Villarocker Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 He will replace Whelan in midfield as soon as Samba (or Terry) is back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His passing was still awful, but that's a bit more acceptable from a CB than when he's further upfield. Didn't he play cb last season a few times?

avfc456 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Anyone heard a rumour online about Jedinak not being happy after Saturday with Bruce? Probably twitter rubbish but seemed odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really doubt that, on this seasons form Whelan is probably our most important player (after Terry). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 I think he is a liability in defence. It's so much more than just winning headers. I thought our defence looked lost a couple of time in the last game, and although I can't specifically point out that he was at fault, he just gave me a feeling of uncertainty. I'm not confident when he's about to pass the ball, especially not when he is the last man, and I'm not sure if he reads the game like a cb, covering for the other cb, making interceptions at the right moments etc. I love him as an anchor in a three man midfield, and when he comes on to close the game, and I love his attitude and professionalism, but I don't rate him as a cb.

Zatman Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Possibly the worst centre back performance I have seen at Villa Park in years BUT he is not a defender and not his fault he is asked to play there when other defenders available 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
