villa4europe Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 He's cover for mings and mings is still injured From a Villa perspective nothing has changed so I don't see why we'd want to do anything Agree that for what he is we won't get better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll need to find one good enough for the level we are at, whilst that player also realises they are likely to be 4th choice.

He's leagues better than any other LCB cover we can get in Jan. So he stays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomC Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I wonder whether Barcelona has a recall option in January. It's pretty common, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need 4 CBs, mings injury knocks us down to 3 so we need lenglet, next season mings is back so we don't That's why we loaned him, he's covering mings injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we release Lenglet, sell Chambers and reinstate Hause to become our secret LCB cover secret weapon?! No? Oh well, poor guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd he didn't play in the EC - someone def said he was injured Emery didn't mention him today, so with Pau out tomorrow, you'd expect him to feature unless he's off.

VillaAlex Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 I did see him in the pre game training videos so I think he's available to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 Let's hope he stays fit. With Pau out, the last thing we need is a Leng let off for Clement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
