With Olsen, Augustinsson, Bednarek and Calum, we had the defensive pace of stone gargoyles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBOB Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Awful. Only luck that didn’t punish one of his wayward passes earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Arsenal fans said he was crap before we signed him. I'm not surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May-Z Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 He was actually good when he first came though. Like, should have been starting. Every single game he plays now, he passes a ball to the opposition striker when they press. He's signed his exit card imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost every performance is a horror show. He's so off the pace at this level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Following the usual Villa career trajectory of looking decent, then average, then poor. What do we do at Bodymoor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do we do at Bodymoor. Most of the players fans now want out had a period when they looked good. The only players who've been at Villa for a longer period of time and not got worse are Martinez and maybe Douglas Luiz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started well but just a complete bench warmer now who probably wants more time and Emery likely has eyes for future targets so makes sense if the right offer comes in seeing as we are refreshing the squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allani Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Wouldn't be surprised to see him move on - when we signed him he offered cover across a number of positions for pretty minimal outlay. We now look stronger in almost all of those positions - especially with the emergence of Forever Young and his bid to become the best right back in the country. Done a good job - and scored an absolute cracker of a goal too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 'Bit average' is generous. He's poor and has been for ages. Not PL standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bednarek going is logical, but without Chambers we literally have zero cover without Chambers. I don't think Carlos will be ready before March, and will really need a full pre-season before he can be expected to be sharp enough to play regularly.

I think he was only ever average (which isn't a bad thing) - basically he went from emergency cover at Arsenal to emergency cover for us (except he actually put in a handful of pretty solid performances too, which was a bonus). Most likely be cover for one of teams in the battle at the bottom - will either help keep them up or be a pretty inexpensive option if they do drop down to stay and help they try to win back promotion next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly expect to see a tweet, the same, about Dendoncker this week or in the summer. It looks like players like Chambers and Dendoncker are the kind of players we are willing to listen to offers for. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought that he played better than I expected when he came in and partnered Luiz before Kamara was fully fit. A huge upgrade on Nakamba. Still good cover for the rest of this season but will probably be on the move in the summer. Edited January 25, 2023 by allani 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 His heads gone, he's looked really poor this season There was a spell towards the end of last season where he looked great... And then Gerrard dropped him, never recovered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
