We seem to play brilliant in first half of second half very often after poor first half.
Can you tell Martin O'Neill to tell the players to drink the tea in half time before the game or tell them off before the kick off
Excellent comeback and even at 2-0 down I feel we will win.
I would like to see a pre season friendly being organised with Corinthians so we can see Ronaldo in action before he hang up his boots.
How about a little pre season competition with them, AC Milan and Athletic Bilbao
I was planning to go to on the train from Moor Street to Wembley, as I want to celebrate by dancing after the journey (acock's green) so should I go to Solihull Station and park somewhere there (if if free) or moor street as I am not paying 12 quids for all day parking.
and Mellberg next to God snd Dunne and Staunton we will will not let in a goal for whole season
Paul McGrath is greatest defender of all time in my opinion. He is so reliable like a Rolls Royce. It would be interesting to see what Howard Spencer is like though.
Think Dunne is a better defender but Laursen is more dangerous in the air and set pieces and got a Viking spirit. But whatever ever happens they will never be better than Paul McGrath.
Who is the team captain of Man City now. Since they sold their decent defender to erm us I want Aston Villa to humilate Gareth Barry and win the cup with a Dunne hat trick.
Think we should look for a ready made partnership aboard and bring the pair. We need to borrow Arsene Wenger's scouting book.
If MON is good friend with Fabio Capello (Hopefully) he must know someone who can do the job for us and help to improve the team with lot of English players. He know our system and players.
What we need to do is find a young Alan Shearer before moving to blackburn and watch him to blossom at Villa Park. But where are the striker in similar mould apart from Torres at Liverpool.
I hope MON will manage to find a striking partnership strong as Alan Shearer and Les Ferdinand (in their prime) in next few months. I know we should have Torres and Drogba upfront
There is no need to change the system as both Brad is happy to accept this for now. Brad Guzan need games to keep his skills sharp so he will be ready is something happens to Brad Friedel ie an injury or suspension.
Guzan should be our cup goalkeeper. Friedel will accept this as he need to prolong his career as long possible to make sure he doesn't get injuries and get plenty of recovery time. If he can extend his career a season or two by doing that, he will be prepared to do this.
No one need to play every league and cup games these days.
We were poor attacking wise. Midfield is tired. We can't rely defenders to win us everything. The strikers doesn't work together and spend too much time going wide.
I would have taken off Petrov and leave Reo Coker on. I think the conditions doesn't help, but we did not keep the ball on the ground. MON need to learn this classic quote from his former boss. At least he is positive in the end to try to win the game.
I think we missed Emile Heskey tonight.
Poor week for Villa's point of view.
