I just don't see the swings and roundabouts of it all, stick with those 3 and chase the best wide man / men that we can which we need to do anyway Watkins is out the goals come from the team not just from archer / duran I disagree and so does Emery, we need another striker whatever happens to Duran, whether he stays in the squad or goes out on loan.

SecretVillaScout Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Seems to always have some kinda involvement in the games he subbed on. Cant wait to see him play for Villa in europe next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 I’d like a game to be comfortable at some stage and Duran to get a good 25/30 min run out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the confidence but let's be cautious too, they're a good side. We are liable to get tired at some point too, especially the likes of Ollie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount Newcastle got away without being booked for and then he got booked for something virtually irrelevant and not at all dangerous. Very soft. I liked him taking it to the corner. Showed an old head is on those young shoulders and assume it was what Emery asked him to do. With the game won, it didn't matter what he did. But there will be times he needs to come on and do that for real, and getting some practice in was a cherry on the cake moment for that game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinebro Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I'll be honest. I don't see a lot of potential in him from watching him play. But it's going to be hard to find a quality striker willing to play second fiddle to Watkins. Regardless I trust Unai. If he rates him then I will trust him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
