Aston Villa (A) 21/9: Build-Up & Match Thread

[Squeak]

Semedo booked. Having a torrid time again. Similar to his performance v Newcastle

That cross to nowhere set up RAN's yellow. Quite what he was thinking is beyond me.

 

[Leigh Griffiths' Hairline]

They are when they stop the opposing team breaking away.

I agree. But he was deep within the Villa half and miles away from goal and any semblance of a break. Never a yellow.

 

[Jinky]

Throw in on the edge of their box by Semedo & two passes later it’s back on the halfway line with Dawson.

9.8 for that dive from Digne. Beautiful tuck position & landing.

It was a nasty tackle

 

[Leigh Griffiths' Hairline]

Pathetic from Digne, Gomes barely touched him.

 

[Squeak]

It was a nasty tackle

Not for me. Caught him with his trailing knee and Digne being the uber cunt he is, milks it. Arguable yellow for diving in Gomes. That's his game though.

 

[The Bear]

This setup is working today. It's still hard to see which of Lemina/Cunha/Andre is 9laying where as they are all moving around a lot.

JRB is staying further right, and Gomes is sitting in front of defence. Pretty fluid other than that though.
