DutchVilla Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 When he was playing at AZ Alkmaar I saw him a lot. He has had some real increadible games, but after he went to Villa it looks like he lost it...... When he signed I was really thrilled to see him come, but now he's just another number on the wage-list..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Started season brightly ? Or was it just a novelty seeing someone run about psychotically like theyd just downed 3 cans of Monster Have you tried running after downing a monster? It is not easy. It is actually quite painful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 think if we are going to persist with Bennett we need to play Holman just in front of him to give him protection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted February 6, 2013 Author VT Supporter Share Posted February 6, 2013 think if we are going to persist with Bennett we need to play Holman just in front of him to give him protection Holman is not a wide player, sadly. His "best" position is just behind the strikers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodigan Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 looks to have been kicked in the nuts for the last few games.... his value on the pitch is a tireless workrate, harassing and getting in the face of the opposition, and i just haven't seen that happen of late... there were a couple of games earlier in the season where i got that sense of urgency from the whole team, with holman leading from the front.... PL needs to find that confidence and instil it back in bretty - if he can get zoggy firing, lets hope he can do the same for holman... we need every single player to be playing at the tops of their games (whatever that may be) between now and may for us to stand any chance lets smash wet spam this weekend...

VILLAMARV Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 When I'm watching us on the telly and my missus is in the room (she wont be paying attention) if I ever cheer for no reason at all she now asks "did that australian do a pass?"

VillanousOne Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I though both KEA and Holman were meant to be able chase down players and give our defence some protection, Holman seems to have lost it and KEA couldn't get near his reflection let alone another player anymore.

Robbie09 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Poor player, mirror image of the manager who signed him. Hard working and honest but nowhere near good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBM Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 KEA couldn't get near his reflection let alone another player anymore. what a brilliant quote as for holman, i still havnt figured him out yet, he runs and runs, but theres nothing at the end of it, wasnt tony daley like that?

MagicMushroom Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 8 months in I still don't know position he plays He would probably do well behind a front two, but i have no evidence to back that up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBM Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 i thought he was either a forward or right winger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 For me he's like a very bad version of Park Ji Sung. Runner without the footballing touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMushroom Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) i thought he was either a forward or right winger? Aussie footballer of the year aswell. So must have a lot more in his locker. Just think that our lack of ambition effects players motivation, and that effects performance. Could say the same with a lot of our squad.

I think this is a what came first statement. Perhaps its as simple as having shit players affects performance Seriously, I'm confused at the long way round in logic in your post ps my feeling is Holman isn't actually that good. He gets paid to play football, fss. It's a GAME - survival or not. Edited February 25, 2013 by praisedmambo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
