Pau for his lack of physicality , Diaby for his lack of defensive ability, YOuri for his supposed lack of athelticism. The thing is if these players were stronger, better defensively and more athletic they would have cost £80 mill each. This is how we find value. Because we have a coach who can work out a system to fit players into it , we can continue to grow. I think Unai’s coaching team are also excellent at coaching flaws out of players (even mid / late career). His perception of innate talents vs coachable skills is different from a lot of managers. In Pau’s case though I think it is as you say, just the case that the defensive shape and balance of the entire side pretty much mitigates any issues Pau has with pace / athleticism, and then his natural talents are perfectly suited to how we want to attack. Some player. One of the most watchable players we’ve had at Villa Park. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBOB Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Lots of passes to choose from but the one at :33 is my pick of the bunch. Pressure incoming and first time switch to Bailey. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I feel like all YT compilations of this guy should be accompanied by classical music. He’s a class act. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All his passes were left footed and then he plays one with his right into McGinn who then turns and puts Rice on his arse. Clever footballer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa87 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Unbelievable player. Key reason we are flying. Can’t think of any other cbs with his passing ability in world football to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Wonderful player. As much as it pains me to say, I don't think Mings will get back into the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you might be right. The only way he does is if Pau or Mings shift to left back. I'm not convinced that is a better solution than dropping Mings though.

Which is fine, if he recovers well he'll be more than adequate backup and a valuable player to bring on to see out games in the final stage where we're under pressure, especially against physical teams. There is still a role for Mings in this squad, even if not as a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
