Jayden Phylogene is a player I hope we can sign, latest says he will decide quickly about a mov, apparently we have offered £16 million for him.
{Ed025's Note - now he is someone i really like GB and he looks like the kind of player i want us to sign mate, its a big step up to the prem of course but he seems to have a lot going for him i feel..

Never seen this lad play but he's highly regarded and would love to take a punt on him but seen one or 2 rumours circulating that Barcelona might be interested aswell so be interesting to see where he ends up signing.

Tbh Ed, I was shocked when Villa let him go for so cheap to Hull. Although I do believe the included a buy-back clause for £15 million, however, it can only be activated if they are in the same division.
He was coming through at the same time as the lad Chelsea got, not even going to attempt to spell his name, so I will call him Chuck for short. I remember watching him in a cup game and he looked like he had a bit about him.
If we can add him or someone like him, along with Ndiaye, we might actually have some players who can carry the ball and take a man on, something that feels like I haven’t seen for a lifetime mate.

Think he prefers the Premiership Andy mate.
{Ed002's Note - Jaden Philogene (LW) Doing well enough to attract the interest of Crystal Palace, Everton and Spurs. Aston Villa have a buy-back option but I cannot see the player being interested.}

Looks good, however feel Palace may have the edge as they already play attractive attacking football and if olise goes that could be an opening for him to get a starting spot for them, believe he’s also originally from London.
Hopefully we can try and tempt him with the new direction we are trying to head in recruiting youngsters as well as the potential new owner coming in as well as the new stadium on the horizon.
On a plus note it looks like we’re starting to look at a decent recruitment model of trying to sign young up and coming players with relatively low fees and potential for a decent re-sale in the future.

Ipswich seem to making headway with him. I thought he'd choose us over them simply because of our status in comparison. But we'll wait and see. It is what it is.
