Must admit I couldn't quite see what the fuss was in his first games and even soon after he came back from injury. But in recent games, his composure and reliability in keeping possession and winning it has been magnificent. He seems to be the only player we have who can look after the ball properly, consistently

So I'm not getting attached to him. Hope we can progress with him over the next year or two so we keep him for a while and get a good profit. Please don't sell him off so quickly, we can't be having this conversation everytime a player puts together a string of decent performances.

No doubt the 'big' clubs will soon be circling.......that was the best piece of business Gerrard did during his short tenure at Villa Park.....and on a free transfer is astounding!
When carrying the ball on the run for Bailey's goal, he looked up, carried it further and without breaking stride played the perfect pass through for Bailey's brilliant strike. That, to me is football at its best.
