Hopefully we will go with Jedinak and Tshibola in the middle. Just when we think we might be rid of one problem in westwood, enter jedinak.

sonic_bouma Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Sick and tired of seeing this wet lettuce in our midfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 This guy pisses me off. Two opportunities to get the ball and clear it in our box in quick succession and both times he backed off because he didn't want to get clattered by the Newcastle player trying to get the ball. And then when Ayew went on that run from deep in our own half all the way to their box, he was nowhere to be seen offering no support whatsoever. I really, really hope Tshibola and Jedinak is our preferred midfield pairing because this pathetic wuss should never wear a Villa shirt again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedinak doesn't seem to be much of an improvement, to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaninireland Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Yet another inept performance today. He offers nothing to the team. The best thing he did today was get substituted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Woeful first half, much better second half. Jedinak was much worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 39:20 min he pulled out of ball on edge of box and nearly resulted in a goal. Chester went beserk with him. He is not only useless but gutless to 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbauer24 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 It there is still anyone who thinks Westwood should be automatically dropped then they just need to look at the performance of Jedinak today, he was truly awful. In fact Jedinak made me question my stance on him replacing Gardner today! Jedinak plays worse and worse each game. Westwood is what he is and may well be improved on in 2017 but at the moment, like the fact or not, he's still one of our best midfielders. Obviously our midfield is awful so it's not necessarily saying much but he currently has to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow as a cart horse all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Jedinak was poor but he can still add a bit of a physical presence in midfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we need more to be honest. The onus is on us to win games, dominate and break teams down. Not sure how much use Jedinak will be this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted September 24, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2016 Just such a nothing player. Tried hard again, can't fault him for that. We need so much more. Tish is twice the player and is about 5 years younger. Westwood just has no influence on the game at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 We may as well play 4-2-4 and skip centre mid entirely with this useless word removed and Jedinak in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's basically been a worse Westwood. Better in the air though, granted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Jedinak was very poor in parts but he did improve towards the end, especially when Tshibola got into the game. I'm sorry but Westwood is the common denominator when trying to work out why our midfield has been so weak and non-creative for the last few seasons. He just offers nothing of any note during most games he plays in. He needs to be replaced permanently and so does Gardner, as he is pretty much the same type of player. We need to sign a dynamic midfielder or two in January to accompany Jedinak and Tshibola. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Jedinak was **** woeful for the entire game. Absolute cack. Westwood was incredibly poor, but nowhere near as bad. We probably need to stick with 3 midfielders in the middle of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa89 Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Terrible again today and scared of his own shadow as per usual. Bottling challenges left right and center. Not good enough. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieVillan Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 Sadly he's been a common factor in Villa's midfield for the past few years, possibly the worst midfield in my 30 years following Villa. He still has a role to play, but I think it should only be as back up or from the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sidcow Posted September 24, 2016 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2016 Noticed some quality pointing today. Some of it was in the direction where he could have moved to in order to receive the ball if he hadn't have been walking slowly whilst pointing. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
