myko Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 So many people (presumably/hopefully mostly kids) on Twitter sticking up for him saying it's Eric Black's fault 'cus he's our best player and all this bollocks. Literally almost every reply. He'd probably make my strongest xi but it's not like he's some class act is it? Was promising before his injury but ever since he seems to have declined as a player and would have no problem with us selling him in the summer. Seems to have a horrendous attitude by the looks of the latest Villa Park story. Personally think Baker would do a better job for us in the Championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Well he should have been playing, but that is no way to act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Yeah, Having read the full article he has a point however throwing your toys out of the pram is pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPAngel Posted April 22, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 22, 2016 Agree with the above. Ship him out and start with Clarke and Baker at the back. At least going down gives us a chance to finally use the likes of Baker, Gardner and all the other youngsters which have been deemed exciting at one point or another.

Popular Post BOF Posted April 22, 2016 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2016 It's pretty obvious this is the player engineering a move away from a relegated club and with no desire to play in the Chumpionship. The problem we have is that he's actually worth something on the open market so it's not in our interest to hand him his contract and say Kthxbye. It is becoming increasingly apparent that this club is full of utter arseholes though. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Firstly, there's absolutely no good reason as to why he hasn't been starting every game for us when fit, given how bad Lescott and Richards and the other prats are. However, I think this is just Okore trying to force a move. There's no way he wants to play in the Championship, and his elevated sense of ability sees him being at a champions league club. So this is a fast way to force a move as soon as possible. Overall he has been a half decent player for us. He looked an immense talent in the early days but injuries and almost ruined him. He is without a shadow of a doubt our best centre half, but that's not saying much. He's a decent, mid-table at best player, who hasn't improved his game one iota since the day he walked through the door.

Keyblade Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I thought Jores was one of the good ones But then again, I thought the same of Delph. ***** footballers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phumfeinz Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Never lived up to the hype of that Chelsea video. I said it a few weeks ago, the only players I want us to keep are Amavi, Ayew and Gestede. Everyone else can do one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubberman Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Everything I read about Villa these days makes me shake my head and sigh. Yes - he should have been playing. But refusing to play is appalling. The dressing room really must be toxic - no wonder Black was talking about anarchy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponky Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Saying he's better than Richards or Lescott is like saying Pol Pot was better than Hitler or Stalin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Danwichmann Posted April 22, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2016 Can anyone think of another job, where you can flat out tell your manager you don't want to work anymore, and not only not be sacked, but continue to be paid? The attitude of our players is just mind boggling. If I go to a game this season, I will be booing until I'm horse. I've never liked booing players, but some of this lost are nothing but oxygen thieves. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
