mattyvilla Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Aly's biggest flaw is the fact we don't have a decent winger playing in front of him , Aly clearly cant deliver a good ball into the box , the fact that we still expect him to be the main supply is a joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YLN Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 last time I checked the left back was to defend and Cissokho does that well enough. Maybe a left back's job was to defend back when Villa last won the FA Cup, but football has changed a lot since then. A left back has to be able to make runs forward with and without the ball, in the same way that and because a right sided midfielder needs to be able to defend. Cissokho has as much attacking nous as my toilet brush. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Yes fullback roles have changed somewhat. Its not enough to be just decent in one area. If we could merge Bennett and Cissokho into one player that we would have a good left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Yes fullback roles have changed somewhat. Its not enough to be just decent in one area. If we could merge Bennett and Cissokho into one player then we would have a totally useless left back. Corrected for you! I guess we won't have time to change set up, but I have said many many times, the idea to coach Cissokho and Hutton to play as attacking full backs is detrimental on the fact we find it almost impossible to score goals. Most of the time they just bypass the midfield, this has gone on all season under Lambert, which is half the reason the midfield have been clueless how to get involved. They just get left behind and seems have not been coached to make forward runs. I rate Hutton and Cissokho AS DEFENDERS, as wingers they are f***** useless. Maybe Hutton less so.

You're agreeing with Paul's (original) point. What paul was saying was merge Cissokho's defending abilities with Bennet's attacking abilities and you'd get a decent left back, because Cissokho isn't very good at attacking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Maybe we sellotape Bennet to Cissokho, slip a XXL shirt over em and hope no one notices our new player has 4 legs. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 After Bennett and Luna, I'm content to have a left-back that isn't an unmitigated liability defensively, for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Let's hope at least one of Hutton or Cissokho makes it otherwise we might have to see Baker at LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabby Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Going forward he is dodgy but he can defend meanwhile Richardson is hopeless at both aspects of his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
