sheepyvillian Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Wilder really is a useless manager, way out of his depth. Archer would heve been better off gping to a decent Championship side like Southampton or Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WakefieldVillan Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Had a bet builder for £25 +1.5 goals first half ️ Saka assist ️ +5.5 goals FT ️ Arsenal win ️ 20 booking points Sheff U ️ One tackle all game!!! For that alone I hope they rot in lower leagues forever.. Oh and Wilder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 What's hilarious about this is Sheffield United just need to beat Burnley at home and get two draws from other games and they'll still beat our points haul from 15/16. You forget how bad we were that season given Sheffield and Burnley are only four points off that total despite both being massively out of their depth.

We had some absolute dross during that period we were circling the drain. Thanks Randy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted March 4 VT Supporter Share Posted March 4 I have a couple of mates who support Sheffield United, and to be fair, they predicted the season would go exactly like this, from the moment they were promoted. They aren't even disappointed, they're just in black humour mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God, I hate all this moaning about how we're perceived. We destroyed Man City with our play, but the game ended 1-0. Why would it be repeatedly mentioned? All 3 of Man City's defeats this season have been by 1 goal, away from home. I hear none of them mentioned because... well, they're not worth mentioning. The press surrounding us this season has been overwhelmingly positive; and rightly so. We've got a manager in the running for Manager Of The Season, a striker in the running for Player Of The Season, we're sat in 4th place, we're being mentioned as a potential block to Man City winning the title (because they have to play Liverpool, Arsenal, us and Spurs in the run-in and have essentially edged their way past poor teams recently) but we're concerned that media reports don't constantly reference a 1-0 win at Villa Park. **** hell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure it was mentioned at the time no side had had more shots against a Pep side. 1-0 massively understates that performance (which is a real shame). Similar with sticking 7 past Liverpool. It has been overlooked several times. The commentators don’t like the idea that the big boys are susceptible to a pounding from Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar with sticking 7 past Liverpool. It has been overlooked several times. The commentators don’t like the idea that the big boys are susceptible to a pounding from Villa. Yes - it got mentioned a lot. At the time (which is when it was relevant, and got discussed) everything was about how good we were and whether or not Guardiola's City team are going to fall apart because of our performance (obviously, they haven't). But why would it be mentioned now? It makes no sense. It will crop up again when we play Man City away and I expect a lot of the build up will be around how good we were at Villa Park. But I'm failing to see why a 1-0 win over Man City that happened about 3 months ago, and after Arsenal win 6-0 away from home, would or should be mentioned? FWIW, I can't even remember much talk about any game this season as just "filler" without it having some relevance to fixtures surrounding it. There's not a media bias against Aston Villa - and our fanbase is becoming a parody for banging on about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it - how do they overlook them? Both were described as incredible performances at the time. When else are they meant to discuss them? Why would bringing up a 7-2 victory over Liverpool have any sort of relevance to now/this season? When do you think it should all be mentioned? There's no agenda of big boys being impenetrable - it's utter nonsense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
