Box to box who likes to arrive late in the box. Get Tayls to mentor him: teach him the history of the club, what it means to wear the shirt: get the man busting a gut for us.

TRO Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 I don't really know what's been wrong with him. you used to be able to gauge the time out if you knew what an injury was.....I've completely lost track now. It seems to me a broken leg would have been quicker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted September 10, 2021 Moderator Share Posted September 10, 2021 Given he made his playing return 11 days ago, you'd assume he's available from an injury point of view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyp Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Playing devil’s advocate, he just might not be very good. That encompasses ability, fitness, conditioning etc. Who knows. The same question has been bandied around at united with van de beek, although no injury, they might not like what they are seeing day to day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

January transfers are often a bit random and not planned for. Like Samatta the year before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same question has been bandied around at united with van de beek, although no injury, they might not like what they are seeing day to day. How is that playing devil's advocate? You're not offering a balanced view that tries to draw a line down the middle of two extreme sets of views, more creating a new line of even more extreme 'fake news' style propaganda about him, which this thread really needs (cough) as if there isn't enough conspiracy theories already. Here are quotes from Dean today on Sanson: “He’s not ready to start Premier League games yet as he’s only played 45 minutes against Wycombe in the EFL Trophy, but it was great to see him get that 45 minutes and he’s been training with us every day for the last two or three weeks,” Smith added. “We’re trying to arrange other games for him to play. He’s certainly available now to get minutes on the pitch if needed, but not to start. He hasn’t had that match exposure we would’ve liked yet.” Note if Dean doesn't like or rate a player then like with Engels and Guilbert he rarely says a single word about them. Sanson got given the No8 shirt for a good reason and his form and ability before he signed for us shows he is highly rated, will that translate to the Prem? Who knows. A really sh*tty and unlucky injury isn't a reason for people to take some perverse pleasure in slagging him off and writing off his Villa career. This forum has gone weird, a bad start due to ridiculous injuries and no preseason results in cries that Dean has reached a ceiling and will be gone before the season is done and thunderous doom, which will get apocalyptic if we lose to Chelsea. No matches for a few weeks and we get 'Mings should be sold' Edited September 10, 2021 by VillanousOne 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They planned to sign Sanson in the summer, but the opportunity arose to get him cheap as his club decided to cash in which resulted in his manager almost quitting over the sale.

briny_ear Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 We won’t know how good he is until we see him play a few matches. We have seen precious little of him so far and all this argumentative to-ing and fro-ing is done in a vacuum until we have some actual evidence. I think Villa fans have a tendency to be naturally pessimistic about these cases, based on a number of past examples of players who flopped after barely playing a game. Let’s hope it’s different this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
