Villarocker Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 9 hours ago, TB said: Oh, no, that won't work either :-) You'd still be wanting to get rid of both in an either/or hypothethical scenario. In the real world, however, I doubt any Villa fans would mind very much if the club sold both players and replaced them with better quality. Replacing them with nobody would be better quality!

Keener window-cleaner Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I was about to come on here and write in this thread just to hold my hands up and say that Bacuna actually had a decent game, mostly careful passing, no headless decisions and good behaviour. Then I saw him at the free kick towards the end of the game where he argued with Hourihane, refused to give him the ball, and then when Bruce apparently told him to step away, he walked away in protest and kept making gestures with his hands towards the bench and Hourihane. Rightfully booed the following times he touched the ball. Be part of the clear out please. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blunther Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 (edited) Didn't get involved in all the booing and stuff last season because of a quote taken out of context. But his stropping at not getting the free kick was shameful. Pushing Hourihane and then stropping off and not moving for five minutes was scandalous. Prick should have been dragged off even if it left us with nine men. Hopefully Bruce is telling him right now that's he's done here and to go and find himself a club Edited May 7, 2017 by blunther Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Let's not forget Bruce has continued to pick this guy. **** idiot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 We all know what Leo is going to 'deliver' and that's utter **** garbage, so why Bruce picks him is beyond me. Perhaps it's an attempt to put him in the shop window, but based on performances this season no one is going buy him, not even a Dutch 2nd division team.

mikeyp102 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Mr attitude strikes back, first moaned when we subbed off amavi as he didn't want to move to the right, and then tried to fight Hourihane for a freekick. Said it before but he seems just a horrible footballer. A major part of the problem at the club. Get rid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted May 7, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted May 7, 2017 Can't stand him playing. Would like him gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Didn't realise it was him arguing with Hourihane, thought a Brighton player was holding the ball or something. I don't understand why Bruce likes him so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Petulant child IMO. OK as a squad player but nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted May 7, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted May 7, 2017 He had an ok game but the antics with the free kick shows he's an utter prick. Sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 I think Bruce signed Bjarnsson to replace Bacuna as the energetic utility player in the team. Unfortunately, Bjarnsson then got injured and Bruce keeps bacuna in the team to do the running. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 If he is still her for pre season I will be livid. £1m or free, just get rid. His body language is an utter joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 He was part of the problem last year and hasn't offered much this year. Definitely needs to go now if we want to build and move on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted May 7, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted May 7, 2017 Thing is, he gets a lot of the ball because he is one of our only midfielders who constantly seeks the ball, making himself available and showing for it. Only problem is that he has no ability to do anything with it when he gets it.. Will either deliver an awful pass or go on a run and lose it. I wish though that some of the other midfielders would look and learn from his desire to get the ball. The rest of them just stand around doing nothing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 If we could get £500k for him i'd take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 If he's not Bruce's designated left-sided free kick taker, then I hope he gets a hefty fine for his antics today. We're supposed to be a team - you can't be arguing over who takes a free kick ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He fancied a shot on goal for some glory rather than going with what's best for the team. Sell him. In fact don't sell him. Pay for someone to take him.
