Mantis Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I don't know how anybody can honestly say that "Vlaar isn't up to standard". It's no coincidence that as soon as he's out injured we go from looking like a team with an ok defence to a team with a dreadful defence. Would be surprised if Holtby be would be a Lambert type of player. The way he has set us up is to hoof the ball therefore I wouldn't be surprised to see another 6 foot plus forward rather than an attacking midfielder with decent technique. I don't know why people automatically think that height determines what kind of player you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Yaya Toure is 8 foot 3 and has some of the best technique I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever consider he plays that way because he does not have the money to buy players who can play any other way? So he can't buy players capable of passing a football?

Big_John_10 Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 I think vlaar is an average prem player. Hardly worthy of praise IMO. He's been an OK signing, nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 defence is clearly a lot worse without him. this and last season has proved that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) Holtby starting today so guess he is part of Tottenhams/Sherwood's plans. Edited December 26, 2013 by Tayls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted December 26, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted December 26, 2013 The thing is if lerner decides to be more ambitious we now have pretty much an entire squad that needs to be replaced. Hmmm I disagree... I think if we were to buy 2 or 3 quality players in the summer we'd be comfortably mid-table. Then the summer after that bring in 2 or 3 more quality players and make a push for 8th. But I don't see Lerner allowing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
