1st time on here and looking through a few posts and people pointing out about giving Westwood a chance as he works hard this doesn't mean he is good enough just because he didn't have an attitude problem like a few last year (gabby, lescott, guzan, grealish etc) doesn't mean we have to keep him he simply isn't good enough to get us promoted yes he will do a job so will Sanchez but people seem keen to get rid of him, no mention also of getting rid of okore yet he was another last year refusing to sit on the bench.

Think you need to re read, if indeed you are responding to my post.
I never suggested to keep him, although the idea of keeping him is better than some of the proposed replacements, I said he deserves better from us.
That HE is not to blame for where we are, and that the constant insults and blame he gets is not warranted.

U May not of suggested to keep him but your happy with a team full of westwoods I'm not sure that would get us back to where we should be, I don't blame him for where we are simply saying he is not good enough like a lot more that people want out the door.

You miss what I'm saying, I said I would take a team full of his attitude and work rate than a fractured team full of pre madonnas that are self obsessed.
He never once was captured on the front page of a news paper, and has as far as I know has never been in one for anything accept football.
Yet we constantly berate him, but him in same bracket as gabby, lescott, and Richards.
This is unfair.
I would rather have effort, work rate and a 7/ 10 than flair, promise and a fractious team, getting 5/ 10.
I agree there are hundreds of better ability players out there, and I seriously hope if Westwood goes, we replace him with one.
But in my opinion Westwood does what he is asked to do, by his coaches, and never hides, as I've said many times he is not ronaldo or messi, and has never pretended to be, we brought him From Crewe.

You are missing what I'm saying work rate only is not good enough to get promoted, I don't put him in same bracket as Richards, lescott, gabby, bacuna, okore they have no respect for the club i'm simply saying he is not good enough doesn't matter if he came from Crewe or Real Madrid that's not the issue, the point being we need some quality in the side not average players that will make us a mid table championship side for the next 4/ 5 years.

As I've said before, and again.
I accept he isn't everyone's cup of tea.
But everything he does is as much as he can do!
Yet you, and others, blame him, ride him and berate him.
It is not fair, justified or correct, when there are others not not playing to the best of their ability, and fall under the radar.

Agree flackie.

Read previous message I don't blame him and never given him any stick for how he has played I have just said he is not good enough and work rate is simply not a great excuse to use to to back him, yes many others in a villa shirt were not good enough if not all last season, u could include gana and Sanchez in same category work hard but no quality I'm not pointing Westwood out, there are very few I would keep but 20 odd players will not be sold and replaced.

Think you need to read many posts from previous threads, possibly I'm tarnishing you with an undeserved brush.
Just one point, in my opinion, and I do accept I'm in the minority, of that midfield,
Westwood
Sanchez
Ghana
Veretout
The one from them I would keep, as you know would work hardest for the team, and despite what people say, the first thought has to be the team, is Westwood.
Might only do the dirty, ugly work, but if them, he does it best.

Yes team comes first might be good to see Gary Gardner back, I do agree what he does is total commitment just don't believe that's good enough for ASTON VILLA FOOTBALL CLUB quality is also needed if we are to return to top flight.
