Aston Villa (H) 06/05: Build-Up & Match Thread

[WsWolf]

He still has pace, it just takes him longer to reach top speed seemingly. Legs going like bees wings.

He doesn't. He had a clear run at goal and was caught up within 40 yards by a bloke who wor even quick at his peak, 15 years ago.

 

[Jinky]

Amazed they didn’t get a penalty there. This is one of those occasions where you say “the ref has given them everything” and it’s actually true.

Disgusting performance from Atwell so far. Bloke is a complete cretin.

 

[Alan]

we need to step up more in the second and try to keep possession for longer than 2 sec

I don’t think we’re aiming to lose it cheaply on purpose tbf.

 

[The Bear]

I just don’t need to hear “six of one, half a dozen of the other” every time there’s a foul.

Just had a look. It's Courtney Sweetman-Kirk again.

She did our last match too IIRC.

Ashley Young wasn't/isn't quick?

Aye, definitely had her recently.

Like, she’s fine. Not getting much help from her partner tbf. But woof, the clichés.

Oatley also just sets the bar quite high IMO. For commentary in general, not just amongst the women doing it.

 

[Dire Wolf]

I don't know how we've held on here, there's been some heart in the mouth moments at the back. But we've put bodies on the line and worked hard to hang on which is several levels up from last week.

Has there? Only the Watkins header straight at Sa i can think of?

HT: Wolves 1-0 Aston Villa

Aston Villa have a record of W0, D1, L9 when trailing at half-time in the Premier League this season.

#jinx

 

[Wolvensam]

Is the D1 from when we were at their place?

 

[The Bion]

Oh boo, Traore's off

 

[Freddeno]

Lets hope Sa does play it simple and not hold it invite pressure, play a shitty pass and screw it up

 

[Del Woppio]

Costa should be scoring there

 

[Wolvensam]

Oh Diego, got to score there

 

[The Bear]

Terrible effort. Always go far corner.

 

[Freddeno]

yeah, just finish a bit more to the left and half a meter up

 

[The Bear]

Piss off Ramsey. Tiny clip as he fell against a boot. Glad the ref never stopped that as there's naff all wrong with him

 

[Freddeno]

Atwell wtf, Toti did nothing wrong there

 

[t3ch]

How is that not given

 

[Freddeno]

McGinn should begin every game with a yellow, mandatory
