Libor Kozak

[Malandro]

I think the main reason is he's shit

The main reason is that he's had a career-altering injury, in my opinion.
Not the greatest footballer but he's also not the player he was before he was injured.

It's a pity for the club and player.

How long left is his contract for Villa ?

I think this is his final year.

[Tony Erdington]

oh well, see ya

[AVH87]

Yes this is his last season. Unfortunately will have to go down as another big waste of money in terms of fee and wages over 4 years (although not all his fault due to bad luck with injuries).

[ASHTONVILLA]

Still would not be surprised to see him get a chance, as Gestede aside he the only 'target man' type striker. Thought he looked pretty good before the injury, has had a good attitude, and has scored plenty in the reserves.

We will need him come January when ACN kicks off.  Will be left with Green for Adomah, RHM for Ayew and Kozak for Kodija / Gestede.  Plus McCormack

I don't think he is a target man.  From what I've seen he's pretty crap in the air.

You could level the same at Gestede.

Don't be daft.

He's right, Gestede wins the ball in the air but he's actually not very good at heading the ball unless it's a flat cross he can run onto, he gives the ball away a lot more often than he flicks it to a team mate.  So he's less of a taret man than Kozak because we really can't play around Gestede, that's why we were so shit last season, we tried to use Gestede as if he was a Benteke-like pivot to play off.  As I've said before if you compare the games Libor played with those that Rudy played I honestly believe that if you swapped around the number of performances they each had we have been in with a real fighting chance of staying up rather than embarrassing ourselves with a humiliatingly low number of points.

Kozak might have been reasonable in his first season, but since then the injuries have finished him. His last outing was embarrassing.

Very similar to Gestedes last outing then, where he was very poor to absolute shite.

[robbo1874]

If he's still under contract and fit for selection, he deserves consideration, the same as any other player.

[SoccerHQ]

Well down the pecking order now...Gabby will probably make an appearance before he does!

I think he's the same as Okore...showed promise before horrendous injuries and he just can't get fitness up to the level required.
