LondonLax Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Clark won't be here next season unless he dramatically improves. Club are just ensuring he's not lost on the cheap. Is this your opinion or have you hear something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted July 26, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 26, 2013 I think he will revert back to 3-5-2 aswell even though it's a terrible idea. not necessarily such a bad system and not necessarily 5 across the middle either, 3-4-3 would work and our front 3 stays the same.

Mantis Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 As far as I'm aware it wasn't an ITK that started this, but some Liverpool fan who saw AVFC officials on a plane to Pescara. People since then have just connected the dots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this your opinion or have you hear something? I think it's his opinion and I think he's spot on, we did the same with lichaj and Hogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I think its just common sense Clark has been here for a while now and has shown very little signs of improvement How much more experience does he need? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 People saying we would have five challenging for two positions, imagine us getting two serious injuries and the picture looks alot different. I think PL is trying to ensure that we are not depleted in any area. Furthermore we NEED fierce competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker is injury prone, Vlaar will always have question marks over him due to that long injury last season and Clark is just shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I think he will revert back to 3-5-2 aswell even though it's a terrible idea. It depends on the personnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Really hope we don't go back to 3-5-2 It worked once against Liverpool which was very much a fluke result and cost us so many points in the games that followed Edited July 26, 2013 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 People saying we would have five challenging for two positions, imagine us getting two serious injuries and the picture looks alot different. I think PL is trying to ensure that we are not depleted in any area. Furthermore we NEED fierce competition. Indeed. Anyone remember Herd and Lowton playing center back last season? Nobody wants to see that again. I think the manager has been giving Herd a run at CB this summer to see if he's capable of playing 5th choice. He clearly isn't. 5 center backs, 3 of which are under 22 is far from overkill. Enjoy having a squad people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 this Capuana guy seem to have his account before about a year .. Although his tweet stopped in August .. Begin in June ! Maybe Due to the season ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 No idea what the obsession with some of you and the 3-5-2 idea is. We've not used it once pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Regular ITKs on twitter seem convinced that Capuano is non starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp_avfc Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 This is what we need really, get a squad of players where there is competition for places, which breeds everyone trying as hard as possible to get and stay in the first team, 5 Center Backs would certainly help that, would also mean we could have a squad capable of going on a long cup run, whilst also keeping on track in the league! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 Why would we completely change formation from what we've been using for the majority of last season and our entire pre-season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pembers Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) rich smith @rsmiffy20091h @MarcoCapuano14 you coming to villa?

Mattyp_avfc Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Regular ITKs on twitter seem convinced that Capuano is non starter. Surely if the player himself says that there's something in it then that's more believable than any ITK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
privateer Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I want us to bring in at least one more defender. In case anyone has forgotten, our defence was effin shit. All season long. It needs as much strengthening as possible. Clean sheets? Remember them? More chance of finding them in a ward for the chronically incontinent than at any of our matches last season.
