Premier league potential options !! An extensive list of players and options I've done my research and here it is!

Contract expiry 2017 so perhaps a few of these as loan or buy. Or sign in summer.
There's also players who  having little game time contract not expiring 2017

Firstly the players who played  /signed  under Bruce out of contract end of season 16/17

Snodgrass-
Robertson -
Michael Dawson
Jake Livermore
Shaun Maloney
George Boyd-
Seb Larrson-
Shaun Maloney
Frazier campbell- Bruce 1st signing at sunderland

Next  is a list of Midfielders 2017 that potentially could sign  out of contract
Obi Mikel
Schweinsteiger
Gareth Barry !! :)
Grant Leadbitter
Chris brunt
Charlie Adam
Joe ledley
Carrick

And here are a couple of others out of contract who could cover short term or loan
Glenn Johnson
Phil bardsley
Zabeleta
Sagna

Now these below are just general and not contract expiry bit more lack of first team action:

Players not getting game time

Trippier spurs  -
Mcmannan-wba
Sakho palace -
Mutch palace -
Gibson Everton
Tom Carroll spurs
Nathan Dyer swansea
Marriapa -Watford
Depay-man Utd
Ben Watson- Watford
Robson Kanu -wba
Nugent -Middlesbrough
Rhodes- Middlesbrough

Finally GK back up or compete options!
Speroni palace out of contract not in top 2 choices
McGregor hull - been injured but David Marshall brought on as number 1
Jankopic-hull is not first choice
Pantillmon -Watford not first choice
Myhill-wba not first choice

Wayne Hennessey out of contract in summer

Before/during the Caerdydd game, I didn't hear any mention of Ross by anyone in my little group in the LTR. No questioning why he wasn't in the squad or saying that its a shame he's not available.

Potential to turn in to a very forgettable player for Villa


EDIT "Now" should have read "No"

Well when the African guys are away Ross will have a good opportunity to prove us wrong but so far I am not impressed.

I believe that he was suspended for the Brighton game, available for Cardiff and picked up an injury prior to the game.

How much would we get for McCormack, half of what we paid? Depressing...let's hope he comes good in January when he should get a run in the team.

Would Fulham have him back? Maybe we could use him and some money to get Tom Cairney.

Gareth Barry in January
« Reply #297 on: December 08, 2016, 05:26:53 PM »
Now 36 still struttering his skills at the highest level.  Apparently will be available  as not tied to any contract.

Better than  Westwood. 

My thoughts good short term solution, a kind of Warnock coming together.

He doesn't but pretty sure he can.  He is a talented player.
