It's Your Round Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 19 minutes ago, nick76 said: I’m still hoping we sign a captain figure! I really feel we need a brilliant captain in this team. I love Mings and I think he’s a great ambassador but not convinced re the on-field captain role. I don’t see any of the other players being that captain figure either and with Gerrard banging on about mentality, which I agree with, I think we need that player on the pitch that others look to and I currently don’t see that. Why don’t you think Mings is captain material? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An advantage of us doing our business early and giving Sevilla a few quid means they are in a much better to fend off our PL competition from buying their other star players on the cheap. Its lovely to see our club as the ones that get it right. Our transfer window is looking like the Man Utd transfer windows when SAF was there. Quick, decisive, quality signings and picking up the out of contract star player for free that lots of clubs wanted. The latter half of June and July and Aug will be quite boring for Villa fans. I am already looking forward to Jan to see the players we pick up after the world Cup I've seen people saying it..... Carlos is a left sided centre back remember 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are loads of minor reasons that on there own aren’t enough but compiled together just make me feel he’s not the on-field captain we need. I think he’s a fabulous ambassador off the field for both Villa and his causes but on the field he sorts the defence out and keeps talking which is all great but a captain needs to have more. I also think he needs to refocus on his own game for a bit game to help with that but that doesn’t really come into my reasoning why I want a different captain. It seems from the rumours that Gerrard will be changing the captain as well,so maybe he might have similar thoughts. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might benefit him, less pressure. He was much better season before when Grealish was captain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a side full of stinking pre-maddonas at Everton, he literally died on his sword pretty much every game when they were in relegation trouble. He was lauded by their fans for being the only one who seemed to care at one stage (along with Pickford). I agree. Instrumental keeping them up and in a better team I think he could be brilliant. I love his attitude and think he'd be perfect for us to lead the line. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Roma will take him as Smalling plays LCB and I don't think they'd play both. Unless Smalling is leaving of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) It's a bad side relative to what we have now, but that line-up for the Sheffield Wednesday game isn't that bad by championship standards, at least for the time, Gollini, Westwood, Ayew, Amavi, and Grealish went on to have careers playing top flight football, Elphick had just captained Bournemouth to promotion, Hutton and Cissokho were experience Premier League players, and Gested and McCormack were proven goal scorers at championship level, even Gary Gardner had been decent on his loans to championship clubs. Of course some of those players' careers went pretty much down hill from there, but the perception of them was different at the time.
