Like i said no player should be given abuse if they put in a good performance whether thats bacuna or the players you have highlighted. Bacuna was tracking back getting stuck in. Ayew was non existant in his defensive duties 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I don't wholly agree with the abuse but **** him, he played his part in relegating this club, he shouldn't be exempt from being reminded of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 He looked dangerous second half after a first half in which he offered nothing, I see him as being a squad player in the future but that's purely based on todays game cus if I judged him on last season I wouldn't want him anywhere near the squad.

Pilchard Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Rubbish first half, much better second until what looks like abuse from our own fans, and seemed to shrink. We may travel in numbers, and it may be very frustrating doing so, but we don't help ourselves sometimes. Having said that, he wouldn't have been starting if I were picking the team.

For that reason alone, he needs to be removed (along with the others) as its the only way the club can heal itself. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtysanchez Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 If he plays well im happy for him to play for Villa, he wasn't the only contributor last season it was the whole team, forgive and forget, leave last season exactly where it is, the past. he did well today despite all the abuse he was getting which I'm sure he definitely heard! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO Yeah mate i know you wasnt no worries I agree they need to go but while they are hear they shouldn't be getting dogs balls at them if they perform well. I tjought bacuna was good 2nd half. Worked very hard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supervillan78 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) Not enough quality IMO. Had a dreadful start, but improved second half. Nevertheless he should never, ever start in a Villa shirt again. He's OK to bring on when we're 3 nil up with 10 to go (and that's at a push).

What is the purpose of the abuse though? Is there anything more to it than just venting? Yes we were relegated in a shitty way, but the past must remain in the past. Its pretty obvious that we have confidence issues in the team, throwing abuse at him during the game isnt helping. Fans venting over last season shouldnt take priority over this one, even if its directed at one person it can still affect the whole team. Especially when he had a decent game, give credit where its due and all that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reivax_Villa Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I would love him to score a few because until he does anything significant the fans are going to be against him. It's a shame because he showed a lot more willingness and desire today than he did last season.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Invisible all first half, but in the 2nd half when he knew he could be subbed, he picked up his game. Still is one of the best crossers we have and if Gestede is starting Bacuna should be on the pitch. Probably at right back though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to take more than desire to make up for a lack of quality and being a hated player from last year. Is he really worth trying to win the crowd over? Let's be honest we should be aiming for better. I'd have grealish or green in ahead of him any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well what's the point of supporting our team if he starts then? Backwards mentality.. How can we expect our team to perform well when despite his hard work and desire he going to get booed or abused? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
