I don't see villa selling Albert Adomah to Leeds today .rumour or otherwise . Makes no sense selling best players.

3-5-2 or other wise!

I have him as someone who is very capable in league and gets us goals
He's very variable and seemed, last season, to run out of steam.

Who isn't variable at this level if not higher.

Cant expect Salah levels or Messi however he did show this running out of steam but acknowledgement to his goal scoring threat as well as delivering .

I think Bruce has to freshen up a lot more so hopefully AA won't get fatigued

I'd like to keep him, he scores goals which is what it's all about really.

Quite, would seem a bit daft to sell him to a rival unless we're really on an FFP tightrope.

The owners have said they want a young squad, the owners get a young squad.
He'll be either be loaned out with the option to buy in August or sold in January I reckon.

I do if we get somebody better and younger on loan, but until then you are probably right

I imagine Bruce will want three wingers to rotate so we'd need to get two in

Can't see it happening

Albert could play wide right or up front . I think Green should be given a go rather than waiting for  cup tie and would actually use both of them in match v wigan on either flank.

Be ruthless and move Elmo out .

Can't see that happening and more think about it more see pretty similar team.

One way change occur if formation is changed today v wigan (or during match)

The injury he had (in February?) knocked him back and never got back to his best after that.

Was said to be used as a right side player when he came on? Was that the case though I not sure Bruce wants to use him and green at same pitch time unless pushing for goals and ended up taking Greeny off shortly after

That should always be the case though - pushing for goals!

I think Adomah will be competitive in getting a place in team providing that Bolasie comes in as well as already signed ElGhazi.

Even though he's not left footed Adomah has shown he can score and assist from the left side.

I imagine his levels and stats are good but the extra pace of new wingers coming in will add dimensions that much needed .

He also doesn't seem so robust so it's right to have other players in squad who can play the wide role.

I hope we keep him involved and not let him to a rival

If Bolasie happens I wouldn't be overly surprised to see Adomah loaned out to someone with a view to them buying him in the summer.

He's been absolutely useless since the Wolves game (ish)

I don't know what's happened to him, possibly complacency knowing he'll start every week or whatever. But he's gone right down the pon.

His touch is atrocious and crossing not much better.  I'll admit his goals were very useful last season but even then I dont think he wasn't actually playing that well.

His career best patch in terms of goal scoring was a perfectly understandable statistical possibility in a career where he averages around 10 goals a season.

The chances of him doing it again are virtually non-existent.

For me it is pretty simple. When he has a decent full back behind him-he will play well.
