Realistic signings in January

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

Hasn't even been a regular starter for Huddersfield this season.

engineering a move??

 

[James Bond's body double]

You are correct, he is - There is an option to buy for £11m but I'm not sure how set in stone that is.

11m really, wow the world has gone mad.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Assombalonga doesn't seem to feature much for Forest now.

He must be OFF - maybe to us.

 

[bhanutz]

Jordan Rhodes loan

Sheffield Wednesday reckon he is nailed on for a loan move there...I believe Boro would rather sell though and can see Villa or Norwich snapping him up...Everyone else would struggle to pay the fee and wages Boro and he would want.

 

[Taybha]

I can only imagine the right to buy after the loan contract was completed in Roman numerals

 

[KingstonSeagull]

Pogba

Yeah - Together with the £2.5-3m loan fee it looked a great deal for Derby at the time. Less so when Pearson got the boot and Schteve came back.

Forestieri...I think this signing would almost guarantee a top 2 place!

 

[Hugo Rune]

Forestieri...I think this signing would almost guarantee a top 2 place!

Problem is, he is a ****. Would he be a good fit in our dressing room? I doubt it.

 

[junior]

Robbie Keane until end of season please.

 

[bhanutz]

Duffy will soon sort that out!

 

[shaolinpunk]

SkyBet now has Frank Lampard at 2/1 to join us...

[Bognor Bystander]

Ulloa on loan from Leicester (as he's 4th choice there) ?

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Ross McCormack is not in Bruce's plans at Villa apparently, and they've got Rhodes lined up for January. I'd be delighted if we could get McCormack, savage goal machine at this level.

I doubt they would sell to a promotion rival...Would rather keep him so no one else would benefit..They can afford to after all.

I would have thought a loan would be more sensible, I can't see McCormack sitting on the bench when they have Kodjia, Ayew, Agbonlahor, Gestede and potentially Rhodes. It depends whether Bruce is smart about it, realistically you'd like to think Villa are aiming for the play offs, seeing as they don't play us until the last game we could take points from all of their play off rivals between now and then.

I think Villa are going for top 2....They will spend big in January! I don't think they would offload McCormack to a rival!

Shall I just repeat my point again, seeing as that's what you've done

I personally think with the Calderwood incident and the way they handled it, along with our response any deals between our two clubs are going to be none existent. Although I would not put it past them to make several derisory offers for a few of our key players just to unsettle us.

You think Bruce is realistically aiming for play-offs? ok then!
