supernova26 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) We aren't signing players because our financial directors don't want to spend money and Garde thinks we're the new Barca since he actually won a match so he's not arrsed either. The nobody wants to sign for us argument doesn't wash with me. We haven't been looking, or trying hard enough. Clubs completely **** up. The white flag was blown way too early , unforgivable and their should be a protest. A proper protest.

cbr600rr Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 i think the new chairman has not got the spunk to tell RL this team is down unless he pays the going rate for players that gets him his beloved tv £££ 99% of modern players will sign & play for any club if you pay them & more,reading between the lines the board feel its too late & dont want more dead wood on the wage bill like gabby & zig bog to get villa rocking & with a shot of staying up i can only see/hope teki might return but they are playing in a cup final so why would klop send him on loan when teki is plan b to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a m ole Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 how many signings have other clubs made so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Sorry don't buy none wants to join Villa. Championship teams sign players all the time and some real decent ones. We're still not down yet and even if we were we would be favourites to come back up. So if your a foreigner and are 22 years old and want a chance in England. Even to showcase yourself for 6 months.. you can be sent out on loan to Middlesbrough or whoever comes up next season the way Qpr did with Remy. It's all down to Randy and his pets imo. rocket polishers the lot of them Edited January 28, 2016 by KSV 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The four teams above us have all made at least one signing (some teams more than one) and Swansea are about to spend £8m on a striker apparently.

As has been said before there are players who could make a difference who would sign for us permanently or on loan if we really wanted to bring anyone in. They may be playing abroad and want an opportunity to play if only for a few months in the PL, they may be playing in the leagues below our current one and want the chance to play in the PL and for a team like us whatever the league we may end up in next season or they may want to play first team football again in some cases to enhance their prospects of playing in the Euros. Sunderland's hopes of staying up are little better than our own but unlike us they do not seem quite as ready to throw in the towel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a football club not a financial institution. Giving up in sport is not justifiable in anyway.

I think Newcastle and Sunderland are doing a scattergun approach to signings and they can afford to gamble more as they're in touch we on the other hand have to be more astute with our signings as we are basically down and need a miracle! I still think we'll get a few in. I just hope they're of high enough quality to have a good go at staying up!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
