kayarcee Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 You must of only been born yesterday if you think some managers dont have favourites. then why did Houllier not play him last season when Young and Cuellar was out Because Houllier was building. There was no future in playing a 31 yr old average RB, whereas playing Walker, (and trying to sign him) or Lichaj was something Villa could benefit from in future seasons.. So then where's the future in playing a 32 year old average RB over a 25 year old RB who showed great glimpses of potential earlier in his career under his current gaffer? To quote you from another thread, McLeish can obviously see things in Hutton that Redknapp didn't know about, and surely that's got to be down to McLeish's ability as a coach.

There isnt a future in playing Beye over Hutton...But the question must be asked; Why did we spend 4m and 30-40k per week on another RB who isnt much better than what we already have? Especially when we have the club saying that we have to be careful with money? Now we have him, I agree that at 25 years old and on 4 year contract that he should play ahead of Beye 32 yrs old last year of his contract...I just dont understand the logic in signing such player in the 1st place..

TheSufferingVilla Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I can no longer hold it back... ALAN HUTTON IS A **** AWFUL DEFENDER! Discuss: I'd rather have Heskey at right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czechlad Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I hope Eric Lichaj can get a run at RB. He looked good at Leeds and looked good in all but one of his games in a Villa shirt. That game was also against City so I think he deserves a shout considering how poor Hutton has been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then I think AM would play Cuellar rather than Lichaj? Hutton is a dodgy defender that isn't even good going forward. A waste of 4m! However he is here and playing so we are stuck with him for the foreseeable so it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted November 27, 2011 Moderator Share Posted November 27, 2011 Seems to have gone under the radar due to our general shiteness and other events but I thought his tackle today that saw him booked was absolutely horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How he has not been red carded is beyond me? Poor quality player and a waste of 4m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houlston Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I think the hatred on here and the perception of Hutton is a bit OTT. Yes he hasnt been great and at times poor, but I dont really see why people think he played badly yesterday. He made one stupid challenge and got skinned once by a very good player in Scott Sinclair but overall he kept Sinclair very quiet and I can guarantee not many right backs will do that. He also put in and won more tackles than any of the back line. We have much bigger problems the way Heskey limits our side, that Collins is prone to several errors per game that aften leads to a goal. That when Delph plays he has no first touch and to say he was crab like yesterday is being kind. That Bent cant seem to stay on side and when he does his finishing hasnt been as good as it normally is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
