CI Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Agree but we don't want to get pastings like Norwich did a few times last year We are Aston Villa not Norwich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted August 8, 2012 Moderator Share Posted August 8, 2012 We've been getting a few ourselves recently, which is very un-Villa. We're not going to be CL material next season. If we get a good turnaround on the previous season and it's all going in the right direction then I'm not going to throw a spaz if there are a few speedbumps along the way.

AVFCforever1991 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 At least we would have given it a go, instead of just accepting losing 3-0, I would rather we lose 4-3.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 At least we would have given it a go, instead of just accepting losing 3-0, I would rather we lose 4-3.. thats not the correct comparision. more like: instead of accepting a 2-0 loss, we give it a good go, but end up losing 4-0 instead. would you be happy with that? (btw, i would). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I think we need someone like N'Daw sat just in front of Vlaar & Baker That would protect the back line and allow players like KEA / Ireland to be more progressive up the field Are you a retard?

Certainly with the midfield being mobile and protecting the back four, with someone (The way he's used Bannan in some pre-season) coming to the defenders to collect the ball and begin the attack. Maybe not N'Daw but like you say someone like him. Annan possibly, Makoun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 You'd like to think we've been scouting this elusive DCM for a while and are perhaps close to landing someone Would love Nigel De Jong but thats not gonna happen so a similar player to that would be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you? Seems like a reasonable idea and seems like the way Lambert would like to play. If we do bring in a defensive midfielder, it has to be someone like (I said like. I know not as good as) Yaya Toure who can defend well but can also make driving, powerful runs up field. I saw Clark do that a couple times last season. I liked him in the position, but it might be nice to bring someone in for that role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted August 8, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 8, 2012 i think KEA may well be the closest you are going to get to this hard case destroyer in fron of the back 4 that some of you are crying out for. i don't think PL's game calls for one either. i think he will organise us to get the ball back with good pressing and movement without the ball. certainly a lot of the quotes from the players have been talking about good running on the ball and off the ball in both phases. i could well be wrong and he's looking for a way to push KEA up the field but i doubt it, i think KEA will line up with bannan/herd/gardner/makoun as the two most withdrawn CMs and there will be ireland, zog/holman or zog and holman in front of them.

KHV Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I'd play Herd too due to his tacklin ability and jumping feats as Wet Spam will play the percentage game and get the ball into the danger zone as much as they can. My midfield would be - ---------Herd----KEA--------- Bannan----------------Holman ------------Ireland------------ There is not much in that midfield really. Its very very short on quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
