Abrahams and  a move for Crystal Palace left- back Pape Souare and Puncheon would be great.


Talksport are suggesting that Abrahams to Villa is close to happening.

Oh that's brilliant news
Shame on RHm and Davis but Abrahams is capable but a bit carlton Cole as he does miss some chances when easy to miss and is a ' confidence' player . Messed up for england under 21 a few times  when he's having a game where he can't score looks awful but on whole at championship level he good and learning but can develop .

Welcome Tammy !

Not sure we need Puncheon. That just seems overkill to me.

Oh sure I guess if we were shifting out Albert and Green but didn't realize Jason  he be a loan not a free sorry

Using 3 of the 5 match-day loan-spots for wingers would be absolute lunacy.

Abraham got 23 goals in 41 games in the Championship for Bristol City the season before last. His partner is a 'Youtuber' called Leah Monroe. A quick search suggests she specialises in make-up and skincare tips.

Maybe she will help all the players achieve a 'healthy glow' and give us a psychological advantage.

She seems to have all the tools required to play at left-back for us in that case.

Suggestions that the French kid won’t be coming. The prospect of playing in goal, in midfield, RB (obviously) and up front didn’t appeal to him.

Like to be proved wrong if he does come but he seems to be a bit 'Kodja like' for me. I think Hogan when fit would be better suited to playing up front if all these wingers we've got throw the ball into the box.

Bruce will probably play him as a holding midfielder anyway.

If we're loaning a (good) player to our championship rivals, having replaced him with two loan players one of whom is an unknown quantity and one on his way back from long term injury, it isn't strange, it's just stupid.

Seems he’s fallen out of favour. Possibly after not being offered a new contract after saving Bruce’s job last season.
