B-more Mag Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Hopefully now we'll get some more games on TV over here. Was happy to follow on gamecast but this kind of win could get us more games in the states. Great freakin' win. It was on foxsoccer.tv broadband. Not as good as teevee but works.

Mick Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Can't see why Nolan gets the stick. Good player for our club at the moment IMO. You can't watch him much, we had a lot of ball which went to waste because he was so slow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakka Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Routlede was shite today mind , He dopes not know when too cross a ball , and when he does get the chance he does not know how to cross it That's harsh. I think he used his pace well and got in to good positions. He did fanny around on the ball too much for my liking once in good positions and some of his crosses were blocked. Still very useful player for our team as he gets the opposition on the back foot. He linked up well with others too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Thing about Nolan is that he has the best eye for goal in the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Anyway, do you reckon that caretaker manager will get the Villa job then? No. In hindsight should have played a defensive mid, probably Reo-Coker. People were mentioning before the start of the games (somewhere) that Ireland may not settle alongside Petrov, so maybe it should have been one or the other. Albrighton (like he said) ran out of steam, but was a threat and was right to be selected. Jose though schooled him for the entire game. Jose looks solid with that GI joe haircut like.

Dave Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Thing about Nolan is that he has the best eye for goal in the team. It's cos Hughton motivates him with food, like Kung Fu Panda. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 If we have to talk negatives let's be honest there were really only two - Harper conceding the penalty and Shola demonstrating the raw ambulatory prowess of a municipal courthouse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I agree. When Nolan scores, he contributes. When he doesn't score, he's pretty much invisible. I think we'd be much better off if someone like Ben Arfa came in and improved our overall team play since that'll contribute to us creating more chances and controlling more of the ball. Nolan tried today but when he sets off on a run it's as if time is standing still. We were getting outplayed before Barton's screamer, and Nolan was a big factor. It's like playing with 10 men. But on set pieces he's dangerous and because Villa couldn't cope with Carroll there were chances for him to mooch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 We're quite good with set pieces. Must be the first time we've been good at set pieces since before SBR's time because I remember us always getting bullied at them with the midgets we had in our team then.

geordiemonster Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Just back from the game. Totally unexpected, but totally deserved result - Villa are not bad team at all, but we made them look ordinary. Only negatives were Harper's dodgy kicks and Guiterez who didn't look on top form. Other than that we can take only positives into the next game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Thing about Nolan is that he has the best eye for goal in the team. Pity it takes him so long to get near it, we lost loads of really good posession in the first half when he was played in and coudln't get to the ball before the opposition, even when he was in pole position.

Hmm, Harper was possibly the 'weakest' part of that team performance. Some of his kicking was terrible. After he had kicked it, he went through the motion of kicking again and again, so there must be something up with his hamstring or something. Other bad parts were the Ref's inconsistent booking (unless you wore a Toon shirt and you'd get a yellow). And finally, Jonás was poor again (even in a good team showing). I'm finally fed up of him standing still waiting for the ball to be passed into his feet. The guy needs to learn to make forward runs off the ball!
