He (Tishbola) missed most of last season through injury, and has missed the start of this season for the same reason. Not claiming he'll continue to stay injured, but he has been plagued by injuries, will need time before he is up to full speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzap24 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I'd get Robson Kanu in on a free to bolster the forward line a bit. Not a top class signing by any means, but Championship experience and better than the options we currently have on the bench. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Well one positive... If we were preparing to spend 20m on a striker while we're a championship club...how much will we be signing players for when we finally get back to the premier league...40m, 50m? Be interesting...let's hope we get up before too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about his record, but as a squad member I think he could be quite effective. At the moment we have nothing on the bench. Get a quality number 9 and AM/wide man, with this guy as back up. Another 'man' with good experience in the squad too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, I'd swap him for Valencia leaving us the same amount of cash to buy the others we need! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Adomah is rapid and will offer us something different. I'm in two minds on Ayew. He's clearly one of, if not, our most talented player but he also frustrates and is too **** greedy. All he had to do was square it to Ross the Boss and the game was won yesterday. By the way, we could sign all the strikers in the world but it won't matter if we have that plonker in between the sticks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonkertonk Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Adomah and Kodija, my money would be on, as our final 2 signings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted August 28, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Anyone else think it seems like a few players don't want to give it to McCormack, I thought I was imagining it at home to Huddersfield and Rotherham, but yesterday (only saw like 2 min of highlights tbf) it seemed the same. Anyone else noticed or am I seeing something that's not there? He seems to be in great positions often begging for the ball but the players pass sideways or to someone in a worse position? Edit: sorry wrong thread, I'll take it to the RMC thread. Edited August 28, 2016 by alreadyexists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recruitment is going to be a big part of his job. I wonder if he is to blame for Gollini. Even if he is, it's RDM who chooses to persist with playing him.

Shame we have to move onto target 2. Let's hope it's a player of the same calibre, otherwise Tony's world class comment is going to make him look like a bit of a tit. Why are we / would we spend so much on him? 20 goals last year in the championship but what else? Didn't Gestade get more than that? If he had scored 20 goals for last 3 seasons I could understand such a price tag but seems nuts for someone who could well be a 1 season wonder.
