Keyblade Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 While not an ideal partnership, I'm pretty sure we wouldn't be in this mess had Vlaar and Dunne been playing instead of Clark and Baker (who I still think will become good players for us). If he comes back and helps stabilizes our defence and keeps us up...then gets off the books at the end of the season that would be a win-win situation for us.

Jarpie Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Dunne havent played for 7 months so he wont be up to speed in at least a couple of games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Without dunnes performances at the end of last season, we'd have gone down. We badly need him back. Best centre half at the club for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I can't wait for him to come back. We desperately need his experience now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Dunne set to resume training. Didn't think I'd be so happy to see this fatty back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaForever1970 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Will dunne and concrete play at the same time though, seem pretty similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Will dunne and concrete play at the same time though, seem pretty similar? In fairness Clark and Baker seems pretty similar as well, they're both utterly incompetent! I joke, I actually rate Baker quite highly and I hear Clark did well at the weekend. But I'd much sooner get some experience back into the team with Vlaar and Dunne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 His OG's will further add to our negative GD Lets face it he's going to score at least one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Maybe we are planning on selling him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 No one will bother buying him when they can have him for free in a few months. We might as well make use of him if he can get match fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 His OG's will further add to our negative GD Lets face it he's going to score at least one yes becausde he has 20 since he joined the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Me either. How low we've sunk. Whilst I don't really rate him this is a bit harsh and consistantly one of the most pointless comments on Villa Talk. Dunne will give us that "PL experience and quality" that people bang on about ..... the shouts of "AWAY!" when the ball comes into the box have been conspicuous by thier absence.

AVFCforever1991 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 He is a calamitous defender, but at least he has experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 (edited) Whilst I don't really rate him this is a bit harsh and consistantly one of the most pointless comments on Villa Talk. Dunne will give us that "PL experience and quality" that people bang on about ..... the shouts of "AWAY!" when the ball comes into the box have been conspicuous by thier absence. At the start of the season people (like me) would have said that Dunne was one of the players we needed to replace because he wasn't good enough. Now we have to rely on him as some sort of saviour to try and keep us up, dark days... how many calamitous defenders make team of the season? Off the top of my head, Pascal Chimbonda for one...

Now we have to rely on him as some sort of saviour to try and keep us up, dark days... I think most of the issues with Dunne centre around his drinking, his weight and his attitude rather than his ability. Is waiting for an experienced international centre half to return from injury to replace an inexperienced product of the youth academy an indication of "dark days" or "how far we have fallen?"

El-Reacho Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 He's no athlete - so shouldn't take him too long to get up to his level of match fitness ;-) Back for WBA game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Would prefer Dunne in the team rather than Clark or Baker so good news that he is back training. Hopefully Dunne gives us a good few months and then we can replace him in the summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Not the best we all know that, but could captain the side better than anyone we have in the squad at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
