This is a farce. must be something in the water in spain, checking the scores of other friendlies in Spain at the moment, there's already 2 red cards in Getafe matches, but not to be outdown, Cartegena and Murcia have managed 3 red cards by half time 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerner's Driver Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Not great. Kamara our best player. Pau and Bailey both pretty poor. Lots of sloppy passes, we seem to want too much time on the ball. Great finish by Ollie, but they are the posing the greater threat, in every sense. Dirty bastards.

DJBOB Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Interesting that we have mostly stuck with a 4222 or 424 build up. Training for Newcastle I think. Diaby shifted to the left and Bailey on the right after the water break. Bailey can’t stop the urge to come inside when he was on the left but it’s on his weaker foot.

briny_ear Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Emery needs to sort out our attacking play. We gave hardly troubled the Valencia defence and we can’t rely on the defence all the time, brilliant as they have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Kamara’s positioning is so good. Although a little lackadaisical on the ball a couple of times. Torres is no lb. Martnez looked a little rusty, came for a cross once and got nowhere near it. Ollie took his goal well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Torres is going to struggle big time in this role. We need Kamara to have an injury free season, serious player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An unusually techincally-gifted elephant. Has he not improved technically? I mean when we consider his amazing goalscoring run last season with accurate shots... then the one v Lazio... and then tonight's was a perfectly accurate shot rifled right into the bottom corner. And I think his little touches to make space for a shot are often very good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCollins29 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Bailey abysmal. Par for the course. Sooner we can get rid, the better. I'm concerned about Pau in the LB/LCB role. Has not looked comfortable on the ball at all. Mings and him would be better swapping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted August 5, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 5, 2023 Missing JPB. Incredible to say that, but we need him. Really concerned about Leon. Buendia's fighting spirit needed, Tieleman's intelligence and long exact passes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villabromsgrove Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 If this was a European conference game we would be happy with the way we're playing in an away fixture. We're frustrating the opposition and have a comfortable 1-0 lead against a team who are losing their discipline. This is practice for the season ahead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Villa TV vision has had me check my beer strength a few times. We need to up the tempo, we are playing their game. Haven’t really seen the slick interplay in their half we have shown earlier in preseason. Diaby not looking as dangerous on the LHS? Bailey looks a bit rusty still. Maybe swap the balance and impetus with Digne on for Cash and Buendia or more likely Tielemans on for Bailey? Watkins scored with a confident finish which is great to see. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
