KaKa Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Emre Can is such a classy player man. Looked really good in midfield once moved in there. Can't believe he doesn't play in midfield ahead of both Henderson and Lucas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lambert is still here come the weekend, I tell you this, sell everything you own and put it on us to go down. In fact, I'd be tempted to say put it on us finishing bottom.

Trumpet Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Emre Can is such a classy player man. Looked really good in midfield once moved in there. Can't believe he doesn't play in midfield ahead of both Henderson and Lucas. To be fair, he is one of the main reasons the defense hadn't conceded a goal in open play for 8 matches until today. Can't see Rodgers disrupting a finally settled defense. Really sucks with Lucas (our 2nd best performer after Can in the good run) injury and the awful run of games coming up. Was at work during the game. Saw the highlights, amazing how seamless Ibe's transition from being a bench player at Derby to starting wingback in two massive games has been. He's been very good in both games ! Hull and QPR with massive wins...hope this inspires Burnley to pull a shock tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Had the privilege of watching Adebayo Akinfenwa in the flesh tonight. He went in with a studs up two-footed lunge, scuffed an effort with the outside of his boot that trickled out for a goal kick and managed to loose a boot making a clearance before he was booked for taking an eternity to trudge off when substituted. What a man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Villa have scored the fewest goals in the league, only 5 teams have conceded more (which includes us). They are now losing games against teams around them, today was a massive game for them. It all points to one thing. They have to turn things around fast, I'm not sure they will be able too. The thing with Villa is that unlike us I can't see many players who are good enough staying around, they usually do ok with bringing younger players in so it would likely be down to them being good enough to bring them back up.
