Wouldn't happen though. The only player I hate too much to have back is Ashley Young after THAT dive against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Luckily he would never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever come back here. Why are we talking about him again? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 If it wasn't clear before (it was), yesterday made it painfully clear we need an entirely new midfield. 3 new central midfielders please. If we are to play 4-4-2/4-4-1-1 (I hope we don't) we need a LW because we haven't got one. Also desperately need a new RB because Hutton, bless his heart he's trying, he just can't cross the ball. The opponents allow him loads of space because they know he's harmless. Allowing them to close down our central and LW players with 2 or more players. It get's a bit better when Adomah is on because he's a threat. But a new RB would transform us. Striker on loan also a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 The only way Delph would be enticed to return to Villa is if he is assured that he is hated enough to the point that he would be pelted on the pitch with coins. That way he can spend the entire game running around the pitch with a sack picking up the money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) No point signing Rhodes either on loan or permanent. We don't need a finisher/poacher type, what we need is someone to create the opportunities for a player like him to finish and poach. Our midfielders are piss poor. I'd look to sign four of them before we start adding to the six strikers we currently have. Oh, and a goalkeeper, because a 21yr old and a midget with a four foot quiff ain't cutting the mustard.

Isn't he always injured anyway? I'm not sure he'd add much drive to the team in that case. We need to move on, try and find the next Delph.

We don't need a finisher/poacher type, what we need is someone to create the opportunities for a player like him to finish and poach. Au contraire. Hear me out... Johnny Kodjia doesn't play well with others. He will of course create chances for himself and win us points out of nowhere, but on several occasions over the last two games he has had the opportunity to play in McCormack for tap ins and he's gone for goal. In my opinion, he's better on the left of a 3 or even a midfield 5, playing a free role to a degree. To do that we need better midfielders yes, to cover for him when he off on one. We don't have anybody to play on the last man through the middle. McCormack would have 6/7 goals by now even with his poor form if he had a strike partner who could do the basics, like open his eyes. He had the same issue with Ayew early in the season. That's not to say I don't rate Johnny Kodjia, only that I think it would be great if we had the option to play as more of a team up front. I think we'd also see the best of McCormack, which will be vital IMO. Edited December 30, 2016 by dont_do_it_doug. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then we can address the fact that Kodija and Ayew simply don't pass the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midfield should be number one priority, but as ever if the opportunity presents itself to improve in other areas we should take it. In whatever order.

Dr_Pangloss Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 We must have one of the worst midfields in the league in terms of its balance, cohesion, and general 'knowing what to do on the ball'. It is downright embarrassing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your bang on the money- we so need a midfielder who can just knit everything together - pull the strings and make us tick over- as I have mentioned I would like to see Tom Carroll come in- I think he's just a squad member at Spurs so I would assume that the chance of game time even on loan would be an upgrade for him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
