Am I right in thinking that bolasie plays for Ivory Coast?
Wonder if Kodja has had a word with him.



22 Aug 2018 02:12:01
If kodjia has had a word, then bolasie will be joining the can't-be-arsed contingent of players at villa park, i do believe kodjia is the president in charge as well, the lazy feck!



22 Aug 2018 09:18:43
Bolasie plays for Congo

Your close but not quiet right, say what you see 😂.



21 Aug 2018 18:15:45
Going by my posts I must be talking with myself,
Is there anybody out there!



21 Aug 2018 18:50:10
Nothing to talk about bob, we are going over the same ground time and time again, and it`s all speculation mate.
We need something fresh to talk about, something definite.



21 Aug 2018 18:14:11
This julio tavares who again we are linked with could well be worth a punt.
He is 29 yr but has a 1 in 3 goal record in France and would cost around 3mill,
Abrahams can't make up his mind about dropping into championship so why not go elsewhere,
He is a very physical guy who could be a success in championship,
Bruce tried to get him in summer window but failed so I would try again,
Shame he is not younger but you can't have everythink.



21 Aug 2018 22:49:41
He looks decent tbh, definitely built for the championship

UTV.



21 Aug 2018 18:02:09
Could you see marcus maddison coming on loan?
I like this kid and I would prefer to see him come over bolasie,
Was supprised he did not go in summer window,



21 Aug 2018 16:43:41
Would not supprise me if we got rid of adomah.



21 Aug 2018 13:38:32
Why don't we try an get bolasie an woods both would be great signings if boro can tempt him surely villa would appeal to him.



21 Aug 2018 15:03:01
Not convinced by Bolaise, would prefer a younger player with a view to a permanent contract.

Woods would be a significant sign of intend if we could manage it, that would be the best MF in the league, comfortably, if he arrived.



21 Aug 2018 15:53:37
I've always wanted woods for villa,
But now we got mcginn can't see us going for him,
Someone will get a real bargain getting him that's for sure.



21 Aug 2018 16:25:03
I'm not convinced about bolasie either not for 15mill and 70 grand plus a week after loan period,
Plus he is 30 next May and thought we were going down the mean young and hungry route for players, .
But we do have very rich owners now but ffp must be a concern,



22 Aug 2018 10:42:03
Can't have all young players - QPR?



21 Aug 2018 11:46:08
I Personally think its madness to allow hogan to go to one of our rivals .
We are light on the ground now for strikers unless bruce is thinking of bringing in 3 strikers,



21 Aug 2018 13:29:18
Nothing surprises me with bruce anymore, some of his decisions are stupid, we need a cb we have 1 in beadu bruce paid a mil for him why not play him th kids going to be a hell of a cb . _.



21 Aug 2018 15:04:18
I agree Mainbob, only slight logic I can see is perhaps Bruce doesn't fancy Hogan for our system but knows he could thrive, and take points from teams around us, at another team?



21 Aug 2018 09:49:13
It does seem strange that we buy 2 proven goalscorers in the championship yet they both are not doing it for villa,
Mcorkmark and Hogan should be in our squad doing what they do best but!



21 Aug 2018 11:40:15
But they haven't done it for us. Plenty of players just don't work out at different clubs. Veron for Utd, Benteke at Liverpool, Hernandez at West Ham. Will Hughes has struggled since leaving Derby.
Sometimes players just don't fit certain clubs.



21 Aug 2018 13:33:57
Will hughes been injured that's why it hasn't worked.



Review Of The Day 21st August 2018

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Review Of The Day 21st August 2018

A couple of weeks ago when dr. xia was still the owner and we looked like the sky was caving in, some questioned whether bruce would stay, he did, and he persuaded the likes of grealish and others to keep the faith, and behold, we now have new owners, as for wrong formations etc, i think a big problem is that we have TOO MUCH choice, mad though that seems, when a squad is smaller its more settled, and it builds its own rythm, i think with so many players the choice causes bruce to sometimes play someone who may have been great in training during the week, but isn't in the groove on match day, hence no rythm or understanding sometimes, look at any squad that is winning and its consistently the same 7-9 players who make up the nucleus of the team barring injuries etc, so maybe loaning some players out doesn't make sense, but it may improve our consistency, let the pelters begin! -and by the way, we're 2 points off the lead, hardly end of the world territory, lighten up fellas, there's a long season ahead!



21 Aug 2018 07:53:10
I agree we are only 2 points of the lead teams,
By the way Bolton are also with us at top end of table,
What I'm saying we could quite as easily be near the bottom given our luck in winning the 2 games.
I keep saying bruce gets my backing but it's wearing thinner by the week seeing the same inept performances and the same after games speech by bruce,
The Brentford game will tell us how far we have come.
They have played us off the park now for many games now and If we sit off them again we will lose the game in my opinion
Get stuck into them and I give villa a winning chance,
