We actually try and apply a bit of a press in this strikerless diamond formation.

Least athletic player I’ve ever seen. Only player who gets close is his brother.

Us not having a midfield looks like a fairly obvious issue.

Could be a back four with Hayden in midfield? I know, I know…

Am I the only one who though we played pretty well? One mistake from Walker and a shite clearance from Mount away from another very solid win and performance.

Btw are we going to be one of those teams where opposition think the best way to beat us is kick us off the park now? Seems to be every team we come up against us trying to bully us.

Rice/Phillips combination is getting better and better.

Or, you know… Foden, Rashford and Sancho are injured.

Can’t see this ending 11 v 11

Been some decent play into the midfield/forwards but then poor decision making at the end. Think we’ll get it right eventually.

He is very good when he plays this aggressively.

He did assist the first goal the other night tbf

It’s been a tragic game, but it really doesn’t matter what happens in these games.

Well this has been a hard watch . Andorra just booting us off the pitch to waste time.

Playing pretty well considering Southgate has ruined these players.

Absolutely loved the silencing of the crowd. Get fucked you racist cunts.

Got to the first final since 1966, but yeah. Absolutely ruined them.

Aston Villa fans: June/July: Why isn't Grealish starting? September: Why is Grealish starting?

Everyone’s spending shitloads of money and we’ve literally only made a loan signing permanent

Grealish is good.

SPL probably going to be about his level tbh.

Yeah of course, but this is a very similar standard overall. There's not a single decent player in it and it's a horrible system with a terrible manager.

Honestly not even sure I've seen a worse NUFC starting XI in my lifetime. We had better teams in the champo.

I like Hayden but he has been misused for some time now as a kind of box to box player. He is incapable of making contributions in the final third so it makes absolutely no sense. Should be used as a DM only but we seemingly prefer to play… Jonjo Shelvey there instead. The biggest problem with getting rid of him is that we won’t sensibly replace him.

Who’s playing right wing for Villa? They could have a field day against Ritchie and Fernandez.
