jon_c Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 This is what gets me about watching football. Some people saying how great Ireland is. I've found myself screaming at him, for consistently giving the ball away with sloppy play, when in a good position. Thought Bannan has put in some lovely balls, others have said he's been gash. Ho-hum. Like to see Westwood on. But more 'cause I want a good look at him. than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic_bouma Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 lucky to be ahead after an awful first half... luckily southampton have been even worse.... has Lambert told them to hit it long as soon as they get the ball coz we are completely bypassing the midfield to try and hit benteke... what happened to the pass and move of the previous 2 games?... Guzan loves a long ball aswell... positives are that we cant play much worse but we really need to step it up in terms of quality of passing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coda Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Fairly even first half. Playing it long to Benteke too often for my liking. Need to impose our quality on Soton and we should be alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troglodyte Posted September 22, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted September 22, 2012 Hope we appeal that Yellow for Vlaar. Not even any contact. Have they changed the rules on appealing yellow cards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1974Centenary Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Half Time Scoreline = Good First Half Football = Boring, piss poor, like watching paint dry. At last a real definition of our play,having real trouble linking up with the front two,no consistency,lots of hard work on the plus side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted September 22, 2012 Moderator Share Posted September 22, 2012 Ireland was a mixed bag in the first half, some good things and some bad, but there was masses of energy to him - I'm presuming he's taken a knock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guzan loves a long ball aswell... positives are that we cant play much worse but we really need to step it up in terms of quality of passing Have to agree. Dreadful stuff. Painful viewing - even the goal was terrible. The only player with a football brain in the Villa side is Stephen Ireland, everyone else consistently choses the wrong option and then fails to execute the pass. The 'passing' is as bad as I've seen. Very lucky to be ahead. Need a big improvement in the basics in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niall Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Don't understand that change. Ireland was doing well, I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
