Keyblade Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 His exclusion from the team probably has to do with us not having space on the bench for 2 RB's. Pretty sure Deano has had to explain a similar situation last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Villan4Life Posted September 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2020 (edited) Excellent attitude Guillbert has, a damn good player too! He just want's to do well at Villa and i feel he really loves the club. Matty Cash can also play in variety positions like CM and also at RM/RW. Would be really good see Fred at RB and Cash in front of him as both can whip a ball in!! Guillbert is one of our much better pick up's this last 10+ years too for price we paid for him.

Maybe even try see how they get on... this:- Cash, Dougie and McGinn in CM roles with Fred at RB and see how that goes!.. as Matty is a very good CM too he only got moved RB last season but excelled before in Central midfield & Right midfielder!! might work very well those 3. 3 very ball playing central midfielder's Finally, we now have decent options.

I get it but I'd rather Fred, Elmo and Hause on the bench covering RB, CB and LB than Elmo, Hause and Taylor covering the same positions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's right footed which doesn't put him at a disadvantage against a lot of attackers who prefer to cut inside and considering Taylor never crosses the ball that can't get any worse even if he's rubbish crossing with his left foot. As a minimum he gets forward quickly so will provide an option in attack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could get him with an option to buy it would sway me as he's undoubtedly talented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trickster Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Whether he ends up staying or going, I personally hope he stays, it's very refreshing to see a player openly wanting to stay rather than the swathes of players we've had that couldn't wait to leave. For me it tells two things, 1) we have a player who is committed and likes being at Villa and 2) there's a good atmosphere and general togetherness at the club at the moment that allows players to want to stay. Fred has also been open in criticising his own performances when he has had a poor game etc. He's a guy I genuinely want to see do well here.

the_eristic Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Lots of positive involvement last night, put in a great low cross before our first that should've led to a goal, drew one of their defenders away from KD then laid it off to him to assist our first, put Ollie through with a fantastic ball over the top that also should've been a goal 2nd half. I think we're gonna see him step it up if given the chance, he was one of our best defensively last year and actually one of our better crossers in terms of accuracy, he just needs to put in more of them. Having him and Cash battling it out and able to drop right in for each other would be ideal, as even with Elmo's positives, he's only going to be able to keep going for so much longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Lot's of sentimentality going around here because you like the guy. Fact is Elmo and Cash are both comfortably better than him. This guy can't cross and defensively he was all over the place last season. Getting some money out of him and off the wage bill would just help a lot when trying to sign some more players. Guilbert isn't good enough for where we want to get to. Simple as that. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
