Title: Dunne's Glimpse of the Obvious
Post by: alanclare on December 03, 2010, 03:58:40 PM
In todays Times:

Richard Dunne believes Aston Villa have to discover the winning habit soon if they are to salvage their season after their Carling Cup quarter-final defeat by Birmingham City on Wednesday.

"Hopefully this is the lowest point of our season and from here we can turn it around," Dunne, the captain said. "Things have to change because we can't just keep saying we're unlucky. We have to win games."

Well done.  Perhaps you should try not to gift the opposition silly goals in almost every game!!!!

Remember how you used to be able to tackle and stop just running into players thinking that is tackling.

He should look in the mirror and he'd soon glimpse the obvious.


He'd soon see who ate all the pies!

Why is it when players are playing crap they suddenly have pieces in the media saying "we" have got to do better.   Dunne has become a fat, lazy, sloppy, mistake prone liability and he was not that much cop when he was some good.   Is it their agents who put them up to these insults to our intelligence?

He was motivated and hungry with a point to prove to Man City when he joined us.  He has become complacent, lost hunger, and let himself get out of shape.  Just like he did at Everton and Man City.  He needs to have a word with himself very soon, or we should ship him out at the end of the season (if we can find a ship big enough).

I heard a rumour today (could be complete bollocks however) that he may of late be having an issue on the booze front. Please delete this post if it could get the site in trouble. But this could explain his dip in form.

He was fantastic last season. Hopefully it's moreso the fact hes been carrying a knee injury lately.

Some centre halves played much better when they were pissed..

But perhaps that only happens if they are true Gods..

His form at the moment is pretty poor but there were at least two fantastic interventions by Dunne against SHA on Wednesday night that demonstrated to me that he's still got it.

It's just whatever 'it' is is covered in marzipan and cake frosting at the moment.

The difference between last year and this year is crazy, He was one of our better players last year but in the space of 3 months he's turned into a useless lard arse!

Get rid as soon as I think, maybe he felt he had a point to prove after last season but now doesn't give a toss

How have Dunne, Collins and Warnock turned from inspired signings last season to championship defenders this? It's an unbelievable difference, and Collins defending for Zigics goal was the individual worst piece of defending i've seen since Ridgewell played for us. And the sad thing is, Davies and Beye are actually even worse. Shorey was also poor and so was Knight. Mons only decent defensive signing in 4 years were Young and Cuellar, and he wouldn't play Young. Lescott is reported to be unhappy, I would start the rebuild with him at the right price. He can play centre and left back.

He's always played with a bit more weight than other players but this season he looks two yards short of pace and looks exhausted far too early in the game, either time is catching up with him or he's doing something in between training sessions that he wasn't last year.

He can't possibly still be hungry. Maybe it's comfort eating.

I don't get it.

This site is always pining for a return to the good old days. We get an overweight centre half and all anyone does is bloody moan about it. No satisfying some people.

I think he's still hungry, judging by the size of the fat shit.

Pedant alert.
If you are referring to the leisure craft seen on the wonderful and historically interesting canal system in the midlands, they are called narrowboats not barges !

I think Dunney needs his own song to cheer him up.

How about a variation on the Kaiser Chiefs, with "I predict a diet"

He's being slated for his abysmal fitness which is his fault. I'm a fat bastard and I realise that it is my fault and will take abuse for that. Difference is I'm not actually costing my team points or getting paid £50K per week for being a professional athlete.

I bet he's having a breakfast dinner or whatever that bloke Murphy called it everyday.

That's unless you had a chocolate eclair hanging out of your back pocket.

I will always support our players, but when its clear that someone is making crucial mistakes due to his obvious lack of fitness then he is fair game.

He was doing so well
But even then you could tell
He liked a pie or three

But then three became four
Then considerably more
Now his arse is the size
Of a small country

And everybody sings "ba ba ba da..."

Someone left the cake out in the rain
And that fat fucker Dunne has eaten the lot

In all fairness Collins hasn't done much better than Dunne... the pair of them need to sort their act out because they're both not playing very well atm. Can't wait to see Cuellar back in defence.
Title: Re: Dunne's Glimpse of the Obvious
Post by: nicardinho on December 06, 2010, 10:17:34 PM
Can't wait to see Cuellar back in defence.

We spent the whole of last season asking for Cuellar to be dropped! Warnock needs some serious firecrackers up his arse, while Collins and Dunne need to stop showing why we were allowed to sign them so easily. It's not just the defence unfortunately. Someone needs to tell Downing how to put a cross in (note: first man/goalkeeper doesn't count Stewart, sadly) and Carew and Ireland need confidence desperately. The young 'uns aren't doing too bad though to be fair.
