Barry Bannan-What does he do ?

[Tom_Mc9?]

I think his corners looked threatening on Tuesday every time. Maybe his game does need him to go back to basics as has been pointed out, but I think him and Ireland are essential at the moment as they are our only creative players.

The biggest problem I have with Bannan is how many times the word 'Hollywood' is used every time he is discussed, fucks me right of, lazy posting

They could sum things up in a simple, easy manner, but instead they go for the 'Hollywood' statement.

Exactly.

He's more Pebble Mill

[Rip Van We Go Again]

He loves Birmingham you know.

I'm not totally convinced by him although I am more impressed with him in recent weeks, this is the season he needs to grasp the nettle and cement his place in the side - he is certainly showing signs of getting there which is more than can be said for albrighton.

My opinion is we are a much better team when he plays. Bannan and Westwood have the makings of a fantastic midfield pairing.  He is much better defensively than he is given credit for and often nicks the ball away on the edge of our own area.

What I love about him is when he picks up the ball at the edge of our box, he'll play a tidy one-two and try and build something. His calmness and confidence is first rate.

Will he make it? The jury is still out for me but I think Lambert is the perfect manager for him, somebody he admires, will listen to and seemingly has confidence in him. His height is no longer an issue, it's more about his attitude and  determination to keep working on his game. Once he feels he really belongs in the first team I think we'll seen him relax a little and really develop into the player we all want him to be.

C-C-C-Can't tackle- Short-arsed too.
Tries his best-gives his all
Great crosser-good on the ball
Is he good enough some say he's pants

I like him but dont like his hollywood passes

[Percy McCarthy]

Perhaps Wythall would be better? It's near Hollywood.

[Dante Lavelli]

Percy said he was the best player he had ever seen in the reserves.  I will agree with him.  Anyone who has followed the junior teams will have seen him do amazing things and do very well against people like Jack Wilshire and the like. 

I like what I have seen recently, him and westwood really try to dictate the play and Ireland links well ahead of them.  Personally I think he's cut out a lot of the Hollywood passes and look forward for these "amazing things" to start happening soon.  Understandably I think he's concentrated on winning the trust of the manager and players but once that's done and we're winning a few more I hope he'll let loose a bit more*.

* Yes I'm always an optimist.

I'm in Orlando at the moment, and going to Hollywood Studios tomorrow, might take a bit of spray paint and re name it
