Villa have just announced the signing of another central midfielder Birkir Bjarnason from FC Basel. Could this mean Conor isn't signing?
Nah it just means Aston Villa have the funds to stockpile players in an all out push for promotion. Blackburn did it in the early 2000's and Norwich signed about 19 strikers a few years ago.
So there's a good chance he will be sat on the bench at a club below us in the league, de-valuing himself by the minute. Surely he will see this, but money talks!
maybe villa see us as a threat to that last playoff spot so dismantling our team. we shoudl use this situation to fire up the players left to finish higher than villa and in the playoffs!
