osmark86 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 We're still in the lead lads. Not all is lost even though we're not exactly performing like Real Madrid. Relax and enjoy the game a little too, isn't that why we're all watching? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Think we're in need of a new CB and LB lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hourihane and Onomah need to get out of second gear. O'Hare looking good and Hogan just waiting for someone to understand his strength of a through ball (haven't seen one of them at Villa in a couple seasons). Fingers crossed. It would be nice to finish 3 or 4 goals ahead but in good old fashioned Villa it will be a butt clencher till the end. I agree. The weather isn't helping but that's not really an excuse. Onomah is looking ok, the only player who really wants to dribble at them with the ball. I really wish we had someone who could feed Hogan in, otherwise he does very little. I've seen quite a bit of Bjarnason now and he really doesn't cut it for me, quite a poor player unfortunately. Samba just can't handle the skiddy service and anything on the ground has been a nightmare for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macandally Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 We really weren't comfy for 30 minutes though were we? Colchester were more direct in their passing, busier and looked up for it. This season bares a striking resemblance to last season already. New players and nothing has changed, no passing shape, predictable failures, Samba was shocking. cannot believe we are as bad as we were 2 years ago if not worse. What the F is Bruce doing?

Have you ever played in conditions like That? You can see the water spraying off the ball every time it's kicked, it's so difficult to have a good touch of the ball...nevermind control it and turn at speed.

sidcow Posted August 9, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2017 Dirty Leeds only drawing with a league 2 team. Sheffield losing to a league 1 team. Aston Villa, pride of The Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I actually think they're playing pretty well, considering the conditions, and one or two mental moments. I don't know if anyone else has played a competitive game in torrential rain but it's hard work and unpredictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think it's going to be a long old season :-) but I wouldn't judge our chances for the season on this game. We have mostly a second string side out in quite a wet pitch.
