Match Thread | Aston Villa vs Man City (06/12/23)

[journolud]

Not usually one to be pessimistic but I can’t see us hanging on for anything here

 

[deano ou812]

Whoever scores first wins the game

Don’t know about that villa yes us I’m not so certain..

 

[wolviedinho]

Get Phillips and kova on before they score and then we bring them on.

 

[applecentral]

Not the spirit, the fact based on our past performances.

That’s the spirit

 

[Dax777]

We need more speed up front. Bernardo needs to be moved to the middle. Get Nunes in for Alvarez and Kova for Stones

 

[LongsightM13]

The ‘small squad to keep everyone happy’ is ok
The ‘laughably minuscule squad with two keepers on the bench after just one injury’ is madness
At least two players needed in January, possibly three.
And proper players, not training cones

 

[RayCTID]

I half expected that half but saying that defensively we are doing better than what we have recentely been showing. Especially Gvardiol

 

[HolisticJim]

You are right. I didn't think this through. Akanji to RB, and take the both of them off. Move Stones to defence, put Nunes and Kovacic on to create a midfield.

100% agree.

 

[Blue tiger]

A game as hard as we thought it would be with the squad down to its bare bones. Love Lewis, but he is getting bullied, Kovacic on for him for me try and help out, Walker, Akanji and Gvardiol have been poor, Ake on for me.

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Ooh yeah, that was close

It should've been.
