A shame. Became useful second half of the season and seemed to be happy with his role in the squad knowing he could be called upon and be effective. Goal against West Ham could arguably have been the most important of the entire season, so I cut him some slack for that.

Me too. He was excellent against WBA aswell and also Fulham at home although typically for him that performance divided opinion on here.

Not good news. I think he could've done well next season. Hope it's not too serious.

Good luck in your recovery Charlie. Became an important role player towards the end of the season and chipped in with a couple of important goals. Accepted his place in the squad under Lambert which is a big change to the attitude we thought he had.

So he may miss the start of the season or may not; may miss the first month; or may be out longer.

That's precise!

Maybe he fell over trying to shoot with his right foot rather than cutting in to use his left. Harsh? Probably. True? Yep

Would have thought that means we won't be selling him this summer.

What an idiot. He always makes the wrong decision 90% of the time when playing. Looks like he made the wrong one again. I'm guessing he misjudged the step when getting into the Gallardo LP 570-4 Spyder.

"unspecified injury". That could quite literally be anything.

Frustrating in as much as we probably won't be able to flog him now. I don't think he offers anywhere close to enough for his wage. Plus when he has played, even in his better games, our shape didn't look right. We seemed more like a 4-2-4. Okay that's down to Lambert not sacrificing one of Gab or Andy, but still, I can't see where he fits into Lamberts game plan in all honesty. He doesn't work hard enough to play one of the wide roles. Playing off the striker means fiddling with our system or sacrificing one of our CM players. We look far better when we play 3 in the mid, with Sylla, Delph and Westy.

He's one of our few sellable, and expendable assets. 5 mill for him and 50k a week saved on wages could have got to 2-3 Lambert specials. Looks as if we'll have to wait till Jan to flog him in all honesty, unless he's fit by late August. In which case he's that sort of player you could see going to somewhere like Hull, Fulham, West Ham etc on deadline day.

CNZ is fortunate that Stephen Ireland exists otherwise he would justifiably be getting a lot of grief for being an (the) under-performing money grabbing not-often-do-well.

Ooo Eck signed so fair dos not going to fit in to a 7-2-1 formation as one of the seven but he had a lot of chances last season to be the main man and was woeful.

A waste of space at Villa. Heal quickly Charlie so we can ship you on.
