Bournemouth are looking a large loan fee on top of his wages. if its him or nothing then take him at this stage, still ive seen this happen past 10 years at Villa.

Dr_Pangloss Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Gibson would be an amazing signing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're both about to enter their primes. Mings' injury history is a concern but Gibson would be a terrific buy, can't see how anyone could complain about it. It's not like he's 32! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less disappointing in every sense of the word than our current options in that position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Loan with option to buy to prove their fitness etc seems fine to me. It's about the best you can expect this late on in the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 1 hour ago, GENTLEMAN said: Do you have children? I can only sympathise with him as being a single parent myself, and having to consider the geography of my employment very carefully. Not seeing your children grow is soul destroying. I’m not privy to all the information but just from the article I read on 442; to my knowledge and from the outside looking in he has acted nothing but professionally. When called upon has always been available and has not missed training sessions or kicked up a fuss. Sometimes we forget that footballers are humans and have commitments outside of work. He’s just requested a transfer to be closer to his daughter. I don’t see how that’s being a ‘baby’, it just simple logistics and taking responsibility of being a parent. Maybe, It’s more synical but from the limited information at my disposal he’s doing right by him and his family and not disrespecting Newcastle in any way. Understood. However, one would assume he knew where Newcastle was before he agreed to join? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I'm wondering where hause fits in if we were to sign one or both? I'd assume we are targeting only one of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you haven't considered that Austin could be back up this season as Hogan and Davies could be going out on loan this window?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
