Zatman Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Carrick would look brilliant in our team so would any half decent player. Ayew and Adama look very very good in our team and they arent really brilliant players 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poitier Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 53 minutes ago, useless said: Westwood is one of those players who's as good as the players around him. Put him the Arsenal team and I think he'd do alright (caution, I know some might disagree). But put him a poor team and he doesn't have the ability to lift those around him, to an higher standard. I agree, I wouldn't be at all surprised if another PL club comes in for him at the end of the season. Sure, it probably won't be a fashionable club, but he would probably perform well in a functioning team, and then people could moan about how he never played like that for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post commander Posted January 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2016 I can't see this - he'd be a good player in a good team. In my opinion he'd be a liability in a good team. Also stick him in any team where he was playing DCM and he'll continue to be abysmal, he's gutless off the ball and even more so when on it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Physically he's not up to it, has no impact on a game whatsoever, and does not track runners. A major problem with our midfield, although I don't think Gana is much better either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just trying to say that I think he's one these players who's as good as those around. For example I think if you put someone like Carrick in our team, he'd look pretty poor too. Not so. If Westwood was any good, he would stand out in our team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 He is going to be 26 this year and is not a promising youngster anymore. He is a bog average lower league midfielder on a fat contract at Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky for him at Aston Villa you are considered a promising young talent into your early 30's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
commander Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 It takes a huge level of ineptitude to even be gutless when running at someone to try to foul them.... wimps out and turns his back on it. Gutless. Useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I've never thought he's been as bad as made out in previous seasons, he's had good games and spells of good form. However this season he looks every inch the lower league midfielder who can't believe his luck he's a premier league player. The reason? IMO in previous seasons the likes of D*lph and Cleverley being around him have lifted his game. It's the same with Benteke. Good players lift the standards of other players in the team so they look better than they actually are. Suddenly with no Benteke to get on the end of his crosses, Bacuna goes back to being a mediocre player and without D*lph's energy, Westwood goes back to being a bog standard midfielder who can sometimes pass well but does little else. When these players suddenly are asking to do things in games themselves they're just not capable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New_Jersey_Villa Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Westwood's biggest problem is that a wet brown paper bag is likely to win more challenges over the course of 90 minutes than he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Can't see many managers looking at their teams and coming to the conclusion that what they need is someone you don't notice for 90 minutes but who can once or maybe twice a game pick out a pretty nice pass. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
