Looks a poor man’s Sidnei Tavares

He was 3rd choice last season, and only made his way back up as Cooper was weak and just went along with his welsh friend.

So Ruud spoke to Maresca before joining who never played him, and the only coach he's brought with him is a goalkeeping coach. Big red flag if he just goes along with picking Ward, show some authority and make a decision.

Why? He was never going to be used in any situation, we even preferred to play Coady there who hasn't been a midfielder for well over a decade

He was never going to play in any situation, waste of a space that should have gone to Alves Monga or Evans. Potential over physicality for me.

Still promoting physicality rather than talent, there's not an instance where Cartwright will be used. Alves, Evans and Monga all more deserving of a place on the bench

Monga and Evans are at the point they're too good for U18's, as Alves was when we carried on playing him..

Cartwright is no better than Lewis Brunt was, he'll do well to make it at league one level like he has. It's about time we promoted talent rather than physicality.

When has Aston Villa vs West ham ever been a good watch? Those Saturday games are a waste of time, two 5/6-0 home wins.

If Salah keeps scoring he could equal Vardys record against us 😬

Wouldn't pick these 3, a top 6 club at home vs a minnow is always a routine home win. If it was the other way round yes, but it isn't.

That's more than Enzo had before he sidelined players he wasn't having, Ruud needs to do the same. If the squad is exactly the same on Tuesday I'm concerned

A good manager should only work with those he rates and fits into what he wants to do, banish all those he doesn't to the u21's and move on. This is what Enzo did, and he made these decisions very early on.

As long as Ayew is around starting games we’re not rid of Cooper

Going all out for the nil

And should they continue to play Ndidi as an AM they can have their P45's as well

His all british starting 11 does nothing for me either, just because he's got a fancy name doesn't make him exciting. They played well at our place last season but it was mainly Mikey Johnston who stood out that day

Seems to do well without getting promotion, but his team reads like a Steve Bruce or Sam Allardyce side 1 Palmer 4 Styles 14 Heggem 3 Holgate 2 Furlong (c) 22 Johnston 27 Mowatt 8 Molumby 31 Fellow 18 Ahearne-Grant 9 Maja Spaniard who is not one for foreign flair

He couldn't get Chelsea to score either, averaged a goal a game

One of Petty's first Villa boys

All those for Moyes, he loves a meathead striker and would play Ayew over Vardy.

One season wonder, if you can even call it that in the Greek league

We’re stuck with Cooper now for December, only a 1 goal defeat will be seen as a positive

Cooper wasn't having Ricardo or Fatawu anyway, if anything it means he'll get less grief off the fans so he's probably not arsed he can pick his preferred team now
