Yeah Brandt is. 43 caps for Germany. Can play anywhere in attacking midfield and as a no.8. 6ft 1 and versatile/creative. 57 goals, 70 assists in 307 games for Dortmund. 30 yrs old so wouldn't be much sell-on value, but on a free that wouldn't matter much anyway.
Openda's career has stalled at Juve but smashed it in Holland, France and Germany, was scoring for fun before his big move to Juve. More of a second striker type player. Fast as fuck. 26 yrs old. Cant remember where the link originally came from, but I think the YEP confirmed we were keen. Would be great competition for Okafor. We struggle without Okafor's pace and directness when he misses games imo.
Openda would be great if we went two up top
Any ITKers on Waccoe saying awt about Wilson and Brandt?
They reckon Wilson done. Bookies not taking bets anymore

He's the one for me, Wilson. 17 goal contributions last season. Currently in his prime, just turned 29.
Brandt exciting too but Wilson is an established Prem creator. No worries about acclimatising.
I read the other day from a supposed Villa ITKer that Villa don't want to spend £100k+ a week on a squad player, which they would perceive him to be.

Out of the 2 I’d say Wilson is the more likely. Simply because of the Welsh boys.
Brandt would be an absolute coup. And if that’s the level of player we’re looking to entice, it’s encouraging.
But as stated, we’re not the only ones at the table in both cases.

Would Wilson even be first choice at Villa?
He would be for us.

Assuming he would be the upgrade on Brendy then if matches his minutes/starts (2,476/30) then I think that’s pretty decent?

Long story short; until either we or Ornstein drops it, be patient.
We don’t tend to do leaks these days.

Waccoe saying Wilson playing golf in south Wales this weekend and presuming that's him flying up after.
