sne Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Abel Hernandez starting for Hull today. Although he's probably among the 7 or so players who are match fit for Hull I would guess it means a move is not imminent for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll take players time to gel together - so I hope people don't turn on them and think 'same old Villa.' If we do get all who we are linked with, I think it'll be a better team than the one which got relegated. i don't think fans do turn on any of the managers.....They simply say what they see, game to game. If we say they have played shite.....it could be for a multitude of reasons.....not necessarily blaming the manager every time. Of course we get frustrated and moan, but we don't get to see the "warts and All" so we have to trust their judgment. We are all in this together, we have a common interest, whilst they are employed by AVFC Its just they have the responsibility and authority to take action.....we don't.

TheMightyVillans Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 triple signing announcement just before kick off? that would be something special and could motivate a few players to perform better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people say he was just instructed to sell the club but I do genuinely believe he would have recommended to Lerner the best buyer. We might have been subject of interest from the group who purchased Wolves but at the moment I'm glad they chose Xia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says "I think we may have the No.9 for the incoming striker" That suggests there is an incoming striker. Not 'if' we buy a striker. Anyway, I'm sure we will find out soon enough!

Xela Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 As for the players linked, I'll be honest I know nothing about De Laet but he seems to have a decent pedigree in getting out of the Championship. I'd also buy another CB as I want Richards, Okore and Lescott well away from the first team even if we suffer some injuries! Midfielder wise, Jedinak seems more or less nailed on. He'll add a bit of presence to our powder puff midfield. We do need creativity as well so perhaps Morrison? Linked to Mutch as well Add a striker to the mix like Bamford or Hernandez then we should have a decent team. Maybe lacking a bit of width though?

Xela Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Might not be a popular opinion but I'd look to move Amavi and Ayew on. If we could get good enough prices obviously. Replace Amavi with Rico Henry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
