steell Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 One of our new signings, I forget which one, when asked to summarise his new teams mates said 'Brett Holman - does that guy ever stop running?'. I think it was Benteke, as he approached Holman's car at a stop light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si. Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 is it me, or does Holman look a little like Olof mellberg?? He looks more like AVB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killeen30 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 He looks more like Bryan Adams! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 He played for Aussies in mid week didn't he? So might be a bit tired with the travelling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozvillafan Posted September 13, 2012 Author VT Supporter Share Posted September 13, 2012 They didn't play in Aus. Still travelled though - but only to Jordan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 They didn't play in Aus. Still travelled though - but only to Jordan. Might as well have stayed home though :oops: He was crap. Pity the coach didn't think Herd wasn't the right fit for his squad. Not pea-hearted enough I guess. :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 is it me, or does Holman look a little like Olof mellberg??No, but there's no need for alarm friend. It's merely a natural, subconcious yearning to see King Olof in his glory once more. We've all been there. I often see Mellberg's bewhiskered face myself, sometimes when I gaze wistfully through a window or sometimes in the face of my girlfriend as I make sweet love to her. I often see his bearded mush as I make sweet, sweet love to your girlfriend as well. Could well be the mask I make her wear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I thought he was great today. A little clumsy at times but he never stops. Lambert obviously didn't sign him but he seems to embody the work ethic the manager wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEAP Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I do think he lakes a techincal quality in the sense he seems to bottle on the final pass or a simple forward ball in the attacking quater; it could be a matter of sharpness but this lad is either going to be a 'oh i remember him sort of' player or a fan favourite imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 He was excelelnt today. Covered loads of ground and always involved. Love the lads workrate and deservedly the sponsores man of the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronk-villa Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Lambert seemed to love him when he took him off. he puts in such a shift it's untrue. He allows us an extra "Stephen Ireland" on the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 at times it looks like he has studied at the nigel reo coker school of football, but he has unbelievable workrate. he closes down players so fast. i think working with a manager who values good control and passing will help holman. any player can get to a good level of technique with good coaching and training Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tismyk Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 He was excellent today, put in extra work rate to cover for Ireland who was a waste of space again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciggiesnbeer Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Great player. Never stops. When we dont have possession he is like having 1.5 of a player on the pitch. He really adds a lot to our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Great player ronaldo is a great player, messi is a great player, iniesta is a great player. brett holman is not a **** great player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Superb today - like having an extra player. Very reminiscent of Des Bremner - but quicker, for the modern era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
