Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

We cannot press high because Haaland can't and that is fine as he is a generational talent but when we are not creating anything for him it is like playing with ten men.

We had similar start last season, i think once KDB comes back we can start winning strike. In addition, we missed Gundo badly, but I am confident pep will sort out our problem. Even if we dont win the title this season I am ok with it. Let’s get behind the team and create atmosphere that can lift up players.

Can’t compare last season and this, different personnel this season and that’s the issue. Poor recruitment and sales.

No getting round it but that was a poor performance but I would rather get them out of the system NOW and not in the run in….a blip now we can deal with ….a blip with five games to go would be a nightmare.

Three points is three points whenever we drop them. If we have blips now we might not be challenging with five games to go.

Well done Villa fully deserved. Been a long time since I saw a team completely outplay us. We don’t look the city of the last few years these days

Can't even say we lacked effort, which makes it even more perplexing

Nunes has been really disappointing for the money we paid for him.

Tbf to him, like Philips, he hasn't had any run in the team to allow him to settle. Problem is, it's chicken and the egg, in that they likely need time but time is not an option if you're looking to win titles

Injuries and suspensions, suspensions and injuries.
Meanwhile Spurs came to the Etihad (home of the reigning champions) with a load of injuries, scored three goals and wandered off with a point.
Out final legitimate attempt on target came in the eleventh minute (the shot in the second half was offside). That's a fucking disgrace for a team regularly top scorers in the Prem.

Well beaten but we will kick in again in Jan after we get a lift from becoming World Champions.

16 to one mate

Fucking hell it's got to be worth a couple of pounds.

Just don't get how much worse it is to play Phillips, surely have a little more defensive cover helps

Really? From what I saw we were most definitely lacking in effort in all departments
