Villa bid for Morgan Rogers

The more that gets written about him the more surprising it is he’s ended up here - played for England at all age groups poached from West Brom early on etc etc so in football circles he’ll be well known and probably villa have had an eye on him for a long time
 
This is a bit like when Tav left. We all came up with great reasons why we should keep him and why he should stay but the reality is money and the premier league is not guaranteed at any point in a players career so when the chance comes along they always take it. Villa are significantly better than Bournemouth as well.
I disagree, I think Tav’s move added up, the doubt was whether or not Bournemouth would survive in the Prem, but they have and he was bought to play in the team so it has been a good move for him.

Do you think Rogers will be a regular for Villa?

He was only at man city 6 months ago. He tasted the wilderness then. Players seem to want the here and now rather than build a foundation that could make them better players In the future. Suppose thats the world now.
 
He’s a brummy, he’s young, he’s not going to cost north of £15m and his potential is to be worth £40m+ - lots adds up for villa and the player

Mmmm potential to be £40m plus eh?

You seem to know a lot about valuations and potential valuations.

If the Birmingham mafia are deliberately unsettling one of our players let’s hope Gibson takes their eyes out.

Yes, it’s kind of sad but it’s all business now. I read that in 2019 villa took several highly rated academy staff from West Brom (including Danks) and installed within their set up. So very likely there’s people who worked with him when he was younger and know how good he is/could be and think they bring him to a higher level.

Dam my cover is blown! Don’t tell anyone - I’ve got a gig in Saltburn in a few weeks, last thing I want is Gibbo turning up for some chew.

Hah hah, I hope your Saltburn gig goes well.

Look, Villa are clearly trying to unsettle him and every journalist report includes Rogers wanting to go to Villa Park, it’s all a bit naughty but we ourselves have had some very good players from Villa in the past, so as you say it’s all business.

But if Villa are so desperate for a largely inexperienced player with decent potential then Gibbo needs to play hardball.
 
Wonder if he plays Tuesday? Hope so - I’m sure Chelsea are delighted jones went off injured and Rogers is being tapped up.

Villa poached west broms academy coaches a couple of seasons ago since then they have been mopping up west brom starlets. They know all about Rogers for sure.

 
Marcus Forss for me.. then Matt Clarke

Dunno with Higgy.. just comes across a bit ‘meh’ little stuff, daft stuff. Saying ‘them’ instead of ‘us’ etc

What happened to Dana Malt? Maddo and Malt taken out with the lurgee?

Both ill. It was refreshing hearing a proper boro accent with the young lad Connor though. Made me laugh when he said it was that cold he couldn’t wait to get home and have a bubble bath.

Tav was always slotting straight into Bournemouth’s team.

Rogers is not getting anywhere near Watkins, Diaby, Bailey, McGinn, Ramsey.

He’s miles away from getting in their team.
 
Another schit performance from the most wanted man in boro. I must watch a different game to a lot of posters on here. He’s a bottom half, bog standard champo player with occasional flashes. 5-8 mill and I’d snap Villa’s wrists clean off, bone an’ all.
