Match Thread Aston Villa (H) - Sat 9th Nov 20:00

[Modo]

Mac hasn't switched it on in a while. He's been leggy and a liability for some time. We overplayed him last season and he hasn't really recovered.

I know, but I there's a reason Argentina keep picking him and Slot too.

How many chances does Nuñez need

Many, but that was only a half chance

 

[Modo]

How many chances does Nuñez need

7....so 5 more to go

 

[Shadey]

Should be Nunez hatrick but how many times have we said that.

 

[Modo]

Bravo Jones, nice tracking back

 

[darkstarexodus]

I'll say this. We've given Darwin plenty of credit in recent weeks for his hustle and determination and forgave the fact that he wasn't scoring because no one was creating chances.

Today he's scored a lovely goal and missed a couple chances he should have done better on, but he's back to being a threat in the Oppo box.

 

[Mystic]

Nunez man, both simultaneously the reason we're winning, but also the reason we haven't yet won.

I wonder sometimes if that's not to his long term detriment. Szobo too. They're both well off their best right now and with Jones in good form we should make sure to get them some rest.

Was glad to see Szobo on the bench today (if for no other reason that he does my head in, but also so he can get back to his marauding best.). Macca could benefit from some of the same.

 

[dee]

Our press is really telling

 

[Hyena]

Gakpo needs to come on I think

 

[keniget]

Diaz has been poor today, get Gakpo on.

 

[Markeh]

we’re turning this into hard work

 

[darkstarexodus]

Lucky not to give a foul away v Tielemans on the edge of our box. Ref has been awful today.

If we had another decent mid, he'd definitely be on the bench.

 

[SummerOnions]

This ref is smoking 11 herbs and spices

 

[Tinto]

If Villa score, it's going to come from an error by us

 

[Modo]

Really hope we get another before Duran comes on.
It's written in the stars

 

[Tinto]

Bradley hasn't been very good since coming on

 

[Markeh]

bradley would be a fantastic shaggy at halloween

 

[darkstarexodus]

Really hope we get another before Duran comes on.

He's got a wolf like hunger when he comes on late.

 

[Markeh]

are villa actually gurning about how long that offside took? the time wasting cunts

 

[darkstarexodus]

How does it take so long to blow the offside whistle.

 

[Modo]

4 more to go

 

[Modo]

Lovely Konate

 

[dee]

Ibou has to be close to motm

 

[Hansern]

Jones hasnt been very good in the 2nd half

 

[darkstarexodus]

Virgil just absolutely bossing Bailey off the ball.

 

[SummerOnions]

Virg is just a cheat code

 

[jan]

Ok changed my mind ref is a dickhead as usual

 

[darkstarexodus]

Jones hasnt been very good in the 2nd half

None of the front six have
