I don't have quotes to hand but pretty sure he wanted out, to be honest I don't think he ever settled and that he couldn't replicate the kind of form he'd shown elsewhere (and continued to show for Colombia) indicated to me that all wasn't well with him. I get the feeling that he jumped at the chance of joining Fiorentina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to disrupt a winning squad too tremendously, if we continue doing well under Bruce then I'd like to see us try for a RB, CB and 1-2 CM's. If we ended up signing 50% of that I'd be content.

jacketspuds Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 We are extremely weak in CM. A RB and LB (if Amavi is not going to be playing) should also be a priority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With ACN, our midfield weakness and Bruce you'd assume wanting to change things a little I think that is realistic. Wouldn't be surprised if we look at loans though particularly for cover for the strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El-Reacho Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Maybe he'll go for Andrew Robertson - the Scottish left back from Hull. Has looked impressive playing for Scotland. Amavi could move further forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he sees a weak midfield or not? I suspect he would like more options there. We've been tight and protected the back four more than before he arrived but it's still the weakest part of our squad. We lack numbers and we lack real quality. I'd be very surprised if he didn't look to do something about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 As suggested I think we would be better off looking to get some quality loans in, no need to hamper ourselves down with a certain level of player until we (fingers crossed) get back to the BIG TIME!

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Cheeky loan bid for Adama, seems he was "sensational against Arsenal". Wonder if we have a buy back, then again would that be back to Barca or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn1982 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Carl Jenkinson is playing for Arsenal tonight he'd be a good loan option in Jan. Hopefully a few PL teams drop out of Europe as that'll open up moves for there squad players. We'll be in a very good position to lead an a few if we are challenging as it'll be good experience for any youngster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Danny Ings - on loan ? Or is he injured once more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Great shout....he's on the bench for Liverpool tonight so is fit but doesn't figure in Klopp's plans. We have enough strikers though so yes you'd think 2-3 that will be coming in will be at least one midfielder and another defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphan04 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Think we would need a striker on loan to cover for ACN-weren't we linked with Rhodes a couple weeks ago? Depth in midfield is probably the no. 1 priority then maybe a center half(that can play right back or left back). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
