I don't understand - for weeks people on here were wanting him to be on the bench or to start.
Now everyone hates him!

I think that its frustration rather than hate. Against Rotherham, he came on, ran with the ball twice and was then MIA for the rest of the game

I like him, even if he has a lot to learn as a footballer. If we got him fit and he played 30 games this season he could be the difference between going straight up and play-offs (or missing the play-offs and being in them) as this division wouldn't cope with him.

However, if he thinks the division or Villa are beneath him he can go fuck himself.

I really think he might be better suited to athletics or working as a male model

Sounds like he hasn't got the application to make it as a top footballer.

As somebody said on Twitter, he's the new Nil Lamptey.  Bags of talent and somebody who will try to beat people all day, but not a team player by any stretch.

That'll be his Aston Villa predictive text from last season. It got so used to typing Nil

The bottom line is he can't be bothered with any of it, basically he has no future as a professional footballer, perhaps in another sport as other people have suggested!

Did he really ever want to come to Villa? Where all the injuries genuine? You have to question them now .......... he is no loss to us simply because he didn't play for us in the year he has been here

Have we ever wasted so much money before?

Some true some not ....big transfer fee plus the large weekly wage when added together ....... only Zog I would think was earning the same

For starters they were all here longer so cost us more money and many of them were on equivalent money. Balaban was on 20K a week 15 years ago for example.
