Rightdm00 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 1 hour ago, Delphinho123 said: He needs to be dropped. He absolutely cannot continue to play in midfield for us. He has one move - receive the ball in the inside right position in midfield, open his body up and either clip the ball over the top or use his arse to defend the ball if he’s under pressure. He’s a very poor footballer at this level. You sure it isn't 2 moves. He can also do the 360 degree move where he shields the ball til he buys a foul. In all honesty I love his attitude and work rate but this level is so far beyond him. I watched Tarvernier at Bournemouth be twice the player against arsenal today. I don't understand why Steven has chained himself to McGinn. He is the most limited player in our starting eleven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1974Centenary Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Really strange making him captain,i wanted him dropped good player off the bench,maybe,but ultimately hes championship quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 He's worth 20-25 million to another team, speaks volumes. Do Man U not still want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the weakest link in our midfield (I know there are several) and it's baffling to imagine he is going to start every game. I've not spoken to a single Villa fan who has been anything other than completely perplexed by the decision to make McGinn captain so why aren't the media saying the same? Fans sing his name at games. I get the impression Gerrard and the media think Villa fans love him. We do love him for what he’s done but he’s not the present or the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a very poor footballer at this level. I'm sure he used to travel with the ball at pace when he first came, seems to be getting slower and slower. Reminds me of when a forward drops into midfield at the end of their career and tries to pick passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much where I am. He’s a championship player struggling at a level too high for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Zatman Posted August 20, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2022 Sad part is the manager has turned fans on McGinn He could have played a really big part as an impact sub with his energy but the clown made him the undroppable captain 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Mcginns stats vs luiz yesterday are a utter disgrace The biggest bollock gerrard made was making this unachieving guy our captain. Its a disgrace he is starting and bigger disgrace he is captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Gerrard has tied his managerial career to the ability of a player who is probably too good for the championship but not good enough to progress a team into the top half of the premier league. On the face of it, it's crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom13 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 It will never get any less insane that he plays the full 90 every game and has actually been made captain. Gerrard's bizarre obsession with the player is making him look absolutely clueless. I mean he obviously is, but it's now obvious to everyone.

Stoobs Posted August 21, 2022 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 21, 2022 I think there is a brilliant player in him but he is clearly a shadow of himself at the moment. I must admit, I don’t know how SG can’t see that. Drop him, bench him, get his appetite back for the fight and see where he goes. I certainly wouldn’t dismiss him. Playing terribly at moment but also managed terribly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing terribly at moment but also managed terribly. He ain't getting his form back, not a chance. You look at the bulk he has put on since he first signed, probably half the problem, he's so slow, an unfortunately it's not the way we need to be playing. He is no leader either, like people have said, it's shocking Gerrard has made him captain over Mings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am the same but I mean as a hero. McGinn will always be remembered fondly for helping us up but Gerrard constantly playing him will make fans think of him in a negative way going forward I wouldnt be surprised if he gets booed at VP soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
