But why would any club pay big money for him given the circumstances? He's hardly going to incite the kind of bidding war that would push his price up to the 20-30m range when his club are on the brink of going into administration. Looking at that thread on Villa talk it seems the only other club that were really in for him were Leicester, it just doesn't seem to me that it will take much to bring him in.Has less to do with Villa, and everything to do with who else might be in for him.
#avfc stave off immediate threat of administration by promising HMRC £1.2m by end of week -half the total debt. Paid £500k earlier today. Club guarantee remaining £1.2m will be paid quickly. Xia will sell club for right price, but prefers to stay in charge and get new investment.
getting money from somewhere?
So many people on here have said Lamela is best in the middle behind the striker, I just don't get why we're going to bring in someone else to do that who isn't an absolute knockout star. I don't see how this is an upgrade from what we have. We need to be making upgrades, not keeping the status quo. Thats what this does.Man, I'm not thrilled about this Lamela can do everything this kid will be asked to do.. Waste of money but I reserve the right to be proven wrong.
Quick question - have you ever seen him play? Ever? Just curious.No way we're dumping 30mil on a championship player who's team is about to go bankrupt and would be nowhere near our starting lineup. I think its a waste of money regardless of how much he costs. We have Lamela to play backup 10 why do we need another one?
He is a decent prospect, I imagine a number of PL teams would be interested, and have the money.But why would any club pay big money for him given the circumstances?

150M to buy 4-5 players. Not all of those players can be upgrades to this squad with 150M to work with. Naturally that means that 2-3 of those players are going to be young, high potential squad players that can spot start now while still hopefully growing into something special.So many people on here have said Lamela is best in the middle behind the striker, I just don't get why we're going to bring in someone else to do that who isn't an absolute knockout star.

I dont mind him as a player but see him more as a attacking mid and think we need more a centre mid.
