KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 That Saint-Maxmin chap looks like a Playstation footballer: going past people for fun and looks like an absolute beasty. Made for YouTube. Unfortunately, the last player I said that about was Adama. It's fun to watch players spinning around but it's not particularly impressive if a) they run the ball into touch or b) fluff their lines on the cross/finish.

useless Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) Jonathan Bamba makes a lot of sense to me, our French scout earlier in the summer said there were players in both the French development national teams, and Ligue 1 that might be of interest to us, Bamba would match both those criteria, he can also genuinely play on either wing or upfront, plays for Lille, so if we were really watching Leao then we would have seen Bamba plenty of times. Not sure if he'd be a big name signing in the sense that Dan Bardell suggests though. Other young French strikers that I can think of that might not be too unrealistic are Mateta, and Edouard from Celtic. Not that it's guaranteed that we're going to be signing a French striker, just making link between what our French scout said earlier in the summer.

Chindie Posted August 1, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 1, 2019 We won't be done. We need another striker, or at least another forward with goals in him. We can't go into the season with Wesley, Kodjia and Hogan as senior strikers. Wesley's an unknown quantity, Kodjia blew hot and cold in the Championship and Hogan's shite. Obviously the way we play we'll get goals across the team but you need strikers chipping in and when Wesley misses a match we're staring at an unreliable wildcard, a hopeless case, and 2 kids, neither of which has set the world on fire yet (who need loans). We need another striker. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need another striker. Definately. Spot on. I also can't see us sending Green on loan with just Jota covering the right flank. Considering the last signings we'll be looking at are a striker and winger, I wonder how long it takes the media to link us to a Brentford double swoop.

tyklip Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 1 hour ago, VillanousOne said: he talked back to the ref a lot, i'll give you that. Tracking back was 50/50 on whether he did or not, not dissing him as a player but he wasn't always the work horse your claret and blue tinted glasses claim, especially towards the end of the season. Nor would i expect him to track back either, he's a lone striker. He often tracked back when he lost the ball, i'll give you that also. He was the hardest working striker that Villa has had in my decade or so of following Villa. Name someone who came close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
