    Do you judge a centre half on how many goals they score? Pearson would still be 4th choice centre back if he returned now.

    I know who I’d prefer between Pearson and Lindsay and it’s not Pearson.

    Let's face it. If anyone wants to buy a centre back off us they'd be absolutely crackers if that centre backs name began with an L

    One in two of all Lindsay's long passes miss the target and a quarter of all his passes overall miss.

    Surprisingly no mention in the press of any one coming for Pinnock. I think Lindsay is a far better prospect and at 23 has time to improve. In my opinion the bar should be set at £5 million.

    To be fair there we were apparently approached from Brentford in the transfer window that has only just past a few week since. If they wanted Lindsay I'm surprised they waited untill the window has just shut to decide.
    There is only 2 years age difference I think if a team were after a player for now pinnock has been our stand out center half this season.

    Lindsay will be the one who plays at a higher level in his career though.

    Best center back since John stones, can see him captain of Scotland in the future. Player of the season for me been faultless.

    Pinnock isn't eligible to play for Scotland

    Sounds as though some Villa fans think we pulled their pants down regarding Bree
    and they fear a repitition with Lindsay. Quite a number saying they would prefer
    it if they signed Tyrone Mings on a permanent, that way, they know what they're
    getting.

    Genuinely think Pinnock is the better centre half, it doesn’t mean Lindsay isn’t a good centre back or that he won’t be better then Pinnock in 2 years time when he is Pinnocks age, but as of right now if I was a buying club looking at our team then I’d be purchasing Pinnock.

    We should be exploring getting Bree back whether we go up or not.
