Vive_La_Villa Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 So do you think Amavi will complete the new look back 4 when fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Elphick and Chester will have their work cut out for them with De Laet and Amavi bombing forward any chance they can get. I can see us getting caught on counters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see us getting caught on counters. Might sound crazee but I'd go with Aly for now, he's been super solid. I think Amavi is useful off the bench, with the versatility to play anywhere up the left flank. Eventually though incorporating Amavi in to the side, provides he deserves it. He looked way off the pace defensively against Luton (that back four though ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amavi going forward is an exciting prospect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Thomas Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) Wouldn't disagree - he needs to earn his place back, but I do see Amavi as the number 1. Amavi and De Laet together will give us a lot more of an attacking threat with a lot more pace on both flanks - Edited August 23, 2016 by Gary Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Them two bombing down the wings, Mile dropping back to support Elphick and Chester. Ross and Ayew spinning off Ronaldo to score the goals we need. Sounds quite good to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taktical Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 We will come across weaker teams who will probably sit back and defend at Villa Park. In those cases we may need to go for a more attacking line-up to win 3 points in the push for promotion. It's a risk but we won't get out of the Championship with a load of 0-0 draws.

Gary Thomas Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) Can also see us bringing on Cissokho when we are up in a game and just want to see it out. Edited August 23, 2016 by Gary Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked way off the pace defensively against Luton (that back four though ) 100% this. Whether it is the difference in quality in the two divisions or something entirely different, Aly has been very good in those first 4 games. It is certainly his place to lose and that is the way it should be. Amavi was never the finished article defending last season and we shouldn't lose sight of this. The same mistake was made with Lowton who looked good going forward but got found out defending. At this moment in time, my faith and trust is in Aly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Given the lack of wide players in the squad and seeming reluctance to actually sign any...I wonder if RDM has left midfield in mind for Jordan when he's fully fit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flynnchin84 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Not sure about why its named 'Welcome to Liverpool' because he's not going there, but a nice little clip of what he has to offer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 didnt realise he had so many assists last season. I thought he got injured after 2-3 games? Cant wait to see him in full flight again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Hope he gets back to his pre-injury best, if that happens and the glimmers we seen last season materialise, he is by far the best attacking full-back in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
