AVFCDAN Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Can't fault Sherwood at all, he inherited a squad of lifeless footballers, no confidence, no form, no goals. We are a totally different animal now and the honeymoon period is well and truly over. What we are left with is a very motivated team who are plying excellent football and full of confidence. I'm very happy at the moment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Brilliant result. Just need to keep on going. Can somebody explain in detail how Clattenburg was so bad? Been out all day so no idea what happened other than we conceded a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Brilliant result. Just need to keep on going. Can somebody explain in detail how Clattenburg was so bad? Been out all day so no idea what happened other than we conceded a penalty. Whenever our players were going past theirs, they just held our players back, little niggly fouls that weren't given, a couple of appalling advantages were given and not given, he refused to book mccarthy, colman and barry - despite multiple fouls from all of them. He blew for the same decisions to give Everton a FK. Their 2nd goal was as obvious infringement on Given as is humanly possible. Everyone in the ground didn't know he'd given the goal, we all (inc Everton fans) assumed he'd given a FK to Given.. they barely celebrated the goal it was so farcical. He's often not a bad ref, but he was absolutely abysmal (from a villa point of view) all game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danwichmann Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Brilliant result. Just need to keep on going. Can somebody explain in detail how Clattenburg was so bad? Been out all day so no idea what happened other than we conceded a penalty. In fairness the penalty was a penalty. But he let so much go for Everton, they could have had several bookings, we could have had a lot more 3 kicks, every little thing went their way. We probably should have had our own penalty for a foul on Benteke and a few more free kicks in dangerous areas. And Given was clearly fouled for the second goal.

Arj Guy Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Fantastic result and performance. If we carry on playing like this there's no reason why we cannot win our remaining games. However need to cut out the silly errors and defend better from corners. Delph and Cleverley ran the midfield. Barry was anonymous ans Everton should get rid of him in the summer. Also, Everton fans were shite Edited May 2, 2015 by Arj Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fab Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 There's isn't enough text on a page Mantis But we can start with the fact that he should have booked about 6 of their players before he finally put one of them into the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parisvilla Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Our midfield just oozes class at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I'm so glad that we actually look a threat now. Makes it harder for teams to just come here and expect and easy 3 points. Yet again the goals we concede are complete BS, it wasn't like they completely out played us. Can't fault anyone out there really. Benteke maybe MOTM, but you could've given it to anyone of Cleverly or Delph tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 That move on 20 odd minutes was 49 passes and was only stopped by a foul on delph, who actually had put grealish in who could in turn have put tekkers in if crapenburg had played advantage. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 As well as the above mentioned (for Mantis), I just want to add that their players went down far too easily and were also targeting Delph and Grealish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Grealish slotting seamlessly into our team is probably the highlight of the season for me. The kid is a teenager for gods sake, what a player we have on our hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted May 2, 2015 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2015 That lovely moment in the second half where Grealish shimmied away in front of (I think) McCarthy and put him on his arse, then walked away with a giant shit-eating grin on his face was a highlight for me. I can't wait for him to score. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottle Maker Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Great game great atmosphere the first couple of minutes was electric. Struggling to decade who our least effective player was they were all so good. Thought we lost a little bit of shape after Westwood went off. Great game disappointed I wont be at the next two.

packoman Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I've watched the third goal about 20 times now and it keeps getting better. The pass from Bacuna and the first touch and finish from Cleverley, beautiful goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One For The Road Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 We are actually a pretty good team aren't we? I knew we were better than previous results and performances suggested but I didn't think we were THIS good. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I counted it as 48, Sherwood out! But yeah remember watching it at the game and making sure I noted it on game of the day, loved this as it wasn't just meaningless passing it was probing at them looking for that opening and took Delph being hacked down to stop it, love it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
