Match Thread | Aston Villa vs. Man City (21/12/24)

[Blu1]

Same pep tactics, :-(

Beginning to think he wants to be sacked

 

[madloaf]

One of the pundits on 5live said he looks permanently worried. Like he's thinking has he left the gas on at home when he's playing?

He's completely invisible and has been all season.

 

[TinFoilHat]

15? We might be better at rugby, but not with our injuries.

Get points for blasting the ball over the bar in that as well.

 

[Don Karleone]

At least he's fucking trying

 

[East Level 2]

We need a 8 new players that would walk in our starting 11

I'd be happier if we got some that could run into our starting 11.

 

[Paul1970]

Been abit harsh on Haaland tbh as he’s getting nothing from this team and if it carry’s on he may look elsewhere . Just play to his fucking strengths

 

[stan bowles]

Just get it passed quicker CIty...it's far too slow and easy to play against. No questions being asked at all.

 

[Semper aggressus]

SPEND SOME FUCKING MONEY CITY.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Jack is the only one trying

He is playing ok but his end product is dross.

 

[Scottyboi]

Stil 13 points off safety, gonna be a slog!

 

[N1985]

Why was I harbouring a belief all morning that today was going to be different, that last week was the kick up the arse that we needed?

It's the Blue in you pal. It never leaves you.

McCoist talking absolute bollocks as usual

 

[ufo]

You are consistent I will give you that :)

haha

 

[VOOMER]

These are the consequences when your second-highest scorer is a defender. It’s not about the lack of pressing or Rodri missing—it’s because our offense is terribly finished apart from Haaland. Ask yourselves, which of our offensive players, aside from Erling, would get into the starting XI of the likes of Real Madrid or Bayern?

Sniff, sniff, sniff

 

[balotellishaircut]

No they're all shit.

They've all won nothing at all.

Oh hello, you’re here to talk shite again, saying he can’t play a different way, yawn.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Why was I harbouring a belief all morning that today was going to be different, that last week was the kick up the arse that we needed?

Why would it be different? Same personnel same system same tactics same result

 

[Brewster's millions]

Everton 10/1 to win Boxing Day

Not for long.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Pep is becoming as much of the problem as our shit squad building has been. Same thing every week and he wonders why everyone slaps us up. At some point you have to question what the fuck Pep is playing at this season. He’s been performing every bit as poorly as the players. And I don’t know why.

 

[malg]

Do we actually have good footballers?

Some of our players need to step up. We need Foden and Grealish to start creating. Not sure at all what Gundogan is bringing to this team at present.

 

[dublin-blue]

Our static build up doesn't work anymore. We let teams regroup and make it impossible for ourselves.

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

I guess we just have to hope Jack gets a final ball right at some point because no one else is offering a thing right now
