It actually is an article saying Hull are joining the race for Kodjia. So in a roundabout way, he is maybe liking it because if Hull land him...well then we have a much better shot at... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJim Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 All seems to be going round in circles to me. I just wish I could forget how certain I was that we were going to sign a top striker (or at least Adebayor) this time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirk Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 11 hours ago, Daweii said: In a way I was expecting Hernandez to come alive once we lost. Much of our big spending has come after poor performances. We get rocked by Luton and then seemingly switch policy to buying the league. We lose to Bristol and now it seems the £20 mill for Hernandez is now no longer too much.. Maybe this loss won't be too bad in the grand scheme of things after all if it gets us buying in players vastly too good for this league. Money doesn't always buy you success. It's sort of a 50/50 thing. I know everyone's already said this, but Leicester last season, they had no money whatsoever, and look at them so far this season, as soon as they get a bit of money, they start losing to teams like Hull. Although, Manchester city are a perfect example of how money does mean the majority of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habit Beye was good, he just got dropped and forgot about for a few bad performances, should've got more chances. Senderos was never intended to be first team, just a backup anyway.

KSV Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 (edited) not a fan of us signing Kodjia. Seems like a one off Gestede style season. For 20 million surely theres a decent proven goal scorer in Europe we could get. Edited August 30, 2016 by KSV 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 looks like RDM is boxing hull city into a corner by threatening to buy their hernandez replacement abidja , or whatever his name is hull needs to understand that hernandez is basically telling them to **** off and let him join villa. they should cash in, cuz they run a bare bones operation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
