We are apparently in discussion to sign a striker,Julio Tavares, from Ligue 1 Dijon.He is their all time leading scorer. Bye bye Sir Benny? Villa had agreed a £2.9m fee for him but failed to complete the deal before the window shut. 29 years old, the new Grant Holt?

Maybe Nelson will go the other way?
 
So with our defense leaking goals at an alarming rate we go in for another striker.
Rhodes, Pukki, Srbeney, Oliveria (what’s happened to him?) and now a French lad. If Villa didn’t sign him in time how come we can negotiate a transfer?

Hate to pour cold water on this one, but it's most of the way through the article that the EDP slips in the source:

"Tavares is under contract until 2021 but HITC claim Villa, City, Wigan and Blackburn are all weighing up a move for the £2.5m rated 6ft 1in powerhouse."

Grain of salt time.

He's got to be on the way out, surely? I can't see how we can afford an additional striker unless we're offloading one.

I think so, too, DH. Nelson is definitely not in Farke's plans. And, as CitySlicker2010 suggested, we need shoring up at the back.
 
Not now. Would just be in the way of Thompson and Godfrey, so we would have to send THEM out on loan. Makes no sense at all. And having written this realise that at no point did you suggest we get him back Carrow, so appologies.

Getting the ball to our front 3 is the problem........that and our useless defence..........and crap keeper...........and a head coach who hasn't a Scooby........Ok everything except perhaps our front 3 is basically f#cked.

Bah!
