BleedClaretAndBlue Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 This is most fans mentality and thinking now though and i can understand it completely given our record with injuries in the last few seasons. Brittle side in more ways than one. ACLs, Achilles, Leg breaks all over the gaff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Every year I wonder the same thing, do fans not remember last pre season, or the many before that one? Players take games off for little bumps and knocks when during the regular season there's absolutely no way they would. They also pick up niggly little strains that they wouldn't normally, as you'd expect after 6 weeks or so of "inactivity", or in Okores case almost a year. Especially when they're coming back from long term injury. As with Cole, nothing to see here. Plenty of time to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got a point, especially with Okore who should be back for Chesterfield, but Joe Cole's "niggly" injuries usually mean he only plays half a season, and apparently is only going to "start running" again next week.

Mantis Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 So because Okore got a knock last pre-season and then got that terrible injury a month later that MUST mean the same thing will happen this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itdoesntmatterwhatthissay Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Played well today, very comfortable on the ball. I agree that he was comfortable on the ball and he doesn't seem too concerned about coming back from a horrible injury, tis a good sign, lets hope he can improve his fitness and be a first team contender. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I did wonder where BJ had gone to... Been thinking the same! I feel like Eeyore's got himself a villatalk account. Perhaps add him to our celebrity fan list. On topic: I think Okore is going to be a part of a surprising season for us. I think we're in a much better position than last year and the year before. I'm a 'stick with the manager' kind of person, and I'm giving Lambert the benefit of the fact that I think the Villa job has been a nightmare challenge. I also don't really care about the takeover. It could turn out to be a good thing or a bad thing, so I'd rather just live in the now. We needed experience, and we have much more of it now. Injured players back, an refresh for the younger players, who will have a lot less pressure on them with the likes of Cole/N'Zogbia around…when you've got no money like us then progress is only going to come slowly, but the main positive for me is we didn't panic and sack the manager.
