munoz Posted December 30, 2020 Report Posted December 30, 2020 So Tony in his half time interview hinted at a couple coming in. What positions are most needed for new recruitment? For me probably that elusive 15 goals a season striker. If Mason goes back to Coventry, then that position will need looking at. We're currently looking in the best position, squad wise we have done for a while. A couple of additions that are better than what we currently have will see us in a great place. Quote
Ethan Posted December 30, 2020 Report Posted December 30, 2020 We have the best squad in ages but we still lack goals. A 15+ striker would be great. I think we could ship a few out. Sheron for one Quote

Sheron for one He might well want to leave since he had fallen right out of the team, and i wouldn't think he would want to sit on the bench for an other 5 months or so. Unless he want a league cup winner medal that is Quote
uhura Posted December 30, 2020 Report Posted December 30, 2020 Sign a couple of guys from Livingston. Weaken them before the semi final. Quote

munoz Posted December 30, 2020 Author Report Posted December 30, 2020 2 big signings short of Tony's vision of glory- step forward Archibald & Victor. Quote

Let's not have inspired signings like that again🙄 Given the quality of JDH may be an idea to see if villa have anyone for loan from under 23 team that they may look to offload in summer Quote

oaksoft Posted December 31, 2020 Report Posted December 31, 2020 Now that we are mid-table, playing very well and creating lots of chances and in a Cup semi-final without the OF being involved, maybe it'll be easier to persuade a half decent striker or two to come to us for the season to grab a Cup medal and a bunch of goals.

JJ McG Posted December 31, 2020 Report Posted December 31, 2020 Doyle Hayes on a new contract is the most important signing of January we could make, a serious player, glides through games and makes it look easy. Quote

Enjoy him while you can, The thing I don't understand about his situation is that he was outstanding for Cheltenham last season , so much so that they were desperate to get him back on a permanent deal. They then said they couldn't afford him whenever a Scottish Premier team showed interest. Is this a sign that the new wage cap in the lower divisions down there is going to help the standard of player that clubs up here can attract. Quote

You can bet almost every one of those clubs will be at their limit already - some temporarily beyond, so when a good player comes available they don't have the finance to be able to react. That is to our benefit after decades of losing players to that level of English football. If we secure Jake for a longer term, then IMO that would be our most important signing for as long as I can remember. He s quite literally the difference between top 6 and a relegation battle. He's been that important for us. Been thinking about why we've turned things around so dramatically and it was this signing. Edited December 31, 2020 by oaksoft Quote
