AVTuco Posted January 26, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 26, 2015 I still maintain he is a good player. Not very visible, and not a game changer, but a good player who can do many things. I loath the "fans" who reportedly booed him before the game. Ignorant bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I'd be very surprised if he signs for us now whether we want him or not, I've never supported booing individual players or cheering when they're taken off, Alpay aside That said, he really hasn't impressed anyone has he? I'd still take him as I think he just needs confidence which he sure as shit won't get here with the boo boys on his back all the time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I don't think he played that well yesterday. His best game was easily against Burnley, other than that he's been truly awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I'm not Cleverley's biggest fan but wishing injury upon him is extreme. I don't get the pathological hatred from some in all honesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliffy Biro Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Its nothing personal and i don't wish an injury on anyone, hes just totally rubbish and shouldn't be a guaranteed starter every week which he seems to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I'm no fan but he's been better than Delph and Sanchez so far 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 better at doing what? 5 yard sideways pass to the nearest bloke? cos to be fair he's smashing them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Has no ability to create a yard of space for himself meaning his only passing options are sideways or backwards. Doesn't really create much, nor effective in a defensive position. Gil popped up all over the place today and often ghosted away from his marker. TC is so static that he just plods around in the middle of the park. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 They were all bad including him. Has shown nothing to start next game but he will probably anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC is so static that he just plods around in the middle of the park. Mmmm, disagree to be honest. I thought he was alright today. He did a good job of getting the ball to Gil at almost every opportunity. Him, Gil and Hutton worked the right hand side particularly well in the first half. Cleverley was certainly far better than Delph and Sanchez today... which is presumably why he got subbed off first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleverley was certainly far better than Delph and Sanchez today... which is presumably why he got subbed off first. My real beef if that Cleverley was in advance of Delph, meaning we missed Fabien's drive and runs as he was playing in-line with Sanchez today. TC needs to do more than just lay the ball off to Gil. He needs to find space, have shots and play through balls to Weimann and Benteke if he's going to play in that position. Of course, his role is made more difficult with Sanchez having a mare and Benteke doing an impression of a giant statue. For me, Westwood is a better defensive midfielder and a more cultured attacking midfielder than Cleverley. Having said that, if he kept his place against Chelsea at the expense of Sanchez I could see that being justified. He needs to be more effective and that's his biggest issue. Sinclair Gil Delph Westwood Cleverley I can live with that for the next game if Sanchez can't get his shit together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Not suited to play as the furthest forward midfielder, didn't offer anywhere near enough for someone playing in that role but I'd more blame Lambert for playing him there. He worked hard and was showing for the ball more than in previous games but still offers very little and shouldn't be making the starting 11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WooJung Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I wouldn't wish any player an injury, but it does seem it's almost always good/important players who get injured. Rubbish players who keep being picked in spite of being rubbish (Cleverley, Agbonlahor, Weimann) are always fit, and even if they do pick up an injury it's always something that will keep them out for no more than 2 games.
