bose Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Ugh I know kinda wish that that header had gone in. That final was in retrospect one my most miserable experiences as a Villa fan (plenty of competition though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted August 6, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2015 Basically, regardless of how he played last season, I think we're all agreed he's not good enough to be a regular there for us. The debate really is whether we'd prefer him or Bennett as backup. Personally it's Richardson all day long. But it's just the least crap player of the two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted August 6, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2015 Happy for him to remain as a back up. His goal line clearance preventing a Stevie G love-in cup final day means I can never take a total dislike to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Doubt he is on much so wouldn't mind if he stayed as a utility player that can come in if needed. Rather he went though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villanwesty88 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I'd put Richardson as our number 2 LB. No one would buy him and even if they did we could't replace him with the fee we get. He's not too bad as a no.2 choice LB. I'd send Bennett on loan for another season then re-evaluate him again next summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunkyluke Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Think he will be more utilised in midfield this coming season. Definitely keep a hold of him though as if it hits proverbial fan with injuries he can put in a shift in a few positions. As back up it depends on the game. Think we will see both at LB at times depending how we go. Sherwood, I think, will feel it important to get Bennet a little game time of the situation arises.

VillaChris Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Don't want to see Bennett play for us again tbh so Richardson as back up please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Did himself no favours today. Pretty much ambled around the pitch like it was his own testimonial with no urgency at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.Bear Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 He's just rubbish. Versatile squad filler but utterly mediocre whenever he plays. We need to get riff raff like this out of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Utter garbage. He barely had anything to do, and did it all terribly. Don't want to see him in the squad again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimcohen Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 He offers flexibility off the bench in that he can come in at lb, cm or lw but the problem is he is pretty average in all positions and not really an impact player so sub doesn't suit. With 7 subs available I think flexibility for positions is over rated. Wouldn't make my squad and with jack and Gil back he won't make TS either.

With 7 subs available I think flexibility for positions is over rated. Wouldn't make my squad and with jack and Gil back he won't make TS either. He's cover for tiredness and injuries. While he won't offer impact, he'll offer fresh legs and a reasonable degree of competency in a variety of positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While he won't offer impact, he'll offer fresh legs and a reasonable degree of competency in a variety of positions. Any sub offers freshness to be fair. And as said before, I think the multi cover thing is not needed when you have 7 options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
