I don't think he lost the ball once or misplaced a single pass. The sad thing is that one memory that stands out is him moving to receive the ball from a throw in and being able to pass it forwards.I am impressed by a throw in, that's how bad we are.I was impressed when he took a throw in. No waiting about, no looking for Benteke to flick it on, no, straight to a Villa player in space. It was brilliant.

How long until all the flair and genuinely exciting quality he showed at the weekend is a distant memory... Somewhere in a muffled threat comes a distant Scottish voice.. Pass it sideways ye little bassad and stop this dribbling past folk.... It comes to something when a really exciting new player my first thought is how long until Saint Paul ruins him.
On a more serious note, Gil got Holte End backsides off seats with some of the things he did and every time he was on the ball, it was exciting to not know what he was going to do.We have lacked that bit of off the cuff guile for a long, long time.

There's no doubting we are a poor team etc, etc, but these comments are just having a go for the sake of it.

Look at GabbyLook at BentekeLook at Nzogbia in Lambert's first season, some of the goals we scored he was terrific in driving us forward. Every ounce of forward skill and ability has been squeezed out of the side in his desperate attempt to make us more solid at the back, which fair play, we are, but he has got the balance so horribly wrong that players that looked like they would kick on are shadows of their former abilities, and that is saying something when you consider they were not actually that great to start with.
Look! Look! Look! A footballer!
