Villa mate says he’s got a bit of Grealish about him. Few more tricks though. Doesn’t sound one to track back or tackle so imagine he will be played further up in the “Bright” role.

Obviously we haven’t seen him yet but CAMs aren’t known for their work rate. Westbrooke and Shipley have been a huge part to our good start, not just the scoring and assisting goals but mainly their work rate has been phenomenal. Seems odd to bring in a player and then immediately play him out of position.
Westbrooke wasnt great against Rovers or Pompey. He's decent back up. If we have promotion ambitions we need better. Hopefully o'Hare and Allen will do the job.

Villa fan at work says he didn't look bad playing in the Championship for them and will be very good in league 1.

Anyone else surprised that we haven't taken another youngster on loan from Chelsea? After the success with Sterling i thought they would be keen to develop another one with us.

I think he wants to sign Clarke - I don’t mind Clarke actually despite all the nonsense on here
I never had a problem with him; only caveat is I haven't followed his career/performances/injury record since. If he was anywhere near when he left, I'd be fine with it.

From the sounds of this it might be that he even replaces Jobello for Saturday if he did pick up a knock and the midfield three remain the same, but long-term it sounds like he'll play in front of the two deeper midfielders.

Was just thinking that when it says he can play wide also.

It isn't Championship Manager. How would be playing a midfielder in midfield be 'out of position'?

Because there are different roles midfielders play?! By your logic, Makalele could play left wing? (my references need updating!). When you play a 433 you need the middle 3 to be industrious. Who knows, he might be... but a “CAM” just didn’t seem the highest priority.

Anyway, Robins knows more than me. PUSB!

Looks like SISU are going for it this year. Could be promotion or sell.....

You can talk about levels etc but Iniesta certainly wouldn't be described as "industrious", and from what I hear, I think he did okay in a midfield 3 ;)

We need him for cover at least, Westbrook runs himself into the ground, and needs the odd break.
Jobello falls asleep and loses his man.
Allen's Injury is taking it's time
Kastaneer is suspended, but looks like an impact sub player (heavy impact)
Shipley works very hard but lacks the tricks to unlock defences.
And if Kelly gets injured we are in big trouble.
So all in all he looks a great addition.

Haha fair point but I don’t think he could do what he did for Barca in league 1. Teams playing Barca in the Iniesta years just sat in their own half. They hardly needed a back 3

Hopefully this if Jobello is Injured
