Popular Post Tom13 Posted August 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2019 Lansbury really is a quality player. It's a shame he struggles with fitness as he's really good to watch. So clever with the ball. We have six good central midfielders! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could pass to a central midfielder who runs through 4 players from the half way line, stops, does a little flick/turn, runs into the box and megs the keeper. Assist for the RB who passed him the ball, when in reality the player made the goal himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bizarre post. He's obviously jealous or Henri, or he's wronged him in some way. Really bizarre post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s how Mehmet Ozil gets most his assists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really bizarre post. both Hourihane and Grealish’s goals were hit first time, the very definition of “just putting the ball in the net”. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8pints Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Lansbury detected two team mates cerebrally, it's no mystery that his fitness gives a clue to his ability and if he can avoid injury, he'll murder the opposition (not literary, I mean literally). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 The Palace "goal" was a really good finish. So frustrating as that would've been a massive boost to him after a very forgettable Villa career. Guess people are still surprised he's still here and actually making the bench but maybe his cameo showed he can be impact sub and get a goal or two. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Hopefully he can turn around his Villa career, so many of our players have been written off in the past (Hogan, Gardner, Bacuna, McCormack, Tshibola and so on), and I always find myself rooting for them to turn things around and prove everyone wrong, but none of them ever seem to do so. Maybe Lansbury can become the one that comes from nowhere proves everyone wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 The bloke has never been able to hold down a place here (contributed by injuries), he comes on and scores a perfectly good goal and has it ruled out by a fraud of a referee. Some folk just never get the breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Was gutted for him having his goal ruled out. He’s surprising a few each match he plays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillanousOne Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 i would actually like to see him start with Nakamba, pack out our midfield a bit to over some actual steel to the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Five Ken McNaughts Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 This is the most excited I have been about Lansbury since pretty much the day we signed him. Thought he was different class for Forest (including against us). Now seems to be finally getting his mojo back. Not put a foot wrong since the start of pre-season. Great to see.
