rodders0223 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 We are a very poor outfit, unfortunately Kodjia isn't going to do this every week. We need quality in the door first week of January. Dicking around for a month and waiting on deadline day and we will either get cut adrift further or fail to make any progress at all. We cannot leave it all to do in the final few months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that the identities are public knowledge yet (unless I've missed it) but Bruce confirmed in a pre match interview last week that one signing was as good as done, and another was virtually there.

KJT123 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Gollini Jenkinson Chester Baker Amavi Hourihane Jedinak Bacuna Adomah Kodjia Grealish Looks an instant improvement, add another quality CM to replace Bacuna and we'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Really important that we focus on midfield players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 id like to see us play four in midfield, not two, not one, not three but four please so we need a central midfielder and a left winger please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Definitely a couple of bodies needed for midfield 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Just read Snodgrass is out of contract end of season. Paper seems to think 4m would be enough to get him. Would certainly take him. Good cross and set pieces and think he'd compliment Adomah's pace on the other side so we might actually start to have a competent midfield. Wouldn't just be a signing for the championship, he can still influence games at prem level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 So it's soon January - time to bring in the new midfielders!! And a new central defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dn1982 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 MY wishlist is in Jenkinson Johnstone Hourihane Brady and Rhodes. 3 Loans. Sell Gestede Kozak and Richards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AValon Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Loan striker, plus the two already 'over the line'. Then we need two more; a decent left sided midfielder with a cross on him and a playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnock1984 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 1st XI (Johnstone) (Jenkinson) Chester (New) Amavi Adomah Jedi (New) (New) Kodjia Ayew 2nd XI Gollini Hutton Elphick Baker Cissoko Bacuna Westwood Gardner Grealish Gestede McCormack The rest can go if we can find a buyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's tied with Chester and Kodjia for our player of the season so far IMO. We desperately need centre mids. At least 2 as it seems Tish has been completely frozen out. After that I'm not too fussed unless they are a clear improvement, I would say Gollini is not for Bruce and then Hutton is next on the block. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
