He played in pre season and played two games before his injury I saw him at Sevilla as well and never filled me with confidence Laursen got injured early on but always looked assured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I think he needs a top defender next to him. Almost like how Konsa looked much better with Mings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played well, but then the whole team was playing in a state of transcendent bliss. And he had Torres and Konsa flanking him. I hope he's not written off entirely. There's still a lot of games to be played, including in Europe. He'll have opportunities to showcase what he's capable of in a Villa shirt.

the_eristic Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 2 hours ago, DJBOB said: I thought his passing was pretty good really and he was finding Watkins between the lines really well. But his defending is unaffecting at best. Strangely a more technical defender than imposing himself for as big as he is. He's always been a ball playing defender with good recovery pace... which I fear has left him post injury. He's not terribly tall and has never been strong in the air nor inclined to go to ground, the defensive side of his game used to be more like Ezri's, cut off the angle, get between the player and the ball, shepherd them away or get in a block. I think opponents are just able to get away from him too easily now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeroy Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 How the f*ck are all these injuries possible? What are they doing to get them? Surely this isn't just bad luck? I don't rate Carlos at all but we literally have no one to play there. Chambers is an even bigger car crash than Carlos and Kamara is out, Konsa is out, Mings is out, Torres is back on the bench but Emery won't play him. Just close down the Champions League thread, it ain't happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
