adw95 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 He's wonderful on the counter attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I'd like to see Guzan Hutton Okore Clark Cissohko Sanchez Delph Westwood Bacuna Benteke Gil Just once to see what it would be like. It's probably happened and we lost 3-0 Bacuna in stead of Weimann? No. But Weimann in there and that is a good line up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Biro Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 He was so bad at times yesterday, he is obviously capable of moments but in my opinion the bad definitely outweighed the good in yesterdays game. The bad outweighed the good, if thats true we wouldn't be in the 5th round. Complete guff, a team can win a game with a player playing badly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 His pass to Hutton for the second was the kind if intelligent ball we've missed. Bentekes had shit games for us before now and scored the winning goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bad outweighed the good, if thats true we wouldn't be in the 5th round. Complete guff, a team can win a game with a player playing badly. And your point isn't, you said his bad outweighed the good, did you actually see the ball he played to Hutton? He actually wanted the ball and drives forward, he at least tries to attempt forward passes or would you rather him just pass sideways. It's no coincidence that all of our threat came down that side of the field, with Hutton, Bacuna and Gil. Cleverley or any other of our midfielders could never play or would even attempt that pass he did to Hutton, also played the pass through to Hutton for Weimann headed chance in the first half.

mjmooney Posted January 28, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) He reminds me ,in the way he sometimes plays , of Des Bremner .Bacuna? Nah. If anybody's like Des, it's Sanchez. Edited January 28, 2015 by mjmooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) IMO it has been odd how he has only got to start 1 league game this season when our midfield has been creating so little and only scored about 1 goal between them. Hopefully he'll start some more league games soon. Edited January 28, 2015 by Brumstopdogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted January 28, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 28, 2015 He reminds me ,in the way he sometimes plays , of Des Bremner . Milner, not Des. Again, doesn't have power of Milner. Delph is probably closer in style, but there is no real close match in our squad atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i saw the pass, he was imo awful for the rest of the game and thats why i said the bad outweighed the good, that isnt the point, the point here is the response that he must have been good because were through to the 5th round which again is just utter guff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Bacuna may not be high end premier league quality but he is definitely premier league quality and not bad at 2M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post omariqy Posted January 28, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) Actually the good literally outweighed the bad in that match as none of the bad parts of his game lead to Bournemouth scoring and 2 good bits did.

Fab Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) He's a very tidy player who is always good for a bit of creative class (a neat free kick or a brilliant pass that helps unlock defences) although he was often caught out last season. The thing is. We have a better defence now and, more importantly, we have Sanchez to protect the back four. This means that we can afford to play Bacuna more often because his flaws aren't as damaging now as they were last season and his benefits are clearly needed at the moment.

omariqy Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Don't forget that more often than not he was pretty good at right back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 For £800k (or whatever) you really can't moan but praising him for the pass to Hutton just shows how ineffective our midfield have been. Basic stuff really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I feel trolled by the pair of you reading that exchange. I like Bacuna. I think without him we might not have won the weekend. Thus... You get the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
