It’s a good article but I find it a bit padded. Why no mention of how shit Stevie was? Poor signing in Wesley and Ings? Come on 😂 Wesley played for half a year and had a very serious injury which he’s never recovered from. Ings played great and banged in goals but then Unai came in and wouldn’t choose him over a younger more hardworking Watkins. That’s a tactical sale if I’ve ever seen one before. The amount of dead wood Villa also had to get rid of upon promotion back to the premiership so yeah they were gonna be spending like most teams who get promoted.

The bit about making good sales included one good sale (grealish), one good sale given context (chukwuemeka having one year left). Would have been a good opportunity to mention how shite we have been at selling players over the last four years.
