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

Savinho for Bernardo and I think we can win this.

We’re obviously still susceptible to the counter attack, but we’ve nullified most of them.

Just need a goal and a bit more confidence and belief.

Villa have created nothing that hasn't come from a City error, they are crap. Its definitely winnable second half.

Bring Ferna back out of retirement he would still put a better graft in than this lot

Hes not retired....

Ping a quick ball through ….goal.
Ping a quick ball through ….goal.
Ping a quick ball through ….goal.

Every fkn game. Rinse and repeat.

Where’s the defensive coaching?

Plus the usual powder puff attack.

Kiss another 3 points goodbye.

Gundogan has stolen a living from us

Nah man. Dont rate his city career on this return. Hes been brilliant. Shoukdnt be in this position now though. Pep just being stubborn.

rewatching that villa goal, lewis nowhere to be seen

He has to follow the run from the villa player there. It's pure basics.

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

10 fouls to 1 in their favour - they are either fouling us without a second thought or they are snapping into decent tackles.

We can’t match their physicality in the middle of the park and ultimately really struggles to deal with their transitions.

Far and away the biggest thing we need is energy and legs. And we’re needing to buy that type of player in.

I'm not suggesting we play the whole EDS side now am I?

You seem to be of the opinion that we have better options in the EDS than in the first team squad. And that Pep, who unlike you see them train everyday refuse to realise this. When the reality more likely is that the children in the youth team are significantly worse than our senior players and thats why they are not getting any minutes.
