Sulberto21 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Party at Douglas Luiz’s tonight!!! played well excellent tactics but at times some poor decision making cost us more goals. Dali is a very good player but infuriatingly selfish at times when a 10 yard pass would be enough to open the defence up. Daly is genuinely elite level. Lehmann I still believe would be better in the middle because of her balance and she can go in either direction and has good passing imo. Well played and yes Carla Ward would be a great choice for the men’s team. Can Aston Villa be pioneers yet again???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 What a really enjoyable game. Daly, Dali and Hanson are going to be great signings, such an improvement in quality. Well deserved victory and a great platform to start the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post useless Posted September 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2022 Probably our best result since promotion, before the game would have taken a draw and would have seen that as a great result, in fact even when we were 2-0 up I probably would have taken a draw as Man City are the kind of team that can score three or more goals very quickly, which is in fact what they did do, but credit to us scoring another two goals of our own without further reply from them. Also worth noting that because of injuries we had something of a makeshift line-up, Corsie a central defender had to play in midfield, Harding an attacking full-back had to replace Corsie in central defence because Meaghan Sargeant is injured, and in normal circumstances I don't think we would play both Dali and Blindkilde who are usually very attack minded players in central midfield, especially against a team like City, but again because of injuries we didn't really have much choice, also Mayling hadn't trained all week, so to get a result in the circumstances was even more remarkable. Given that last season we struggled so much scoring goals, scoring four today was a big positive, we only scored thirteen in the whole of last season in the league, nearly scored a third of that in one game today, and Rachel Daly already just one goal behind last season's top scorer Remi Allen. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrific win today, most unexpected and on TV too. Leave Carla where she is already doing a great job for the football club, don't even think of poaching her for the lads team, I hear Emma Hayes is a shoe-in for that, in any case! (ITK?)

useless Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Charlton just beat small heath 3-0 in the championship, relevant to us as two of our players Sian Rogers and Elisha N'Dow are on loan at Charlton, our former player and Villa fan Emma Follis and also plays for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 As @useless said we're still missing key players as well like Remi Allen. Also missing was Magill, our new centre forward, due to injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, useless said: Will be interesting to see how Liverpool get on this evening, they've been hyped up quite a lot this summer, seen a few tipping them to finish as the 'best of the rest team', or in other words predicting them to finish fifth, but other than the fact they have the name Liverpool I'm not sure why, they signed six players but only four of those are outfield players and one of those a youngster on loan from Chelsea that has no WSL experience. It's not even as if Liverpool were any more impressive than Leicester the season before in getting promoted, Liverpool came up with fifty-two points from twenty-two games, Leicester were promoted with fifty points from twenty games, and going back the season before that we were promoted with forty points from fourteen games, thirteen wins and one draw, both us and Leicester struggled in our first seasons after promotion as the gap between Championship and WSL is so big. Today against Chelsea could be a reality check for them. Typical that I write this and then Liverpool go and win, I watched all but the last ten minutes and Liverpool battled hard but weren't that impressive, but strangely neither were Chelsea, a strange game all three goals came from penalties, didn't see Liverpool's second but their first looked harsh on Chelsea, handball given but not sure there was anything their defender could have done about it, ball hit against her arm from close distance. I still think Liverpool will struggle, or at least won't be anywhere near as good as some have predicted, but at the same time feel as though they should avoid going straight back down as likes of Reading, and Leicester look like they could really struggle.
