  1. See that Barnsley have for Everton gethin jones on loan which could free up the departure of Bree.
  2. Shouldn't be a problem as we have until noon tomorrow .
  3. I'd throw rhodes in too and let ayew go - Rhodes with that midfield would get chances and is a natural finisher - ayew has little end product . bree would be a great addition at right back - we'd have a real crack at play offs with those 4. noted Allan mcgregor linked with loan move to Cardiff - would have probably preferred him to Johnstone personally as he helped hull up last season under Bruce .
  4. I'd stick jedinak in front of the back 4 and hourihane and Lansbury would both give him far more aid than Westwood and Gardner - creativity about to return to our midfield at long last .
  5. Karanka has said today that boro have turned down 2 bids for Rhodes but he can leave if the asking price is met .
  6. Seems odd having a medical in dec and being sold a month later - what if he sustains a problem between the medical and being sold ? However vIlla transfers has been on the money all the way on deals and I'd take Rhodes ahead of ayew - if lansbury and hourihane are in then the creativity is much improved.
  7. One of whom he'd put money on being hourihane.
  8. Villa transfers was right with his medical today news and is now saying 2 other medical s are booked for Friday and Saturday with villa closing in on multiple deals - seems good news finally about to come our way .
  9. We've got till noon tomorrow for him to be free to play against Preston . Hopefully other deals are close too.
  10. Been going to the villa since late 70s but the best atmosphere I saw ever was the European game between Scotland and holland in 96 - the place was literally shaking with the noice created . as for fans roaring the team now - its hard to do so when some players stroll around looking like they couldn't give a toss.
  11. Not sure the price will fall - Gibson is a shrewd operator like levy and will squeeze every penny he can get from us - if we get Rhodes I'd expect we will have to offer them what they want - they are under no pressure to sell.
  12. Karanka has apparently said he can go but not unless they get the asking price - watch this space .
  13. Wouldn't surprIse me If thiS one went down to deadline day and we see who blinks first - with the Bristol city game now off next week I'd expect this one to run on to the wire . with sheff weds away at Brighton we could get the gap back to 7 points this weekend and hopefully back in the hunt .
  14. Promotion within 2 years and we give boro an extra £2m is fair enough - wouldn't pay more than £7m now .
  15. On a scale of 1 to 10 i would say about 7 - right more often than wrong but he does get it wrong on occasions . he may be sayIng villa had a bid turned down for Rhodes which many seem to be reporting but who knows if we will up that bid - doubt pat does.
  16. Decent finisher providing he has the players to create those chances - hopefully we will get them in as well.
  17. Rather get both now for a combined £4.5m and launch a late play off bid.
  18. I'd snatch their hands off if offering £12m for ayew
  19. It's definitely hourihane https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/2644464/aston-villa-transfer-news-conor-hourihane-barnsley/
  20. Suggestions he wanted him on loan but now has accepted it has to be a permanent deal for boro to do business.
  21. Birmingham Mail are reporting we have now made a bid for jordan Rhodes - slowly but surely things are starting to happen .
  22. The guy is very reliable - never wrong yet - as soon as he knows the name for tomorrows medical he will post it - 100% on the money all the way so far .
  23. Barnsley have already sold a player to arch rivals sheff weds last week so I doubt selling hourihane now would bother them if the money is right.
