For such a liberal site, the attitudes to reform are medieval.

the Charlie Adams thing is utter bilge. As to Murray/Ulloa if we sign people like that, we've learned nothing and might as well join a pensioners league. We need pace!

Murray or Ulloa on loan for a season would be just what we need to be honest and we could then put pace in around them.  Signing either of them for decent money and on a long term contract would point to a failure to learn from past mistakes though.

Exactly a big target man to hold up ball.
Have to face it the way Bruce plays these players fit the system and are have technics

Yes loan for either /or !
At most 2 year contract with a year option which we wouldn't take !

Would not be offering a permanent deal to those type of players Skillzy as we would run the risk of being in the same position of having a big earner that we can't shift off the wage bill that we have been in so many times over the last few years .  Murray, Ulloa, Hugill or Wells would all be good loan options for this season.

I like say Ola to Ulloa that would be a great loan I also like people mentioning Tammy Abrahams but I would always call him Tammy Abrahams Lincoln for the craic

Has he though?  This is from a month ago.  His apology for the other stuff was the standard 'Those views do not represent the person I am now' used by everyone who gets caught out that way.  If you thought that was sincere then fair enough; I didn't.

Nothing in that Ryan Woods story.

Tammy Abraham would be my hunch for a centre forward.

I like this hunch too it's something Ethan hunt plays in mission impossible movies .
 Go for Tammy Abrahams Lincoln!

We are talking dream land with Andre Gray he's a competitior for the striker jersey at Watford I don't see him dropping down or Watford releasing .

Having sold the Brazilian kieron  Richardson  for 50mil I think Watford's are not letting any more go.

Deeney and Gray are a right pair though ! Not exactly role models but that's not their concerns I suppose .

Tammy Abrahams sounds like a good shout wouldn't mind us signing him.

Ryan Woods signing from Brentford for £3m with add ons he is saying also now. If this one comes off then fair to say he is ITK.

He’s a good player.

I think this is BS

Shame as he's a cracking player

If we are genuinely interested I have to say Ryan's heads turned .  A move away as he may want to leaf.  Ryan could go on strike and not turn out for the Brentford club

Really if Villa want him I can't see the woods for the bees

Woods.... I bloody wish. Brilliant little player. Swap him for Hogan!

Ulloa would be a good signing for Bruce ball and give us a target man so I would be OK with it.

Abraham, yes please!


Woods might get Hogan going.

Big loan singing incoming says @thatcherlover on Twitter. Been accurate so far this summer.

Some chap called Dan Bardell on Twitter (whoever he is) is also saying we are working on a deal for a striker.

I think he operates the fan site The Villa View that interviewed Luke Organ recently.

"Proven at this level"

Stab in the dark here, I'd say it's Hugill or Ulloa

Proven you say!?? So it can only be !!

If it's Prem :
Ings
Ulloa
Abrahams
Hugill
Conor Wickham
Naki wells
Sam baldock
Glenn Murray
Bonatini
Gary Madine
Kamara
Dwight Gayle

Is it's currently Champ
Abel Hernandez
Crouchie
Vydra
Frazier Campbell
David Nugent
Cameron Jerome
Leon Clarke
Gary Hooper
Sam Winnal
Forestieri
Hal Robson Kanu
Martyn Waghorn if he hasnt left to derby
Or big Daryl Murphy / Chris Martin

Him? I'm almost sure I've got an old soul stomper with her on vocals. Great voice.
