VillanousOne Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 38 minutes ago, Junxs said: I wouldn't be so sure, Bruce and Wyness keep signing his praises in any interviews I've watched. They truly believe he is good enough for the premier league - he must be putting in some good performances in training as I haven't seen anything in matches. Not sure how you can say this? He's had some very good performances in a Villa shirt, trouble is he's also had some average and awful ones to. Towards the end he seemed to have settled. I would prefer a more experienced keeper, but looks like this is the route we are going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn1982 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Didnt SJ have the most clean sheets in the Championship this year? He is more than good enough for us now and looks to have the potential to get even better so should be good enough for us in the PL. The biggest sign is for the last 1/4 of the season I've not been worried at all about the keeper position and that's something I've not said for a while.

Eastie Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 The johnstone loan deal is now agreed - details on the johnstone thread . He certainly improved as the season ran but I feel we could have done with a more experienced keeper - I really don't rate bunn at all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with his saves.. more to do with a very good defence and Jedinak coming back in. When the shots were peppered on the goals.. he didnt have that many saves. Shots to goals conceded ratio i would love to see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Kendrick's Dentist Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 24 minutes ago, DoubtGin said: news from the doc edit: unless I'm wrong, that makes 98% so someone seems to be close Think he's talking about separate deals bud. One deal 85% done (Elmo?), one deal 99% done (Johnstone?), and 3 deals partly done, only one of which we intend to finalize (Whelan/McArthur/???). Then 6 players we are varying degrees of the way towards selling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Whelan/Elmo switch around? With 6 leaving. 1 likely to leave (Amavi); 3 should be leaving (Gil, Veretout, ?) and 2 potentially (?,?).

Infinte_Pest Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 This bit is getting a little old.Its a bit of a cheap trick ,because really he isn't saying anything other they are trying to sign and sell players . How you want to interpret it, is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 It's gone quiet on the loan signing front which is something that Bruce said we would be making good use of. Johnstone is probably one, but I'd still expect 2 more outfield to go with 2 more permanent signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
