Dave-R Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 well it looks like Cahill has told Southgate that's it on his England career, wonder if there could be a chance of us getting him to drop down, wonder if his announcement to southgate has anything to do with a move to villa and he is thinking of dropping down?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) Seriously what the hell is going on at Villa? Are you telling me there is no centre half in the world available to loan that is better than Jedinak?? Is there any other club in this league that only has one established, recognised centre half in the squad? I though starting last season with one left back was bad. Now we’re just taking the piss. Edit: just remembered we have Elphick. Edited August 28, 2018 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Supposedly Shane Long will be allowed leave Southampton. He's had a bad year or so but I think he would be a great partner up front for Kodjia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll need to ask the EFL for special dispensation in order to field 12 men for Bruce to play 2 up front. And even then if we could play 12 players he'd probably try and find a formation that would allow us to play an extra (third) right back (and still have someone who isn't a right back playing at right back) instead.

PieFacE Posted August 28, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) I think Shane Long would be awful. Would be another Hogan. I don't know why we don't sign a big physical striker who will try and get on the end of all the crosses we do? Our whole game plan is get the ball out wide and whipping it in. Get Cheick Diabate in on loan. Edited August 28, 2018 by PieFacE 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Made In Aston Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 For Bruce's formation to have the a chance of working we need a strong mitrovic-esque target man who will stay fairly central. Kodja on his own keeps going in the channels and isn't particularly great at holding the ball up to bring the midfield into play. No doubt Bruce will sign the smallest, weediest striker then either play long balls to him or put him in goal. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Kodjia to bang them in, I know Long wouldn't score 20 goals or anything but he chases everything down, runs the channels and is great in the air, he would be a great foil for Kodjia at this level and would get 10+ goals himself imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfcwills10 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 What do we do now though? Reality is he's probably going to want 2 more signing, if they're having doubts do they back him?! Catch 22 for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 So I imagine a flurry of players going out on loan now that we no longer really have a need for this bloated squad? 30 something senior players and 18 can be named in the match day squad.

El-Reacho Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 We've made a bid for Harold Moukoudi from LeHavre apparently - £1m loan fee with £7m option to sign. French Football Weekly have just retweeted that and are pretty reliable. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
