Rightdm00 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 10 minutes ago, Cizzler said: I’m not blaming him, or writing him off. But he shouldn’t play another minute this season. So timid to engage, did nothing on the ball. Lost Trossard for the first goal, lost the run in behind for the second goal. Just looked dreadful. It’s telling that he’s a step down from Cash, who’s one of the weakest players in our first XI. Definitely one for the future. This opportunity has come a bit to soon though. Only 18 so the fact he looks just slightly off the pace and not completely lost speaks volume. All the potential in the world, no need to rush this one.

Dale Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Didn't look a step down from Cash at all. Super promise. Going to be exceptional 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Come on against one of the best teams in the Premier league, he won't take long to adjust, going to be some player & only 18 yrs old just ridiculous, what a find from the scouts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Promising. Much lest nervous than his debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pongo Waring Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 I like him but he's clearly not ready! Should loan him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LxYoungAVFC Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 He was timid but the occasion was massive. Still think he'll be starting games by Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just came on and held his own against one of the best teams in the league. What's the point of loaning him out?

Farlz Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 I thought he was fine Did lack a bit going forward though probably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 He looked exactly who/what he is - an 18 year old kid being thrown in against Arsenal. Absolutely no shame in it at all. As said above, he'll be our first choice right back next season 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHY Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Kid done well, it’s amazing how some fans think an 18 year old coming to a new country is going to be be brilliant from the off. Great experience for him today and he didn’t let anyone down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdulaziz1 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 He’s done fine. Against the best PL team bar City. We were unlucky to lose that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First good set of minutes in league against potentially the best team, thought myself he acquitted himself ok but nope he's not Premier League ready on this small eye test to some. “Villa talk never changes”… then proceeds to rehash exactly what everyone else has said above, that he’s not ready for the PL yet but one for the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Impressive considering he was subben on early without preparation. Still only 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no shame in it at all. As said above, he'll be our first choice right back next season Yep. Didn't look out of his depth, but clearly plenty to improve upon, as you would expect. The fact Emery trusts him is a massive positive because he could have brought Carlos on and moved Konsa to RB, like he did last time we played Arsenal.

tinker Posted August 24 VT Supporter Share Posted August 24 Did enough to start if Cash is injured. He needs game time to improve. We still need another RB though, if Cash is out then we are weakened in defense with Konsa having to fill in while he develops, he's not going to playing 90 minutes game after game.
