Begs the question about de Laet's long-term future. I wonder how his rehab is going.

If I am reading it right it says he had a clause allowing him a one year extension which he has decided to use. If that is the case it was out of our hands.

Personally I am pleased, he shows an exemplary attitude and is a good example for others.

I really struggle to understand why this "Hutton gives his all" myth persists among some supporters.  If his regular ambling back to his own half after another futile forage down the right is anything to go by he really really doesn't.

Me too, he's been excellent of late. His attitude has always been first class since we signed him, but often his concentration has let him down.

I don't think he's a very good player at all but you can't knock the guy's effort. I think another 1 year deal is fine.

Me too. SB said he's the first in every day and trains every day like it's his last.
Might not be the best right back in the world but at least he's committed unlike some.
Bacuna for one...

I've given up on that argument, in the last couple of weeks we've had a group on here who have complained over and over again about our top scorer but are praising a guy who has wasted more possession than any player I can think of because at least he runs a lot and has had a couple of performances that have been a bit better than the crap we normally see.

Who is this group of Kodjia bashers who like Hutton?

Personally I like Kodjia, he's been excellent and we certainly missed him in January. Hutton has always had a good attitude, in that area he can't be faulted.

How many other right-backs will he have faced down by his testimonial year in 2021.

They came, they saw. They couldn't oust the the wild boar of Pollockshaws.  He is indomitable.

Dreadful footballer though.

 I will be glad when Hutton is no longer at Aston Villa. Indeed, I will put him to the very back of my mind, along with the past decade of Aston Villa history. He doesn't register on my Villagraph.

I had a theory that it's Hutton's shadowy hand behind our fall from grace, deliberately sabotaging us so we fade at the same rate as his limited prowesss, and he never has to leave.

It's not just a group on here, if you attend games you will know that is a majority of the crowd too. He has won people over due to his attitude. In an era when we have have employed so many wasters and con men he stands out as somebody who plays like he gives a fuck. Lack of ability can be forgiven in a way that lack of application never can.
