briggaman Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Villa Transfers said the medical would be today. They might still be right as it is only 7:45am. Many hours to go. Probably just wishful thinking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So which one is it, are you moaning because we aren't makimg any signings because if we were then we would have done by now. or are you moaning because the signings we are trying to make aren't the ones you want. Everybody would love to find players like Kodgia for £2.5M, but for every Kodgia there are at least 10 Helenius's, it's not just a problem for Villa. Modern fans are the reason it is a problem, players aren't given time to adjust, and for foreign players in particular it takes time to adjust to a new league. Signings that fail put managers under pressure and so managers want to buy players that should get quick results. That's the reason that proven goal scorers in particular are in such high demand, there is no guarantee they will repeat previous form, but there is a better chance that players like McCormack and Rhodes will come good than not. incidentally, McCormack will come good in my opinion, he just needs to start a few consecutive games in a team that isn't trying to reignite the career of Gabby. i for one believe we are trying to sign players, and the players we have been linked with seem also to be the right type of players for once. January is a difficult time to be buying, and we just have to be patient. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Geez what time ya'll expect the medical to be... Not even work hours yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure the grand plan is to get both a striker AND a new midfield. You can't really dictate when and how those deals are going to be struck, especially when you are not the only club in for said midfielders. Cart before the horse, we could end up with just a Cart, especially when we have been linked to 2 midfielders for weeks now and there is no change.

theboyangel Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I'm not ITK or anything - I just note that we tend to take our time crossing the t's and dotting the i's and are partial to Friday announcements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaCas Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) I'm finding it hard keeping track of rumours and ins and outs - I used to use NewsNow but it seems eveything I click on there now tries to open hundreds of pop-up windows and freeze my PC. Added to that most of the content looks interesting from the title but when you open it it's mainly clickbait Could anyone give me a quick update of the most current rumours - I know Cissoko has gone and that we are looking at Hourihane, Lansbury and Rhodes but are there any other possibilties that i've missed?
