He played one game before his injury.

He played in pre season and played two games before his injury

I saw him at Sevilla as well and never filled me with confidence

Laursen got injured early on but always looked assured

Are we all forgetting he was in defence when we beat City and Arsenal? 

He played well, but then the whole team was playing in a state of transcendent bliss. And he had Torres and Konsa flanking him.

I hope he's not written off entirely. There's still a lot of games to be played, including in Europe. He'll have opportunities to showcase what he's capable of in a Villa shirt.

I thought his passing was pretty good really and he was finding Watkins between the lines really well. 
 
But his defending is unaffecting at best. Strangely a more technical defender than imposing himself for as big as he is. 

He's always been a ball playing defender with good recovery pace... which I fear has left him post injury. He's not terribly tall and has never been strong in the air nor inclined to go to ground, the defensive side of his game used to be more like Ezri's, cut off the angle, get between the player and the ball, shepherd them away or get in a block. I think opponents are just able to get away from him too easily now.

In his defence he is our 4th choice centre back playing next to our 5th choice

He is poor but he is playing because of circumstances

Exactly this he’s not our first choice CB.

When Konsa was at RB he was first choice alongside Pau

Think we’re going to be really glad we couldn’t secure a move for chambers.

Welp - 

Time to relive the Chambers nightmare.

How the f*ck are all these injuries possible? What are they doing to get them? Surely this isn't just bad luck? 

 

I don't rate Carlos at all but we literally have no one to play there. Chambers is an even bigger car crash than Carlos and Kamara is out, Konsa is out, Mings is out, Torres is back on the bench but Emery won't play him. 

 

Just close down the Champions League thread, it ain't happening.
