Tomaszk Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 He started well at Villa and fell apart the same time everyone else did. A centre half who can head the ball will be needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My abiding memory of Collins' first stint here was his enthusiasm to over-commit and rush out to meet the attacker in no man's land, leaving the space behind him exposed and prone to either the killer pass or space to run into if he's beaten in the resulting one on one. He probably won't do as much of that this time around both because he's older and hopefully because he has learned not to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheStagMan Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Welcome back James. 5 week contract makes sense. Hopefully he will give his all to try and get a longer one, or one somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted November 30, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) Chester, Collins, Taylor we've got the welsh defence, might as well get the midfield too, next up Bale.

holteend1982 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 This shows how desperate we are for defenders, what was Bruce thinking not bringing in any cb at all, pisses me off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Love this, not the signing, not the player, the fact we have convinced him to take a 5 week deal and maybe earn a 6 monther. Years gone by we would have gave him a year deal on good wages ala Samba. No, these old **** should be honoured and bending over backwards to wind down their careers at a great club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I probably wouldn't ask him to bend over to be fair Rodders, he might not be able to get back up again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I'm pretty sure Bruce thought that French center back was in the bag. Sending Elphick on loan with only 1 center back (Bruce saw Axel as a right back) was absolutely insane. Having Collins as an option is a lot better imo than forcing Hutton or Bree at center back.
