AV82 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Clearly isn’t settled, should be featuring from the bench if at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.Bear Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Just now, abdomlahor said: where? He's barrel chested. Look at his arms, he hasnt been in any weight room so there's no muscle there. He's noticeably slower than earlier in the season and the other Villa fan said the same thing. He's overweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Sell him. His pace is a myth, he’s greedy and has no discernible quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is he being rewarded with 90 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I think it's now a matter of how much we can sell him for. Minimal loss hopefully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually looked better in the second half, of the second half. He needs minutes, confidence, and to get up to speed. It's not down to SG that he looks much slower than he is in peak condition and makes some poor decisions. I’m really looking forward to when he settles, I think he’ll be a game changer but I don’t know what you saw today mate because I thought he was pretty useless all game and I would just love to see a glimpse of his pace in a Villa shirt.

Zhan_Zhuang Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Let's face it, he was a total panic signing after losing our best player. Traore had a very good season last year and yet we signed Buendia and Bailey who also play right side. Lack of planning from Villa. Just because he scored in the Bundesliga doesn't mean he'd do well in the PL, Sancho also looks pretty average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw glimpses of, " ok " as in the bare minimum expected so not really any sort of endorsement. lol So maybe a run or 2 without losing the ball and successfully passing it to a team mate. Yes definitely poor overall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROTTERDAM1982 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 I think he is the kind of player we need. A fast attacking wide player who can score goals/create chances, a bit like Bellamy used to be. But he is so off form you wonder if he is ever going to reach the level we need. Play him every game until the end of the season. He could save us £40m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 trying to shoehorn him into being a number 10 certainly isn't gonna get a tune out of him. he's direct winger or inside forward, use him as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s keeping trying the same players elsewhere week in week out the main issue. Gerrard needs to look at the next 6 games as an opportunity to revaluate the squad, rather panicking and starting the usual ones with the feel of risking the results which aren’t looking like coming.

AndyM3000 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Had 3 spells out with injury and didn't get a pre-season. I don't really think he's suited to this system but needs a chance to get himself fit and in form. Nobody looks good at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 It's kind of like Shevchenko and Torres at Chelsea. I remember the calls of just needs to settle. Give him a pre season. No amount of settling or running brings back your legs once they've gone. I can't believe this guy is 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we will at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaParkAvenue Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 He would probably do better if he was in better shape, but you’d hope they could work on that between games? It may be harsh but it’s up to him to work hard, get in shape, and grab the chances off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
