    I think it's terrific that all the posters who are desperate for football threads find the time to post in here and not the argument threads.

    Hope I'm wrong, but I think this will be a pretty quiet thread, honestly can't see us doing much business.

    Yeah, wouldn't surprise me tbh. Can't see us getting any money for Alf and Macheda though.
    Not too worried about losing anyone good, we haven't got anyone good.

    Maybe a mod should change the title to "The threadbare transfer deadline day thread"

    Hopefully this will pick up tomorrow.

    I really hope we sign a striker, but I'm not sure Poundland have any left in stock.

    I think contract termination by mutual agreement day thread would be more accurate.

    I would've liked him back here if we could've gotten a permanent deal. But I imagine a lot of our fans would get on his back if the signing didn't work out, so it's better for him he went elsewhere. He's a player who should be playing in the middle, not out wide. Hopefully Tom develops well this year for Wales' sake.

    Keeping on the Welsh tip. Isgrove can also play no.10. He should be available.

    I couldn't give a ferk about all this hysteria any more. It's almost
    more than flesh and blood can stand going to watch City ( though I still do )
    without all this death by a 1000 cuts in the playing squad and we are supposed
    to be grateful for some has been or hopeless player who will come to CCS and wave a
    magic wand. I just don't care.

    I'm sensing a theme today with your posts BlueWales.

    Please don't be afraid to ask for help if you are feeling down. There are many organisations and people that do care if you need someone to talk to.

    All the best.

    Thing is, we still have a lot of talent in our squad and our strength in depth is decent for Championship level. I just feel or squad is imbalanced. Not as good as the sum of our parts.

    I'm not sure you can say we have strength in depth anymore.
    We are unbelievably short upfront and the goalkeeper position.
    We have a lot of midfielders but wether or not they are strong in terms of quality that's debatable.

    Wrong on both counts regarding quality and strength in depth, but right regarding imbalance.

    Agree that we definitely must bring in a good keeper. This would take priority over an outfield player for me.

    On the strikers thing, we can still consider Immers and Pilkington as part of available forwards, who have done very well in the past. Noone is still on our books, though I don't rate him, he is capable of winning matches, albeit once in a blue moon. I haven't written off Fred yet, seen some encouraging signs after a bad start. Lafferty looks like he's on his way. Hopefully he's much better than we expect.

    Do Villa have the most expensive forward line in Championship history? You can add Jordan Ayew circa 8 million, Ross McCormack circa 12 million and Gestede circa 6 million, Kozak circa 6.5 million to their latest deal.

    If there is a football God then Huddersfield will go up and Villa will miss out. Sorry James Chester but I can't see a team pay near 30million on three strikers for a Championship season and cheer them on.
