Butterfingers Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I hope he gets a good run at some point, in order to make a real decision on him. Having missed pre-season, he has a lot of catching up to do. He'll definitely have to start where he left off, ie cameo roles for 20 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Would be brilliant if he stays and finally gets a run of consistent games, he'd be a serious asset to our side. His ability to run with the ball and go past players is frightening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Quote Roberto Di Matteo admits the jury is still out on Adama Traore as he battles to force his way into the Aston Villa side. The 20-year-old winger trained with the first-team this week after shaking off an injury sustained earlier in the summer but the chances of him featuring against Sheffield Wednesday on Sunday are slim. His pace and power could aid Villa’s promotion assault but Di Matteo stopped short of talking him up, or down for that matter. “I haven’t had much time to make a real assessment of the boy,” the Italian said. “He came back injured from his holidays so he only just joined the group this week.” Adama isn’t expected to travel and neither will striker Libor Kozak - the only confirmed absentee http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/aston-villa-whats-happening-winger-11712514 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) One wild theory on why we have not seen Adama for a while could be that he was in fact killed by French police in mid July?
