Leandro Bacuna - Sold

[JUAN PABLO]

yes but at least he appears to be nowhere near selection, unlike this wankpot

only because hes injured ;(

[pauliewalnuts]

I thought Whelan looked good first half, but as someone else pointed out he was then basically left doing the job of 2/3 in midfield on his own. How Lansbury tired so much at his age i don't understand

Whelan was by far the best player on the pitch in the first half, I thought.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least to see Richards join Samba in defence tomorrow night.

I think the bookings of both Lansbury and Whelan had quite an impact on both their respective games. I agree I thought Whelan was the the far better player

Really, I thought he struggled to start with and faded, not terrible but nowhere near his performance in the Watford game. Just looked like he was lacking fitness

I thought he was excellent in the first half and swamped in the second until we got green on down the left to give him some support and an outlet. Whelan that is.

Bacuna was a bag of spanners and should be sold.There are some players that simply carry too much baggage to pull it back with the fans. Bacuna and Richards are in the same boat in that respect.

I agree Whelan wasn't so good for me was disappointed with him and I thought Elmo wasn't so good . Both though were better in pre season . Occasion got to them . Bacuna Scape goat but was expecting more from Whelan and Elmo

Elmo looked very average to me

Behave! I'm just going to assume that you don't know the meaning of "scape goat" because Bacuna deserves all the criticism that comes his way for such an inept performance. It was a genuine relief to see him subbed and I hope I never have to watch him "perform" in a Villa shirt again...although I imagine that will end up being wishful thinking.

[oswald funkletrumpet]

Elmo looked very average to me

I wasnt overly impressed, may be because he was up against his old side and they had him sussed

Looked for the early ball far too often and didnt want to take his man on

[Tuscans]

Reading ( guessing ) could be taking Bacuna by the sounds of things. Looking to get rid of some of leftover dross to get Snodgrass possibly?
