PieFacE Posted November 20, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2013 Well I hope he isn't delighted with his shooting since joining Aston Villa. He is getting better, there's no doubt about it. The last game against Cardiff was by far his best. However, i'm hoping there's much more to his game than we've seen so far.

Dodgyknees Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 He'll be one of those players who improves bit by bit. I believe in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 When he converts an Atomic Strike then i will start to believe in him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted November 20, 2013 Moderator Share Posted November 20, 2013 There's little we love more as fans than an atomic strike. So expect him to go immediately from almost-zero to instant cult hero when that happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SikhInTrinity Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I do expect a Savo type moment, when Savo lined up to shoot in the Cup final at Wembley, think the fans in the crowd were ready to catch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I think Everton was his best game and he deserved an assist, but Gabby messed it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 He's definitely shown he can hit them. I think the shot he had against Spurs (which he actually got on target) was moving about a bit. Had Friedel a bit worried. I am one of those who feels my pulse raising every time he shoots only to chuckle to myself as it sails into the stands. I think to myself "one day...one day..." Also reckon we should get him on corners, even though he will mess up 1 in 9, the one he gets right (as in game against Malaga) will be very tough to defend. I would bet that over the course of a season we would have less "efforts on goal" from corners compared to Westwood's generally accurate drives but we would score more goals. He would have to put up with a lot of crowd moaning though as he scuffed two in a row to the near post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruff Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I wish Villa Park would start screaming SHOOOT every time he received to ball regardless of his position on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_c Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) I wish Villa Park would start screaming SHOOOT every time he received to ball regardless of his position on the pitch. I wish they'd scream PASS no matter where he is on the pitch. Edited November 20, 2013 by jon_c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonoridge91 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Unfortunately many football forum users come across as wannabe football managers or game console addicts; all with added hindsight, of course. The truth in this is rather disturbing. So many people think they know the ins and outs of management and the qualities of a player based on video games that pretend to simulate it. It's rather laughable. In regards to Tonev, if he improved on his decision making I think we could have quite a nice player on our hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avfc96 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 He lost the ball countless times today and the less said about his shooting the better. Has to be dropped back to the bench next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
