vivaashleyyoung Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Just wanted to gage peoples thoughts on him. I think we can all see Davies is a very poor footballer so what are your thoughts on his partner. Im starting this thread on the back of one of the posts that was directed at me in the Cuellar + Davies thread by 'Carewseyebrowdesigner' 'You evident lack of football knowledge is laughable. Cuellar is a good player. Infact, everyone with a **** half a brain knows he is a good player.' So, what do you think? Can a player who cant kick a ball properly be good for us this season?

Santa_Rosa Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Don't know yet, he's still adjusting to the Prem I think. He certainly kicked plenty of balls properly for Rangers in the Uefa Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheldonVilla Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Have not seen anything from him to date to suggest he's of the quality we require. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly kicked plenty of balls properly for Rangers in the Uefa Cup. Fair comment. Im just basing my opinion and vote on what ive seen of him in a villa shirt. And he has been beyond poor.

mtb_wm Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 He's been a beast in pre-season. Probably doesn't help being paired with Davies who hasn't impressed me for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Davies is poor, Cuellar for me is a good player, so yes, I'm also glad fellow Villans can see this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I think both Davies and Cuellar are capable center halfs just not together. Need someone with experience and someone who is commanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted August 16, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted August 16, 2009 Needs to settle into a partnership, which isn't going to happen with Davies as things stand right now. But yeah, he's a good player imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1974Centenary Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Dont blame the defense,you need a midfield to slow down the attacks and give the defenders a chance.At the end of the day if your team spends more time having to defend you concede more goals and look useless.

thejoker Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 From what I've seen so far - he's so far from being good enough it's quite frightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vivaashleyyoung Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 Can people please vote based on the performances in a villa shirt. Forget Rangers, Thats scottish football. For me, he is utter rubbish, and i mean that. Over the years ive seen some good centre halves play for villa, Mcgrath, Mellberg, Laursen, Southgate to name but a few. But to see Davies and Cuellar start on the opening day of the season.....Scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Firstly the thread says 'Is Cuellar a good player' Then the poll question is 'Is Cuellar good enough' Your asking two different things. Thats like me saying, yeah, Danny Murphy is a good player, but is he good enough for us? No. Sort it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 its not cuellar im overly-concerned about, its davies tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I think we can all see Davies is a very poor footballer I dont think we can "all see Davies is a poor footballer" at all I think he will be a quality player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 For me, he is utter rubbish, and i mean that. I dont think he played all that well yesterday, but against Porto and Juventus he was immense, really top drawer, so I know there is a player in there. its not jsut me either, I think most people who saw those those games felt the same way I would suggest that any defender would struggle with a midfield of Petrov and Delph in front of them, and to blame the defence for yesterday is, imho, just wrong. What was different from the Juventus and Porto to yesterday? Different midfield perhaps? I might like to suggest that NRC and Sidwell offer a far better midfield pairing than Petrov and Deplh - proper bite, proper fight, proper shield for the defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
