Don't get me wrong I will be delighted if he goes but I was completely baffled that he started on Saturday when he seemed part of the set up. This makes it frankly bizarre. I heard Amavi was originally due to play against Hull but was pulled out late on hence the idiot getting a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reports after game Saturday said the crowd reaction made Bacuna request the move. I think we went back to reading and then accepted the big.

Guaranteed not. Bacuna isn't the brightest and most composed of chaps. I can just imagine a fully pumped Bacuna wanting to impress putting every free kick into row Z, slapping his teammate and putting the nut on his manager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So influential that when he joined in January they were mid table and we'll clear of danger and they ended up just 6 points above the drop and lower down the table. Hardly influential. Listen I agree with you, I'd rather have kept Westwood than Bacuna, but some of the stuff you're saying to defend Westwood is a lie.

That's what I said. Blaming him for them dropping down the league?? well not sure what to say about that. It's there in black and white. No lies. Written facts from his manager / journos. But yeah. Better than bacuna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Thor had very little time playing in his natural position before he got injured so hard to judge how good he could be. Since returning from his injury he's had one real game playing against lower league opposition, on a swimming pool, playing out of position. I'd rather we wait to see how Thor plays when he's had a considerable amount of game time playing in his true position before labelling him as a failure. On the other hand, Bacuna has had plenty of game time and proven he is rubbish so can't wait to see him leave. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is he INFLUENTIAL though? In any way? After he joined, Burnley won 3 Games. The first win, Westwood wasn't in the squad. The second win, Westwood sat on the bench for the whole 90 minutes. He started and played the whole 90 in 1 win in half a season at Burnley. In the other 8 games Westwood was involved in albeit coming off the bench or starting and being subbed or playing 90, Burnley earned 3 points. 3 points from a possible 24 in which Westwood was involved in! Influential. Not on your nelly. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I actually think he will do really well at a new club. The problem with Bacuna is he has ability but he thinks he is a lot better than he actually is. He will constantly try things and get it wrong rather than just keep it simply. I honestly believe had he just kept his mouth shut and got on with playing football fans would have been happy with him as a squad player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
