At least this Samatta fella has a half decent YouTube compilation. In truth, I’m a bit skeptical as to whether he’s the answer but will definitely get behind him. I just hope he’s more Mane than Salifou! The positive side is that we are after 2 strikers, by the looks of him, at minimum he seems a big nuisance who can also slip in and poach. Alot of good headers as well. Think he will be the "little" striker in the Big Man/ Little man combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure on the rules, but I'm assuming a permit has to be agreed before a player signs? Well the news is a politician is aiding in obtaining a permit, don't know whether it's true but seems like there are complications for a politician to be involved.

GodsBarkeep Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I feel somewhat put at ease to hear that Scouting guru Josh Williams has said that 'For just £8.5m, Samatta has the quality to save Villa's season.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's making concerted runs to win and hit them with force To be honest I’d forgotten goals could be scored with the head, so I’ll. take him 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 2 hours ago, Chindie said: This is probably about the best kind of signing we can expect at the moment. It's a punt, but it's one we have to make, and, sadly, one we make with an eye on Championship football next season. He seems to have a bit about him, hopefully he can physically take to the league. If he can, then the ability will follow hopefully. Needs to have another signed with him though. It's no good trying to fudge our way through the rest of the season with 1 striker. Get a loan in alongside him. To me he looks at least comparable to Wesley - bit it just makes the Wesley fee even more ridiculous - I suppose this guy is older at 27.
