GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 13 hours ago, John said: Gallagher would be the option that I would go for if we are up for spending £7m on another striker. He is big, wins balls in the air for fun and he scores goals as well. It is a pity that Chelsea have loaned Abraham to Newcastle but there must be other strikers that could do a job for us on loan at top six PL clubs and offer another option if Bruce doesn't fancy Sanogo or if he doesn't fancy B6. Wouldn't know about potential loanees from the PL, but Omar Bogle (Wigan) or Oli Watkins (Exeter) have both been talked about and seem to have the attributes for that kind of striking role.

alreadyexists Posted June 7, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted June 7, 2017 Linked to Jackson Irvine from Burton Albion. Link to Birmingham Mail Quote Burton Albion midfielder Jackson Irvine is a target for Aston Villa , according to reports in Australia. The attacking midfielder impressed for the Brewers as they sealed the unlikeliest of Championship survivals last season, scoring 10 goals in the process. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's part of the curse of Championship football, I don't seem to know anything about the other teams or their players. Looks like he had a good season last year stats wise, before that he's played a bit and scored a couple of goals a season... but I suppose he is 24 now, so back when he played for Ross County he would've only been 22/23.

Ponky Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Irvine yes please. Would work quite nicely in a three with Hourihane and Lansbury. He's got a great engine and loves to get into the box and score a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Interesting that Curtis Davies and Huddlestone have release clauses (750k and 2 million). Wonder who else from the relegated clubs we could snatch with a release clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 We could have done a lot more than bring Curtis Davies back, matured as a player and a leader, but I imagine his salary is decent to be fair and we aren't shelling out those wages without shifting people on first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adbo9 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Curtis Davies has signed for Derby for 500K............. not a bad signing for them Wouldn't surprise me to see us go for Huddlestone........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would have been a great addition. Can't imagine his salary would have been too much though, especially if he was willing to drop down a level.

Do you not think Villa have a younger version in Landsbury? Davies would have been a cracking signing at Championship level and for not a lot of money too.

I am just speculating based on the fact he was club captain ( I believe ) and for a while was a major part of their success, I imagine he would have been on a good salary. £35k + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
