rodders0223 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I was hoping to see him in the cup. Oh well, needs games badly. I hope he can get a real run up until Christmas and he will be laughing., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickjacobjr Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I m sure our target is another creative midfielder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 As Sne says, it is his last chance. If he is to have any future here, he must impress to such an extent that he forces his way into our squad when he returns. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAVFC Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Probably best, he needs a run of games and he's just not going to get that here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westholmevillan Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I thought Gardner would get some game time this season. Would have liked to have seen him play in the League Cup against Orient. I hope he gets plenty of game time until January. He has then got to prove that he is capable of playing in the Pl. Good luck Gary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I thought the sale of KEA would allow gardner to get a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfc1982 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Can't see him ever making it at the Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Good move, he probably still isn't 100% ready after his injury, but he needs to impress on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Good move for him. Not going to be a regular starter for us at the moment and therefore needs game time somewhere. Hopefully he'll get some form up and start to show at senior level what he showed at youth level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 As everyone else has said, good move. He should be aiming to do well there and come back with confidence and a make or break attitude. Always thought a lot of him, seems like a good guy with a lot of talent. Hope he does well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 He looked good in pre-season, pinging long passes around like Gerrard. I hope he gets a fair few games under his belt. Maybe him and Bennett can both come back better players? I wonder whether this means that the KEA move is off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Is it a good move when we've only given him a 12 month extension? Surely we need to see him in a villa shirt as we've only given him a short time to prove himself. Let's be honest doing well in the championship is not really evidence that he will make it here, as a lot of our recent purchases have shown.

Let's be honest doing well in the championship is not really evidence that he will make it here, as a lot of our recent purchases have shown. It's giving him more of an opportunity of a longer contract than him not getting to play at all. A good run and he might be competing for a start when he comes back, which he's unlikely to be doing barring injuries as it stands with just U21 and maybe a cup appearance to play in.

Nabby Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 He got a 2 year deal IIRC Think it's a smart move as if he does well he can either fight for a place here or we can sell him and receive a fee , which is better than letting him walk for free like Abrighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villarule123 Posted August 26, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 26, 2014 Must be the most overated academy player to come out of our club. I'm not counting Ethan Moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Must be the most overated academy player to come out of our club. I'm not counting Ethan Moore I don't know how you can call him overated when injuries have robbed us of the chance to ever see him at his best. but by all means slag the lad off after two cruciates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
