The Bristol Nest 597 Posted November 15, 2021 I am sure that Webber will have noticed how Villa have struggled defensively since Terry left in the summer. Shakespeare has not plugged that gap. I wonder who, if anyone, will be brought in to address our obvious frailties in this area of our play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Number9 272 Posted November 15, 2021 It's definitely needed. Just basic organisation would be a start. And not everyone piling forwards at the same time. Etc etc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newtopia 573 Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) Do we really want to bring in JT……. Great player, his knowledge and coaching record are great, his behaviour probably does not always help with team spirit. Edited November 15, 2021 by Newtopia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crab man 178 Posted November 15, 2021 JT hasn't got s**t on Gary Doherty. It's time for the return of the one and only Ginger Pele!! He could teach them a thing or two. 🙌 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Google Bot 3,934 Posted November 15, 2021 You'd think Dean Smith being a center back himself would be pretty good at sorting out defence. But it seems that mentally he always fancied himself as center forward lol. He'll LOVE Kabak, then? 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,610 Posted November 15, 2021 Smith had a specialist set piece coach at Villa, although I think we have had as much of a problem from crosses from open play as set pieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is true that the alleged Anton Ferdinand incident, Wayne bridge incident, the fighting in nightclubs, scrapping at Heathrow and taking money from an under cover reporter, all happened 10 years ago, and it is fair to say he can change…….

I would be cautious If you don't allow people to change then it's very hard to improve society. Personally, I Don't think it's wise allowing rags like the News of the world to lead on moral values. Saw it myself in a pub with Ricky Hatton how journos work, and words cannot describe what utter scum they are. Absolute leeches. Not saying JT is innocent on all counts of course, but at worst it's dumb level crap he's done - in his 40's now. People preach about acceptance, yet quite happy to hold grudges using red tops as judge and jury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 4,272 Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) I don't give a toss what he did 10 years ago, if he can get us defending set pieces then get him in. Edited November 15, 2021 by Ken Hairy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bristol Nest 597 Posted November 15, 2021 Terry wants his own managerial position hence the need to find our own defensive coach. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
