Popular Post Chasetown Villa Posted December 17, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 17, 2023 Cash needs upgrading sooner rather than later. He’s just not good enough for a side challenging at the top end of the table. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbauer24 Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Second string is a massive drop off in quality and the returning players have all been awful. Cash terrible, Moreno poor, Ramsey simply shouldnt be on the pitch. Unfortunately that's coupled with the increasingly standard invisible performance of Diaby. McGinn is ineffective due to changed position. Pau, Carlos only decent players so far. Kamara is half the player with Luiz by his side. No urgency, no belief, no effort. Really disappointing performance from the team and actually worse than the Nottingham game. Unai will have to have a massive change in approach/ personnel in the second half as we've been horrific and not truly tested their keeper. A standard away performance? Our first XI is arguably title challengers. This XI are barely top half challengers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted December 17, 2023 Moderator Share Posted December 17, 2023 I dunno if we just go 3-4-3. bring on Duran have Kamara and McGinn and Iroegbunam sit deep and fire long balls at a front two - without our passing midfield, we're really short of options in how we attack.

HeyAnty Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Ramsey needs pulled, been non existent in fist half. Dendonker and mcginn move forward can’t be worse. Go to back 4 as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted December 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2023 Feels like we need a different formation/structure when we play away from home. Not sure how we can be so good at home but so bad away but it's definitely an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought Diaby was that player but he doesn’t even have a go. Agreed on Diaby, started the season on fire, but seems less dynamic lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 If we don't get something out of this I'll probably give up hope of us finishing top 4, at least until I see evidence we can win some away matches. Probably sounds negative but that's the way that first half has made me feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 50M we've been utterly ripped off!! Hoping this is sarcasm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobzy Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 A lot of doom and gloom in here - I don’t think that half was particularly bad! Largely went as expected with us having the majority of the ball and creating some good chances, but then a lapse of concentration and we’ve been sucker punched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't get why we don't perform against teams like this away from home. Badly need Buendia in games like this, he's such a loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 We seem quite impotent down the right hand side, this needs fixing asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurembergVillan Posted December 17, 2023 Moderator Share Posted December 17, 2023 Missed the whole first half because I had surprise guests (actually friends, not lice or something). Disappointed to see we're getting beat away from home again. Without even watching it, I'd take a guess that the 352 thing is an issue because there's such a disparity between our left and right flanks. We've left Cash behind. Happy to be corrected though!

MotoMkali Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 2 minutes ago, PaulC said: Too many players off it today. I thought Moreno has looked lively going forward but the goal may not have happened if Digne had have been playing. Cash off for Bailey and maybe even take Ramsey off for Dendoncker to give ius a bit more strength in midfield and get Mcginn further forward. Definitely not Dendoncker. Tim would he a much better option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 (edited) If you want to finish top 4 or challenge for the title you have to beat teams like Brentford. All the teams below us won so we need to win here. Edited December 17, 2023 by AshVilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted December 17, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2023 Zaniolo may have scored midweek but otherwise he's was very poor still. I don't aee him cinibh on and changing this but I guess it will be a case of needs must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
