On the plus side, me and Elfsborg had a cracking night :-)RodneyCharltonTrotta said:AFKABartram said:Just skipped thousands of posts from May 10th. I’m taking an educated guess I’ve not missed much!
The cancelled transfers because of the dwarf led orgy was a hoot but has probably set pre season back a few weeks.
Other than that nada.21 -
We’ve got to be favourites there surely. It doesn’t say but I’m assuming that’s a loan move?Bubble said:

Come on Barry, you know you want to be the next Nile John.6

Louie Barry would be an interesting one! Didn't do a lot at Ipswich but seems to be very highly rated at Villa.0

It does make sense given that he knows Garner and has been successful in the system that BG used last time round. Plus as a youngster and a loanee he's unlikely to be a huge financial burden.
That said he's had one decent season and is still very young so potentially a gamble of he did sign but doesn't settle.0 -
Take your pick from current Swindon and former Palace & Charlton players of course. That's about it. Oh, not forgetting Tucker and anyone answering to the name Ben.AFKABartram said:Just skipped thousands of posts from May 10th. I’m taking an educated guess I’ve not missed much!2 - Sponsored links:

Has he signed then?Cafc43v3r said:1 -
I'd be happy with that. Young loanee that the manager knows already, and not his first move away either.
We need to get the age profile of the loans right too, as last summer by not having any under 21s, we had issues with the squad cap1 -
You'd like to hope so, but MK are 3rd favourites for promotion whilst we are 11th....The Red Robin said:

Perhaps that’d change if we made some decent signings.The Prince-e-Paul said:

Exactly that, bookies are a waste of space at this time, how can someone decide favourites for promotion/relegation before the season has even started, no one knows the squad strengths and weaknesses now,,.🙄1 -

Louis Barry is 19 next week and like many I was surprised to see the lad who spent 10 years in West Brom's academy and then spent a short time in Barcelona's famous La Masia academy ending up on loan from Villa at League 2 Swindon after he struggled with Joe Pigott to get game time at Ipswich when they had more forwards than the England rugby team.
The positives would be if we play 4-3-3 then Barry has always been called a winger/striker in the mould of Karlan Grant.
If Barry plays on the left then CBT can switch to the right because he is two footed. As Corey had been successful on the left should he be moved ? Not sure CBT fitness levels should see him at wing back. I have always felt outside the Premier two strikers should be mandatory but if you have forwards who can play wide and get in the box when the ball comes from the other flank then with an attacking number 8 who can actually attack the box and score then fine. Hearing lots of coaches discussing 3-4-3 but our inability to keep our CB's fit may stop that happening.
Barry playing closer to Stockley or Aneke when CBT is out wide could be an exciting prospect in the mediocre 3rd tier.
Villa would be happier Barry playing League 1 next season if they can't fix him up with a Championship club where he gets plenty of game time.2 -
So Garner not only had him at Swindon but will also know him from WBA2

I like 343 but I think it's very difficult with only 2 central midfielders, even if one of them is Dobson.soapboxsam said:MarcusH26 said:Louis Barry would be an interesting one! Didn't do a lot at Ipswich but seems to be very highly rated at Villa.

It works for England, most of the time, but even that is more of a box midfield and Kane drops very deep.
We don't have the players to play it, but we don't have the players to play anything, well, yet.1 -
I don't think he's ready for Championship football yet anyway, seeing that he's only really played many games in L2.soapboxsam said:MarcusH26 said:Louis Barry would be an interesting one! Didn't do a lot at Ipswich but seems to be very highly rated at Villa.

The priority for Villa would surely be a "progressive" L1 side. MKD clearly have the advantage of an established playing style and success last season, we have the Garner factor0 - Sponsored links:

It's the 16th June, the players are not yet back for pre season testing, let alone training, we are in a heatwave, go get some sun, drink some water, take your tablets, and chill.

If we are to cherry pick the best of last season's L2 players, we have the perfect manager to do so as he would have seen them play Swindon, and will have watched loads of other matches too.0
