Davkaus Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Just like Ben Mee, I think that ought to be a red card and a length ban for dangerous play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAR is the biggest pile of BS introduced any sport ever. Or the PL use of the technology is anyway. Laughable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Van Dijk's injury has reminded me of Wesley and that word removed Ben Mee again. I know I should be better than this but I'm not - I wouldn't mind if Mee got David Busst'd. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Think him and Heaton will be back training soon. Could be a vital boost in our title run in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of stupid decisions were made before Var so if say even 50% of the obvious errors are cleared up I can handle that. What I can’t handle is Var overturning decisions that were correct like the Mane offside. Wtf is all that about? Keeping on topic it will be good to see Wesley back to add another dimension for certain games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be coming back without the pressure of being a big money signing too and in to a better team on a high. He showed promise and now the pressure is off he will be a brilliant addition to the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree with this, the pressure of coming back into a team pushing for there first Premier League title will be immense just depends how he handles it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TrentVilla Posted October 18, 2020 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2020 Can’t wait to have him back personally, he is a better or was a better player than many have him credit for and I hope he returns the same player. We were a poorer side once he was injured and it will be great to have him as a different option in the squad. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a striker who likes to link with other players. Perhaps Ollie on the right, Wes as a deep striker, Jack on the left could be an option, or even 2 up front with Wes deeper. That will bring out the best in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He struggled a lot. 12 games without a goal and 4 straight games without a shot is abysmal really. He showed glimpses and as a back up striker, he can now hopefully develop and progress. But I'd be amazed if he ever put watkins place under threat. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, he’s played a lot with another striker next to him when at Brugge. Wouldn’t mind seeing it against teams who play 5/3 at the back this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 It's good to hear from Wes and to see him bonding with the new players. I really have a feeling that he's going to come back and be an absolute menace when his chance arrives. He's got the physique to be a beast in the pitch and he's clearly got talent, it was just a big move for him and his young family to bring the family to Birmingham. He will be well settled by the time he hits the back of the net again and I reckon he will be the real deal once he starts scoring again. By the way, that Van Dijk thing had nothing to do with the challenge. His legs were still twisted from the run-around Jack and the boys gave him two weeks ago.

KenjiOgiwara Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Swear people have forgotten how absolutely awful his general play was. Expecting him to come back from a career killer of an injury and expect him to be better than he was, or be any where near Ollie is so laughable I don't know where to start. But it's classic VT. The longer absence, then better footballer you are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His general play was decent, often good. My concern was that for such a strong man, he’d go down far too easily and sulk at not being given a free kick, plus the more obvious issue of not only not scoring enough goals, but not getting into position to score those goals often enough. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
