Dr_Pangloss Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Awful today, lacked composure on the ball, his corners are very quickly becoming a complete and utter joke and I think it was him who was very easily barged off the ball for the second goal (although I stand to be corrected on this). Extremely poor performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 I didn't think he was as bad as people make out. He did put in one great freekick and played a fantastic 40 yard pass. Seems to be a soft target this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 One decent set-piece delivery and one good pass = good performance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) I didn't say good but not as bad as people make out. Nobody says anything about the amount of times KEA gave the ball away in possession. Edited October 20, 2013 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 That freekick was an excellent delivery and shows you what he's capable of but his overall performance was poor. I rate Westwood but he needs to shake this slump of his very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaguy Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 I've seen him have worse games and get less stick. I think that first corner he had put straight out of play was his attempt at the kind of in-swinger that everyone craves, needs to work on it clearly. Bacuna would be better at taking these duties over or Tonev when he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worry of he will now become the new Barry Bannan. He admitted his job is to protect the defence yesterday and he utterly failed. As bad as anything Bannan served up last season.

It wasn't a chipped floater at all, had a lot of pace on it. He wrapped his foot round it too much hence the reason it went out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avflife Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) As much as I rate him he needs to be dropped, problem is who do you play out of him and KEA; an out-of-form Westwood or someone who doesn't look like a Premiership quality centre midfielder??

BG_Villa_Fan Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Probably useful against smallest teams but just can't get into the game against bigger teams. Wouldn't play him unless we're winning possession He probably wouldn't be happy playing a couple of games per season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
