Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post-Match Thread

Both us and Liverpool will be happy to have had a poor performance without losing ground to the other.

Could be seeing the decline of our best-ever full-back, here.

Onto the next one.
 
He could've scored, but he was by far the only player constantly creating danger. You could go and criticize any other player today, but you chose the best player by far on the pitch? What did Bernardo create, Gundogan, Foden, Rodri, Cancelo?
Sigh. I was commenting in the moment mate. When he played a ball that was slightly short to Ake. In the first half, before minutes before his goal, the passing of the team overall wasn’t good including his.

I’m not singling him out. A comment made in the moment…the performance threads will be there to make further comments on all the other players but I’d rather not bother anymore. I was so wishing for Kev to smash the free kick in or his pass at one point to find Haaland.

Didn’t even slag him off. Anyooo, it is what it is. You’ve spoken your mind and I’ll end things there. I’ve got to sort dinner anyway.
 
Not quite at the races tonight. Few guys not at it.
Take the point and move on. Up the blues!
 
8 more assists from Kev to the big man and im taking £520 off Sky.
Lovely jubbly
 
Alvarez should have come in as a sub.
A Pep brain fart.
Fucking shit by Walker and Ederson.
Ederson had to save one fucking shot all game and he let it sail over his head.
I really sm begining to think we need a sweeper keeper who can actually save shots.
The Villa goal was pinged in, and Ederson had no way of knowing where it was heading. Very harsh to blame the keeper for that one.
 
KDB,Bernie and Haaland only 3 on it in the second half.
Watkins always gives our defenders trouble when he plays.
We move on

Watkins is a very good player.. he reminds me a little of Tevez in his style of play. Think he could be a decent option for a bigger club.
 
It’s the Haaland pressing conundrum that I was ridiculed for suggesting he may be benched for certain games.

When we have a false 9, our press is relentless and hugely effective.

With Haaland, we’re still adapting and it’s leaving our system exposed at times. It needs time to perfect.
Think our passing might have something to do with it.First half walker thought he was kdb and cancello did everry pass with the outside of his boot.We were rushing it to much at times and we carried gundogan who looked miles of it.
 
When things aren't going our way Rodri & Gundogan create so much space for the opposition in central midfield, like two oil tankers.
Honestly don't think that was the problem today, it has been in the past.
Villa went long virtually all game and bypassed the midfield.
We created our own problems in midfield with poor passes and low energy.
