Left it a bit too late today imo but the performance has been miles better than last season.

 

[roy.or.r]

One good thing to come out of this is I can rewatch this game whenever I am unable to sleep. No sleeping pills needed.

 

[skillman]

Does rhe 8 second rule not apply to Villa?

 

[TFC]

How can 20 mins of Cherki hurt? We are absolutely bereft of creativity, give the lad a shot ffs

 

[Mancityus]

Another open header missed by Haaland. Next clear chance he might make it.

 

[madloaf]

Every cross has been defended well by villa. So bring on our attackers who work through the middle maybe.

 

[deano ou812]

No goals in this team

Bar obviously the big lad imagine if he gets injured

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Fuck off Reijnders. You’re getting right on my fucking tits.

 

[YatesA]

Get cherki on

 

[Semper aggressus]

Should have sold Savinho and Bobb, and gone for Eze and Semenyo.

 

[Bluewonder]

Doku immediate impact down the left, what the fuck was Savinho doing all game. Had the exact same opportunity.

Doku hasn't done anything Savinho didn't.

His crossing and general link-up play is equally poor.

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Cherki time finally

 

[stan bowles]

Reijnders needs benching for a few games. Just not up to speed yet with the demands of the PL.

 

[nico04]

Cherki needs more than 5 mins

Tijjani off Cherki on

 

[Norbert D]

Here’s a thought, instead of having Savinho on the wing doing literally nothing, why not bring a striker on, maybe we could get a goal.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Cherki's coming on

 

[bellsouth]

get cherki on for Reijnders

 

[Don Karleone]

 

[Ajm1985]

Only having 1 person who scores goals is a bit of an issue

 

[jollylescott]

We started with a poor team selection, and haven't really been at the races since then.
