He never, ever, ever stops, and he has an uncannily good instinct at the back stick. Everything else is weak, but he's so useful for those 2 attributes. He also defends.

Nigel Posted November 8, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted November 8, 2020 We have gone into our shells a bit after the goal which has allowed Arsenal not to worry so much about the counter. Would like to see Barclay run with the ball more as it frees up space! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvonVillain Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I am genuinely miffed by the Townsend thing. Why talk about us as if he had the career of Salifou? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest creation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Solid defending for the most part, Targett got caught out not tracking back when Lacazette missed his header. Trez does so much for the team. I've counted 3 or 4 important clearances in the box. Very bitter about the VAR decision, but the goal was so well taken. We can score more goals. Emi made a crucial block from a cross also. McGinn and Luiz far more combative and dynamic. Watkins started slow, but his hold up play has been very good at times. Barkley and Jack linking well as ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Townsend is an awful pundit, always has been. I could barely listen to any ITV games when he was on it he might as well be smashing a soundboard full of generic and completely insight-less footballing quips with his fist. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 1 minute ago, Gompedyret said: Can anyone remind me, why wouldn't Andy Townsend have anything nice to say about Aston Villa? Ive never heard him say anything bad about us. They made a comment how no one has ever been relegated after 4 wins at the start of a season. I didnt take it as a slight on us, just a random stat. He’s also said we look a much better side more equipped for the PL this season which is true. Anyway, good half. Shame about McGinns goal but its the first shite call we’ve had this season I think. Theyve generally gone our way for a while so whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Hoping as the season goes on Barkley can be more influential. He's not been poor but he's not playing like a £100k/w player either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightdm00 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Work so hard to win the ball then gave it away far to many times with a poor touch/decision. Also, what are they playing Arteta for. Arsenal can just hire Dyche and get the same brand of football for far cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claretman Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I’m pretty sure Townsend does have a soft spot for the Villa but tries far too hard to be unbiased and goes in the opponents favour too much. (At least that’s what I want to believe) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osmark86 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Swedish pundit (and excellent journalist) Erik Niva is giving Dean Smith some cred while acknowledging that he's getting stick in some media because his name is Dean Smith and that he came from the lower divisions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Imperative we keep some what high pressure and push for a second. If we start sitting back we've not drawn, but lost this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazmonkey Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 This game is for the taking...time to be bold Be methodical and better with the ball. Luiz then is a prime example...lovely long ball to him...space to bring it down and he gives it away. Watkins needs support round him. Hate seeing him bring 60 yard out of the sky passes with no support. Few improvements and we can wrap this up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
