Kortney Hause (on loan at Watford)

[Rudy65]

Was involved in car crash. Totalled his 180k lambo by crashing it close to a school in aston.

Luckily he wasnt  injured and no one else was hit.

£180k?! How much are we paying him?! He's a back-up defender. The world's gone mad. I've just sold a Ford Fiesta and I get/have to do my job every time! Most days. If it suits me.

I was thinking that myself!

Here's a pic of his car at the scene

I always thought driving in flip flops was never a great idea

On the plus side, saw this tweet which I thought was very, very funny:

He was more than that for the winner at Old Trafford.

Was he at fault? Presumably a ban will follow.

If it was Mings in his he'd definitely be at fault.

[Demitri_C]

Sorry but yesterday showed why he has limited game time. He hesitated for second goal and that cost us. Mings would have hoofed that into space.

Keep him around until summer then release him as he isnt good enough at this level

[JUAN PABLO]

hes good in the air .on the ground not so.

[ChicagoLion]

It is extremely difficult to not play for weeks and then expect to be up to standard.
He did what Mings did last week, he stood and watched a player get a free hit on goal.
One of the most basic defending is to always be goalside of the attacker.

[eamonn]

With Tuanzebe gone he's now next choice in if Mings and Ezri are injured or suspended. It's a pity he's so shit with the ball at his feet though.

I celebrated like a mad thing when he scored against Man United
and he’s performed at a decent level at times

But this will sound harsh but I’ve never taken him seriously as a Premier League footballer

I didn’t think he was good enough when we were in the championship never mind the top league
For me it beggars belief that he is our first choice back up at centre half he simply does not have any ball skills he can’t control the ball he literally falls over it at times and you can forget about him trying to play out from the back

Sorry to say this because he seems a decent lad but for me He’s right up there as being one of the worst central defenders I’ve ever seen at Villa

I still loved his goal against Man United though just because I don’t think he’s a good footballer doesn’t stop me celebrating a Villa goal no matter who scores

Agreed on his limitations with the ball but Hause is far from one of the worst central defenders at Villa. He is an absolute monster in the air and has been a very good squad player for us across two divisions.  Understandably rusty at the weekend and likely the championship would be a better fit for him. He's Mings backup and I'm not sure we would get much better to be fourth choice CB.

[Brend'Watkins]

What about that horrendous back pass to Emi that could easily have been an Own Goal had Emi not been alert? That shouldn’t happen at any level let alone this. He will for ever be remembered for the Goal V Man U but most of his contribution will be seen as adequate or less than.

[Footy-Vill]

Vs Man Utd
Came on right side of defence
Solid and been working on his passing as sprayed a few delightful passes out wide to Digne I think only once he kicked it out.
Defended well and holds the area and space able to clear from corners imposing his defensive presence aaerially.
Kept Cavanni at bay and quiet.
