Dr_Pangloss Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Hines is his worst nightmare isn't he? That basically tells you how shit he is as a defender. His position is clearly in midfield because his delivery is decent and he has decent feet and a turn of pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwood Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Set up our goal but then conceded the corner that led to their goal. Poor. You're actually blaming a player for giving away a corner?? Seriously. Surprisingly that's why full backs do quite a lot. What with trying to stop the cross of wingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 He's a liability as a defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 @wildwood Not in that situation, wouldnt see Ashley Cole, Leighton Baines do that. **** wouldnt see Alan HUtton defend as bad as that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarjei Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 no offence but i dont buy this. he was 90 yards from goal, we had 40 minutes to score knock it out for a throw in instead of doing something stupid I know.. if I was the manager I would be screaming at him, and in any case told him to stop this a loong time ago, because it has happend a few times already. Still, I just find on this forum that people love to take a shit on players, even when they have a decent game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 i thought he was great 1st half, both going forward and defending, made 1 mistake and that was the silly foul, 2nd half iirc 1st touch tried to do a turn got robbed and instantly drained of all his confidence, 2nd touch was the shit one that gave away the corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwood Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 @wildwood Not in that situation, wouldnt see Ashley Cole, Leighton Baines do that. **** wouldnt see Alan HUtton defend as bad as that It shouldn't even be an issue. The issue is we can't defend corners. No Alan Hutton would have got sent off for attempting to take out the player and de-balling the linesman instead.

Zatman Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 well then it is the issue. if we cant defend them we shouldnt be conceding easy ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darn emoticons. I can see the logic if we're talking about penalties: - We concede from penalties - Let's try not to give them away However I don't think that same logic applies here.

Swerbs Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 What the **** else was Bennett meant to do there? Risk getting done again, foul him or kick the ball out? We should be able to defend corners, end of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Reacho Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 What the **** else was Bennett meant to do there? Risk getting done again, foul him or kick the ball out? We should be able to defend corners, end of. Shouldn't have got into the situation to begin with. Deffo improving slowly I think. Hopefully getting stung tonight will sharpen him up further.

That's true but hindsight is a wonderful thing, how people can blame him for tonight though is beyond me.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I can't believe he's getting any praise at all. He can't hold up the ball to save his life, he loses it all the time, he can't pass, he's extremely weak, he can't tackle, he's pretty much always out of the position, he could get turned by a brick and he generally looks like a lost puppy. He is a truly shocking footballer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 His positioning is terrible and in defence his reading of the game is poor. Could make a winger (even if not quickest) but can't ever see him being a top level full back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCollins29 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 The worst footballer at Villa Park I have seen in the last 20 years. Not an exaggeration. Anybody name someone worse than him that has played for Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCollins29 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 No chance, Ireland has class, skill, can pick a pass, gets stuck in, can score goals. Bennett put in one good cross. Every other time he plays the ball to an opposition player. Can't tackle, head, panics. Has not got a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 No chance, Ireland has class, skill, can pick a pass, gets stuck in, can score goals. Are you on the wind up? He has smashed in an incredible one goal in 55 games for us. He also hardly has any assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
