I have total patience mate. (Not saying "mate" in a condescending way either)

I'm one of the only ones on here who's said to give Kachunga some time to prove his worth. Not sure where you've read impatience out of my post.

Evatt and FV have my full backing and I'm not expecting overnight success, but it's quickly becoming apparent that we need fresh bodies in the building if we're going to progress to the next level. Some current players will also have to make way. I don't think that's impatient, it's just a fact. 

Couple more transfer windows and we'll hopefully be in a better place. I'm saying it's a positive that we have space in the squad and not too many lengthy contracts on the books so we can continue to add to the team.

You could argue we are a better team than we're currently showing and we're just on bad form but we've had the same problems all season, not clinical enough and leaky in defence. Maybe that's the tactics, maybe that's the players but it needs fixing one way or another, and that will take time of course.

In the context of the last couple of years I'm satisfied with where we're at and of course we're lucky to have escaped from administration and landed on our feet with a good owner, I'm grateful for that, but there has to be some room for criticism of either players or poor performances.

An excellent post which currently reflects where we are.

It portrays the right balance of not writing-off the players we have and accepting we haven’t yet come out of our poor form from October, yet it highlights come January we’ll need some additions.

All done within the perspective of where we have come from and calling for patience.

If things carry on for much longer as they are, he may feel his best chance of league one football next season is with Vale!

Really?

It was a bit tongue in cheek!

Looking at the table, they're doing very well, and every chance they will he in league one next season.

From his perspective it might be a better option.

Oh he doesn’t,but when he does  his goal will be memorable, Bergson esque screamer

Not sure about a captain, at least not yet.

He seems quite reserved on camera, he could of course be very different off it.

Over our recent poor run, he's been less influential with the exception of the second half against Gillingham.

A lot of comments around us being "sussed"- for me, much of this is around stopping him.

Against the Gills, they sat back second half, we got on the front foot and he was doing his thing again.

He did actually have a shot then remember, but it's still coming down!

I assume we must all brace ourselves for an avalanche of over-baked media anout "Stevie Gerrard's Aston Villa".

Oh dear.

He shot the other week from 1 yard out and put it over the bar.

I remember taking the piss out of the Gooners when (I think) Overmars did it from a similar distance.

That wasn’t a shot, he’s a born defender, tremendous clearance that.

I'm convinced that if he'd stood still, rather than reacting and trying to kick it in, that he'd have had more success!
