I mean, the appearances, assists and goals aren't... the information it gives is very good The values are clearly arbitrary BS, but who really cares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's a fair point, which even the Carvalhistas have to take note of. We can't match Villa, not if it gets into a bidding war, but Brucie can't sign everybody. Or can he?

ozzieowl Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Sun reporting villa offering 28k. Bit unprofessional of someone to report that in the press. sure DC/CC would never release that info. Reckon CH is exactly what we need. Someone who can take free kicks etc. Bit of creativity. Goals from midfield. Hoping we pull this off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggoisgod Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Its weird because both Abdi and McGugan have more pedigree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prowl Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I'm not convinced we need him, he's relatively inexperienced at this level and £28k is a lot of money to pay someone who might just be in a purple patch. No problem with the transfer fee, I just think we could do better for the wages On the other hand if he goes to Villa he has no idea if he will get a game. They are after so many quality midfielders he might just sign and find himself up against some top Championship players who are well proven at this level. It doesn't look like Villa are going to sign one or two they could sign 3 or 4 or more. I'm not too fussed either way, if we carry on playing 2 wingers and Hutch in the holding role. That only leaves I spot and Bannan, Abdi and Jones to fill it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a gamble, yes, but he shown in half a season that he has what it takes at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I think it's about getting players at the right time. Watford seemingly got Abdi then and we haven't seen the same. we got FF just as he has started to peak and hopefully Winnall too. Someone like Hourihane has been playing without too much expectation and that could effect him if he moves to a bigger club. But he has shown he can do well in his league. When you look at the prices quoted for the likes of Tom Cairney it would be good to get Hourihane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Sl-OWL-ly Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Trust in DC, after all, it's his money and I feel confident he won't wan't to waste it... I can't help feeling there's going to be a bit of a twist in our transfers this break.. Remember the wink he gave one of ours ?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppers Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 If he doesn't sign after 67 pages we will look daft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
