Should have known better than to follow popular fan opinion, like a proper Manager... Anyway on a serious note, it's a shame, he was playing well aside from the silly fouls. it's just so predictable when we waste possession like that. Sorryy but Chuk isn't ready Edited May 19, 2022 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnley have stood off Villa and let us have it right up to their penalty area where they’ve defended very well. Dont mistake lots of possession for being excellent. We haven’t created a single good chance for all that possession. Thought the passings been excellent , the movement, the shape, I’ve really liked what I’ve seen, maybe I just don’t get football though.

If we'd actually created some decent chances we'd be well clear and one mistake wouldn't have us 1-0 down. We had some solid chances. Pope made some excellent saves.

bannedfromHandV Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Totally dominated the first 30 minutes, then it became the game Burnley wanted with lots of stoppages and set pieces. Then Buendia does his level best to give away a penalty and here we are. Chuk has struggled to get into the game, McGinn’s been best player out there so far. Hopefully we come out fired up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes... at their place.. without the pressure of our crowd.. when it was 0-0.. and they had 4 at the back. Are you guys really this narrow minded?

AshVilla Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Any manager worth his salt would have seen going into this game that Burnley were going 5 at the back with a low block to not concede and nick a goal. What does Gerrard do, bench Coutinho one of our most gifted attacking players and throw in an 18 year old who is not ready and should be on loan at a championship club. Got what we deserve i'm afraid. Edited May 19, 2022 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 We look good, I know we went behind, but we're sending these thugs down today lads. Not sure what the unrest is about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get your wish and he’s let us down big time. I think you've mistaken me for someone else, I felt Buendia was harshly dropped after the away game at Burnley, but I've always felt he's massively overrated by many on here.

Always best to get an appraisal of how things are going elsewhere. We were playing well, we were doing fine and then just kind of stopped and let them in, it's frustrating as **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No end product, it’s not impressive (to me at least) to knock it around in the opposition half in front of the defence not creating any chances.

No defending that tackle at all but he is clearly trying too hard to impress for not being given a fair chance. **** hell! Gerrard’s fault he is trying too hard. I’ve read it all now!

duke313 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) Gonna be a fun second half as Burnley sit back with everyone behind the ball defending the 1-0. Hook Chuk and bring on Ings. Watkins looks like a lost lamb up front on his own. Edited May 19, 2022 by duke313 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Harsh on Buendia. Imho he has been really good expect for his terrible penalty give away. I would like him to get the full 90. Give him time to make up for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaParkAvenue Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Villa have been okay but had trouble creating real chances. Stupid challenge from Buendia - he’s a risk taker and that’s why he should play way up the pitch, far away from Villa’s goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazmonkey Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Here's something I've noticed lately. Why do we always have 10 back for corners and freekicks. Who will.pick up the ball if we win it and by some chance can make a pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
