Mantis Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I genuinely wish nothing but excruciating injury on Ben Mee. What a piece of shit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Made In Aston Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) With Wesley not likely to be back until around Christmas, we can pretty much write him off this season. It will take him quite a while to get up to speed, which will take even longer if he is second choice behind Watkins. Possibly might play a part during the final 10 games but can't see him doing much before that.

Chindie Posted September 18, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2020 How his leg hasn't broken there is miraculous. Probably would have been better if it had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djemba_Villan Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Not nice to think about but genuinely curious. Does anyone know how insurance works in professional football? We will have had some sort of cover for Wes, but does that just cover career ending? i.e. if he had to retire due to it, the insurance would pay his remaining contract. Is there any possibility that insurance will have covered some of his wages whilst out and therefore be the reason we have funds to chase another forward? I also am genuinely gutted. I hope he is mentally strong. It must be tough for him watching Luiz flourish, with them both having joined at the same time, Luiz getting another call-up for Brazil when they were both called up before his injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I'd love to put Ben Mee in a heel hook. He'd experience some of what he did to Wesley. Grade A rocket polisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to sign another striker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I personally think he is finished at this club. Keinan will keep improving and Watkins will make the position his. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame, but never really showed the quality required for the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of a Danish insult, translates into something along the lines of “May your bum itch and your arms be too short to scratch”. That’s for you Ben Mee... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 From the Mail: Target return date: January 2021. Wesley returned from Brazil last week to continue rehabilitation back at Bodymoor Heath. What's Dean Smith said: "He is back now with us but is not back training in any shape or form. The swelling has gone down on his knee now but it was quite a bad injury he suffered. "We believed it was going to be a 12-month injury and nothing has told us otherwise yet. He is getting full range into it and hopefully he will be back as soon as possible." https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/aston-villa-team-news-sheffield-18896713 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a reasonable Championship player and I think we are securing our asset in readiness to sell. But next summer we will be signing £50m+ players and there is no way he is suddenly going make up that deficit in ability to become a player we would offer playing time to. Wesley may be finished though injury, but if he recovers I think there is a player in there that’s worth while. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa seem to be very private with news so maybe Wesley isnt as far away as we think, pretty sure I saw a video during lockdown of him walking?

I imagine Traore is ahead of Davis already, still leaves us weak on the flank thou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
