Top ten absurd posts in VT history. Please don't demean our legends, we don't have much to cling on to at the moment, so our heroes must be cherished! On topic: Jedinak, exactly what we needed at exactly the right time. Before you get too excited, read my considered wording carefully. Further, I assume you lived through the McGrath period. I did too, witnessed his performances first hand, so give me some respect before you try and embarrass me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted November 27, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted November 27, 2016 Did he miss a single header today? I cannot recall in the 31 years I have been attending pretty much every Villa Park game plus lord knows how many aways any player who has seemed so dominant in the air. Literally everything which came his was was battered away with contempt. I also can't recall any player in the same history who has changed my opinion so radically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaglint Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Have to agree with you Woody Tom a clear MOTM for me. Couldn't stop pointing it out all second half just kept moping up everything which was in 20 yards of him. Really too performance. Does anyone have a link to any stats for the game? Would love to see how many headers he one in that game and also how many times Jack got fouled! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is possible to be excellent in a team 11th in the championship. Nowhere have I indicated otherwise. Having an excellent game, is a long way from being an unbelievable talent which is where I have disagreed with people regarding players yesterday. Incidently, some posters who claimed players were an unbelievable talent have come back to me agreeing that it was perhaps a bit OTT to suggest such things.

But it's incredibly boring for the rest of us. IMO. It brings the atmosphere down. Regardless, congratulations. I'm not sure it was necessary myself, everyone else understood. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodytom Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Basically he's saying that my opinion of jedinak being excellent is void because I disagreed that grealish and kodjia were 'unbelievable talents'. All a bit daft and pointless tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
