    I don't think this player will grow on me... he seems like an average ligue 1 player... he and Pardew might have something naughty going on <laugh>

    Same as usual, looking OK at going forward, frightened to beat his man and lazy with not chasing back.

    This. He also seems like the player who can play a blinder in one game but fade away in the next five or so.. #inconsistent and frustrating to watch.

    in the final 3rd when we look dangerous he stalls or hesitates then Villa are safe again, that's frustrating.

    He's fairly poor. Doesn't offer much offensively or defensively. He shows glimpses (I swear he did a flip-flap and beat his man in that half) but not enough to be consistently starting. If he ever gets going, he could be our best player. Big if though

    Marveaux has a good first touch, pace and actually has end product... playing him is too logical for league one cast off Alan Pardew.

    Stephen Warnock is playing with an ankle injury but the pain is hardly a distraction when Obertan is against you.

    Obertan beat warnock a few times just hesitated at the opportunities to cross first time... Pulled a decent one back for Ba in first half... I think he will improve with confidence but also think he will be unpredictable ala Martins...

    To be honest he was better both offensively and defensively but still needs to work on his crossing and decision making ..

    i think as thegame went on Obertan was always there for an attacking option , and i really think he will also improve with more matches

    Did you watch today's game? Obertan's crossing was poor and defensively he offers nothing but he was skinning everybody down his flank all game. One time he even got the better of 3 players.

    I thought he played well today. Offered more than jonas too.
    I thought Tiote looked better today too.

    I think he's done reasonably well in all his games, however don't think the end product is there yet.
