So assuming the rumours are right and we have to sell one of our stars to comply with PSR and by stars I mean one of Watkins, Rogers, Tielemans, Martinez, Kamara, which one would you sell?

Probably Rogers. We could make a huge profit on him and cover multiple signings/wages.
While we need to bring through younger players I feel he is the most easily replaced, he gives the ball away more now than when he first signed.
Emi is almost impossible to replace. There are decent keepers out there but very few command the area the way he does, one of the main reasons we don't concede many from the first phase on set pieces.
Although he makes the odd error, his confidence also helps when playing out, a lot of options mentioned will 100% start spiralling when it goes wrong.

Martinez
17 May 2025 11:38:38
Emi martinez he's nearly 33 cash in and bring in a younger gk, like luinnin from realmadrid, trubin from benfica, diego costa from porto, kellerher lpool, or petrevic chelsea, also remember emi wasnt worldclass strait away villa made him a top gk
17 May 2025 11:47:07
We can't sell crown jewells rodgers
Kamara, YT, and konsa you can't replace them would cost mega millions, any1 else can go for the right price if emi goes il be sad but you move plus he's 32 aswell and we will get good price
17 May 2025 12:22:14
Jonny, most of those goalkeepers would cost the majority if not all of any fee we get for Martinez without being at the same level.
Goalkeepers easily play to 38-40 so it's not like he's hanging up his gloves anytime soon.
I would prefer to spend £10-20m on a good quality young keeper and loan them out at a high level for first team experience.

Luninn 20mil rk buy out clause and trubin 35mil from benfica
17 May 2025 16:35:16
I’m with you rk I’d let Rogers go sign Asensio and either Eze or Mbuemo and still be in profit with the other squad players like Bailey, Buendia moving on. Martinez is worth 8-10 points a season and at 32 he’s coming into his prime as a keeper he would not be easy to replace. The save he made from Odobert last night barely got a mention but it was fantastic reactions that goes in and the game would have been very different. I can think of a couple of other saves this season where had he not made them the result could have been very different.
18 May 2025 03:04:41
I’d sell Martinez, Bailey, Buendia, nedelkovic, I wouldn’t bother signing Assensio and I’d go for both Mbuemo, and Eze but I don’t think Eze would come to us especially now they have Europa league. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some young players swapped around like last year to polish up the finances
17 May 2025 09:42:14
Just had to say I thought that is the best Torres has played for the Villa.
Kamarra was superb, we really need to get him to sign a new contract, we can't let him run his contract down.
Asensio was very good, his one touch control was excellent and his movement off the ball was superb. The way he pulled two defenders out of position for the second goal was top notch. If we could sign him for about 15 million I think we should go for him, what can he achieve with a full pre season?

Reading the press and looking at Emis emotional waves looked like a final farewell, seems like he has played his last game at Villa park, if that's true then thanks for the memories mate.

Bailey looked like he was crying when he came on! Definitely looked like Emi was saying his goodbyes. He'll be a massive loss.may not have been as good as last season but he's still worth at least 10 points to us. PSR really is a bag of sh@te!
17 May 2025 09:15:43
Theres loads of top goalkeepers about love emi but villa will be fine if emi goes lunnin from realmadrid top gk and trubin from benfica also top gk and a lot younger than emi aswell remember emi wasnt wclass when we signed him also diego costa from porto aswell and kellerher from lpool, petrucci from chelsea good gk was good under poch
16 May 2025 23:49:55
It's interesting that we have a squad of quality players all with their individual merits and yet some single one player out as our superstar, Torres can definitely pass a ball, unfortunately he has no pace can't head a ball had cost us endless goals because his lack of the vital ingredients needed to play at the highest level.

Dave the people around me, certainly weren’t impressed with some of his passing tonight. Not as if he was under, a lot of pressure, also they were moaning about him slowing it down . UTV
17 May 2025 01:59:01
Yep he'd be better suited as a dm scotty i reckon he's a good player but lacks pace and isn't good in the air, i prefer my 2 cbs to defend win tackles headers duels, mark have good awareness and be a leader at the bck old school defenders not botherd about my cbs that are good at passing and running with ball in my opinion have to have pace thou but i suppose this is the way the games going look at the gk now its all about how good they are with there feet now
17 May 2025 06:24:23
100% agree Jonny, also give me a proper No9, not a ‘forward’ and a midfield general, a keeper that stops goals going in, spine of the team
UTV
17 May 2025 09:21:58
Agree A72 1 other thing that does my head in is when a winger gets to the cornerflag and not cross the ball instead they cut in and shoot, same with players outside the box not shooting aswell so annoying
17 May 2025 11:17:49
They play on the opposite wing to what they’re footed now to enable them to cut in, not my cup of tea tbh, would only work for me they switched wings during the game to keep the other team guessing 🤷🏼♂️

Martinez and Bailey both in tears, so it looks like they are off .
Good win should have perhaps been more, if only for our goal difference. Ginny was different class tonight, his ability and will to win is immense, the stick he gets on here is ridiculous. Onana has filled in brilliantly and Maatan, his pace is unbelievable. Malan said it before, just can't believe he can't get a game . Rogers once again was so frustrating, we all know he needs to play central, but why the size of him, can't he hold onto the ball .
Man U next we have to beat them, 1-0 will do off Ollie's arse .UTV
