Too late now to sign the striker we need for the Huddersfield match and hopefully in ten days time either Kamara or Mitro will be ready for an appearance against Blackburn.
No point therefore in wasting time and money in one of our deadline bargain basement signings.
Your assuming that they both stay fit. Jota being linked by the Mail seems strange. Don’t know if that is the forward LVBPT was referring to
Would likely be a loan (Villa now have a big squad).
Not sure how much he would add.
If played like Knocky as a right inverted winger the opposition would likely close down his left foot the same.
Knockaert has good statistics for about 65 mins and then starts to dip, so we need a right winger coming off the bench. Kamara can do that job, but he needs to focus 100% on being our backup centre forward and resting Mitrovic as early in each match as possible. Kebano can do that job but is carrying injuries, Bobby Reid can also do that job but is needed in midfield with injuries there too.
Jota as backup RW will directly strengthen the availability of backups for RW and indirectly strengthen the availability of backups for CF, LW and AM, which may indirectly indirectly improve backups for LB, DM and CM too. A better right-winger than Torres like Jota would strengthen the squad considerably. Adding Jota means we would have two players in each position and with 21 players worth more than Harrison Reed no other club has such depth.
