I think most people , Villa fans and Non Villa fans accept that he is a Top Defender, but has a lapse in him. They seem less frequent recently obviously. Either way, I don't get why we feel the need to put down other top players, to big up our own. Just as when Jack was here, the likes of Mount, Sterling and Foden were apparently " shite ". Lol Maguire is a top player. Every player has a mental lapse in them. Just watch Maguire highlights of all the errors he’s made. Some of the things he’s done, Mings would get slaughtered for on here. But we aren’t labeling Maguire as “always has an error in him.” Regardless, I agree with you. We don’t need to pull someone down to prop up another. We should be able to objectively analyze players but I know, I know… it’s VT, lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stones is not a bad player to be fair, but if he played for us, he would not be an auto choice for England. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 whoever started this thread should be ashamed. You know we are gonna eat ourselves in this thread with 4 months to go until the window even open!? I think there must be a Gollum version of time spent too long in a VT transfer thread, we are all gonna look like this: "buy him this window....my precious" 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the focus on Maguire yet Stones missing getting some scrutiny because if he played for any non-six club he wouldn’t be starting. Ah great, I take it we no longer have to strictly stick to the Jan transfer window as long as we are discussing Villa players and transfers.

I hate Southgate. Jack is now an automatic, and features in the first 11.....primarily due to the extensive and prolonged work on the training Ground with Pep. Its clear for all to see the huge improvement in his game, to warrant such a move, by the international manager.....perhaps at the Euro final he was being saved for the world cup.

He is not short of a bit of inflated self confidence Knew Carlton, when he was at the Albion, used to come in my pub, and we used to talk "Villa"... down to me I suppose. I found him a good lad.....plenty of grit, but would need more refinement now. We used to have some good conversations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
