If this Archer lad fits in well with Akpom, he's definatiely another bow for us to draw on and could have our opponents in a quiver
should have played them both and dropped Sporar
He knows what your saying. He’s just trying to deflect having been caught outI'm not saying Connolly is going to have a glittering career.
I'm saying Balogun was never dropped for him, and that he played in the last 8 games.
Balogun was definitely the better player, but there's no need to make things up.
Good job they have no say in any decisions made by their club then.Villa fans worried he won’t get game time with us. Prefer him to go back to Preston.
Probably sounds a bit negative but based upon the last couple of January windows we actually seemed to go backwards, just don't want anything to disrupt what we have now! The last successful January signing was probably Gaston RamirezKind of agree with you. I've come to the conclusion that signings, managers or players, are to some extent a lottery because so many stars need to come into alignment for them to be successful beyond the talent and ability of the individual.
The way the TEAM is operating at the moment whoever comes in has to earn the right to play, they can't simply walk in as a starter. The situation needs careful management and I'm hopeful that MC can handle it.
The previous 2 seasons we've been in good shape entering the New Year but our January recruitment just seems to have destroyed our momentum with stuff that was working put aside in an effort to accommodate new players who simply haven't worked out.
Just you. Always good to whinge about something though isn’t it palAnyone else think this is bonkers?
We have a goal scoring 20 year old that has been sent on loan to bristol rovers.... playing 14 games and scoring 8 so far...
We are being linked with a 21yo lad who has only done 6 games from the bench and hasnt scored.
We should be developing our own lads not loaning others to develop
Coburn is being developed, this lad was sent to the Championship to develop at Coburn's age. He's a year ahead, experience wise.Anyone else think this is bonkers?

Im not whinging, I just dont get why we are loaning out a proven goalscoring forward and loaning in a non scoring forward (this season) thats a year olderJust you. Always good to whinge about something though isn’t it pal
You should be looking at his Championship record with Preston not his PL one with Villa.Anyone else think this is bonkers?

I believe where Connolly is concerned the correct terminology is 'vajazzling career'.I await Connolly's glittering career
From the looks of it, Crooks or Forss. I think Crooks is an excellent option in a physical game on a dire pitch like Birmingham away, but isn't mobile enough to play up top against quicker centre backs.So who from this team
do you think will make way for him?
And we currently are.We should be developing our own lads
Not a dig at crooks, but its no surprise to me that Crooks looks far more effective in the 2nd half of games when the freshness and zip has gone out of the oppositions legs.From the looks of it, Crooks or Forss. I think Crooks is an excellent option in a physical game on a dire pitch like Birmingham away, but isn't mobile enough to play up top against quicker centre backs.
I think we should leave the attack after adding him. Muniz should be sent back - Hoppe maybe on loan.
Balogun was great with when facing goal. When he had the ball played in to his feet with his back to goal we might as well just just give it back to the opposition.One of my main criticisms of Balogun was the wide left starting position he used to take up. Not sure if that was his preference or coaching but, in a team that had a lot of possession, he often had much to do from out wide.
Bloody hell, Sporar. I'd already forgotten about him...should have played them both and dropped Sporar
That's a quality strike force especially if forss keeps up he recent from. I could see forss and archer with chuba behind. I don't want too many more signings if we could get a midfielder to replace mowatt or a wide right player to keep Jones on his toes that would be great. Only one or two more in for me and the mother of all collapses from Sheffield uniturdExcellent to see. I'm glad we tried for a permanent deal at least.
I reckon that's Muniz gone now, I also think Mathew Hoppe could go out on loan
I'd be happy with Akpom, Archer, Forss and Watmore with potentially Hoppe as 5th choice.
