Nick Powell from Man U

Think you're right, but he played up front at Crewe - He looks very classy on the ball though, and can finish

 

[portslade seagull]

Holroyd to comeback

This may sound silly but think about it Darren Bent has played 18 times for Villa this season and is not picked but is out of contract at the end of the season. Get him on loan which puts him in the shop window and he plays games. We could even take him on a loan to buy for £10m if we get promoted if we dont nothing lost if we do offer him £5k a week which he wouldnt accept but we will have used him for the last couple of months.

If we are taking this promotion malarkey seriously, we need to replace our multi million striker with another. So look at Championship teams who have probably given up on the playoffs this time around and would appreciate a loan fee and the excuse to blood other squad players. Which leads me to Jordan Rhodes or Charlie Austin.

I would have thought loan to buy deals terms have to be agreed with the club and the player, otherwise surely someone would have pulled that trick before?

It's a nice idea but I'm guessing the lad is on the best part of £100k a week therefore miles out of our price range.

and u think dobbie is in same league? And he was our number one striker....dream on..and dont forget to turn the right way

 

[Tony the Pony]

What about Robbie Keane, now that the MLS season has finished?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

But you cannot compare Dobbie to Rhodes or Austin

 

[oleoleolevicente]

I'm gonna give a small list: Adam Morgan,John Guidetti,Carlton Cole,Simeon Jackson,Nick Powell and Rory Donnelly. I'd say Morgan+Donnelly would be the easiest to get

[Willy Dangle]

Has Ulloa got a brother?

 

[jharris]

Simon Church on loan

 

[Super Steve Earle]

have you smoked crack today?

So they're less realistic than Bobby Z?

 

[BensGrandad]

I would think that as we post on here Gus is in communication with Zigor Arkarandes or whatever his name is in Spain about a striker who we will have never heard of as per the majority of the Spanish players we have already.

Jermaine Easter? You lent us Dobbie, we could return the favour!
