Popular Post villan_007 Posted April 10, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2015 I wish him all the best in his recovery but I thought he was a very poor player prior to getting injured. If we go down he might be useful otherwise I would be very surprised to see him start a game unless we have injuries/suspensions. Yeah one of those very poor strikers that score goals. Load of rubbish sean. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Be good to see him back on the bench for one of the games at home. He scores goals, what more can you ask. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 He also hit the ground running in the premier league. Even the great.henry took so months to get used to the league. Angel and even Benteke struggled early. Who knows how he would have settled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel and even Benteke struggled early. Who knows how he would have settled. No he didn't yeah he wasnt very convincing.. it took him 3-4 months to settle. Kozak didnt have that.. he was banging them in from the start. All i am saying.. is there is a learing curve in the premier league and with that 3-4 months he could have been really really good. Injury set back now.. we may never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 4 goals, while all well taken, is hardly banging them in. Will be a nice option to bring off the bench though for the last few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted April 10, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted April 10, 2015 Agreed. There were plenty of people on here announcing Benteke as another Heskey after his first couple of games 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 It was 4 league goals in about 10 games I think which include a few sub appearences so a pretty good ratio for his first few months. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't his goal to start ratio nearly .5? I think Jonah means that conclusively deriving from such a small sample of starts that he is a striker "that scores goals" is going overboard. Let's not forget that he's never dispayed any real proliferation in his career prior to Villa except in the Czech second division (I think) and one Europa League campaign against inferior sides.

Mantis Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Hopefully we shouldn't need him now as Benteke is on fire at the moment but we really could've used him earlier in the season. Looking forward to see him back regardless though. For what it's worth, if we go down and he stays I think he'll score loads in the Championship.

maqroll Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I have him penciled in as our Europa League dynamo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Load of rubbish sean. Did I say rubbish? He looked to me like he needs wingers to feed him, nothing wrong with that but we had DB at the time who scored for fun with Young and Downing but Lambert didn't like playing with width so maybe that's why I'm not impressed with what I saw. Who knows maybe Sherwood will play to his strengths but honestly I don't think he's good enough. Just so we are straight here you think he's a good player because he scored 4 goals in 10 games? Sorry but hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted April 11, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted April 11, 2015 At the moment I'm just glad he's back and playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6065_Villa Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I think he's a better player than we have seen so far do to Lambert's insistence on not playing with wingers. He reminds me of Alan Smith (Arsenal) who had good hold up play and scored a lot of his goals from balls across the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan4Life Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) Has Kozak played anymore Under 21 games since the Wolves game? Love to see him on bench for Sunday know it isn't gonna happen though!! Edited April 17, 2015 by Villan4Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Needs a few more weeks at least I reckon. Be great to have him back eventually and have another option up front though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Didn't play for the U21s yesterday. Does anyone know how far away he is from returning? He did play in at least one U21 game a few weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 .....Let's not forget that he's never dispayed any real proliferation in his career prior to Villa except in the Czech second division (I think) and one Europa League campaign against inferior sides. So he's in for half the cup games and a possible EL campaign then? off the bench and as another option up front aswell 10-20 possible appearances to find out if he really is PL standard ok with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
