Agreed Ads.It's in less that ideal circumstances, but it could be a blessing in disguise.There are various reports that Fonz has been 'difficult' in training. Based largely on the NRC/ MON skirmish last year, Kevin Mac's reluctance to use him earlier in the season and GH seemingly also reticent.Could be a lot of second guessing going on with very little substance to back it up. But even if he is a shit trainer, he wouldn't be the first. Some players only come alive when the stakes are high and there is something riding on their contribution.He could have at least a month now to either make the position his own, or at least convince GH that he could be a useful option. Chances are GH will be bringing in his own players this Jan regardless (if he felt that he could get away without signing a forward or two I think that idea has been well and truly scotched - another plus). It sounds reasonable and balanced to say the Fonz could still feature even if he doesn't make an impression over the next four weeks - he is young enough after all. But I really wouldn't fancy his chances if he doesn't seize this opportunity. I'd wager that our frontline options could look quite different by Feb 1st and managers tend to give their own signings first priority.

its that bloody training routine houllier has brought in, the players are not used to it and as carew does fuck all anyway no wonder he is injured after doing a bit of hard work
its his big chance he has to take it, if not its the championship for him
But he might not get another chance to show it with us as, as has been said, GH must be looking to bring people in in January.
Carew in a Norweigan newspaper this morning reacting GH comments they he must prove himself for a new contract. Also suggesting GH ill prepared for Villa job.Beginning of the end for Big John.

Didn't Houllier swap Carew for Baros?
