And won us a penalty, which in my book is worth a goal contribution and is basically an assist, if the penalty is scored
-
It does, really. Maybe not this summer, but with the amount of attacking players we have and the incoherence of their respective skillsets, some of them will be frozen out, weather it be Ings, Bailey, Buendia, Coutinho. They will become deadwood we won't be able to shift, and THAT is when it will probably be money we won't be able to spend (not to mention how it affects FFP). And it's all money down the toilet, because there certainly is enough talent there. What we need is an effective way to play them.

Who did though?
-
Many will think I'm overreacting, but I honestly believe he needs a loan to the championship, even if only for half a season. He needs to be the best player in a team and being constantly passed the ball. That will teach him how to actually be present throughout the game and how to take responsibility, rather than shying away. We can't afford to carry him if he's only going to show up for 5 minutes per game.
-
Regardless of what you think of the penalty, he was bad enough even if you don't take it into account. Dreadful defending. Ramsey was completely useless though, which also doesn't help.
-
Not writing him off, he was our best player against Bournemouth and Everton. But Eze embarrassed him today.
-
We look like we might concede every time the opposition have a set oiece. We actually conceded 4 goals in 2 and a half games from set pieces. Luckily two were ruled out. This bloke is an absolute waste of wages.
-
That pass to Ayew was exquisite. Shame they don't play in the same team.
-
Add Heaton and Kozak to the list
-
But that's the point, have you seen Iwobi's stats? He'd have missed!
-
I'm still convinced that Buendia-Ings is the best attacking link-up we currently have at the club. Probably neither will start on Saturday.
-
This would make more sense if we had aerial threat in the box, to maximise the crosses from our wingbacks. We don't have that type of striker
-
"He went to Barca, and just sat on the bench, He came to Villa, 'Cause Gerrard is he friend, He's effing useless..." Ok I'm getting carried away, but if he doesn't get his droppings together that might soon become his chant
-
Lad must be thinking: "How come no matter how well I play,l and how poorly Konsa plays, he always gets the nod ahead of me?" I'd be fuming if I were him.
-
As they say, with great power comes great responsibility. The same should apply to footballing ability, and Coutinho just doesn't step up. In fact, if you had to attribute the word "passenger" to any of our players, week in, week out, he would probably get the highest number of nominations. Disappointing.
-
I'm not massively upset he wasn't picked - the reason for that being that Chambers hasn't put a foot wrong since joining us and has been consistently good not just at defending but also on the ball, and in my view he's done enough to earn the shirt ahead of Mings. To pick Konsa ahead of either of them is what really baffles me.
-
Our form was already poor before his injury, and so were his performances. And sure, he was probably our best midfielder at the time, of course we missed him. That however says a lot more about our squad back then than it does about him I do agree he was good at the beginning of 20/21
-
See I don't even agree he was key in our first season back in the prem. He started well, got a few goals, but his form started dipping around October, then he got injured, came back for project restart and wasn't fit, being bang average as a result. He was only good for a couple of months.
-
Gerrard doesn't want to know that. Not yet. I hope he proves me wrong and makes it work, because hey, who wouldn't want the best version of Coutinho playing for you? But I don't see it happening, and I think that when (if) he will eventually drop Coutinho it will already be curtains for him, and it will be one of the very last cards he'll play. I really hope this post makes me look stupid in the future. I'd love that!!!
-
Another player who is great some of the time, but when he isn't you hardly notice he's actually on the pitch. Coutinho being another one. McGinn you do notice, but he's just as ineffective for most of the time. We will never progress if we have to carry a minimum of three players, waiting for them to switch on. I don't want to be harsh on the lad as he's young and has massive potential, but as any other players he's got to earn his plays and (non) displays like today just don't do that.
-
"Gerrard" actually has all the letters you need to spell "Garde". Just sayin '
-
Leeds at home, Southampton. That's about it.
-
If the right offer comes I'd be ok with moving him on, he would still be my second choice at right back should anything happen to Cash, assuming that Guilbert is as good as gone, and not having seen virtually anything of Kayne other than highlight reels.
-
I would be curious to try a 4-2-3-1 with Luiz and Kamara holding behind Coutinho, Buendia and Bailey. Probably not against top opposition, where a 3 would be more solid, but certainly against bottom table opposition.

We're not fickle, we just don't rate him
