Villa Vs City Post Match Thread

Petty but how the fuck is their keeper allowed to hold on to the ball for 20seconds at a time? Pellers cost us that game not pulling yaya off earlier and not replacing him with nacho when he finally did.

 

[Bluewonder]

Inspired decision by one of the league's worst managers to play no proper against bottom of the league.

 

[El Ingeniero de Noruega]

There needs to buy a f big name striker in january. Sell f bony and cash in the few pence we get for him. Useless. Tixi i need a BIG NAME STRIKER PRONTO.......

 

[warringtonblue]

Handed them the initiative right from the first minute. Should have got at them, instead we gave them confidence and add that to Pellegrinis tactics we got what we deserved

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Iheanacho deserves more game time. He makes things happen.

 

[itisrising]

How?

This is why I don't get excited about youth prospects. Iheanacho will follow Suarez and Lopes out of the door.

 

[Phil1]

We should have scored at least 4 regardless of the no striker situation. Very poor first half, completely dominant second.
Yaya was awful. Kolorov , Navas, Ottomendi and Kompany very good.
Pellegrini is going to come in for a lot of stick but another day we win comfortably.

 

[PragueBlue]

Crossing from navas isn't working so why not keep doing it for 30 more minutes

Crosses from Navas created our best 2 chances.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

The manager is a tool. There's no other word for him. Playing without a striker the entire game until the final few minutes? What on either is all that about? We were away to 20th placed Villa, not Real Madrid.

 

[AntonDonJuan]

Let's see if Bony or Aguero are fit for the next game, if they aren't he will probably stick demechelis up front!! He is his usual go to guy

 

[avoidconfusion]

Fuck off Pelegrini you spineless, stubborn, clueless coward. If you didn't have such a great squad you'd be nowhere near 1st. Always feels like we win despite of his shit tactics and subs.

Playing most of the game without a striker and his first stub is to bring a midfielder on. Prick

 

[Sergio Picasso Aguero]

On another day it could've been 3-0

Still top of the table.

Get Silva and Aguero back and we'll move up a gear.

 

[kippaxking79]

Not good enough. Back to the days of playing against the BUS!

We haven't got an answer to it.

 

[oakiecokie]

Pelle refuses to make any decision or changes until he has no other option. Nacho not coming on for Bony is mind boggling

He could also have come on for Sterling way way before he eventually did,but you`re correct to not use him as a straight swap for Bony was stupid.

 

[wattle]

Fuck off Pellers

Don't be a knob

 

[I Hart Man City]

I hope if they have to put the ball out for us at ours we don't give it back to them.

 

[Dave S]

Watching that today was akin to having a fucking nightmare.

 

[everythingchangesbutblue]

Top of the league, qualified for the cl with 2 games to spare and quarters of lc, some of you muppets need to fuck off and support someone else.Bad finishing was all that cost us today.

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

If £100m of attacking talent in Sterling and De Bruyne had managed to convert either of the total sitters that came their way we'd have won comfortably.

 

[Damien10]

No need to sub Sterling. Manuel should of hooked Fernando and played with Fern and Delph in the centre.

 

[teddykgb]

Not gonna lose my mind about the manager we did just enough to have nicked a 1-0. Have to finish those chances and we need our full squad healthy desperately

 

[pudge]

How in the name of fuck did we not win that?

Said it since the start of the season, we need another striker.
