roma’s no 1 target in midfield. Xhaka is pushing for the move to happen and negotiations between both club still ongoing. Arsenal demanding €25m while Roma offer was €15m. Roma could include Cengiz Under to smoothen negotiations https://t.co/SM0pc7kicy

Right.......prediction time.

We've always got one player we obsess about endlessly in a transfer window and this time round it looks like Buendia. Weeks of fucking about for this one before we eventually pay the £40m that Norwich are after.

After that - some reserve left back probably, another no hoper second choice keeper and that will be about it

Can't see this Bissouma guy coming and from what I've seen he ain't worth £50m of anyone's money.

Yep. Sounds fairly likely but with the Norwich bloke, it'll be the usual fiasco of continually underbidding until another club comes in and pays the asking price. We'll then spend more money on a player that isn't half as good.

Understand Aston Villa have moved ahead in the pursuit of Emi Buendia. They are closer to meeting Norwich’s demands.


Emiliano Buendia, one step away from Aston Villa.
*️⃣ The operation is well advanced and will be done at a figure close to 35 million euros.
*️⃣ Arsenal, who also wanted him, never made an official offer to Norwich. [Tier 1 @CLMerlo]

You missed out an over 30s freebie on a four year contract .

If....... sorry who am I kidding :roll:

When this is yet another poor transfer window with the usual fucking about and missing out on our supposed 'top targets' the match going fans better let it be known that enough is enough, although in all honesty I can understand many will be happy just to be back watching live football.

Year after year we have the same tales of financial constraints, nearly got the deal over the lines, or other tales of woe as to why we have been unsuccessful, this time the ire cannot be allowed to solely focus on Arteta's poor management. Supporters across the spectrum need to focus on the Kroenkes because until they go it doesnt matter who is the Manager, who is the Technical Director, Chairman, CEO or whatever it HAS to be the owners who get the full blame :evil:

According to @tycSports, Emiliano Buendía has agreed to join Aston Villa. https://t.co/GbZ1f20e8a



NEW: #AFC and Villa made offers of around £30million this week, but PA news agency has been told Villa have put together an impressive offer for Buendia and they are now favourites to sign him. Full story.

Buendia to #avfc. Done deal. Personal terms and medical agreed and completed. Club record fee. Believe in the region of £35m, plus sell on. #ncfc bought out prev sell on from #getafe. Confirmation likely next 24 hours #nocircus #ncfc

On #avfc and Emi Buendia: initial fee of around £30m agreed with Norwich. Personal terms agreed and he has undergone his medical in Argentina today. Add-ons included, plus a sell-on. Will be a record signing for Villa and record sale for Norwich #ncfc


Aston Villa are confident to complete Emi Buendia signing in the next hours, as @charles_watts reported earlier today. Arsenal opening bid was turned down days ago - #AVFC now in advanced talks with Norwich , last details to complete the agreement around €35m. 🇦🇷 #transfers

So there you have it, even Aston Villa can outfox us in the transfer market. What was it Josh Kroenke said 2 months ago.

Of course, we are now going to bid for Grealish, why would he go to City when he can come to a mid-table club like ours.

This is exactly the sort of signing we should be lapping up (Buendia), now we are out of Europe.

Utter jokers.
