Lerner's Driver Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 5 minutes ago, rbcuk said: Did alright tonight, apart from the obvious goal from the wall, hopefully starts sat against Brentford Can't agree. Decent start and he looks good when it's on him to make a short term impact, but he gives up very quickly. There was some very obvious injury play acting today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wall was poor, but good god it was a grubber of shot that. We gonna be talking about the Foden free kick, well, ever again? No, it was a shite freekick. The wall should have done better, Olson should have done better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybloke Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Was involved in the majority of any decent attacks we had, defended and covered well. 1 brain fart for their 2nd goal. Expecting to see teilemens get a roasting if zaniolo is after tonight. On the pitch 25 minutes and played them through on goal twice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I thought he was involved in everything we did well going forward. Mistake for the 2nd but a much better performance for his first start for 3 months. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was some very obvious injury play acting today. He didn’t give up the 1st half he and Duran was chasing back, He had a knock to his leg which would have been a deadleg before he went down the 2nd time, when he was subbed 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wall should have done better, Olson should have done better. A keeper can’t cover the whole goal on a free kick from that close. They rely on a wall to cover off one portion so they are free to concentrate on another. If the wall doesn’t do their job that is the fault of the wall, not the keeper. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise some people see what they want to and can't be positive about certain players but it was 100% a dead leg. Either way it was his first start for months and other than the freekick and his part in a poor wall he did really well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it was a dead leg, I said he started okay and he has shown shown some decent play recently, but he didn't "do really well" tonight by any stretch. Unlikely we are signing him in the summer.

omariqy Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Played well today. Was involved in everything good we did. Shame about the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DakotaVilla Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 From what I can see he played well despite the pathetic defending in the wall. He’s playing a very important squad role when you consider his goals v west ham, performance v wolves etc. Helping to manage the absence of Ramsey.

Tomaszk Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Not appalling, again. That's good. Cost us a goal with a basic error at a crucial time. That's bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taxahunter Posted April 4 VT Supporter Share Posted April 4 (edited) I had decided not to comment on the negativity he gets after he is playing, but today I simply can’t let it go. I can’t remember who mentioned ‘haters’ in this thread, but actually he was right, if You can’t acknowledge that he had a great game yesterday, then you have already made up your mind about him and will criticize whatever he does. Making comments like ‘back to the old version’, ‘for me he is done at Villa’ simply makes You a hater Everybody makes mistakes, all the players did it yesterday, against a quality side, but somehow You manage to put all the blame on Zaniolo and make his mistake inexcusable Edited April 4 by Taxahunter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skruff Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Thought he did very well. Plenty of players who's messed up in a wall before. Looks to me like he's been growing and improving a lot the past few weeks. I'd be happy to have him in the squad, as I imagine he'd continue improving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest bunch of lads Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 He was scared of being hit by the ball when he was in the wall for the 2nd Man City goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
