If somebody had said at the start Kodija would miss most the start I think most fans would have said even Playoffs was out the question. Its amazing how well we've done without him.

I'd personally try get Gayle from Newcastle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, Wyness did mention that a couple Premier League/shock targets were close. Gayle was superb last season, i think having him almost would guarantee a play off spot minimum. He scores goals and he is different to all our other strikers. If it meant selling Hogan for 9m (if someone would take him) I would rather put that money on gayle and worry about egttimng johnstone in the summer. He has been great but last two games he has shown he still has clangers in him which for premier league level could be a concern. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s 2 years old and the battery is even worse than it was originally. It hasn’t performed well at all since upgrading the iOS. But if that’s what it takes for me to buy a better, newer model then I’m willing to let it go for the same price that I paid for it.

Dr_Pangloss Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I doubt we will see that much of him again, if we go up then he won't be good enough to lead our line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Kodjia will be back in March I reckon. We need another striker regardless as Hogan is obviously ill suited to our style of play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny_Villaman84 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) Ulloa is very good sign as loan in my option, better that Gayle. on paper: in my POV:- if we play sit and counter attack Bruce style: that Gayle good sign better option that Ulloa, yet i not fans of him yet he can bring score in forward, better that no score forward. if we push them forward and play closer to opponent box that Ulloa is better option.. Ulloa is will more dangerous play if Grealish because Ulloa good poacher in box "fox in the box" and good movement, still better option that davis, but he will bring ball to floor to pass around? no, that problem. other option is buy striker if we sell Ross and Hogan, Gabby to fund for buy "NEW" - Deep-lay forward who will move to villa it is will hard find. but we need BUY left back too. Yet better 2 players you names better that nothing. i am try think name who play in HULL under bruce, who he loan from asrenal. what his names? is he avaliable as i impressive him when he play under hull might good option as Bruce know him and he play better under him.
