Is there anything else you need to know before you hit the transfer market Steve?

Agreed with most of your points, VB, but I always thought Bacuna was shocking at full back. A loan right back until the end of the season is yet another thing we require in this trading period.

I remember your views of Bacuna at right back Sandie!Sandie wrote:Why do I have a feeling now that we'll be seeing a lot of Gabby during the AFCON period? I can guarantee one thing we won't be seeing in this case and that's Villa goals. The big selection clanger was playing Westwood instead of Tish.

Why do I feel that if you and I sat in a room with a computer and a telephone and a never ending supply of coffee, we could sort Villa's shortcomings in a few days? Our targets should be blo*dy obvious .... it should not be possible to approach the wrong players! Why do I fear that we will get it wrong again?

I like to think Bruce is too much of a straight talker to do that and I don't think he's stupid enough to ignore the gaping holes in our midfield. The question is only to be how they are filled.

It should never have been Sherwood's team, or Garde's team, or Di Matteo's team, or even Bruce's team .... it's Villa's team, and if each manager had remembered that and added just a couple of nailed on first team players to the team we wouldn't be stuck with the malfunctioning bunch of individuals that we have now.

That's more believable, but the two of them simple should not play together. Bruce was not happy with them, but that was partly down to him not accepting Westwood's total physical inability to compete in his area of the pitch.Sandie wrote:It seems that the stats going around about Grdner and Westwood were actually false. Actual figures were 41 and 30 touches respectively.

Gardner doesn't have the pace to cover the huge hole that Westwood leaves, as he charges around in large circles supposedly "pressing" the opposition. When he plays with someone stronger and with more discipline he will be okay. He played some decent football alongside Lansbury at Forest.Sandie wrote:Gardner has been fine when played alongside someone competent. Westwood seems to drag other players down to his level, however.
