Vive_La_Villa Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 1 minute ago, MaVilla said: Barbet is on the bench for Brentford, would he actually improve us?, and by improve us I mean be the man to make CB or LB his own and really be a long term player in that position??? I have no idea. But I do know if Chester or Axel get injured we have no other natural centre half to fill in. (Collins aside). it could be difficult to find players that could improve the first team in January. Our final loan place will go on a goalie. After that hopefully the club try to sign players to improve us but if the right players aren’t available they need to at least strengthen the squad.

Heaton's only just coming back from injury and that concerns me. Forster is still a very good keeper He had one of the worst Premier League seasons ever last season, not just by him but by any player. He was letting errors in everywhere Maybe a change could do him good but wouldnt fill me with confidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Like the title change. If we keep nyland as no 1 until the summer we will not go up. It's as simple as that. Get Heaton in now. Ready for 1st jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted December 8, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted December 8, 2018 I’d be really happy with Tom Heaton, Joe Bryan, and Matt Targett... not sure it’ll happen but it would be great (and not impossible). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 tom heaton is so painfully obvious, i think he will get the choice between us and leeds so we could do with closing the gap before the window opens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 (edited) We are so exposed to crosses and anyone who has any strength defensively, i respect Chester, he seems to read things well, but he is just too short imo for a CB, he's tiny, we need a commanding CB in Jan imo. (couple with the fact Tuanzebe is over 6ft but not as good in the air as his frame/height/strength would suggest - we are at real risk for anything crossed in) In terms of the keeper, how possible is it to be working on a GK now and literally have them ready to join on the 1st Jan?, we really need it. On top of that, a RB/LB would be nice. If any money left, a holding / ball playing DM please Edited December 8, 2018 by MaVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In defence we have no options, one or two injuries and we are screwed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
