Medicals are to detect underlying, unknown medical issues. They are not an assessment of how injury prone a player is. The transfer team would already (you would hope) have known about that stuff. You would hope but sadly it seems they didnt know, same as the rumours about Mccormacks disruptive influence at Fulham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Another joke signing and huge waste of money. Another example of the disconnect that exists between who the manager is and the type of player we are signing. Another example of how a fool and his money are easily parted and why this club is struggling with FFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) Looking like it's just not meant to happen. He's gone from a super sharp, ruthless goalscorer at Brentford, to a fairly ponderous, leggy looking centre forward who is seemingly never far from a niggling injury.

AshVilla Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Can't get in the team ahead of a novice. Either he's shite or the manager wants to completely destroy any confidence he has in himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Deserved to be dropped. I'd have liked to see him next to Davis though, I think a front 2 is the only way he works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time he gets on it could be too late and game lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 For whatever reason, he hasn't worked in Bruce's formations so far, so if Bruce aint changing probably best to give someone else a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 (edited) Did he not come off against Reading because of an injury? Looked that way. Edited August 19, 2017 by sexbelowsound 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic_bouma Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 We know he's not shite. He was great at Brentford. He isn't a lone striker though. There is no doubt in my mind he is a victim of Bruce refusing to play 2 up front. At Wigan, SHA, Sunderland and Hull Bruce loved 442. He comes to Villa and suddenly thinks he has the nous to do something different. He's clueless. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
