turvontour Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 At least he's got goals in him! 8 in his last 54 according to Wikipedia. Gabby's got 7...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea great. Perhaps Bruce is going to play the two of them up front together with Micah just on behind . Know what ? The awful awful thing is that if I get there Saturday and he had done that I genuinely wouldn't be the least surprised or shocked. How bad is that ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he likes to keep signing new ones because it keeps restarting the "time to gel" excuse clock. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I hope we can win this weekend and go on a little run and forget this was ever a thing. What a nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Well a Win would constitute a ' run' for us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 On 31 August 2016, in the last day of the pre-season summer transfer window, Panathinaikos officially announced the capture of Samba who signed an one-season contract with the Greens.[37] On 20 January 2017, Samba's contract was dissolved by mutual consent despite joining the club over the summer, as he has been hit with injuries since the start of the 2016-17 season.[38] sounds like a worthwhile signing.

Lunarsea Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 If Samba does get signed, then I'll welcome him as he will now be a Villa player. Being hostile to his arrival or using it as a further excuse to want Bruce sacked just seems a tad counterproductive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Brilliant at Blackburn going back nearly a decade though, when he returned with qpr what, 4 years ago he was absolutely hopeless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIVillan Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I do not see the issue in taking a look at him. He might just be able to do a job for us over next 3 months. Put him on Pay as you Play and see what happens. Just cause he is on a trial doesnt mean he will actually play BUT he was a good defender as people have said and if being part of training he can pass things on that will help. Im not a Bruce fan but beating him with a stick for this is madness, I like the fact he is open to try any option rather than being closed minded about things. Our current coach Colin Calderwood came in as an emergency to cover when Ugo had that eye injury and a defence fell apart. He wasnt the greatest and at end of his career but he did a job. Ronnie Johnson helped us for a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Johnson helped us for a season. Exactly this. From what I've read he's back in the country and wants to get fit, so why not let him train and see what he's got...if anything. I personally don't think we will sign him, but if we did I'm sure it would be as a pure back up measure. I don't get what everyone's getting so upset about, I really don't.

PieFacE Posted February 24, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 24, 2017 He was shit 4 years ago. He's not going to have gotten any better. He will come in, play one game, seem alright, get injured, and will have no impact on our season whatsoever other than earning a wage. If i'm wrong i'll eat my own face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have, but I have been consistent in thinking a couple more, such as another big defensive mid, and another large defender could indeed help us. We should have never NOT had back up/improvement on Jedinak and I feel our team being small has been a problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommo_b Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 He could be good at championship level, no issue with it at all, actually think he could be better then Baker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted February 24, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 24, 2017 Here's a craaaaaaazy idea guys - maybe watch him actually play for villa before dismissing him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
