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

What the fuck was Semedo doing then

 

[Jack Regan]

Gonna regret not taking advantage of how shit Villa have been in this first half.

 

[Squeak]

We are so frustrating with those balls into the box.... just can't pick a gold shirt.... just hope we aren't going to be made to pay for these missed opportunities.

 

[The Bear]

We're playing really well, but 1-0 isn't enough to show for this sort of dominance.

Yeah - it’s so obvious. We need a second goal. It’s got early second half equaliser written all over it.

Not when you can't keep a clean sheet

I'm hoping not. I'm hoping this is the day a HT team talk is so effective we come out and score again

Just after the HT Doc for RAN substitution

 

[jd1981]

Nice surprise after just checking the score and reports, nevertheless we probably still need another goal to get just a point.

 

[Squeak]

Kin hell Mosq. Give us all a heart attack eh?

 

[Leigh Griffiths' Hairline]

Good performance. We really might regret not getting another one in this half given how dominant we have been. Especially in the last ten minutes and how bad Villa have been.

Don't fuck it up in the second half lads

 

[prawnking]

Arrogant prick Emery walking down the tunnel a minute before the half ends

 

[Templeton Peck]

Excellent first half. Very dominant.

 

[Haggstone]

played them off the park a bit there didn't we. Blimey.

 

[Deano]

Very good half. Restricted them to pretty much nothing and caused a threat a few times. The CBs have been excellent as has Andre who I don't think has wasted the ball once again. Villa can't be that bad 2nd half and I expect they'll make subs at half time so we will probably need another.

Psyching himself up to give each of his players a slap when they walk through the changing room door if he's got any sense.

 

[Tony Towner]

GON needs to make the correct subs at the right time. We only have another 15/20 minutes left at this intensity with the same players. I look at the bench though and I'm not sure they are there.

 

[sycophantia]

Excellent. Tricky bit coming up, dont come out after the break half asleep, don't make shit subs GON.

I'd love it if we'd thrashed a 2nd in just as he was getting to the door

Shame we made zero attempt to take advantage of playing two or three minutes with an extra man.
