I am a fan of his but he never really got a chance with us but then I don't think he was ever really a wide player. My memories of him at Villa were at his best through the middle. Hopefully he'll show what he can do at Wolves. Good luck to him I say. Interesting that it is lambert taking him but he did have wieman playing wide right at villa, we could only find opportunity at wide left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACKWORTHRAM Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 He has had a chance. Played under 4 different managers who see him in training every day. He is obviously doing something that isn't good enough. Otherwise surely we would have started and had a run of games under at least 1 manager.

No.... but you will probably call him one. As for Vydra, the wider forward positions suit him better than the Number 9 role. So its hardly turning him into something is it? Bang on. Our system doesn't require wingers and never really has. They're playmakers. Most of the time receiving the ball to feet looking for clever passes to make 40 yards out. Very rare you'll see them with chalk on their shorts! The ultimate one that comes to mind - Simon Dawkins (I miss you, my friend) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admira Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Happy to move him on and get some game time under his belt. If he does start performing, hopefully we've learned from the ridiculous recall clause we have with Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wouldn't be able to recall him anyway until the end of the season - it has to be in a transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I might be in the minority but I liked him. He was arguably our first choice winger going into the season before his iniury. He brought something else to the squad and was very direct in terms of his running with and without the ball, something we have missed since Ward left. Good luck Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeadlySaul Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hard worker with plenty of pace, but had awful ball control and poor end product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok maybe with a view to giving him exposure and get his mojo back, then make a decision in the summer on whether to keep him based on his performances. Or at the moment with lack of play time his value is not great. If he performs at Wolves, his price will go up. Great man management either way I say. He could also have asked for this, given his lack of game time here. I feel that we are looking to clear some salaries off the list , makes sense if we are looking at new players whether loans or permanent signings.

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Arguably been a better prospect that vydra up to now....Will no doubt fit into wolves system under his old boss..Good luck to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be happy with Russell & Camara for the rest of the season. But in the summer we have to improve this squad. I'm surprised we've let him go to be honest we are lacking in decent wingers. Ibe loan would be less of a risk than spending money on Sako doubt we could pull that one off though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needles Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Complete waste of money. Bang average and uninspiring except for that game at Hull. We'd have been so much better off keeping Jamie Ward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needles Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 While I'm at it, Camara can do one as well. Flatters to deceive, occasional moments, but not the full package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PodgeyRam Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Simply didn't have the technique to play well out wide and he's not good enough to start as a lone-striker. Someone thought 'oh he's quick, we'll sign him' without taking into account technical attributess. He was a Pearson signing before Pearson was here - hence why he liked him so much in pre-season. Seems like a nice enough guy and I wish him well, but like @RadioactiveWaste he is yet another player to add to the pile of those unable to improve on Johnny Russell. The next winger/wide forward brought to the club will probably be a Dawins type player, someone who can comfortably take control of the ball on the half way line and move inside with it.
