The version of him we signed could have made the step up to the Premier league but that injury he got at the end of his first season really did him in. I'd hoped that he would relish the challenge this season but he's just never seemed bothered at any point. Hopefully him leaving means another striker is coming in soon.

Recovered from his illness just in time, why do they lie to us

Chicken and Egg, was he not bothered because he wasn't playing or not playing because he wasn't bothered

The ankle injury ruined Kodija, shame as he was a great talent

If he gave a stuff he'd have looked half interested when he did get on. Davis always does. Kodjia has been pathetic every time his stepped onto the pitch this season.

It’s probably his last move so I’m not going to criticise him for making some money out of it. He’ll earn more over there than he would in the championship. I think he’s probably lost interest as he’s been sitting on the bench all season watching Wes struggle and still not had a look in.

Yes indeed it did. The first time i saw him live i said this lad has got it. He was excellent if a tad selfish till he got that injury.

Aston Villa's transfer dealings over the summer were largely left field as we looked to rebuild our depleted squad ahead of our return to the Premier League and we've definitely see a few hits and misses so far, so with reports saying we are close to striking a deal for Genk attacker Mbwana Samatta, plenty of fans will be keeping their counsel.

It is a bit odd why they have to do that.
Or maybe the lies are for other clubs to not know our business?

To not rip apart a player they’re trying to sell, and ruin the value and deal.

Can't get excited about some player I know nothing about playing in a league that is a level below our Championship. Have we not learnt this lesson yet? Wesley and Nakamba are not Premier League standard. We got lucky with Benteke and he did well for us but he's not exactly ripping it up at Palace is he? And this new guy will set us back £8.5m too. If he was that good the big boys would have been sniffing around long before now. This smacks of desperation or a hit and hope.

I see we’ve learnt our lesson from the summer then! Not impressed at all. Who is still making these decisions? I doubt this is Deano’s decision (note. he was talking about how hard ‘the powers that be’ are working) but he’ll still get the blame when it doesn’t work. Ridiculous

The really big boys don’t sniff around the Belgian league unless it’s super obvious a player is or will be world class. They can afford to go for more sure fire things, proven at the top level. It’s why you so rarely hear of top clubs buying lower league players. It happens, but very rarely. They don’t have to risk it when they could just buy a player once they’ve had a successful season or two at top level.

Must admit I always referred to the powers that be when I didn't agree with management at work, which was most of the time to be honest
