Fenham Mag Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I like him for his no nonsense approach and his eye catching tackles - that won't work in the PL though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Didn't think when we signed him he'd end up being preferred to Hanley. He looks like a competent enough defender and the sort of squad player you'd want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I like him for his no nonsense approach and his eye catching tackles - that won't work in the PL though. He's comfortable with the ball at his feet too. More than Hanley and Lascelles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Aye, sure Brummie said he'd looked more comfortable in midfield than in defence so it makes sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 He's better than any defender Villa have got by the looks of it though. Mugged them off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Saw someone on Twitter say he looks eerily similar to "Touchy Hutchy". Can't unsee it now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Been very good, he's outstanding in the air - barely loses a single header all game. Think he's been a very astute signing, considering a lot of us doubted it when it was made. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 He's better than any defender Villa have got by the looks of it though. Mugged them off. Strong chance Rafa's methods agree with him and he's improving as a result. What is he 25? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I think we've got a very good collection of centre backs for the first time I can remember in years considering the level we are playing at. The two who have started the last couple of games are outstanding in the air, and decent on the ball. I haven't seen much of Hanley but he hasn't done much wrong when he's played, and Mbemba has been class at times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes a nice change to have options there rather than 2 fit centre backs and then no one as has been the case for the last 2 or 3 years. Plus we've had shite centre halves for years now up until this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Best signing of the summer for me so far, from pretty low expectations, the guy has been class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Best signing of the summer for me so far, from pretty low expectations, the guy has been class. Ritchie? Gayle? Wouldn't say he's had a bigger impact than at least these 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
