Stevo985 Posted January 4, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2015 problem is no sooner they come in on the back of a good game they soon slip back in to the mode of play of the player they have just replaced. its a buggers muddle.....they are all much of a muchness. and there in lies the problem, our players are incapable of putting in more than one good performance consecutively But this has nothing to do with the manager in charge no.......??? These are the threads where Lambert's squad is poor is it? It seems to vary depending on the point being made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulfromsutton Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I would have played bacuna today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevpants Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Interesting that he and Grealish, who came out and expressed disappointment with their performances have been left out when much more turgid site continues to hold down a place. This club needs a serious shake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Bacuna was one of our brighter sparks over the festive period. I cannot fathom why he was left out to make way for 4 central midfielders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fab Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 I think our best chance at the moment would be to play Bacuna and hope for good free-kick positions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay.P.A Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) Has he tried it with Lambert's daughter or something? What more does Bacuna have to do to start ahead of crap players like Cleverley? Everytime he's come on he's tried something positive, and looked to create something.

chappy Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 He should be playing. Cleverley out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Special mention to Lowton for jumping off the bench today ready to swing, and even more of a special mention to Bacuna who was ready in case Lowton needed back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They showed more fight than Gabby and Cleverley did all game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Bacuna isn't amazing but to me if you're playing a middle three he has to be in there as at least he can run with the ball and has a lot of energy. Next week I'd go for.......................Delph (if he's still here) Sanchez Bacuna Although Lambert will be ultra defensive and play three sitterzzzzzz as usual but he could still play Bacuna as one of the three forwards.

BigCarew Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 What does this lad have to do to get a run of games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danishlad Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 For me Bacuna has to play - He scores goals with both feet He puts in a decent cross with both feet He has good pace, strength He is a good defender and attacker - he can go past a player Scores free kicks Though sometimes he looks green, therefore needs a run of games. I'd play him in front of Hutton and see if they can strike a good defensive and attacking partnership. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROTTERDAM1982 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Would be ahead of Westwood and Cleverley for me, and unless he signs a new contract, Delph as well. Sanchez is the key player, its about fitting players around him, a combination of Sanchez and Bacuna , i think is a solid CM pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me - he doesn't have 360 degree orientation- which you need to play centrally. Wide right in front of Hutton he could play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexicon Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I think his ability is being overstated somewhat here. He's very hit and miss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted January 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted January 14, 2015 Would play Bacuna wide (unless we sign a wide midfielder in this window) over Wiemann, Agbonlahor or N'Zogbia with Grealish on the other wing. Central midfield, imo, should be held by Sanchez, Gil and one of Cleverly, Delph, Westwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
