Well we currently have old legs at centre back in Jedinak or Elphick on the bench. I would rather have the old legs of John Terry over both of these options. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted August 21, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2018 If we do manage to get Bolasie, Ojo, Targett and Abraham we will be looking pretty formidable. Apart from centre back... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoughboroughLion Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 2 hours ago, av1 said: If thats the case (i not doubting you btw), and given that he is currently without a club, he seems to have 3 choices. 1) pay cut. 2) Move abroad. 3) Retire. I guess we'll find out soon enough. (2) don’t think he would given his kids are pretty set here and his daughter plays for Chelsea and is trying to make it in women’s football - if I’m not mistaken (3) he’s already said he wouldn’t, so that’s clearly not the desire. so that leaves (1), if (a) he doesn’t want to, see above and maybe he’ll reassess or (b) there’s another option without a pay cut, why hasn’t that happened yet? The above leaves me to believe if we wanted him, he would be here. It’s a really interesting scenario. Those saying move on - how on earth would we do that now? Our only option would be a loan, and that’s pointless given Tuanzebe is the best it gets in that category. In sum, sign JT up (providing it doesn’t bankrupt us!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from centre back... Agree I would far rather a CB than Ojo (if indeed Bolasie is coming in). We don't need both. I hope Tuanzebe gets a chance tomorrow though.

Villan4Life Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) Oliver McBurnie (Swansea) is turning into one good player!! improved ten fold since going to Barnsley on loan last season! 9 in 17 there. Before that he was a very average young player We was linked with him before he went to Swansea but ended up bringing Grabban instead on loan 2 tonight against team he support and born in "Leeds" Think he has 4 already in championship now and their main striker i'd like Villa to look at him again if we get promoted!!

Villan4Life Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Loved Bolasie years ago when he was at Palace but i worry with the injury he had since moving to Everton. Worry because of the injuries that seems to occur a lot with most of our squad usually whilst training at Bodymoor that he will spend a lot of time on treatment table! Debatable whether he could get back to his best when he is nearly 30 and relied a lot on pace Is there anyone else on here having doubts about him moving to us or just myself? lol Rate him a lot but that was least 2 years ago!!

Made In Aston Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 The way people seem concerned about bolasie's injury you would think we are looking to sign him on a 5 year deal! It's a loan. If he is shit then I'm sure we can cancel it in Jan and get a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll probably be paying for his kids college education and dry cleaning even if he doesn't sign for us on loan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
