Czarnikjak Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago 5 minutes ago, AshVilla said: Loves it when were winning and celebrating like a cheerleader but when were under the pump he's completely invisible. May as well have had a statue in midfield today, truly awful. That's what Everton fans were saying but were they were laughed off here and Dyche was blamed for Onanas deficiencies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trickster Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago (edited) I think some people are expecting things that are unreasonable from him compared to what his position is. Wouldn't even be in the top 5 poorest players today, made quite a few important interceptions and tackles. Not saying he was great but did ok. The worst thing he could almost do was score those early goals in his Villa career for some. Edited 22 hours ago by Trickster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Have to admit right now he doesn't look a £50 million player 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villanmac Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Doesn't look comfortable on the ball in tight spaces. Doesn't show for it, I know we want Tielemans receiving it but **** me he's got to do more on the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't expect too much, bot not a single forward pass from £50m player? He needs to more on the ball against inferior opposition. Otherwise only play him against teams like City or Arsenal where we don't have the ball. Edited 22 hours ago by Czarnikjak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cizzler Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Can’t wait until Kamara’s back. Only thing he’s better than Kamara at is defending set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHY Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago (edited) He is what he is, from what I’d seen of him at Everton I wasn’t expecting a lot. Paid £20 million too much for him but he’s been ok. Not at Kamara’s level imo. Edited 22 hours ago by WHY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago He’s still a work in progress. I think we’re starting to get a more realistic picture of his strengths and weaknesses. Personally I’d be tempted to give Barkley a start. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Certainly dropped off since his debut. Don't really have alternatives at the moment so he will keep playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For £50m you expect a lot better. Can see why Unai wanted Conor Gallagher ahead of Onana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still pretty young and has an enormous amount of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyVillans Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago thought he was alright in the 2nd half. Ramsey, konsa, carlos were bigger issues 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
