Aston Villa PL (A) | Man of the Match

[DenisHasDoneIt]

Eddie outstanding, for keeping it salvageable. His performance wouldn’t rate any higher if we’d have scraped a stuffy win or draw. Ruben had a decent game compared to those around him. 1-0 flattered us, but that it was just 1 was not solely down to the keeper or to iffy finishing.

 

[Akira]

Either Eddie or Dias. Dias looked more like his usual self after the dire performances recently, but Eddie ensured we didn't suffer a trashing.

first time I've gone for Ederson, no real alternative

Exactly!

Our fans we’re magnificent, shame our players couldn’t match their efforts.

 

[Saddleworth2]

Has to be Eddie. No outfield player warranted it.

 

[Alcatraz]

Walker was poor as was Rico and Alvarez.
Thought Stones did well for first game back
Bobb for Foden ?

 

[BigJoe#1]

Would have voted for Bailey had it been possible, though by virtue of the number of very good saves he had to make and the fact he was beaten by a harsh deflection, it Ederson for me.

Johnny Boulders. Showed some grit and passion. Akanji close second

 

[Bluemart]

Ederson followed by Dias. Thought Haaland huffed and puffed without any service
