I propose that Tielemans alone would have done so.

Thought about him too. Is he done for the season or are we getting him back for Pool/CP?

Even if we had 3/4 players back from injury we would have won 

Kamara alone probably would’ve changed that game enough to win it.

Unai isn't wrong on the pen calls today

 

Should’ve been a pen. Would’ve happily stolen a point today.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see them beat Pool next weekend.

Robbed of a pen but they look absolutely exhausted. Not going to lose too much sleep over it as long as Pool takes care of business.

Minor quibble but I can’t recall the commentators mentioning our injury list once. 

Robbie Mustoe at the half mentioned it. Said they look exhausted and injuries are clearly taking their toll

Damn announcers curse when he said they haven’t beaten us since 1980 before the game started.

Konsa has been absolutely shocking today and playing himself out of the England squad.

He’s also playing out of position. He should not be in at RB.

I think you've missed my earlier bantz. 

Gotta say, you’ve mastered the art of blurring of that line.

It’s all my fault gents. I bet money on Villa to win.

**** you Olsen. Pointless saving a penalty if you can't deal with the follow up. 

Can’t tell if sarcasm or if you’re just a jackass.

lol called it. So foocking unlucky.

lol if that’s a foul then Morgan rogers was 1000% fouled.

XG 0.06  

That’s generous.

Offside surely?

Clearly offside.

And that’s game.

Just now, DCJonah said:

Pau is also incredibly slow

 

He’s got good pace. It’s getting up to speed that he struggles with.

Torres desperately outpaced. 

Thought the same but the guy clearly had the jump on Pau.

Hell of a save for Olsen.

Ollie not his sharpest at all today

His scoring drought is clearly frustrating him. Looks angry all the time lol.

How was that not yellow card on Bailey. Chopped down!

Came through the player from behind. Thought that was always a yellow.

I don't think that passes forward are failing because of a lack of options up front, which is what bringing on Duran would do. I think it's because we're exhausted and have a shoestring and spit constructed midfield that is also exhausted.

I’ve just seen at least 5 times now where Diaby or Bailey have broken forward along the sideline and instead of chucking it up over their backline it gets passed backwards. Aka what Dunk has done with Adingra. We used to do that all the time when the team was flowing more.

Just now, 479Villan said:

You have to get the ball to him somehow.

They need to pass the ball forward more. Too many passes backwards.

I thought it was more that the defender was judged to have got a touch on the ball 

If that’s the case then it is what it is. I didn’t see him touch the ball though but I could be wrong.

I've seen several replays of the penalty claim now and I think it's one you wouldn't be at all surprised to see given - surprised it was passed over so quickly.

I mean.. he clearly stuck his leg in and it tripped Rogers. Don’t think he needed to flop much, if he did, to sell that. Should’ve gone to the monitor at the least.
