Hopefully the greek is a backup option for Enrich, and Cyriac backup for Callum Robinson.

Think we might have to offer him more than chips 064.gif

whilst not bad news, why would he leave La Liga for the championship especially when he is starting games

It sounds hopeful - both first choices sound right for the task of getting promotion.

He'll probably play rubbish now, but Enrich one of best strikers in Spain in terms of movement, receiving (esp on chest), outlet, etc

Cyriac looks like quite a penalty taker. Some of his penalties remind me of Berba.

They all seem to go in the same spot, with the goalkeeper diving in the wrong direction.  Any misses won't have made the show reel!

The player he reminds me of is Andy Johnson.  Intended as a compliment.

[westcliff white]

He is also wantung to move as he wants first team football. QUick Strong and direct, can play wide as well

The fact that Fulham is looking into a striker who does not play regularly for a minor club in Belgium (after having failed at both the top clubs in Belgium) and who is injury-prone is probably the most lunatic idea I'll read all day but somehow it keeps resurfacing.

Even more so when they are willing to pay silly money.

Dear God, no!

MAKE IT STOP.

[westcliff white]

he scored 1 in around 11 at Anderlecht and one in around 3.25 for Standard. I wouldnt mind him as back up, but said this last summer he wouldnt be my first choice.

The injury part is a concern if a middle eastern club wont sign him becaus eof his injury past why would we

[westcliff white]

Ross to Forest being mooted, they are favourites for him now

He's seemingly played in almost all games so far this season and the same last season, not sure how that makes him injury prone?  Different players perform better in different teams too, and whilst you've definitely seen more of him and his team than I have, I'd wager we're a lot more creative than they are.

So from not being able to get out of his gates at home, he has now been shown the door by Villa.

[Ordar]

How are Villa affording all these signings? Didnt they spend loads in the summer aswell??

They appear to have an ambitious Chairman.

At least ours will not bankrupt us. If Villa don´t go up they will have a huge embargo & be saddled with a load of high paid players. Rather our position than theirs.

I would be very happy with Enrich and Cyriac signed. Splash the cash for a very good first choice striker in Enrich (people on twitter are talking about 10 mil euros) and get a decent rotation forward in Cyriac for a little more than 1 mil euros.

He played a great number of games this year, it is true. But he has had a bad knee injury and relapsed quite a number of times. So you basically buy a player with a dodgy knee.

He is not a prolific goal scorer. Last season he scored a large number of goals because Oostende were an outsider who took everyone by surprise. Think Leicester City without the title.

And to top it all: in my opinion he plays on the position of Kebano the last couple of months. They have two strikers who play up front. Why have another but slower Kebano if you do not make good use of the current one?

[MaidenheadMick]

Looks like Scott Hogan is off to Villa. 10m fee agreed. Can't see them going for Rhodes as well with Kodjia returning soon from the AFCON. Could we see Rhodes heading to London?

[grandad]

Aston Villa have agreed a fee in the region of £15m for Brentford striker Scott Hogan, according to Sky sources.

Will they still have  McCormack as well or will he go to Forest.
