sir_gary_cahill Posted February 2, 2016 Author Share Posted February 2, 2016 Brilliant performance from him in the youth cup tonight, although we got knocked out, he was fantastic in the first half. He's so quick and skilful and he's got a great football brain to go with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 fair play to the lad, put in 2 decent crosses and rightfully had a go at Gestede for not even making a move for one. Seems to have character and offered more as a wide threat than Sinclair ever has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Great to see him get some minutes. I wasn't really expecting him to do much considering how the game was going but he done well, excited to seem him more often next season hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villanwesty88 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 A breath of fresh air for us today. Some of these youth players could be very important next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Was this the kid who was very highly rated years back but had a bad injury? Or was that Jordan Graham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Sounds like he did well. As I've been saying many times on here, 2-3 of our best youngsters really should be given a go, if not from the start then at least be a regular feature from the bench. Game time in the premier league will only benefit them, and they will not do any worse than the 'regulars'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 He's a very talented young player, very good debut from him in my opinion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Didn't look out of place when he came on and didn't look nervous at all. He must be buzzing tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 half an hour of tidy, more traditional wing play. Held his own against the best defensive unit in the league and put the ball into dangerous areas, never looking like the occasion would get to him. If I'm being super critical, he was a little slow to close down while defending. B+, deserves future appearances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanky Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Looked like he could actually play football. Look like he was keen to take the game to the opposition which I liked. The rest really are an embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Did well, more effort than the rest of the team and actually tried to make something happen. Wasn't scared to get on the ball and try beat an opponent. Along with other youth players deserves to play more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As various websites don't have where he comes from within it's information From the OS: Quote Andre Green has risen through the Bodymoor Heath ranks to U18 level. The wide player/centre forward from Solihull signed at the age of nine. Quick developer Green made his U21 debut as a 15-year-old back in January 2014. He made the senior matchday XI for the first time as an unused substitute in Villa's final Premier League match of the 2014/15 campaign against Burnley. Green netted his first goal of the season for the U18s in October 2015 - a fine solo effort to earn a 1-0 win over Fulham at Motspur Park. He is now a second year scholar for the 2015/16 season. http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10265~5111808,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
