I don't agree how many times has he actually made our match day squad in the league this season ?

Only after we have had a deep injury crisis. My fear is that could happen again.

Ulloja gone to Palace it seems.

Where you seen this ?
Sorry-assumed it would be news. Read it on one of the sites this afternoon. Can't remember which, but it appeared genuine.

Express-if the link works says Ulloja to Palace. Dunno where I got the 'J' from tho'. :)

Ulloa loan would been just the ticket.
Lewis Grabban would do a job but would only like him in short term and think Bournemouth would rather sell him.
Similarly previously mentioned Chris Martin. Just another striker really one to keep in frame to aid promo push.
Batshuayi is probably out of reach but as wyness said he was after players of that ilk.
Calvert-Lewin or Solanke would be worth short term loan and I don't know if Tammy Abraham is our of favor but he would be a great addition to end of season. That said Chelsea should really be recalling him!

Wyness has said the transfer window will be a quiet one for us.

Like a few have said I am cool with a quiet window. We have RHM, Davies and O hare as cover.  Plus gabby will be rolled out in 3 weeks and I suspect Jimmy will make an appearance before the end.

McCormack is back tomorrow, apparently. He’d be good cover if we could his head right.

Good. We don't need disruption  just now.

Seems to have burnt his bridges with Bruce. He was linked with a move to Leeds so maybe he's coming back to be sold on somewhere?

Bruce said Kodjia is very likely done for the season. So I don’t expect to see him again.

I still think we will see a striker arrive before the window "slams shut" (Jim White, SKY Sports).

Think we are reasonably strong in McCormack's best position #10 or #9.5, with Grealish in particular but also Onomah and O'Hare capable of playing there

Unless McCormack begs Bruce for forgiveness, then he is done at Villa Park.

Have a horrible feeling if he went to Leeds or a side near us, he could finish the season very strongly....

"Position #9.5"? Is that a thing now? Wow, football has really been appropriated by the #stattos eh?

I thought a 9.5 was the amplifier Nigel Tufnel used before he got the one that went up to 11.
