I reckon there is something else at play. Yeah it's difficult to say. I don't think DS liked much of the 2019 summer recruitment personally given it was close to costing him the job in the end. Likes of Jota long gone, Engels started off o.k but then got dropped and didn't then play for a year and Gulibert also hardly featured since lockdown and AEM was moved back above him in the pecking order. Trez is one who's been keep in favour but I think he'd have been moved on this summer but for his ACL. Cash on the whole did well last season although he still has his poor games, just feels to me like we'll move one of the CBs there if he gets injury.

Not to speak for villalad21 (because nobody can do his posts justice ), but while I wouldn't have put him ahead of Cash at the start of the season, after the performances so far, I'd probbaly give him a go, if for no reason other than giving Cash a kick up the arse.

Three poor performances in a row for me. Viable option sat there who played OK in the cup in his one appearance. Looks like Fred is off anyway so it doesn't matter.

thunderball Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Does seem strange. I would say no one has got off to a good start, so Cash is not on his own. But maybe there are specific attributes to Guilberts game that they didn’t like because the decision was made at the end of 19/20 to upgrade him after just one season. If Cash is now not good enough maybe it doesn’t reprieve Freddie, both may need to be moved on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash is a better passer that's it but he's so cowardly going forward it hinders us. He's the new Neil Taylor right now. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 (edited) I think that Leicester debacle was the beginning of the end for Freddie, sad to say. Edited August 30, 2021 by sheepyvillian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted August 30, 2021 Visiting Supporter Share Posted August 30, 2021 Watched him closely against Barrow. Made two awful passes which went to the opposition but other than that he was decent. However, he looked far from happy which is understandable when you know your manager doesn’t rate you. It could well be that he and the manager are having difficulties and if this is so, then he should go elsewhere but not before being replaced as Villa’s squad is already looking short in a few positions.

Our fit defenders are: Tuanzebe Hause Targett Young Cash One more defensive injury, and we're in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is more a stream of consciousness that you type out.

Exactly, we have to accept that our preseason has been gash, and that our players are able to get back to their best with the right training, rest, support etc they need.

I am happy with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
