is it likely we'll pick up anyone from the PL seeing as loans now have to be linked to a buy at the end of the loan period?

Stoke City are sniffing around Ryan Woods apparently. Loan to buy. Get in there Bruce.

As much as I like Woods, I have an inkling that he'd end-up looking like a very average player not playing under Smith.  He's strength is in how simple he keeps things (and the tempo and direction he does so) when playing for Brentford.  You just know that if Brentford get £6.5m, they'll pluck some other half-decent footballer from League 2 and turn him into exactly the same player as woods is now!

That doesn't sound right to me, where have you read that?

We are short on right backs and goalkeepers.

Sounds a bit like Westwood who most of the Villa fan base decided was shit.

Harsh. He was world class at playing the ball backwards into defence. And pointing, don't forget the pointing.

Bolasie, El-Ghazi and Abraham in on loan and Terry on a decreased wage 1 year contract would be a perfect ending to the window.
