KenjiOgiwara Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Normally I can see positives and believe we can recover, but we look so uninterested today I can't believe it's on the cards. They look mostly keen to get back on the bus tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digavilla Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 2 minutes ago, bobzy said: Their press has worked well against us tbh - we're playing a LOT of long balls, and it isn't working. Bournemouth is good at defending high & long ball, why are we playing to their strength ? On occasion we play on the ground we managed to create opening or get them to foul & get free kick. Hope Smith rectify this in second half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romavillan Posted February 1, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 1, 2020 Nakamba not played anywhere near the semi final levels where he was immense. If he picks it up things will look a bit different I'm sure. All is not lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re just shite We have games, where we are second to every ball....its not a one off....its a feature of our inconsistency. as a team we are far too open in general.

Bournemouth have outplayed us for 45 minutes. We're probably slightly fortunate it's only two. Can't rely on continual last minute goals to cover the fact we're normally awful for the first 92minutes. Hause awful. Luiz awful. El Ghazi awful. Samatta done nothing. Mings too relaxed. Konsa too inexperienced. Nakamba naïve. Targett, Guilbert are hit and miss. Grealish can be brilliant but sometimes, rightly, feels he has to take on too much. Keeper is largely irrelevant. We really aren't good enough for this league. Anyone who watches us play knows that. People talk of 'doing a Blues' and winning the cup and being relegated. I think we all know what is more likely - getting destroyed in the cup AND being comfortably relegated. Norwich are the only team we're better than. Don’t agree with this at all. Early in the season we were robbed of points....Crystal Palace valid goal, Arsenal potentially etc etc. At our level ie bottom half of the table you rarely if ever dominate anybody. We are having a back game but your assessment of players is OTT we are good enough for this league. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osmark86 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Must increase the intensity next half. We've had our chances too so it's not inconcievable that we could get some result. But if we repeat the first half it's game over. Let's see some fight now Villa! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely. I’ll let you in on a secret. I don’t actually believe that. It’s called hyperbole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s my massive concern with this team, because most are ‘potential’ signings they are going to have great games and terrible games until experience smooths that put. We needed some experience in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
