villarule123 Posted November 20, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2021 When you're getting replaced by a 36 year old when you need a goal, and said 36 year old creates the goal, you know something's wrong. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like he was going to cry when he was pulled off. If he was pissed he got pulled he can only be pissed at himself... only good play I can recall all game was the one touch to send Ings in. Bailey should take that spot to start next week for sure. The headache is the strikers. Ings can't play out wide, and after that goal I'd be reluctant to drop Ollie. I'd be tempted to go for Watkins in the middle, with Bailey on the right and Young on the left, if he's got the legs for it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Has air of Barkley post January currently. Lots of expectation when he starts, not much happens and then he storms off disappointed when subbed around the hour and then endless questions as to which is his best position. One certainty so far, we massively overpaid for him. Don't think I'd be starting him or Ings next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the new staff can get him firing. Right now he is worse value for the money than Wesley. Subs can always change a game. Come on. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By that measure, Ross Barkley cared as well, but it looks incredibly unprofessional, disrespectful, and I hope Gerrard tears strips off him for it.

He shook Gerrard’s hand on the way off. Who is it disrespectful to? So boring when people make mountains out of nothing. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how fans expect players to react when getting subbed. Who is it disrespectful to? He's mad at himself. He's a fiery player under a lot of pressure. I guess you want him to bottle all that up and Kung Fu kick a fan next time he's on the pitch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. What does it matter if it “looks childish”. Who are we trying to impress? Having a player that cares about his own performance that much is a GOOD thing, something people often complain about. Let’s see if Gerrard cares. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Honestly the tantrum is a side issue and one I wouldn't focus on too much, the real problem is the performance was, once again, just not good enough and we looked improved when Young came on. It's a fresh start under a new manager, IMO. I'm not writing him off, and for such an expensive signing, I certainly hope he comes good, but I wouldn't start him again next week after that game.

abdomlahor Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 can't say i'm impressed based on his performances so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Such a massive let down currently. It's not like he even has the excuse of coming from a different league, the bloke has played Prem and Championship football over the past few years. He needs to be far better for £40m, nowhere near good enough. Get him in the gym ffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Stroppy s*** ain't he? I'll give him some time but he's not endearing himself much, still looks slow and lightweight to me at the moment. If anyone can get him playing well it'll be Gerrard but at the moment Buendia seems a luxury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I'll say as well, him throwing a strop on the bench doesn't bother me. It never bothered me with Barkley. He's throwing a fit because I'd guess he very well knows he was shit again and thinks he can do much better which is a good sign to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
