Gives me some hope for young Wesley I know, it will be great when he starts banging them in for Crystal Palace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. But Birmingham City and West Brom are our rivals. We don't sing about Wolves. We couldn't (for the most part) give a **** about Wolves. However, they love to sing about us.

VillaJ100 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 They'd be a great buy. Got half the Portugal squad and a few other great players for about 30 quid. Jesus christ I'd have loved it if they'd had **** up the year they got promoted, they'd have gone totally bust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_Villain Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 If only Randy Lerner wasnt such a complete and utter stain and had actually invested in proven quality for us in our later years; Traore might never have left... He's become some player!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 This may be unfair... Although Traore has improved, I'm not sure it's by that big a margin. He could always do the mental take on 5 at once stuff. The crosses he's producing are fairly standard a lot of the time, they're just coming after he's been put in a good position to roast some poor clearing in the woods who's been isolated and has no chance to stop him. (The screaming goals are new though, and welcome) Wolves just use him brilliantly. Near on perfectly in fact. The formation works so well. Jimenez plus the whole midfield and defence are all such intelligent players, drilled into fantastic system. Feels like over half of all their plays are built to release him into space. They flock to him as well when he's deep to give him an out ball, because you know he'd be up for trying to carry it past 10 players up to the other box. Loads and loads of credit to Nuno for managing to harness him to this extent. Having so many smart and talented players around him has helped as well. And credit to Traore for this new consistency, one of the the most exciting players in the world the watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Don't think their form has been that great of late, only taken four points from the last five games, losing to Watford and failing to beat Newcastle, also got knocked out of the FA cup by United. They're closer to Newcastle in fourteenth than they are to Chelsea in fourth. Still doing better than I was expecting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted January 27, 2020 Traore has definitely improved. But I don't think we can be blamed for not keeping him. He was absolutely **** toilet for us. And although the potential was there, his alleged attitude wasn't something we should have been tolerating. Fair play to him (and Nuno) for harnessing some of that potential, but I don't think it's a massive stain on Aston Villa that we let him go. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my thoughts on him too, still one of the most exciting players to watch, still ridiculously fast, still skinning people for fun, decision making and crossing still iffy albeit improved I'd love to see a stat for him for dribbles that resulted in a chance created, that one that Jack is the best player in the league at, I would lazily guess that the overall stats for him running and beating players is incredible, goals and assists are good but % of successful beating of a defender followed by a chance or goals and assists are actually quite poor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Apparently, Morgan Gibbs White (Wolves next big thing) was out partying at the weekend with people from sex on the Beach. Another one who previously was a club spokesman in the don’t go out push. Footballers really are a different kind Of stupid aren’t they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
