Amo69 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 to be fair to him he was never a bad player. He just got thrown in to a very poor team in the quickest most competitive league in the world. Must have really affected his game. Looks much more comfortable now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Good again yesterday. Offered some much needed composure at times. Will start vs Liverpool in all likelihood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I'm actually surprised how much he has improved I thought it was a one off against Arsenal obviously not Long may it continue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I'm actually surprised how much he has improved This. Looks a different player so far this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Folski Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Like a new signing himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amo69 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I'm not suprised at all. You put a good player in a good team and if they are not good enough it stands out like a sore thumb. Last season he was as poor as the rest of the team when he played but got stick because he was a new signing and we expected better. Good players need good players around them to excel.

abdulaziz1 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I'm actually surprised how much he has improved This. Looks a different player so far this season tbf he played one time at the end of season .. and just a second half against Utd .. Playing with three midfielders make you do a better job ..

Avfc96 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Impressed with him so far this season. Feel that people were to quick to criticize him last season given that he was new to the league and he was put into a shit team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted August 22, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2013 You could see him tiring towards the end. Other than that - a real terrier. Like Delph, he has the ability to win possession and work in tight spaces. Unlike Delph, he usually retains possession Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Let's wait and see how he works against lesser teams, when we are expected to win, when we are supposed to keep up momentum and attacking teams. Losing 2-1 away to Chelsea is OK, drawing West Ham and losing to Swansea on the trot is not. Different teams, different expectations and so on.

BOF Posted August 22, 2013 Moderator Share Posted August 22, 2013 Given the kind of player he is, now that he's up to speed I expect against the lesser sides he'll flourish assuming he hasn't lost his place to Sylla by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandaq Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Still wanna see Sylla though, love that guy. But KEA has done well, and I agree with the notion that he is like a new signing. Our midfield has been very composed so far, hope we can keep that up. IMO throwing in bacuna,sylla and such might unsettle that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 even though we were well beaten I think that United game gave him the confidence to prove he can play at this level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaglint Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hes our only central midfielder that has a great long range shot on him. Think Mr Gardner would disagree with you there Omar! Also I'm sure KEA was renowned for poor shooting at Feynoord maybe his hit against Everton was a fluke not done a lot since shooting wise unless I'm forgetting something?
