zab6359 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Just watched the Bournemouth Sheff Utd game, we should beat them at home they didn't look very impressive at all, Sheff Utd looked good though decent organised team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bournemouth do lack creative players, but are very dangerous on the counter attack. Got some pacey players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls is damn well trying to test my patience Don't be like Tayls We should be treating our home games as cup finals though, can we just do it for home games? We need to win 10 of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Sheff Utd were quite impressive. If they can produce that consistently they will be fine. I would really like them to stay up... as long as its not at our cost! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted August 13, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2019 We need to keep Fraser and Wilson quiet as they’re the danger men. Hopefully get the win and the wheels in motion on the season. No point predicting a line up as nobody expected Elmo and Taylor to play, so could throw a curveball again. Can’t wait to get down VP!

It will give us a clearer picture of where we are re: Premier League quality. I have high hopes. I agree. Too many clubs seem to play their best against the top teams but Villa needs to take points from bottom half clubs like Bournemouth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villabromsgrove Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 We should not have two styles of play. 1) Against the better teams. 2) Against the lesser teams. Dean Smith's Villa need a defined system in the same way that Nuno Santo has at Wolves. Wolves play their own game no matter whether it's Man City or Bournemouth. Last week was a 'park the bus' cop out because we were playing a very good team, this week has to be about the real Dean Smith team and tactics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of an individual error from Grealish in the 85th minute. I don't know about you but i'd rather take that compered to being 4-0 down at half time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villabromsgrove Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 You and I have different football philosophies villalad. Losing 3-1 and losing 4-1 are both losses, it's the ambition that entertains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe that....I think they try to. What the manager tells them to do and what they really do do.....is largely down to the strength or weakness of the opposition...and vice versa. When the odd individual player is losing out against his opponent, you may get away with it, when too many are losing out you are likely to lose the game.....The top teams make it their business to dominate the ball and all their players dominate their opponent or opposite number.....they squeeze you. We have to get used to this league. Edited August 13, 2019 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I think we will draw 1-1. They will take an early lead. Nervous VP until around 75th minute when Mings will pop up with a header from a corner. Cue the onslaught but we just don't manage to stick it in the back of the net again.

Bournemouth were dreadful against Sheffield. Wilson 1 shot all game. Gosling and Brooks injured. If you're writing us off at home against Bournemouth we might as well give up on the season already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
