Shtanley Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Amazing. Genuinely chuffed for him, always been one of my favourite players and at one point I was gutted that he was seemingly going to have to leave the club in order to further his career and development. I watched countless u21 games 3 seasons ago and could never understand why he wasn't getting a first team chance. He certainly split opinion in our last 2 championship seasons but to see him replace Tomlin and be even better than him brings me a lot of joy. A perfect professional and should be given a serious contract ASAP as he is as key to this team than anyone else. Never imagined him as a striker mind you!

Davefevs Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 You’ll always be able to argue 1,2,3 players, but whoever picked that did a pretty decent job. Didn’t get sucked into to picking all Wolves players for example. I might argue....Bamba over Terry, or Doherty or Pinto over Fredericks, but you can easily see why they have been picked. Good to see Bobby get recognition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Bobby, even more ammunition to the 'Lj is a genius' camp. Well done both Don’t think that is true. Players form comes and goes at times. Players like Reid, Smith, Flint, Pack and Brownhill have been mostly steady. Others like Wright, Paterson and Bryan have been in kow form for a few weeks yet still play large portions of matches. Think that bit is down to LJ to change things until they pick back up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BanburyRed Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Delighted for Bobby - top man!

An atrocious pick for team of the year as he has missed roughly a quarter of the season through injury. Thought that was quite obvious in context of how I wrote it and in context of the comment I quoted. Obviously has been a fantastic player throughout his career and wasn’t atrocious when he has played in the championship. Though he was caught out quite a bit at the start of his Villa career.

Flint missed 5/6 games after being dropped because he was playing poorly.
