Demitri_C Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) I can't see bolaise coming here either. I can see ojo tho yo. It won't take much for ojo to get ahead of the useless adomah though so we can afford Liverpool's "fine" terms Edited August 20, 2018 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thems the breaks. If they don't want to drop down to do what they love then screw 'em and move onto the next. exactly that, hasn't even made a bench in everton's 2 games this season, if he wants to play football take the loan, if he doesn't want to play football then he's a bad egg anyway if he goes on loan to boro then maybe be a bit fussed, if he stays at everton then forget him 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously his star has fallen since then but if he hasn't lost too much pace and trickery he could be amazing for us. Got a pretty bad injury in fairness. Question is if he still has the pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't take much for ojo to get ahead of the useless adomah though so we can afford Liverpool's "fine" terms If the sounds coming from the local papers are correct about Bolasie, then Ojo sounds a better option to me anyway. I don't want someone who feels he is above the championship, I want someone who is eager to improve and impress. Plus I have never really been that impressed with Bolasie, yes he has fancy tricks and looks flash but is he just a show pony? With YB lack of game time and big wages recently, is he going to have the hunger to come here and do the business? We have been burnt too many times with this kind of signing in recent years, which is why I am nervous about YB. Looking at his Wiki page, the last time he played a decent amount of games was three seasons ago now. I am getting the Ireland/Richards vibe about this signing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowlersrs Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Cahill Bolasie / Oil Targett I'm in dream land.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairdo Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Think it'll be Ojo. Has to be loan to buy so I don't think Liverpool would need to put any playing clauses into the deal if we're going to sign him in January anyway? Targett was a regular for Fulham so must be half decent but can't say I noticed him much in the play-off final. He's a left back though and we are in desperate need so would be a great signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted August 20, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 20, 2018 Seems to be a lot of talk about ojo atm. It may all be coming from that Mirror journalist, but hows he been on loan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimlico_Villa Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I didn't know Bolasie was a Full Back? Unless he is a Full Back don't see why Bruce would be interested. Unless he can play as GK as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnmacf Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Bolassie has come up through the ranks of English football including a fair spell at Championship level. I can’t see why he would be that opposed to ‘drop down a level’, unless he’s seriously arrogant which I don’t believe he is. There was a short documentary about him in the FA Cup Final programme when Palace reached it a few years back. He seems to have come from nothing so you would expect he’s fairly grounded. May not even see it as dropping down. Would help him get fitness/form back playing at a slightly lower level. Also I don’t think Villa would be a step down from Everton in terms of facilities etc. We’ll see what happens but I can’t see any major barriers. If he wants to play, it’s a good option for him.

He once played 10 minutes in goal for Hillingdon borough in the FA Vase, so obviously our new no.1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie09 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Pal of mine is a Palace STH and he’s always maintained Bolasie is a better player than Zaha. The injury he picked up was a ruptured PCL if I remember correctly which is worse than a ruptured ACL so he may never get back to the level he was at before the injury.

It may all be coming from that Mirror journalist, but hows he been on loan? not seen him play but he started 18 games for fulham last year, scored 4 and got 2 assists, not sure he's the answer based on that, you then throw in the question of does he block andre green (who doesnt look ready IMO) for a year only to then go back to liverpool and never be seen again or is there a chance of us getting him on a loan to buy (he's 21 already, not making it at liverpool) if its deal where we keep him then maybe worthwhile, giving a not quite ready liverpool player game time experience over our own not quite ready players is a no from me, on paper he looks like the onomah deal 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
