Need to see him starting games to really size up how good he is, doing it as a sub is great but we need him going against fresh players from the start.
You're right. Looking at his previous season he did not exactly have full matches and was always a sub; the fact that he is in hot form, he needs to get at least more playing time whether as a starter or at least a second half sub right off the bat. Aston Villa would love to increase his value more and more especially if he's doing good even when not attempting shots on goal.
Jhon Durán went on pure instinct for his winner past Manuel Neuer 😳 pic.twitter.com/cuAw0gqptn— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) October 2, 2024
I thought that guy spoke English since he came from MLS. Nice to hear Henry speak Spanish I know he's a good friend of Angel and went to Colombia if I'm not mistaken.I've always liked Henry even though he took a dive against us in confederations cup I believe years ago.
Gotta give @Carra23 and @MicahRichards 10/10 for trying with Jhon Durán 😂👏 pic.twitter.com/61WIfaWnzG— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) October 2, 2024
That interview was hilarious. Heres the whole thing. Come for Jhon Durán's interview in Spanish with Thierry and @kate_scott and stay for @Carra23 and @MicahRichards using Google translate to speak to Villa's match-winner 😂 pic.twitter.com/dwCAh2CD58— CBS Sports Golazo ⚽️ (@CBSSportsGolazo) October 2, 2024
I don’t know pretty shit English players seem to be going for insane prices recently. Last big Brazilian transfer was Neymar.
I think there's a good chance someone will pay a huge sum for Duran this summer and Villa will look like geniuses turning down West Ham. I think Duran is great and has all the tools to be a top 9, but he's still young and not being a consistent starter is inflating him some plus on a hot run. IDK that this is ideal tbh, I'd like him to go somewhere without a huge price tag and be able to just keep progressing to hit his full potential.
He should be the next best number 9 but his head issues make me doubt that If he can somehow mature while still keeping that fire, oh boy
Well the nt coach and the leaders of the team should be telling him don’t be thinking about Real or Barca. Look what happened to James who is infinity better than you be a top scorer in England and know you can walk into one of those clubs because you cost 80-100+ m then go cool I’ll go. right now no chance he benches any of the top 3 at real. Or gets more minutes than he does now at Barca who rather play some 17 year old that pops up next season who will make 10k a month on a youth contract Be honest with villa and the coach. You want a Real Madrid move in the future and will work your ass off for them to make yourself good enough for it. Not be a little bitch wearing Real Madrid crap or signing their songs
He's gonna be a top 9, guys like Balotelli, Ibra lots of examples of big personalities who take time to mature and there can be ups and downs. The guy doesn't seem like he's nasty, he seems confident, aggressive and a bit of a joker and I think at Villa they're doing a good job of not just giving him everything. With his physical gifts and his goal scoring ability he's always gonna have demand, let's hope he goes the way of the Ibra's rather than the balotellis.
It was a beautiful goal showing off his instincts and skill. I hope he can score for us in these next two WCQs.
During the setup for a wall before a FK he basically picked up and dragged Goretzka like a rag doll in front of the Ref. Not smart.
Happy for Duran to be having such a strong month. His upside has yet to be seen - for now I hope to see him get a full season under his belt and get several 75-90 minute appearances for both club and country just the fact that several of our boys are getting Champions league exposure is great and will pay off as WCQ and future tournaments come up
