For me, he'd need to work on his composure on the ball - he likes operating at a fast speed, whereas this role would require someone who can hold it up when necessary and calmly choose the right pass under pressure. That's not really his game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's really compromising as he often gets beat by balls over the top, in one on one situations and dives in way too often giving away pens, free kicks and 2 on 1 situations. That's on top of his offensive limitations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disagreeing but… maybe Unai can improve and educate him as he has done (and will continue to do) with others… Matty probably had the least time or opportunity to impress him. World Cup involvement and injuries and knocks. His assist for Watkins was quite impressive too… I mean, you’re kind of describing McGinn in a way too and Unai calmed him down, made him more composed and able to take more touches of the ball before releasing it, for example… what a turnaround in form. I expect further improvement in our players because of Unai and his coaching methods. Some quality additions will make us a lot stronger too and a really formidable and dangerous side. So much to look forward to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Tbh I don't see McGinn and Cash as similar at all. McGinn's problem IMO was that he was coasting and not serious about his physical conditioning. He lost quite a lot of weight and has adopted a more serious, professional attitude rather than being the class clown 'lad' everyone likes. For Cash, it's a different case for me. Konsa is a far closer equivalent, in that he has become better under pressure and a little more expansive with his passing. Everyone has ceilings but this is not a strength of Cash's, so it depends on how well he can train himself mentally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can be a blank canvas for Unai to create the kind of holding right back he wants. He has the right attitude and physicality, now he needs Emery to coach the tactical and positioning awareness into his game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just give them a death stare and flex his quads. And if that doesnt work just stamp on them . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a back 3 pretty much, but he is quick for a big man. The more I think about it he's pretty perfect for the role. I think cash will then be used when we need to open up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing was he stopped and spoke to about sixty people and took selfies, autographs etc...thing is after he took my phone he didn't take the photo so I had to call back to him to do a re-take. As mentioned before I really like Cash and think he will improve under Emery. I can also see a rotation between him and Konsa now and again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I enjoyed that, he seems a nice character and liked by his team mates and staff. BMH, gave me college campus vibes. And atmosphere there felt relaxed and calm.

villabromsgrove Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Love the "Cash Cam". He is a really nice ordinary guy and is in top physical shape for the job. Can't believe this is his fourth season with us already. This was a good insight into the "Villa family" that Unai is building. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 It’s easy to forget that there’s a person behind the footballer. Matty always seems to be a top bloke. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UE may decide to work on his game and mould him in to what he wants. With the varying/ optional style of Matty and Konsa....I don't see another right back coming in.
