In the sea of shitness of the last few years I just have no idea why the one player who can hold his head high throughout once again becomes the scapegoat

In what world is Hutton a left sided centre half?  Crazy. At Millwall yesterday at the end he came over but I think he was getting some stick, I couldn’t see to much, but gave some stares for a bit and walked off

Started last season as our fourth choice right back and ended up being our best full back by a distance. Did a very decent job at left back for a lot of last season luckily for Bruce, crucial mistake v Fulham aside. Like Jedinak, this seems a season too far though.

Harsh to have a go based on yesterday.

Was shit, is shit and will always be shit.

I'll never understand the worship this bloke gets from some.

If I didn't know better i'd swear it was a wind up.

That's a bit rich given your worship of Bruce.

I guess the "caring" part shows up more because we've had so many players who blatantly haven't given a shit about playing for us and have coasted through games without breaking sweat.

Hutton joining Villa coincides nicely with us being shite. He's a clogger, a hoofer, a terrible footballer who somehow has achieved cult status, no idea how but in my eyes he'll always be shite.

i love the Scottish Cafu stuff as much as the next fan but its all just smoke and mirrors really - a courageous run here, a well judged pass there (or thereabouts) but the reality is, for all the puffed out chest thumping, he basically contributes less than a fire lighter at a Ku Klux Klan cook out. A season too far, thus far, for Alan.

The Scottish Cafu has seen off more managers than any other Villa player I can think of.  That’s five sacked now isn’t it?  He isn’t very good but his work rate and apparent ability to care have blinded too many.  So many goals over the last seven years have been accompanied by Hutton jogging back into the area, or sitting on his backside next to the bloke who scored.

Really though the fact that Hutton has been one of our better players in the last year says a lot about the level of the rest of them, and why we have only finished in the top half of any division once while he’s been here.  The sooner we have a team that’s too good for him to get in, the better.

He's a walking summary of Bruce's shit reign. Not his fault obviously, but nonetheless if the best that can be said of him is that he's better than Taylor, Richards and a young kid in Bree that isn't really a massive compliment.

"As long as you roll your sleeves up and have a go, that's all I ask." No mention of actually being good enough.

Too many right backs? Hutton out of contract? FFP an issue? Give Hutton another contract then loan out a perfectly adequate right back in De Laet while still paying some of his wages as well as loaning out a promising kid in Clark. Mental.

Very average  player who gives 110% but appears to be the cousin  of some famous  ex  player.  He does have his moments occasionally to be fair.
