dudevillaisnice Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Worst team in the league when it comes to game management. By far. Can’t control games, scoring seems like a chore and when we do get a lead we absolutely do everything to throw it away by stop playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Yeah we're in serious trouble. It takes a side destined to drop to somehow lose that. Any sort of pressure we crumble and yet again not taking chances when we're on top. That will absolutely kill us mentally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 This is the exact type of games that will define a season and we have that relegation feeling around us. Moral in the player group will be shot after that. There will always be that feeling in the back of our heads that at any moment we will f*** it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danceoftheshamen Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Awful team 1 point from two games against 10 men one of them winning 1-0 and that team playing with 10 men for more than a full half. Relegation hallmarks all over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Cant keep using VAR injustices each and every week to paper over the cracks of Smith's weird decisions and player errors and overall bottling it all the sodding time. We need to change it up as the current system isnt working. We have a lot of potential, time to stand up and be counted and realise it. Otherwise we are down.

Fairy In Boots Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 It’s 6 games in a bit of over reaction about us being relegation fodder tbh. Positives we’re competitive Engels - good buy Guilbert - good buy jack & John can cut it at this level Negatives Elmo - just not good enough Taylor, El Ghazi, Jota - see above movement in oppositions final third is poor as is the quality of our set pieces and crossing. Game management - abysmal sitting to deep not forcing teams to work more. Dean smith’s tactical nativity and reluctance to swap out mcginn or Jack. Smiths substitions overall more negative than good but we can survive here. We shouldn’t get on their back though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most people already knew we were in a relegation battle before the season started. Nothing has changed, we’ll still end up finishing somewhere between 16-20th as 99% of us thought.

Blasterpocket68 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 That's really disappointing result, a draw anyone would have taken , but from that position we should have at least gained 1 point. To early yet to panic were not 10 games in yet ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got a last minute goal with a man less, their dressing room will be buzzing, Out dressing room will be shot after this. I'm dreading the game against Burnley.

It’s a joyless, pointless league in which we have no chance of competing at the top end. We’ll spend the majority of our time battling against relegation which is **** tiresome & boring. We might have a season whereby we finish high enough to qualify for another pointless competition in the Europa League. Then we’ll have our season **** by playing in a totally bloated tournament, on Thursday nights, against peculiar teams in all sorts of ridiculous locations, which will then mess our season up enough that we’ll be back to square one of battling relegation again. **** this league.

useless Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Today's result was a bad one, but it hasn't exacty come out of the blue, losing to Palace and Bournemouth and failing to beat a ten man West Ham team were even worse results for us, those are the games that we should be getting more points from meaning there would be less pressure on us in situations like today.

VillaChris Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Next three games are huge. Not worth thinking about not being on 10 points at final whistle of Brighton game as we have Liverpool and Man. City straight after which is a long shot to even get a point out of those two. One thing I would say it's still just about early in the season for the table not to be split into seperate divisions just yet. If we win v Burnley we move onto 7 points. Many teams in top half like Sheffield United and Man. United are on 8 points and both of those could easily lose their next prem fixture. It's still very tight beyond top 2. However keep throwing away more games like today and we will be stuck in the bottom three I'm afraid. Wolves for example beat Watford at home and suddenly they're on 7 points and gradually moving up the table. We need to do the same, huge on Saturday even at this early stage.

Tomaszk Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Us and Newcastle look comfortably the worst teams in the league which is a shame. I feel like the players are good enough actually. They aren't doing it though and the setup is wrong, the mindset is wrong. Biggest issue is we're rushing everything when we've got the ball. McGinn and Grealish get tired around 60/70 mins because they're spending most of the first half sprinting forward or sprinting back. Crack that and I think we'll see returns.
