TrentVilla Posted April 8, 2017 Moderator Share Posted April 8, 2017 I think we will target the following as our main areas to improve, GK LW CM Striker Anything on top of that I think will be to replace players that leave that we don't actually wish to sell. As for the ones we do, well there are a few it would be lovely to see if the wage bill like Gabby and Micah but highly unlikely to happen. But we have been a whole lot better at moving players on under Wyness and co than we were under the last lot of clowns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of departures if we can offload Gil, Veretout, Sanchez, Amavi and McCormack as well I'll be delighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent (and anyone else who cares to answer me) do you think a clean sweep is best in terms of getting rid of those loaned out at the moment (Gil, Sanchez, Veretout, etc.)? Or do you think there's a benefit in keeping any of them? Are they all lost causes? Edited April 8, 2017 by alreadyexists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 We really need another DM Look how we folded this season when Jedinak was injured 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note I'm sure I read somewhere (can't find link now), that Bruce has said 3/4 in, 8/9 out. So out I'm thinking: Gil Sanchez Veretout Bunn Elphick Grealish maybe? Not sure who else 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 If Sanchez was to return we would have 2 players in him and Jedi who could alternate in DCM and also if need be as CB cover. Both have played there this season. Think this would have been a good solution for us but I can't see it happening for various reasons. Mainly that I think Sanchez will remain in Italy.

Didn't Sanchez have a clause that would trigger his permanent move to Italy once a number of games had been played? He must have hit that now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Wonder if we could tempt Tom Ince of Derby don't go up themselves. Pit of pace.. 12 goals 6 assists. Add a bit of something to our go forward. We need a new CB if we don't play on Jedinak playing there. Also need a new DM as Jedinak can't play every game and if injured.. new goalkeeper. 4 I would bring in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have to be a 433 player though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Eastie Posted April 8, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 8, 2017 Gareth Barry reportedly would love to end his career at villa - could still do a job for us next year and would probably be available as he's no longer a regular starter at goodison . 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
