sheepyvillian Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I would love to know who put Diaby to sleep for the last 4 months. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Emi is making massive saves what seems like every game thesedays. We controlled it for the most part. Getting tired of players wanting to shield the ball and waiting to get dispossessed rather than laying it off quickly. Its constant today. Watkins has been busy, need a lot more from Leon. Id love a 0-1 here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) Fairly even first half overall. Bit concerned that Carlos tried to play offside in their half for the DCL chance! If we can get the first goal then should take at least a point. Would like to see a bit more from Diaby and more controlled possession from McGinn. UTV!

Sulberto21 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 We’ve dominated without taking our chances and one good goal disallowed for Carlos standing up. The first one I felt was a foul on Danjuma anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted January 14 VT Supporter Share Posted January 14 Been a while since we played well. About as long as Luiz played well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dominated from 15 mins except for a few bits of chaotic defending (Lenglet and Carlos is my least favourite CB partnership), but another body in midfield would help. Feel bad for Diaby but he’s mostly anonymous again and I’d rather Bailey had more space. Shift SJM back to the right and put these cloggers to the sword. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Every ref is against Villa and every pundit and media outlet is against Villa. It's hilarious. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emi for that double save, saved our skin… Moreno is getting better, such an exciting player… What a great strike for the disallowed goal - Youri to come on and make us more potent in attack?

Tomaszk Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 3 minutes ago, Delphinho123 said: I’m not sold on any corruption or conspiracy really against any club. The standard of refereeing is poor and VAR shouldn’t be a part of football full stop. Certainly not in its current guise. It really is that simple. I don’t know a single person that likes VAR. If it wasn’t so utterly bizarre and laughable it would be really sad. And that’s being kind. It’s destroyed the PL in the last 2/3 years. VAR is fine. It's operated by PL refs. There's your problem. The worst of the worst. Good sunday league refs are better. Ones that have a brain. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Bit of a frustrating half. Played well in parts controlling the game but final.ball gone amiss. Unlucky that moreno goal not given but Dcl missed the best chance of the half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 The longer Pau is out, the more I appreciate his ability to pass through the press, I really didn't recognise how integral he is to the way we play. Mings is probably our second best at it, Carlos and Lenglet just don't have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see the minutes of the meeting for PGMOL and the FA where they all decided to conspire against Villa for bantz. It’s amazing it hasn’t been leaked by anyone and absolutely everyone was on board with the project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Everton are good at holding on to your shirt, then falling over and getting the foul. The ref is a gormless Wallace and Gromit character and falls for it but hasn't been as diabolical as some refs. The VAR took way too long. Kamara been our best outfield player and Emi saved us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ones that have a brain. This is where all of the issue lies. Right there. No one wants to referee anymore. I can tell you first hand that the local game absolutely cannot recruit or retain refs anymore. It’s never been easier to get up to the PL.
