Match Thread | Aston Villa vs. Man City (21/12/24)

Look at Rico when our CBs have the ball. He just fucking stands next to a Villa player, 10 yards in front of the CB and blocks any potential passing lane. Got great footballing IQ though.

 

[Damanino]

our wingers can only receive the ball with their back to goal and rather deep. nothing like a let them run in space and give them an overlap pass. our opponents love it. overlapping fullback also not a thing these days;

Lol.

The first of many over the top comments today.

No it's fucking fantastic watching us get embarrassed playing the same way every week.

fuck it1-3

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

At least bookies keep making us favourites for every game.

It’s like printing your own money.

 

[Sparkys-Army]

Been doing it since minute 2 of the game. Stupidity

He must of been told to do it though, bonkers

 

[Blu1]

Haaland walking around is pissing me off. He’s not pressing or moving the line

Take him off & get another body in midfield

 

[Nas_City]

Has Foden made pass into the box yet?

 

[jollylescott]

We’ve got a major problem with creativity with Bernie and Jack on the wings, and no Kev.

 

[Aguuuerroooooo]

These are the consequences when your second-highest scorer is a defender. It’s not about the lack of pressing or Rodri missing—it’s because our offense is terribly finished apart from Haaland. Ask yourselves, which of our offensive players, aside from Erling, would get into the starting XI of the likes of Real Madrid or Bayern?
