Another swap, this time with Kodjia?

Why do you think that?

I may be mis-remembering but Angers wanted Kodj in Jan IIRC

Concerned about centre-forward if Tammy doesn't arrive. I was hoping someone like Maupay or Adams would come in alongside him. Centre-forward is the one area we need someone we know we can depend on.

Saying that, if Mings, Hause, El Ghazi and Jota are in by the end of next week, that puts us in a good position IMO. LB, CB, DM, CM, Winger and 2 x CF as a minimum. A RB and GK if we can get the right ones too. 7-9 more needed.

It’s a balancing act. I’m glad we’re signing(where we have the chance) the loan players who added value. This helps ensure the core spirit of the squad is retained. We can then add a few additions of real quality hopefully.

I didn't say it precluded them Hilts, I just don't get the impression Smith and Purslow will go too far down that route based on what they and Edens and Sawiris have said.
Fair enough.  I think that's limiting our chances though.

I'd agree, it's a risk, but that seems to be the approach they want to take, this stat based whatever-nomics approach.

That sort of deal would be completely out of kilter with what Smith and co have suggested so far.

Mings, Cahill, Maupay, Bowen
After that i think we will pull a few European names in

Other options I could see - Tomori, Konsa, Benrahma

Tammy and Axel are obvious loans in my opinion. 

They’ll do pre-season at their parent clubs and then arrive last back at Villa as the ‘window slams shut’.  Not sure either are ready for Man U/Chelsea but equally they’re potentially too good to be sold so loans are the obvious solution.

Is there a limit to the number of loans you can have in the PL?

I think it's 2 domestic loans.

I agree. Especially Axel. He'll spend pre-season with them, they'll bring in a couple of expensive centre halves and then he'll realise he isn't getting a sniff and be loaned again. Tammy depends on Chelsea's transfer ban.

I would take Tammy’s post today to mean that the chances of him coming back are close to zero.

That does sound like a goodbye.  Disappointed but not gutted.

Shame, but not entirely unexpected.

Thanks for everything and all the best Tammy!
