KaKa Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Williamson did nothing wrong for the 2nd booking tbf to him. Delph just lunged into him. The Butcher has spoken. He definitely obstructed him in a counter-attack. Knew exactly what he was doing IMO. If you watch it again Delph had a terrible touch, and it was an easy interception for Willo, but by God he is slow and badly co-ordinated. Managed to somehow miss the ball and almost kill Delph Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Positives - Don't appear to play much hoofball anymore. Negatives - We may not actually score this season. Not a completely unacceptable result but very disappointing as Villa are absolutely bobbins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leek Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Remember last year Ben Arfa won us this fixture, imagine if we had a player like him... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 The problem is you can see we have no ideas to attack other than counter. What's the tactics? Even hoofball would be better. At least the players would know what they need is to chase for the second ball. You can see all the players wandering around and do nothing. They simply don't know what to do. That's terrible. To me this match is even worse than the lose against Man City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Think Willo will miss the Gillingham game right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Cabella looks shit compared to Ben Arfa, didn't really do that much in dangerous positions apart from fling himself to the floor at every opportunity. Janmaat looks better than Debuchy on first couple games, didn't see enough of De Jong to form judgement, same with Perez but like the look of him from last game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jill Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 We'll have to get a sweepstake for the when/how of our first league goal. I'll go trickles in off Gouffran's arse, Hull (H). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevo Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Good to keep a clean sheet and get a point, but we really should have had all 3. Villa are average at best and we were definitely the better side in the second half. Janmaat looks very good going forward which is nice to see, and De Jong oozes class from the short spell he played. And as for Cabella diving around, he better cut that shit out of his game!

Interpolic Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 We'll have to get a sweepstake for the when/how of our first league goal. I'll go trickles in off Gouffran's arse, Hull (H). That could have easily been a 2-0 win for us today, so I reckon Crystal Palace in the first minute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Same as last season. Comfortable in possession but to scared to throw players forward and do anything with the ball in the final third. Pardew won't give our striker support and there is zero creativity because we don't possess anyone in the centre or wide right with creativity in them. Our most dangerous player was our right back. Solid purchase there at least. It is going to be a long, boring and depressing season once the enthusiasm wears off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Tell ya what, Pardew said we would attack this season and fans would get what they expected. There was some attacking and what I saw was expected, well done Pards you fucking cretin Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Garbage going forward. We create nowt. I'm not convinced at all by either Riviere or Cabella. We're good at tippy tappy from defence to midfield and back again though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
