It’s very early days but jeez he’s certainly given us a spark when he’s come on, I really hope he continues. What a shot! I’m so glad I was wrong! He looks very good to me mate! I just had a feeling since we signed him that he would/could be a masterstroke in the grand scheme! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a kid in a new country….let’s get excited but let’s not turn that into pressure or ridicule if he has some poor games which will happen as he adapts to this league, level, country and environment. Cracking start! Very exciting! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinker Posted February 12, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 12, 2023 I would rather see him start than Bailey but I don't think Bailey would start against Arsenal , McGinn will. Duran from the bench if we need a goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwi1890 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Anybody catch what Martin Tyler said about us not knowing we could have 9 subs on the bench and had to request last minute to include him in the line up? Find that hard to believe given we had 2 keepers on the bench looks more like sky saving face to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 47 minutes ago, DJBOB said: He might have his pouty days but long legged players always get this criticism. Chukwumeka before him then Tammy before him then Kodja and even Mings has been accused of ambling. Their stride is so long that they can press without looking like they have to rev the motor like McGinn. Agree Thing as well is there's ambling around and then there's not being a one man press vs man City which is utterly pointless, even a two man won't work, you'll just needlessly run yourself in to the ground while they work 5 yard triangles around you I'd be more interested in him having the intelligence to know when it's on and when it's not 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many down days ahead of him but Duran is a talent. i thought this after the Leicester game. Switched off at half time this game as was so angry about the penalty so left my kid have the tv. Glad he impressed again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on our social media posts so don't see why it would be Sky who are saving face rather than us. He looked very good anyway, hopefully more to come in the near future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Made In Aston Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Early days, but I like the look of him. If like to see Duran get a decent minutes between now and the end of the season to get him used to the league and style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderball Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Looks like an old-fashioned handful. I think he is going to be a popular player amongst the fans, hardly seen him yet he looks like trouble for defenders 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
