Farlz Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I'm just not impressed. We need to go out and control that 2nd half. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) Hey, what can we say about that? We're not fluid, we haven't been for years. But that half was punctuated by key moments. I remember three interceptions/clearances by John Terry in dangerous situations. Adomah gambled on a goal keeping mistake and took his chance. Then Davis best his man and was brought down. Clear penalty. Good finish. I dunno, foreign managers often talk about 'moments' in a game. I think we did well with our 'moments' in that half. I'm looking for some confidence and fluency in the second half. Let's not give Barnsley a sniff.

We haven't ever been as good as we were under MON since. We were leading the league half way through the season when MON was in charge. People moan way too much about MON. I think you've spectacularly missed my point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dappadan Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I genuinely can not understand the complaints in here. I am happy with 2 goals and 5 shots on target and reducing them to 0 shots on target. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carewjust4u Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Look boys, we are playing well against a team that has won two on the bounce...when have Barnsley looked like scoring? Snodgrass impressive but doesn't look match fit, Davis continues to impress. For the record I'm Bruce out, but you cannot say were not playing well so far.

Wezbid Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Giving them more respect than they deserve, they've played some nice enough stuff since we've not got in their faces. I wouldn't describe them as awful at all but we could put a few more past them if we actually press them and don't camp out in our own half.

Genie Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Can't believe the moaners in here, at first I thought people were being sarcastic but it's actually for real. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gompedyret Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Barnsley is the slightly better team, when it comes to team play kinds of stuff. However, it's obvious Villa has better players, more capable at making a difference on their own. Which is...what makes a difference so far.

kingysilvers Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 I wish we would just close them down a bit more. It doesn't need to be gung ho but countless times in the first half our entire midfield was sat deep in our half 5-10 yards from the nearest man while we let them build from the back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurembergVillan Posted September 16, 2017 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2017 David Prutton is such a gaping hoop. "Minimal contact". Jesus wept. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NurembergVillan Posted September 16, 2017 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2017 First time we've scored twice in the 1st half since March 2015. That stat alone shows just what a crap football team I support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
