BACUNA

Looks a good signing, done well when he came
On his experience could be vital in the the run in.

What a win and massive 3 points, Southampton have 3 huge games coming up Manu arsenal away and spurs home, it’s a chance for us to pop a gap between the bottom 3 and us. #Believe

And Fulham after arsenal.

Massive win for us, two massive home games coming up

Tbh I thought we looked much better in midfield when Bacuna came on for Gunnarsson. Thought he offered energy and pace on the counter which we didn't have with Gunnarsson sitting. Was really happy with Bacuna and he almost scored a stunner.

Looked comfortable on the ball, good cameo.

I've never been Gunners biggest fan but he has done better than expected this season. I think he does a lot better with direct teams. Teams that like to pass it about he gets himself tied in knots.

Looks like Bacuna got a decent shot on him, sent a bullet at the keeper, gunarssons shot on the other hand is still rising.

Apparently we've only won when he's started, fascinating start I'd say

Makese sense he has been crucial and until Bacuna we have literally had no one to play that position.

Time will tell not rated by villa fans before he left and was playing for reading for a reason - we needed cover but I bet he was 4th or 5th choice lets hope im proed wrong :bluescarf:

Your right tbf but on today's performance its a good place to start. Hopefully he can kick on and be a valuable player.

agree with you 100% great win today we don't need any injuries or suspensions as the squad is thin and im 100% behind bacuna as I am all the lads :bluescarf:

What a horrible yet good time for him to arrive, so much togetherness in the locker room, hopefully he just gets absorbed into the family and instantly wants to work his socks off for the guy next to him. He seemed to be loving it tbh, fingers crossed we see consistency

Yes, but if you read the reports properly (and I have to say the self-styled Villa Troll alluded to it too) it wasn't really about Bacuna the player; it was more about the circumstances surrounding something he said when at that club at the time ;)

Thought he was excellent, the only player to come out to challenge their attacking players. We have not done this all season. We tend to sit back and let the opposition come into our area. This hives them a chance to shoot. So come on City's defence stop the opposition getting near our area. Well done Bacuna.

Yeah at least now we do and he certainly had a decent cameo. Hopefully we can stay up and bolster our midfield in the summer.

Interesting stat that if true. Bacuna is a good option all round the park and a good impact player from the 30 mins Iv seen of him lol
