Rewatching the game I was very impressed with his tackling and how he (along with others) was much better at cutting out the thru balls, huge improvement.
No problems with his defending, but like I said left side is attacking and he’s been looking Cash-esque, lots of energy but disappointing end product. He was so dangerous last season, one of our main creators.
Twice I remember Moreno was unmarked with a couple in the box and he missed them by a mile. Our left is the attacking side, the LB needs to be able to create.
We have been out scoring teams all year, taking it to the big boys.
Then in the last two games we set up and played equal opposition like we were petrified and would be lucky to escape with a draw. What happened?
I made my brother in law start supporting us 10 years ago, as he’s a mad Bayern fan he struggled to gel with the team and would get up me for waking him up at 2am to watch us lose once more.
Now he still loves Bayern but admits he enjoys Villa games much more because of the terrible memories of the recent past and the amazing vibe of a sleeping giant waking up.
Thought it served us well outlet-wise having Diaby on one side with his pace and Zaniolo on the other with his strength, they looked like having no chance of muscling him off the ball.
