AVTuco Posted February 8, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 8, 2014 This has been said a billion times already, but why are we playing Holt instead of Nicklas? Holt can be a leader in the dressing room without having to play. And come on to protect the lead. Other than that, Nicklas should be the guy.

dudevillaisnice Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 He is wasted here. Actually feel for him, he probably is very average or he probably is very good who knows but I genuinely think he can't do much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 If he's currently not better than grant holt then I can't see him doing much next season either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted February 8, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted February 8, 2014 I refuse to believe that. On the other hand, how do I know when he doesn't play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avflife Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Seeing Grant Holt and previously Jordan Bowery starting and coming on before you, enough to destroy any-ones confidence. Feel sorry for the lad, should of least been able to go out on loan in the Championship to get some much-needed experience.

Villarocker Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 We should have thrown this lad on instead of Bennett. Delph could have gone to left back. After all, there wasn't long to go and we were 2 goals down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan_007 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) Funny that after a defeat this thread always gets a bump, like he would have come on and scored a hatrick. He was the second highest scorer in his league, the top scorer joined Cardiff for 9mill and has flopped, I think he might have even gone back to Denmark on loan. This shows us that the step up is great, and time is needed to adjust. For the millionth time, helenius said himself when he joined that he knew the situation, he knew he may not play much if at all in his first season. His agent stated he didn't want to go on loan, he wanted to stay and keep training with the squad. It isn't as black and white as because Holt starts he is better than helenius. He just has more experience. He will get his chance, but we haven't got 9mill burning a hole in our pocket until he is ready.

As has been said many times before, Helenius is an unknown quantity to the opposition and has looked ok in his VP appearances, why not give him a go over Holt? At least he's mobile.

ismail-villa Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Wouldn't mind seeing him play behind Benteke and be the creative person. Him and Benteke have had decent link ups in their short amount of games together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MessiWillSignForVilla Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I'd start him against Newcastle, Benteke was poor tonight and needs a kick up the arse, unless he is the worst striker the league has ever seen - obvs that's fatty Holt though LOL* - I can't see what harm it could do. Also Benteke could cause really trouble coming on against tired legs if he's up for it. * just getting the joke in early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myko Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Think we'd fall apart with no Benteke personally as, in form or not (however I actually thought he did well tonight), he is the target man for the whole team. I would like to see Helenius instead of Gabby at home though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances of it happening are very slim though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
