JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Baker, Weimann, Clark, Guzan, Westwood and then Lowton next up! Vlaar must be a bit miffed Why should he be? He is undoubtedly on a much bigger contract than them, his time will come once he performs again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Look at the message this sends out. Come here, perform and we'll look after you. The way it should be. It's a shame some don't get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Brilliant news. Absolutely adore him. I've say this a million times in a million threads but I think we have a genuine top class talent in out hands here. That performance against Sunderland in particular was the best I've ever seen by a Villa full back, one of the best I've seen from any full back. Hope he's here his entire career. He'll go down as a legend. Id argue that the performance against Sunderland was up there with the best performances I have seen from any Villa player. I thought he was out of this world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a chance it was because I'd been starved of decent play for a few years but I remember saying to my family and other ST holders sitting around me in the Upper Holte that I had never seen a full back run a game like that before. He was first class that day. More of the same please Matthew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to take anything from Benteke or anybody else that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted July 18, 2013 Moderator Share Posted July 18, 2013 It is beyond belief that we got him for £900k compared to some of the dross we've signed in recent years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 It is beyond belief that we got him for £900k compared to some of the dross we've signed in recent years. If he continues his form of February forward thought next season he goes down as the signing of Lerner's era for sure. Makes you wonder who of the new lot will step up in the way Lowton and to a leaser extent Westwood have. You'd bet at least one will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowton was so involved and it seems everything he tried that night came off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Biro Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 It does make you wonder how many lower league players would be good premierleague players if managers just had the stones to give them a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Whenever I play FM, I always look to sign a RB who will be my RB for his whole career, a la Russell Martin at Norwich. I don't know why it's always a RB but it's meant I have a soft spot for them. I hope Lowton is that player for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolteEndRob Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 His performance against Sunderland was one of the best performances by a right back that I have seen in the last 25 years! He was immense that day. Now that he's had a full season to settle in and adapt to the huge step up to the Premier League, he's only going to improve. If he has a great season then who knows, he could be on that flight to Brazil next summer if England qualify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp_avfc Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Brilliant player, this should show other players we look at that if they play well, show willing then the club will look after them, give them a good contract and then that should therefore gives us a progression up the table!!

UTV! This. Young players in the lower leagues will know that if they're putting in the work and are talented, then there is at least one Premier League manager who will possibly be taking notice.

Keyblade Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) Currently watching that Sunderland match again, and Lowton's performance was as good as any I have seen from Baines for lack of a better comparison. Absolutely outstanding. Edit: That nutmeg at 41:00 whaaaat. Edited July 19, 2013 by Keyblade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1000 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Really pleased about this. Probably the best new deal of the summer! If he can carry on performing at the level that he was the last 10 or so games of last season, then we will have a top right back on our hands. As Trent mentioned above, difficult to believe we picked him up for under £1m! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFCforever1991 Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Next summer's benteke Well, apparently English players are more expensive e.g. Andy Carroll, Jordan Henderson and Downing.. So we set the asking price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
