like this, young hungry players with something to prove.

I thought we'd tried that one already?

Not a comment on Ayew, more on the young and hungry thing.

Now compare that video to Rudy Gestede and its a world of difference - I like the look of him

Sherwood....A message needed

Highlight reel and from what I've seen and heard of him he sounds like a decent acquisition. Not totally convinced he will ever score >15 goals a season though.

Seems like a replacement for Gabby/Weimann at our inside forward/wide striking poistions.

Him and Sinclair, with Adebayor it would seem. Kozak and Gabby backing up, Grealish and Gil to complete the set.

Maybe we've adopted the third pillar of the approach, young, hungry and talented.

I think that might be it in terms of a permanent deal for a striker - Adebayor will probably come in on loan. I have no idea what he's like, but then I didn't have a clue who Benteke was either. If he's anywhere near as effective, let alone prolific, then that'll be great.

I think we should resist putting the weight of replacing Benteke on his shoulders. Most of us will admit that Benteke is one of the top five strikers at villa park over the last 40 years. We simply won't replace him with anyone of similar quality...it's just reality.

There were, however, plenty of teams that finished above us with strikers nowhere near as good as Benteke.

Have to be honest don't know much about him. Not going to waste my time on the you tube as them video's can make anyone look world class.
if he is talented then hats off to Sherwood.  Great to see bringing in young , hungry and talented players in at last.

Wasn't his brother who went to Swansea supposed to be the better of the two?

I think I've seen him playing in the African Cup of Nations and for Marseille, although trying to make sure I'm not confusing him with his brother Andre Ayew.

Ayew, don't watch that, watch this.
This is the heavy, heavy monster sound.

The brother is older though.
