BleedClaretAndBlue Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 The way he lead the line against Chelsea (and Barrow) was very impressive. I wouldnt be against giving him a start in the PL soon, he clearly knows how to be a handful whatever the opposition. Gets in great positions and knows how to finish. Exciting talent, and another Villa fan. We’re in such a good era for the club again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I still feel a season on Loan or at least half season would be huge for him. Especially when he's full of confidence like now. I'd love to see him at a Championship club chasing the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 If you're banging in 2s and 3s every runout no matter the level you're going to be really pushing for a start eventually. Even if there are two 30m guys ahead of you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's flying right now and I think we should be channeling that into the first team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep him and try and win the JPT for me, he's already 3rd choice and getting some minutes with us, wait and see who we get in the FA Cup too But everything would depend on who comes in for him, no guarantee that a playoff chasing club would The quality of those finishes though... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 100 percent keep him here within the 1st team squad. Maybe Ings has taken him under his wing. Give him chances to show the world what he is capable of. Doing this isnt only for Cam. It is for every youth player in our system who are seeing him rip it up. This creates that pathway in their eyes. Seeing the 1st team manager give you a standing ovation as you come off the pitch. That is worth so so much . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 No loan for me, lad is basically a first team squad member already, on the merits. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post samjp26 Posted October 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2021 Nice comment from the Burton manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink: “The boy that scores, Archer, is a quality player - he’s with the first team, he’s a Premier League player and you see the difference.” Wasn’t too bad on his day either to be fair. When ex-pros like that see it, you know it’s real, because these are guys who have been in and around the best of the best. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he has shown himself as having potential in the games he has played, but what would be best for his actual improvement/development? By that i mean, would he develop better at the age of 20, playing a few games from the subs bench for Villa over the next 12 months, or going to the Champ and playing every game to hone his skills like dare i say, Tammy Abraham did with us, and dont forget Tammy was what, 21/22 when he was with us in the Champ? I dunno, pros and cons to each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I think the emergence of Archer probably spells the end of Davis at the club now. We also have Caleb coming through as well. Archer has been an absolute revelation this season and deserves his place in the first team squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) I've mentioned multiple times in the past that, from my experience, alot of the time, the overhyoed players tend to fizzle out into normalcy as they get older. The proper machines tend to come out of nowhere ( Or just seem " Meh " to begin with ( I.E Ramsey IMO ), with hard graft and focus. Like a Vardy for example. This kid looks bloody lethal.

The Fun Factory Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Both Kane and Lineker were late developers. Francis Jeffers and many others shows sometimes hype only gets you so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I wouldn't say that either Ramsey or Archer are late developers, Ramsey made his debut for us at age seventeen, had a succesful loan spell with MK Dons, has been a regular for the England youth sides, and became a full squad memeber for us last season at age 19, he wasn't as good to begin with for the first team as he is now but that's to be expected and is the same for most young players coming through. Archer has had a significant rise in stature this season, but he's still only nineteen so can't really be called a late developer, and whilst I don't think many if anyone expected him to have the impact he's had this season it's not as if he hadn't showed any promise before, he made his debut for us at age seventeen, played very well, he's scored goals against first team opposition before this season in the EFL Trophy, and contray to what some say, injuries aside did well last season on loan with Solihull Moors. Ramsey and Archer becoming first team members of a Premier League team at the age of nineteen makes them pretty much the opposite of late developers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
