I think we need 2, a right back to compete with Montoya and an attacking player, not neccesarily a striker. Our attacking options at present are Murray, Andone, Locadia, Trossard, Gross, Ali J and March, that is 7 players for 4 positions several of whom can play in more than one position, we...

Harry Maguire started for Leicester vs Cambridge tonight, doesn't sound like any move to Man Utd is close or i doubt they would risk him.

Good move for him, hope he can stay fit and be a regular for them this season.

Another good loan to a decent standard of club, hope he does well.

No i'm really not, you dont know me, so a bit of an assumption to make on the strength of a few posts on here, but do carry on. Maybe you think so because i told you to get real the other day on the Knockaert to Fulham thread after you said a bit of you had lost all respect for the club because...

Yes we are all just gobshites on a messageboard, that really is the case and wasn't specifically aimed at you, sorry if you've taken it that way, but some are getting their knickers in a twist way too much because there is only a couple of weeks left of the window. Its the same every season...

Sorry, my mistake, ididn't realise you took the youngsters training every day ffs, there are plenty of kids who start in one position but somebody spots their potential in another and they make it, Wan Bissaka has just moved to Man U as a right back, after starting life at Palace as a right winger.

4 weeks of possibly getting it wrong, whatever was agreed prior to last season may have changed when Potter came in and brought his own head of recruitment to work alongside Ashworth, Winstanley et al. Whoever they identify will be under the guidance of what Potter thinks is needed to do the job.

Yes of course he does, it doesn't matter one iota what the fans know, none of us stand to lose our job if it all goes wrong. How do you know, hypothetically speaking that Ashworth or anyone else wasn't saying "we need a right back but, maybe Max Sanders could play there, he's done it in...

Was always going to be slow Potter would want to look at what he's got before deciding what he needs, that period should be over now though imo, so hopefully moves are being made for at least a right back and an attacking player.

Fair play to Gaetan, could have had another week or so off, obviously would rather get back to training and try and impress his new boss.

I was a7 before, still a 7 because im excited to see how much difference Potter & Co make, i always believed we were better than we showed towards the end of last season, not neccesarily Hughtons fault but i believe a number of players weren't giving there all for him for a fair while, when...

This Poor blokes on a hiding to nothing if he has a slow start to the season, really hope he comes good at Watford.

But if Bong is playing thats Potters fault too, or Ali J's for not helping him out from the other side of the pitch.

Geoff Pitcher?

And the Potterists will follow the Hughtonists example and blame the recruitment team, at least we will all finally have something to agree on :lol:

I didn't either though had it been a bottom 8 i would have, about 13th or 14th i'd imagine. Mind you i think i had Fulham around 10th and Wolves struggling so on that basis Villa are doomed.

I think he looks good even a bit Brunoesque in the way he takes on his opponent, however that was at Championship level, a lot of Premier League wingers and wide midfielders are faster and stronger and he may not get away with that half the time, £20 million is ridiculous imho.

Surprised nobody has metioned Gary Stevens, ex Albion and definitely scored in a final, Gordon Smith has been mentioned but not for the goal that mattered.

Dont know to be honest, maybe it is his preference to go permanently but has taken advice from others to see how it goes at Fulham first, im only guessing maybe its nothing to do with his mental state, i'm just trying to find something more plausable than were shoving him out the door for next...
