Tom22709 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Really good defensively, his positional awareness is spot on, clearly a seasoned pro and very vocal. We caught united offside loads last night which is a very good sign. Only qualm I’ve got with him is he’s sloppy on the ball, but that can be worked on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnsleyOwl96 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Let’s hope jos can coach van aken and improve his defensive game, so far I would be starting venancio over van aken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike312 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I think he's doing ok. All defenders make mistakes. I didn't realise we'd only loaned him. I also think Van Aken will turn out to be a really good defender given the right coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
York_Owl Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Would we be happy with Venancio and Lees as the right sided CBs and Van Aken and Pudil as the left sided CBs with Hutchinson in the mix as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van Aken just needs to get to know the league and wise up a bit. Jos will make a player out of him, he has all the attributes (well apart from he could do with hitting the weights a bit).

Shetland Owl Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Turning out to be a good player now he has been given a chance. I like the way he is always vocal as well, we need some like that, think he was captain at his last club and this shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the mighty wednesday Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 It is a bit early to make a proper judgement but Venancio was noticeably more vocal on Friday. He and Pudil have a chance to make the position thier own with Loovens being suspended. I agree that this should be Loovens last season and hopefully he will only be a back up from now on. We were just as organised after he went off playing a different system and he is making too many very similar week late tackles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
