Stevo985 Posted February 24, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 24, 2014 He was excellent yesterday, easily the best player. Shame he had to go off, maybe we'd have gotten something if he'd stayed on (although our problem run much deeper than that) Underrated. If anyone can find a gif of that touch in the first half I'll love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabby Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 Was our best player and we went to pieces when he went off.Was directing play for us nicely would of held on for a draw if he had stayed on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Was our best player and we went to pieces when he went off.Was directing play for us nicely would of held on for a draw if he had stayed on. We likely would of scored and won if he had of stayed on. He is so underrated. He sets up so much of our good attacking play with quick incisive passing, it was obvious to everyone yesterday how important he is to us as when he went off we were crap and offered nothing going forward. We had no one who could play a decent pass to set us up on the counter, he has been putting in solid displays for the last couple of months and would have such a bigger impact on games if he had a proper defensive midfielder behind him which would allow him to concentrate what he is good at.

GENTLEMAN Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I love the gasp from the whole stadium when he brought the ball down with an excellent touch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come we don't score more and win more with him on the pitch if it was likely to happen yesterday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villabromsgrove Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I think Westwood is a limited midfielder who has the ability to do the simple things well. He doesn't put himself about enough to dominate a midfield. Neat and tidy but no more than that imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I still think he needs to be replaced. Delph is the only one who should start with a better DM and a creative AM behind the striker. Westwood should be a squad player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Same Delph that can't pick a pass to save his life? I love Delph but highly overrated here just because he can skin someone every now and then and bang in an odd goal. He struggled in the same role because he doesn't immediately know where his next pass is going to go. Spends far too much time on the ball thinking.

How come we don't score more and win more with him on the pitch if it was likely to happen yesterday? I was talking about the game vs Newcastle,its obvious to anyone who has a clue that he was pulling the strings and setting us up with good attacks when he was on the pitch. So why would that of changed if he stayed on? Maybe we don't score more and win more because our strikers have all been crap for the majority of the season?

Yes its the strikers have only performed spasmodically this season. Westwood is under-rated and Delph over-rated. I'm not saying that Delph isn't a good player but he looses the ball too many times in possession for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not the perfect midfield player but he's the best one we have and IMO is the only one good enough to play for a top half team. It's more COULD BE good enough to play for a top half team. If Delph managed to cut out the headless chicken running, didn't fanny about on the ball and lose it as often or could actually find a pass, he'd be a good midfielder. There's still more to come from him, I'm sure of that. For the time being, though, it's fairly reassuring that Westwood does the simple things well but none of the flair stuff. Our major problem in midfield is El Ahmadi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
