He gave a good overview of Sanson as a player. He was sound Basically good player, not as good as they thought he could have been, changed his game over the last couple of years, number 8 work horse with a good engine, more mcginn than Barkley, dont judge him on stats cos that's not his game, price is good 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until he got his serious injury that is. Yeah maybe, but I remember watching him for Liverpool and he wasn’t that beast he was for us. Defenders couldn’t handle him for us, it didn’t matter what their defence did he bullied them, he stretched them, he turned them inside out and he was never that at Liverpool. So maybe while his goal ratio was good at 9 goals in 29 games for the Plop he wasn’t the Villa Benteke and not the player Liverpool thought they brought.

Our longest passing maneuver to end in a goal is 12 passes and that was by our under 23s against liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we are evolving from that particularly this season, Villa are taking the game to teams much more. The reason we do not have long passing moments is because we are so direct.

That’s because we played to his strengths and often just looked to him to pull something miraculous out of the bag. I think we all unanimously agreed on here that Liverpool was the wrong move for him, the football they played then (and now) wouldn’t/doesn’t suit him. He needs to be the focal point of the team, why he hasn’t been able to rediscover himself at Palace is the big mystery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope not, we need some strength to the squad. on the OM forum they are saying a transfer fee isnt yet agreed, obviously still in negotiation??, dunno. Seems strange we let Hourihane go before having Sanson effectively wrapped up, personally i would have said "Conor, you can do all the detail/contracts etc with Swansea, but you will only sign when we know Sanson is over the line".
