Match Thread | Aston Villa vs. Manchester City (26/10/25)

Admittedly their goal was a bit of a worldly with his wrong foot, but overall lucky it’s only 1 goal here. Pep to ring the changes at half time? If we’ve got any athleticism, aggression and a bit of guile on the bench, I hope so.
Anyway, at least it’s just the one goal.
 
You all know that Pep's call will be Kova on and we will have less threat to get back into this.

Awful half of football for us but still time to win this if we dare to make the positive changes.
 
So far this game has shown our frailties.

Can’t keep rodders fit.

Midfield is still not world class.

Defence is actually ok.

Far too reliant on Haaland for goals.

For me it’s always about midfield and we don’t have a great one.

Only 1 so we have plenty of time.

Said months ago we need 2 of either cherki, tiny or Mar to step up and grab a starting position.

Oreilly on for stones move gvardiol into the middle.

Mar and cherki on for any of the front players bar erling.
 
We have been shite since they scored.

Hopefully we have got the shit part out of the way and will improve second half. Need some changes but I don't think we will get them.
 
Square pegs in round holes. Questions need to be asked re the fitness and availability of our players as last season was a joke and this not much better re injuries this.
Both FB's who are not Fbs though Nunes has done okay. Midfield as weak as piss and zero creativity or end product from one of the worst set of wingers in the PL. Bobb dining out on a goal years ago v Newcastle and Savinho, just no point in having him on the pitch.
Cherki and Marmoosh at least sometimes offer something going forward, unlike the 2 wingers playing
