He didn’t play especially well but those two free kicks you’re beating him withwere in the defensive third and stopped counter attacks that were shaping up. If he wasn't so sloppy in possession he wouldn't have to make those kind of challenges is what I was trying to say. We surely cannot credit a player for losing the ball then committing a professional foul to prevent a counter attack. Was lucky not to get booked for the first one because then he wouldn't have been able to make the second shortly after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 He has a use in that he has lots of energy and can pressure people about but in a team trying to dominate the ball he isn't very useful due to his lack of technique. In a weird way he would probably be more effective for a team fighting relegation from the top flight than a team chasing promotion to the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USA_Villa Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I will be surprised if you see him start another game. He doesn't fit in to this Villa team. Too slow, too many touches and not sharp enough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Keeps his profile a little relevant so hopefully we can shift his wage on this summer with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 He is apparently on 30k a week. We need to definitely have to get him off the books. Madness by Bruce and xia to offer him this money 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madness by Bruce and xia to offer him this money Where did you get that from. £30k is nuts. I actuly think Xia was more mental than Lerner. I think he thought he was placing bets at a casino. At least Lerner could afford the losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact our wage bill last season is on par with most of our time in the Premier League just shows how much of a shambles we were last year. Xia and Wyness did some serious damage. It’s shocking! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hornso Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Talk we tried to move him on in January but he wanted to stay and fight for his spot. He does seem like a determined player who'd want to fight it out, or on the other hand does he just know he'll never get this kinda of contract elsewhere?
