Aston Villa (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

I thought our press was spot on and they couldn’t get their build up going all night

We pushed them back and controlled the game for the most part

The muscle memory has kicked in for the old boys and they know how to close out a season

It’s not pretty but we look hard to beat again for the first time this season

Rashford - social conscience - I'm not arguing with that - it's good. But as a player, an attacker - 28 next birthday - 89 Prem goals in his entire career - ten years in the first team - is truly pathetic. But he plays with the attitude of someone who thinks he's way better than he actually is.

He was very unlucky with that opening run at Dias when he hit the post and it rebounded back to Ortega. But he went downhill after that. I don't get why Emery went with Rashford over Watkins against PSG and against City.

Watkins can't be happy - first Duran keeps him out of the side and now eight goals a season Rashford doing likewise.

A poor man’s Danny Welbeck
 
You absolute, 100% love to see it!
Made up for nunes, he’s had a really rough year not helped by his performances or the positions he’s been asked to play, but to be fair he’s never claimed to be a defender!

My prediction of an unbeaten end to the season remains alive! Imagine if we squeaked second haha

I watched it again, and yes I think he does. Does that make a difference? He still fouls him in my opinion.

I'm not convinced by that, can't tell from that if he gets the ball from that angle and it looks like the contact comes after he plays the ball.
I swear they showed a better angle on the big screen that showed Dias getting the ball.
I'll watch the the longer game highlights in 20 minutes.
Doesn't look like a clear and obvious error either way.
