ged in the onion bag 847 Posted November 6, 2021 10 hours ago, Ulfotto said: Having watched Villa twice recently it seems they haven’t realised how good buendia is. All you have to do is give him the ball. It’s like they are playing a video game and are totally unaware of the cheat mode. As my wife is a villan, we watch them often, you’re spot on, (he’s getting in the pockets), keep saying, ‘there’s the chance, pass it, but they keep using the width. Probably Douglas will find him more often than Makamba. Their style of play isn’t quite suiting his just yet, but be surprised if they don’t adapt it, particularly when you see his second half contribution. Brilliant and unplayable….. 4 good chances he created in the first 10 mins of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ian 1,117 Posted November 6, 2021 Still seems to have that quality of decision making in the final third that we've lacked all season. Let's be honest, we'd all have him back in a flash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think most of us agree with that, but the point is we've replaced quality with quantity. Add to that the falling out with Cantwell and you're left with a midfield that has zero creativity. There possibly is a long term view to take, but right now it's a tough watch with some of the worst football we've seen for many seasons. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Numan 25 Posted November 6, 2021 Looks like Smith is scapegoating Buendia. He wasn't in the game that much but he was better than the rest of Villa's team. Like Brentford, I think Villa will soon be down among the proper relegation battlers which, sadly, includes us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like Brentford, I think Villa will soon be down among the proper relegation battlers which, sadly, includes us. I agree Villa are one of the team we have to see as “competition” but to me that underlines what we are up against a team that has spent hundreds of millions in the last couple of years grealish money or not. A team who can pinch our best player at will and quadruple his wages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
