Youri Tielemans

[chrisw1]

Either the news is piecing things together and concluding that because of his comments and he's not playing regularly, that something is wrong, and he must be leaving, or the player or agent has actually stated this.

Or it's been entirely made up by the most notoriously clickbait bullshit site on the internet.

Give it a rest Footy.

I’ve missed this patronising insight.  Said no one ever.

This is the problem teams like Villa have, real quality won't come to Villa to sit on the bench. So unless they're a massive step up and go into the team straight away always going to be problems. building the first eleven is pretty straight forward compared to building a strong bench.

Not sure that's completely true. Before the injury to Mings, there was no guarantee Torres was going to be a guaranteed starter at all.

I disagree, real quality would understand it’s a team game where you have to earn a place in the XI and keep that place by performing.

No player should be happy on the bench & would expect Teilemans to express that at any time & to Unai directly.

But again, let’s not forget this had been reported by the lowest (& most pathetic) of all sources.  If you throw a hundred darts at a board you are likely to hit a bullseye 🎯 occasionally.  That is football insiders level of credibility

[Paul.S]

A player not starting in the Premier League is unhappy are not really headlines or “insider information”. He’s been involved and has started a lot of the cup games and came on at Wolves. If a player has fallen out with a manager then he’s not going to be getting that amount of time on the pitch. He could have been taken off against Mostar but he kept him on and that says a lot more than some know it all on social media or wherever they like to write these days.

Ok if look past the speculation then let's us discuss why he hasn't yet made an impression.

A player may choose to voice his dissatisfaction indirectly in order to pressure a club to obtain better terms for playing time or a contract, although this news was released publicly last month and hasn't been played much since then we can all read between the lines their may have been a fall out.

What could be more of the case is the fall out from YT making comments and Emery having words about that.
I do wish there is a threshold for rumours and that there must be some evidence based for this news. In September at the last international break You're Tielemans made comments. Is this what caused a fall out with Emery?

"The situation is not pleasant. I told the manager that I came to Villa to play. He understands me, but at the moment, he prefers to play with his two midfielders from last season.He told me that soon the matches will come one after the other and I will have more playing time. I know this answer doesn't help me move forward, but what should I do? Whenever I have an opportunity, I want to take it. So far, I have started once, in the Conference League"

Footy it feels like you have come back just to agitate about Tielemans

We were doing that before you arrived with your distracting football insider rubbish.

[Footy-Vill]

Well Youri Made the comments and also I wasn't privvy to such talk as was on absence from discussion forum.

So do what everyone else does and read it.

As for him making the comments, how do you know that?!

[GordonCowansisthegreatest]

Christ. Three hours back and here we go.

I know. And he announced his return like we needed to really know.

Is it January already??

[Mister E]

Whatever may have been said, there's only one reason YT is not in the team more often: he's not good enough!
I was massively invested in him coming to Villa but I'm singularly unimpressed with him thus far. Get your shit together, Youri, if only to get Footy off the case.

Agitation, agitation, agitation, that's what you need,
If you wanna be a pest, and irritate the rest,
Agitation's what you need......if you wanna be a bullshit gossip breaker, yeaahhh!

[astonvilla82]

Can understand why people aren't happy, but FFS most of us would have got rid of half the team before Emery got hold of them,so I will leave it to Emery to sort him as I know Jack shit about players and tactics
