Woodytom Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I want to see results simple as. Had 5 years of players telling us how it's all about to change. Just get on with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely seems more of a team player than, dare I say it, the great Tekkers (waits for lightning bolt). Tekkers was only interested in Team Tekkers. I have no problem with that, but that is just how it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodytom Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Not about being miserable. Just about not coming on here praising someone whose cost 15m quid for saying a few words. We don't have to bum the arse of them you know? It is possible to be happy in life but want better from your football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it is. I wonder if for example, digging at players who've done nothing wrong, quite the opposite in fact, and for things that they are entirely blameless for, and in part which are just inaccurate anyway, is the key to happiness? If your (apparent) disgruntlement about the team or club were directed at those responsible, rather than a new signing who's just scored and played well and who seems keen on the club, then perhaps people would view your posts and therefore your opinion, differently. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also want them to be positive those results will come, because then there's a better chance of them coming. I don't really understand where you're coming from with this.

StefanAVFC Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I don't understand what Kodjia was supposed to do differently in this situation. Refuse the interview? Say that everyone in camp is actually miserable? Some people will literally never be happy in certain situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodytom Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Never said he was. It isn't a personal dig at kodjia, more the wishy washy media BS in general. I've lost count of how many times we are supposed to have turned a corner in the last 5 years. Start delivering. Simple as that. People always say teams need time to gel and it doesn't click straight away. That in a sense is true. But Watford didn't struggle last year and neither are huddersfield this year. They're just getting on with it. Its always villa that need time to gel and history shows us (well recent history) that despite words in the media from players, we never were going to gel.

I don't think he was just talking platitudes. His discussion of how he came into the game and looked out of place to the others, and how he felt a bit afraid of moving over here, were a little bit different to the normal stuff you get from many players. He sounds a nice guy, and not up himself like so many of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Played very well. But I really do not understand the wisdom in playing a 20 goal striker on the right. The reason he cost so much was because of his goals. He has to play through the middle with a proper strike partner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Crazy thought, but maybe we should try playing a clearly talented player in his best position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
