From a Villa point of view, it looks like an OK window now that we seem to have finally gotten Disasi as our CB for the rest of the season, to go with Malen, Asensio and Rashford.
We should also have Mings and Torres back from injury soon.

Nottingham Forest have just doubled their Kiwi contingent as Tyler Bindon has signed from Reading until 2028. He will be loaned back to Reading for the remainder of the season.
That's 3 now as Marko Stamenic is also on their books, but is on loan at their brother club Olympiacos.
@African-Monkey I forgot he had left Red Star Belgrade. Hopefully he and Bindon get a chance to play with Wood in the EPL.

Bournemouth may have missed the loan of Ferguson, but picking up boom kid Eli Junior Kroupi for is a massive win. This 18 year old has a lot of talent.

Looks like Chelsea were sniffing around him - he's made a good decision to go to a club that may actually nurture his career.

I think so, we will lose some key talent over summer for sure, so I wouldn't be surprised to see him with game time early. He stays with Lorient for their current season for now too, so both clubs happy.
Club direction is interesting, 5 recruits over winter and all teenagers, the high energy press requires some fast legs. Sometimes it is a risk but hopefully most make it

Sounds like Spurs recruitment strategy. You need old heads as well, to help guide the kids

You do, but the rules have made it extremely hard for teams to fork out money for older players due to their wage demands, the transfer fee they cost, and how difficult it becomes to get them off the books as they get older.
Case in point being Man U who have guys like Casemiro, Shaw and Lindelof who have almost become unsellable.
-
So Willian left Fulham in the Summer because he wanted more money and a longer than one year contract and now he's back for 4 months on less money.
Given he knows the team and Silva's patterns and that Harry Wilson is out for 10 weeks-ish it's a no risk signing but don't expect him to start pulling up trees but hopefully he can still provide decent cover
-
Should have beaten Newcastle twice this year it seems, season still in our own hands though
-
Newcastle celebrating like they have already won lol, still have one more match to get through and Im sure Liverpool or Spurs wont just roll over
-
Can't see Tottenham getting past Liverpool tbh. Would love to see a Tottenham v Newcastle final, but this Liverpool side are getting stronger and stronger and its still a very youthful Tottenham side running around.
Having said that, Ange really needs this. His job could depend on whether he succeeds on cup competition or not.
-
Well that loss did Ange no favors

Asensio.
I'll reserve my excitement on him as Philippe Coutinho was the exact same when he started with us and it went a bit pear shaped after that. Quality player though, as you'd expect with the CV he has.

Liverpool were there for the taking with the team they selected. No quadruple this season ...

A good thing for them too. Klopp tried twice for quadruples, came home with no major trophies in those seasons.
Liverpool have bigger fish to fry.

Good news for them - real chance of reaching the quarter-finals now!
