Basing it on every game I've seen him and Forest fans I know would've driven him to VP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every performance from last year how many has he played in a improved side from last season? He has started what two games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lansbury has been junk bar the Leeds goal. http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/03/15/aston-villa-fans-want-henri-lansbury-to-start-against-bolton/page/1/ Incredible how you have decided he has been junk when he hasn't played for about 2 - 3 months? :/ Like a few others, he essentially played when pretty much the whole team were shite.

Dr_Pangloss Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Hourihane has been really poor, I'd like to see Lansbury get an opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats a tricky one, because he does alot of unseen work, and scores the occasional worldy. As I describe him, a budget Lampard. The problem is weighing up whether in certain circumstances he is an unnecessary luxury or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been tough to drop Hourihane because of those goals, so that's a credit to him. But all this defensive work he does is routine for me, not something others can't do. Lansbury deserves a go. We're totally reliant on Grealish. If he fires, we've got a good chance of winning. If he doesn't, we're probably not scoring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just in the beginning he was in when it seemed like the whole agenda was sit back or as Bruce said "Be hard to beat" If he does come in, I hope it's in his natural position, and not as makeshift DM, winger or something ridiculous.

I decided he was junk before 2-3 months ago. Average player doesn't play for a while and people clamour for him. It's like groundhog day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) He's class and for some reason I feel he doesn't get the credit he deserves, he does more than just score. He contributes defensively and is a great link player for our midfield and he covers loads of ground every game, I'd guess he runs more than any other player in our team. Just wish he was starting with Ireland. @Hourihane Edited March 17, 2018 by Bunnski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think he deserves more game time - but that's just my view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumblerseven Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 When i saw few forest games i got the impression that hes annoying and hard to play against hes frustrating oposition.When villa playied against forest he proved that to me hes was really anoying. I really dont mind if he gets some games i would like to see him playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A'Villan Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Has averaged a goal every 5 games for 8 seasons in the Championship, or thereabouts. I'm guessing that better than a lot of strikers that have seen the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I thought he deserved a chance. Did nothing. Does nothing. Floats about pretending to look busy, gets near nobody, then might occasionally ping one out to the wing. Will not be seen for another 20 minutes.
