‏@Dr_TonyXia:   We'll announce the striker in an hour. I think it's the best choice for us !#UTV  @AVFCOfficial

Picking hairs, but I'd prefer it if he was the manager's preference rather than the chairman's.
Pretty much says it's right for 'us'.. being Aston Villa.
I can live with that... although I can see how it could be interpreted.

I think that's probably it, and if we can't at least hit the play off spots with this squad frankly we don't deserve to

Have to wonder what happened to the CM the Dr said we were very close to last week though

When this is all over can we do a poll!
About how happy with signings
Hey footyskillz, why not just do your own Poll?
It's pretty easy.

Yes, another CM who can break up play and link to the forward players would be ideal. No point signing 20 goal a season forwards if we can't get out of our own half once teams start to press us.

Think I make it 13 out including loans (but not any youngsters like Kinsella) and 8 in, so it will take time for this to all come together - need to be patient but expecting us to be Top 6 by Xmas and then push on.

Utility defender and a winger now please.  I would take Robson Kanu on a free so to cover up front and wide positions. Central midfield I would be happy enough if Tshibola is not going to get injured all the time but he did at Reading and has started to here.

From the Norwich Forum....a plea :

"After completing the signing of a striker for the first two years, it seems as if Norwich aren't done yet.
According to the Evening Standard Online, Norwich and Aston Villa are set for a deadline day scrap to sign West Ham and Ecuador striker Enner Valencia on loan.

The article says Valencia will be allowed to leave as long as, as expected, West Ham sign Manchester City forward Wilfried Bony on loan.

Exciting times, and after signing Norwich targets Ross McCormack and Jonathan Kodjia, you could let us have just one, eh Villa? "

...............Godzvilla!

He attracts interest from Hull Tigers FC so we make his day by sending him to the European City of Culture 2017 in part exchange for Robert Snodgrass.

Kodjia as our #9 with McCormack playing just off him as a front two for me. Maybe Grealish in the hole behind with a three man midfield behind him

It doesn't seem that complicated to me. Kodjia and gestede compete for the 9 role. Everyone else as you were
