He is absolute proof that appearances for the top clubs guarantee you England caps and that England managers hardly ever look further than the top 4 clubs. What is astonishing, is that anyone at Man Utd thought he was any good in the first place.

I think today we saw definitive proof that Westwood is better than Cleverley, and that they play in the same position in the same way. Cleverley was pretty exciting at Wigan, but he's not playing like the same player any more.

Cleverley is shit. Not constructive perhaps but if we spend 20p on this dick it's 15p too much.

Well you say that, but I thought that about Bertrand last season, and look how he's doing under a proper manager.

Fair point

Cleverley would be better going back to Man u and then getting loaned out again next season. None Villa fans will think we as a club, are simply shit, so it cant all be Cleverley fault

I agree Risso, there's definitely a good player there in my opinion but he needs inspiration from a decent manager.

I still think he's ok, not quite what I expected mind but that might be to do with the way we're set out to play?

Cleverley is no better than El-Ahmadi. Average at everything. Not good at anything particular.

BBC web site has gossip from the Daily Star that Cleverley will go to Everton. For once I hope the Star has got something right  ;D

Exactly right.
Yet another 'functional central midfielder' who does nothing to influence the game going on around him.

He has a bit of pace unlike KEA, but then he lacks his touch. I've found watching him deeply uninspiring.
