  1. Very very interesting..

    He has been signed as a number 8..

    Like a Ruben Loftus Cheek type of player..

    To be fair Unai has always liked his 6’2 plus CM players like Capoue & Nzonzi..

    Maybe he is trying to replicate something similar?

  2. He needs to diversify his game..

    I would like to see him improve his passing in attacking positions..

    Can he switch play?

    Use outside of his foot to put the ball into the box?

    He is a top 8 player but he needs to improve his passing and movement off the ball..

    I agree with that....but its a bit more than that too.

    We always seem to find a way, of playing in to their hands, in terms of style....we was wide open at times.

    performances like that are nothing new to us, up there, and it has been with different personnel over the years.....its an approach, we get wrong.....and the way the game played out, has been played that way so many times.

    Its simply Naive.

    I agree with you, we are accustomed to this type of outcome.

    Ive seen enough from the coaches and players to know in two weeks the mood and results will be completely different to what we are facing today..

  4. It takes a certain mentality to have that killer instinct away from home..

    We don’t fully have it yet.

    Players like Emi, Watkins, Pau have it..

    This is what separates top 4 to the rest of the league..

    We as fans are learning because we haven’t been in this situation before and we are understanding what it takes to be a top4 team..

  5. The fact that two papers have articles make me think that he is going to announce his retirement..

    Dreadful and very hard news for us fans and the club.. and most importantly Tyrone..

    I am holding out a glimmer of hope..

  6. Honestly, I am still trying to get my head around a CB that excels in passing more than defending.

    During 1v1 situation on the break he gets twisted pretty easily which means he requires cover..

    Because he is so elegant and gifted as a ball playing defender its one of those situations that if we win he gets the plaundits for a masterclass performance.

    I am not convinced by his defensive abilities.. Rarely do I see him win aerial battles or get the better of a player in 1v1 situations..

    I am optimistic that he will find his feet in terms of the defensive side of the game.

    Offensively he offers something that no other Defender has in a Villa shirt..
