Beasttt We beat Liverpool with Chris Herd and Brett Holman in the team. We won an fa cup semi final with Richardson and Nzogbia playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Jury's still out on how the Burnley fans see him, but one thing I noticed is that they're absolutely loving that they took Lowton from us. Some of them think he's even better than Trippier was for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame he needed to be consistently good at premier league level straight away, we didn't have other options so he had to make the jump up and hit the ground running and then maintain that pace. Dyche also seems like an excellent manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you should start Westytalk and kick it off with an apology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them think he's even better than Trippier was for them. Always liked Lowton. He got caught in some silly positions sometimes, but I could never blame him too badly because he was always trying to do the right thing. He still gave me the best Villa player performance I *may* have ever seen when we absolutely smashed Sunderland 6-1. It says something to me when the best, most noticeable, stand out performance that night was our right back! It included a Benteke hat-trick, but I've never seen an entire game run through a right back. I was absolutely certain at that point that he was going to be great. Think his physicality held him back as he wasn't the strongest/fastest, but he could definitely play football. Good technique. It's nice to see him doing well. On Westwood, he'll be alright for Burnley, they play on the floor and like to pass a bit - he'll do fine there with Barton the enforcer. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was magnificent and like you say, in a game where we got 6 and out striker scored a hat trick he was head and shoulders above all else. Westwood probably will be ok. He's now a squad player for a team whose aim the next couple of years is to just survive. He can probably just about do that role now he's in a more settled team. If he's a regular starter for them over the next 12 months then I think they're in trouble and fans will soon realise the complete lack of any impact he will have on their games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I agree with most of that I think the key point is that it's a settled side. Dyche will know what he wants Westwood to do/be - and I don't think he'll let anyone down. Villa's problem has been, and seemingly continues to be, we don't know what we want our midfielders to do and who does what, so we just sit deep and accept getting shafted most weeks Edited February 13, 2017 by lapal_fan sentence structuture was terrible, now it's just bad.
