[quote][cite]Posted By: Carter[/cite]This is nothing short of daft, Grant Basey will get a game at every other side in this division and pace is an issue yes? Stuart Pearce was the paciest left back yes? Basey should be in the side on the strength of his left foot alone and he gives a shit chaps[/quote]
Utter drivel. Basey is limited and will never play higher than he is right now
Football is all about opinions old son, Basey in my opinion is far better than what we have in that slot currently and he is our player who will only get better. Besides that he can hit a dead ball which no other member of the squad seems any where near capable of doing
whatever basey's ability or lack of it is, i cannot believe the stick he is getting on here from some of the same people that say things like ' i don't care if they are not the best, as long as they give, and are 100% cafc'.
you only had to see how distraught basey was after derby to know he cares.
still, i hear danny mills has retired so perhaps some of you should champion the idea of him playing left back.
He's been compared to Gareth Barry as being a similar type of player, though I can't see him being anywhere near as good, I can see him developing in a similar way. Barry has been at Villa for over 10 years and in the last year or so has started to really show his potential for them, and reach his peak. Basey will probably be similar, he's never going to be a star for anyone, and probably won't be at his very best until he's 28 or so.
He's useful for us to at least have on the bench for his crossing and set pieces, and that he can cover in a few positions. McEveley is the better player at the moment so should play.
