villan-scott Posted July 4, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 4, 2016 If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you always got. Thankfully we haven't got the people doing things we've always done, so keep the faith, I'm sure RDM has the backing and knows what and who he needs to bring in.

sir_gary_cahill Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Has anyone seen Tshibola play? If so, can they give a brief summary of his playing strengths and weaknesses please? I haven't seen him play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Never seen him play but it was Clarke who brought him into the first team at Reading. I've seen a few references to him having steal and being tough tackling. Was apparently very impressive on loan at Hartlepool, when he joined they looked certain for relegation, and played a big part in helping them stay up.

Demitri_C Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Quote Aston Villa make £5million bid for Reading midfielder Date published: Monday 4th July 2016 12:49 Aaron Thshibola: Midfielder has caught the eye at Reading Aston Villa have made a £5million bid for sought-after Reading midfielder Aaron Tshibola, sources have told TEAMtalk.com. Tshibola made his breakthrough for the Royals last season and his performances have caught the eye of the likes of Crystal Palace, Norwich and Celtic. Norwich are understood to have made a £2million move the 21-year-old last month, but Villa are now favourites to land the England youth international, who was previously on trial at Manchester United. However, new Reading boss Jaap Stam is loathe to lose Tshibola, and expressed his desire to keep the youngster last week. “His future is here with us, I don’t want him to leave and I have spoken to the club. He’s a young player with so much quality. He needs to stay at Reading,” he said “He’s the kind of player we want to keep at the club, you don’t want to sell them. Maybe clubs would be tempted if a certain offer came in but I’ve spoken to the owners and told them I don’t want to sell and that he needs to stay. “Of course, it’s up to Aaron as well, but you know how football works. There are a lot of agents involved and everybody is looking after their own interests. “A lot of rumours come from that but for me he is going nowhere, he is staying at the club.” How good is he?

Donniewyer Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 I'm not worried about players coming in, its players whom haven't gone out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 If we want to get promoted next season we actually need to sign some players capable of that task. So I'd say that's more important than getting rid of anyone who Di Matteo doesn't want. Unless of course Xia has said that we have to sell before we can buy.

rodders0223 Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 £5m for players from Reading I have never even heard of. Lord have mercy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godders Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Players going out i would expect to be the last thing to happen this window. Given their performances, it's unlikely we'll get many bids for them, and we're not going to buy out any contracts until RDM is happy he has the cover he needs in those positions. Regarding players coming in, it probably takes 4-6 weeks to negotiate most transfers end to end. Since most non-international players have only been back in training for a week or two, now is not the time to start panicking. Chill out and see where we are in a couple of weeks.

vandaq Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 A little underwhelmed so far, thought we would have done more business by now. Still much time so I am not concerned yet. Get the feeling that there will be a lot of changes either way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marley the Bognor Villan Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Patience my friends. Perhaps the players we want to talk to havent yet returned from the Euro's! We will have to wait until Germany are out... ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_c Posted July 4, 2016 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Or maybe they're all from Chelsea and we have to wait for Conte to get there to start letting them go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
