We wont go for him. I like the Salzburg player we have been linked to. I like their profile for a double pivot. We have to get to a point where if Partey is out we still have athleticism in the centre of the pitch.

Hard to disagree with this. Feel we are missing a trick not looking at him. Couldn't ask for a better target type. Someone that was prolific highly sought after and for some reason unwanted.

I would agree if there was a translation.

Ooops I thought it came across.
Basically says Dembele leaves OL in relative anonymity. Scoring machine since his arrival. 2 times OL top scorer in 2019 and 2020.
Country: Wales
Buzzing to see him at the Wanda now. Suarez and Felix are going to create so many chances for him.
Country: Scotland
Its a shame he won't be here getting on the end of Tierney's crosses. He is a goal scorer and I'm sure he will do well there.
And the rumoured fee of 25m seems a bargain in this day and age.

Loan without obligation I think I saw so even if he is sh*t don’t have to buy.

I'd favor Olise over Brooks.
Pépé's future at Arsenal is questionable with the emergence of Saka at RW, and Nelson has done nothing to be safe from being sold. Doesn't need to be sold anyway, really, you need quality back-ups also.
All of them are very young, so you need to rotate them anyway. Going forward I think Martinelli is a CF, so you could plan for the future with Olise-ESR-Saka and Martinelli as the CF.

Great deal. I think he has a broken arm just now so hopefully he heals up quickly and fires AM to the title.

Then I'd rather have Depay (although he'll most likely go to Barcelona). I also read in an article on Edouard, where they compared him to Dembele (who I believe had a better scoring record than Edouard), that a Celtic player regarded Edouard higher because of his all round game.

Olise doesn't look all that to me tbh. Has got some silky moves but that's about it really. We've already got Saka and Pepe who seem quite a lot better than him with a much higher ceiling. I can't really see where he even fits in tbh.

Same for Brooks. He is a decent talent and has possibilities of improving but he is hardly Bale.
People here acting as if Aston Villa are signing Pele and Maradona when both of them are likely to struggle to get into their first 11 for this season and next.

Two different players. Dembele is more a traditional Drogba like forward and Edouard is more akin to an Aguero type.

Brooks is incredible talent (probably the most talented potential wise welsh outfield player I've seen in my life time). Also very underrated, normally it's the opposite with welsh (eg Ramsey, Bale and Giggs).

Defo Edoaurd out of the two then

but Holding’s hair transplant was painless
That's high praise. Bale is a physical beast, but if you saw Giggs anywhere near his prime, there's no way that Brooks is in the same category.

I did see Giggs in prime. A very good PL winger, however he wasn't of the quality some people made him out to be. Giggs was no Pires.

Giggs longevity made him a legend. For quite a long period he was the 4th best midfielder in United's 4 man midfield!

but Holding’s hair transplant was painless
Couldn't disagree more. Giggs was absolutely mesmerising in his prime. Such a silky, yet dynamic dribbler. Every bit as good as Luis Figo who played for both Barca and Madrid. Brooks isn't top 3 winger in the world potential is he?

Not at all lol. He'd be rotated a lot for a season at least.
