Other Teams Transfers - Summer 2024

[AjcW]

Villa have got Archer and Philogene back this week then. Be interesting to see what they do with them next. 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Greaves will play for England within 2/3 years. Bit gutted we've missed out / weren't in for both him and Ronnie Edwards tbh.

Cos they managed to meet ffp pre June 30 and are now in a season where they will pull in around £265m/280m

Villa cheating FFP to finance this.

Their strategy makes sense though. Give yourself a chance in the top flight, if you go down you have a team that should get you back up. All of their signings are likely to increase in value if others come in for them. 
 

Given two years ago they were in league one I get wha they are doing.  

[em9999]

That's if the players want to stick around back in the championship

I said this to my friend the other day. The strategy is spot on. They get a crack at staying up and if they fail they will have a squad that won’t get completely raided and will have a team capable of winning the league. It gives them great foundations for coming straight back up and then spending to establish themselves in the prem.

 

A real long term, sensible approach from them in my opinion. If they’re really smart when/if they get relegated they’ll keep hold of Mckenna as well. They have to appreciate survival after back to back promotions would be massive as they went up with what was basically a league one foundation.

 

I’d be very happy if I was an Ipswich fan, I think we will see them in the prem over the next decade more than they’re not wether they stay up this season or not.

[Jazzy_Jeff]

I don’t think we’re a million miles away from the same strategy.

 

I’d like to think BDCR, Okoli and Golding would stick around if we went back down.

Unfortunately pretty much anyone I have spoken to who has had any involvement or interaction with the club during Rodgers time there tells very different stories to what we tend to believe on here. The only one that does seem to have any truth is in that final season he checked out early doors.
