KHV Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Im stuck at work, how is Nzogbia playing??? Does he still look a bit short of fitness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CI Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 would anyone make any changes at half-time, say bring on one of the kids for gametime, now that we are winning 2-0. or just leave the team seeing that they are doing so well. i think i would leave it for now, but at 60mins, if its still 2-0, bring on a kid for some matchtime experience. they need to get into matches at some point, otherwise they'll never become part of the first team, except when we are desperate. No, stay as is, get a 3rd then take Emile off and bring a defender on and shut the shop down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 We still need a defensive midfielder and a solid winger. Thankfully atm we're playing against Blackburn who are very poor, but this shouldn't paper over the cracks. i agree with one of your posts :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowDoINotLikeThat Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Blackburn are awful Good half by Villa but Blackburn look like a team going down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlyOne Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Here we go again. People thinking I want my own club to lose. No, I just think we'll get punished against the better teams and that we shouldn't ignore our weak midfield regardless of the scoreline today.

P3te Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 we have an alarming tendancy not to show up after half time, so hopefully that doesnt happen today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NottingVilla Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Can the Mcleish apologists stop trying to score points please and watch the match. We've done ok but minimum requirement vs a Blackburn team who aren't just shiit they are not even trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Hierro Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Good, solid half from us. Petrov and Delph looking good in the middle. Delph strong in the tackle and precise with his short passing, Petrov with four adventurous forward passes inside the first 20 minutes, 3 of them hitting the target and 1 of them leading up to the 1-0 goal! Heskey and Gabby also playing well. Keep it up, Villa, looking very good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 the question is what AMC does now... does he sit back in the second half & protect the 2-0. or does he push on for a 3rd to kill the game, but leaves more chance of conceding? whats his usual tactics when he's winning?

I'm not his or heskey's biggest fan's but both have been excellent first half ( bar heskey's rapist touch ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done well so far, certainly better than ok in my book. And I'm no McLeish apologist, just your regular realist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When people going mental claiming rubbish team selection and negative tactics BEFORE the first home match, those who said "wait now, let's see how we play first" should be allowed to point out the flaws in the views posted.
