poitier Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 He showed good feet at times and worked back quite well, set up our best chance too. Needs to be in the danger areas more, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Dont think sherwood has utilised him well at all. I think Ayew needs a run up top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted October 20, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 20, 2015 To be fair to Sherwood, the one game I've seen Ayew play up front, against a League 2 team, was one of the worst performances I think i've ever seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Hes got the potential.. but at the moment hes only shown glimpses.I dont know what it is.. he hasnt done anything bad.. he just cant get himself into the game... should he play deeper? wider? upfront?

villan_007 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I think there's a player in there for sure.What gets me though is the look on his face, it's like his family are being held at gun point and he HAS to play football. Come on son, smile and get involved!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I wan't us to start with him up front rather than Gestede.Gestede makes us very one dimensional, Ayew adds more options as he's better with his feet and much more mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 needs a goal very soon, else he will always be considered a poor signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 To score goals he needs regular game timeIf Gabby is fit he will probably be dropped again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'd like to see him play alongside Grealish and Gil as a front 3, then bring on gestede in the last 20 to either replace or support him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Would probably go with Ayew and Traore either side of Gestede for Swansea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just meant I can understand why Sherwood would be reluctant to play him up front after that performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Deserves a run in the side based on him stepping up his level a bit and the others being so shite. He did OK against Chelsea in the first half and created our best chance. Still concerned that he's going to turn out to be a complete waste of money but we'll only know for sure when he's given a consistent run in the team.

WooJung Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Would probably go with Ayew and Traore either side of Gestede for Swansea.That would mean dropping Gil, Grealish or both. I'm not sure that would be wise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dn1982 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Against County he kept getting done offside but at least he was running! It could've been nerves, over excitement, not being on the same wavelength as your team mates or he could just be crap one things for sure you won't find out unless he plays there for a few games. Benteke used to get offside quite a bit and he turned out OK. Players like Gil and Grealish need a mobile forward. I can't remember Gestede ever being offside but he hardly runs the channels so....
