Bunnski

He has got alot of game time there now and is scoring again now also, this bodes well for the future. Is his loan til January or the whole season?

It'll probably kill some people in here to admit that we have played well so far...

Blow it up ref

Lowton got raped there ffs

Nice first time ball from Westwood

We played great in the last game. Why change it?

We played really good against Spurs so I can understand us putting out the same team minus Benteke, the issue is whether the manager can get the team to perform to a high level again. We have been unlucky in the last 2 games, the players have given their all and have shown the fight required to win games. We just need a break today!!

Go to controller settings and find the select sides screen. Press square and you can adjust your pass assist level. You can also press square on the select sides screen that appears when loading the demo. I've been playing on 2 bar pass assist but find it problematic like you so am gonna drop it to 1 bar for the full game.

Anonymous today. Always takes the easy option, barely noticed him again today.

Completely unfair statement. Masons forehead was in his face, looked like it was touching his nose. Mason should have been given a yellow, and perhaps Benteke for reacting but there was nothing in it. He kicked out before that and totally lost the head. He deserved to be sent off.

I have no complaints about Lambert after todays game. We played some great football and had a good go at Spurs and could of easily scored 3 goals in the 1st half. The sending off was crucial to the outcome and is the main reason why we lost.

Benteke you absolute clown. That is all!

Have to say that I'm yet to see anything of a high quality from Cleverley in all of his games for us so far. Barely noticing him again today.

Very open game, hopefully things tighten up 2nd half. Benteke has been great except for when he didn't pass to Westwood.

greedy by Benteke, Westwood would of been in there if he passed it

wtf was Vlaar doing for that Adebayor chance?

Starts for Brighton in the 5.15 game on sky sports, Bennett also starts.

Where is the proof that Swansea bid 2.5m for him? You don't know the truth about any of the claims you made in that post unless you work for one of the clubs in question!!

How many good chances did we create? 2 good shots from outside the box by The Rock and Westwood, Clark had 2 really good chances and Benteke glanced a header wide so I make that 5 good chances.

Give him til January. I just watched the 1st half from the other night again and we started really well and were playing some good football but went to shit when they scored which can be down to confidence after the bad run we had previous to that game. I still have a small hope that Lambert might get things right here and I'd give him til the end of December to sort it and to see if things improve when we are playing easier teams and have a more forgiving run of fixtures than the 5 we had before QPR. If we can have a bit of good luck with injuries and get our strongest team out for an extended run then things have to improve, if not, then that will be it for me and my support of Lambert.

Fair enough. If Westwood was playing in a system like what Swansea play then I believe you would see why I think he is pure class. It's hard for him to play to his full potential in our team atm working under an old fashioned manager with crap tactics.Surely if he needs to play in another team to show he is pure class, that kind of hints at the idea that he is yet to show anything pure class in this team/or is even pure class. Asking the question, what on earth have you seen? With the greatest respects, it's a bit weak to say he needs to be in a different team to show he's pure class. Maybe a different team would get the best out of him, but I believe we'd know if he was pure class, regardless of our system. I said he would shine if we played a system similar to what Swansea play not that he has to play for another team to show he is class. Do you think that it could be the case that he is restricted in showing how good he is by having to play so deep and his influence on a game could be restricted due to being asked to fulfill certain duties by Lambert? You're right you did say that - my bad. Misread it. Erm, to an extent yes, and there is an arguement for a number if players in terms of that. However, I just don't see a top class player in there and I believe I would. Quite a bad example given the obvious gulf in class, but when messi plays for Argentina it's in a system that doesn't suit him (or was). You could still see his level of ability and he stood out from the rest. I don't see any unique ability from Westwood, that I don't see in the other 9 or so players we've got out there. I agree that a different approach might suit him a bit better, but I'd very much doubt a pure class player would jump out of nowhere. Well I guess time will tell, not much else to debate on this. I rate him, you don't.

It's been obvious for a long time that Westwood isn't a premier league quality DMF. The only person who hasn't noticed is Lambert. Hopefully Sanchez has won a place in the team now which will allow Westwood to push up more and have a bigger influence on games. He had a bad game last night but he is the only player who axtually put some quality balls into our attackers.

What Villa players do you rate? also which Villa players do you think have played class since the Liverpool game?
