Will Archer feature tomorrow?

[winker]

I'm going anyway, but it would be nice to have a look at our new striker. Is it too late to have his registration through?

 

[h_m_boro]

Usually paperwork goes through then unveiling, so I'd be surprised if he isn't eligible to play.
Has to have been completed by dinnertime Friday so....

 

[newyddion]

I think he’ll make the bench at least

 

[pierrequiroule]

Hardly played this season, so they may want to assess his fitness rather than risk an injury.

 

[Muttley]

Bench at the outside I would think. Regardless of fitness he won't be familiar with his team mates and our system. If we had drawn a lower league opponent it might be different I suppose?

 

[Marvanelli]

I think he'll be in the squad.

Very much doubt he starts, but I think he'll come on.

 

[S7DiscoDown]

Think he's had 9mins first team football this season. That's on the back of a WC break.

So doubt they will rush him in. I'm sure he will still be 'fit'. Just probably lacking match fitness. He's banged in 4 in 4 for the England U21s. Again a while ago.

Clearly most woukd love to see him tomorrow. Yet in reality a weeks training would probably be more likely to asses his fitness etc.

 

[Morton94]

He'll be in the squad, be good to get him some minutes in the tank!

 

[BobUpnDown]

Introduced & in the stands.. maybe only the latter, keep expectations down..

Forss & Hoppe with Chuba on bench I'd think..

 

[NorthumberlandBoro]

He'll be another string to our bow.

 

[newyddion]

He'll be another string to our bow.

top flight straight shooter.. or have I missed the point?

 

[ILOVEJUNINHO!]

Are any of the loanees allowed to play? I remember the days when you had to have special permission from the parent club for them to play in cup games.

That's to stop them being cup tied. He can't be cup tied as villa can't recall him outside of a transfer window.

Stop making sensible comments you'll have the hounds baying for blood

 

[fmttmadmin]

He has been here for a couple of days so might well be involved in some way - as a way to bed him in. At the very least he might be introduced to the crowd.

 

[Jedi boro]

Great option to have

 

[hewielewie]

This has to be hummed if he plays tomorrow
