Sherwood's spoken about turning Bacuna into a right back. Has he had to work on making him a left back this week?
Title: Re: The Mighty Aston Villa vs Swansea Match Thread
Post by: Toronto Villa on March 21, 2015, 02:13:06 PM
I hope this week he showed him videos of Maldini and Roberto Carlos
Title: Re: The Mighty Aston Villa vs Swansea Match Thread
Post by: RussellC on March 21, 2015, 02:14:19 PM
Surprised he hasn't stuck either Westwood or Sanchez in as Swansea will definitely play 3 central midfielders, but everything he's done so far has been bold. Fingers crossed for more of the same today.
Title: Re: The Mighty Aston Villa vs Swansea Match Thread
Post by: Reuben on March 21, 2015, 02:37:27 PM
Hope this doesn't become a Barry-taking-the-penalty question but is Vlaar not available?

I am glad he has stuck with Okore-Clark regardless.

While we are waiting for Villa to score, my uncle messaged me on FB to say that France are 500-1 against Engerland in the egg-chasing and I should put a pound on.

Please tell me it's a case of "gullible" is not in the OED! I was thinking of having 50 quid on that.

Yeah, way OTT. They haven't played that well - not got going in attack and a bit chaotic in defence - but boos? Each to their own, but that's uncalled for I think. EDIT: ah yes, I hope you're right Jimbo.

Thank you Southampton, so far. We'd be losing if it weren't for Clark. The attack keep on slightly misplacing passes, and Zog is doing his 'dribble away from teammates' routine, which is annoying. We've survived somehow, though, so hopefully the next half is our 'good' half.

So done pretty well to keep it even at half time. This lot are the best team we have played since Sherwood came on board so a challenge. I think we are a bit light in midfield against Shelvey and Sigourdsson however not sure what we should do hopefully Tim knows?
Title: Re: The Mighty Aston Villa vs Swansea Match Thread

Swansea have become such a good and consistent club in how they approach the game. We've had a number of years now of different managers/systems/tactics. That will be a key task for Sherwood to create a playing style and identity that is sustainable.

That is the best description of Weimann. Always eager but no reason or sense. Can't question his work ethic, just the fact that he isn't a PL player. Still i hope he scores :-)
