I think we need you to bring us together...Quote:

Thanks lads, I'll take that as a compliment as Bono looks the best of the three of them. However, I 'm beginning to look like Trimble with a memory like John Hume, and this is not meant to be an insult to John, just reality!
Only the 2nd time I've seen him play for Villa and already he's a better option for Ireland than Stephen Ward.
His best performance so far. Looked decent. Never really ventured forward but defended well. Ciaran Clarke had a great game for Villa. This lad is a real leader and will be a big player for Ireland. Hopefully Stevens will also keep improving.
Encouraging he's kept his place despite the return of Lichaj and Baker. Be interesting to see what happens when Bennett is fit again, who hasn't overly impressed since joining. Chance for Stevens to keep in the team and keep improving. Very pleasing to see another LOI player getting a Prem look in.
He was very quiet which is good enough for me!
Three Premier League starts in a row - Trap's lucky there's no squads to leave him out of until February.
Yes, against Man Utd, Man City and Arsenal. Not a bad introduction to the Premiership.Quote:

I think it was acknowledged back in August that march was a long way away in football to be played terms. THe hope that someone might emerge and others gain vital experience in the premiership appears to be coming to fruition. HOpefully Stevens keeps his place and builds on his gametime and experience. the only worry was whether or not trap woulD pick these players...
2013 might not be so bad afterall.
From the highlights it looked like Oxlaide-Chamberlain was able to get in behind Stevens a lot, but his scramble defence was good to avoid giving up any proper chances. Clark still looks a bit reckless but his last-ditch defending is superb. He's really in the Honey Monster mould.
He appears to have won over this section of the Villa support - looks like they already rate him ahead of Bennett. Hopefully Lambert feels the same way with Lichaj and Bennett returning to fitness.

Their limited ability to construct sentences(yes like myself...) stops me from getting too excited about their opinion of a footballer.
But lets hope they are right and he gets a few more games to prove his worth.
I'm beginning to believe that having the ability and getting a chance to play in the PL are far from related, possibly coincidental in many circumstances..
These couple of games will be a test for him ...... big game tonight and next saturday!
Gone off injured on 23 minutes. Typical
balls. Gone off injured.
Very unlucky. Hopefully he can bounce back quickly and get back in the team. Bennett's been unconvincing at LB and Lichaj is an RB.
It was a good piece of defending which caused the bloody injury. He tried to play on but couldn't thats the worrying part...
This unrelenting spate of injuries to prospective left backs could be a just simple case of Ward delving into black magic.
voodoo you think so?
What was the injury?
Don't know how bad it is, he walked off with a limp after a tackle.
If Trap was their manager, we would be sure to get an accurate diagnosis /prognosis in the PMI.
Villa fans are very positive about Stevens which is always good to see.

Left Villa Park with his leg in a protective boot according to that.
Ah crap. I hope he gets another chance, especially if the injury is bad.
Not much of an update but good to hear lambert saying he will wait on news of the injury before making any decision.

"“It was a blow because he was playing well. I will need to see with him later in the week.” That's a good endorsement so far. Fingers crossed for the lad, a good run and the last few games have been scoreless(boreless) draws for villa, so the experience can only be good for him.
Out for a few weeks with an ankle injury: http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/engli...red-for-villa/
balls.
No, it's his ankle.
Back in contention for tomorrow's game against Liverpool along with fellow left back Joe Bennett.
Misses the game with a virus. Bennett on the bench.
he needs to get sorted.lots of games coming up and needs to cement over the christmad period as its a great time to get into the side.
He wasnt playing against Chelsea in the 8 nil loss , lucky for him.
Back starting again today away to Swansea
