Ashley Westwood - Sold to Burnley

[Jimbo]

Edit: sorry, wrong thread. Obviously obsessed.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38930981 Westwood claims he was 'rescued by Burnley'.

"I wanted to give it one more go at Villa because I felt I deserved to try and get them back up, but it wasn't meant to be,"

"Thankfully the gaffer here has come in for me and as they say rescued me and I'm back in the top flight now."

He'll probably be a Championship player again sooner rather than later. Nice bloke but just doesn't have the ability to play at the highest level.

Dyche is no mug.  It will be interesting to see how he gets on.  I suspect he will do ok.

He's just bought Westwood. The man is a fucking balloon.

Lowton starting week in week out and looking very comfortable all season in the premier league?

Rescued you?

Weve been rescued from your shit floaty corners, square and backward ten yard passes, pointing and having the physical presence of an 8 year old girl

Precisely. What an arrogant worthless bastard.

In fairness he was generally derided here so it's a bit much for us to expect him to look back fondly.

I was being fair when I described him as an arrogant worthless bastard.

Give the guy a break. He's been lambasted for 3 years so you can't blame him for thinking thank f**k that's over. Works both ways.

Come on what with all these new signings we havent worked out who our new hate figure is yet. Ashley Westwood is our default setting.

[villan from luton]

The guys confidence was totally shot and just reading some of these comments make you understand why. He really was not a bad player, probably not what we needed in the latter stages. I recall arguing with someone at Brighton when he was given a hospital pass and lost out, the guy started giving him grief and it was totally Amavis fault with the pass. Sean Dyche is certainly not a balloon as mentioned above, he is a bloke who knows how to get the best out of his players. I read a local newspaper reporter saying Westwood came on with 15 left last week and made an impression on the game. I agree it was best for both parties for him to go, but I don't agree he is a poor player

Yep.

Been lambasted for being shit along with many others

he didnt get a quarter of the shit that bacuna got and when he did get stick after preston away it was deserved

[stubbsyandy]

Ash may have disappointed us but is not arrogant, in fact a more honest bloke you could not meet..he has been derided by many people on here for years, and even though he wasn't performing there is no need to get so personal.
I wish him no ill and the best of luck.
Let's get behind the players we have now
