brummie Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Genuinely wouldn't swap Martinez for any keeper anywhere in the world. He's so important to us. Anyway, still 100% against Bayern. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kroos was so crucial to their ad-hoc build up play. French lads in the middle need to step up. And Mbappe causes more questions than answers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Martinez is proper clutch like, some career considering he didn't properly start playing until about 5 years ago Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Watching Martinez tonight made me even more angry that we had the Man United loving, big lugged prick between the sticks for the Milan game last season. Cost us that game and many more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just on-pitch, it's what he brings to the team mentally. Him, Tyrone Mings, McGinn, they are a solid psychological spine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnbull2000 Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Villa are looking capable of what we weren't - Champions League campaign and another top 4-6 performance in the league. Think they'll finish 10-15 points ahead of us season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 4 hours ago, Pata said: Ah, it's spring already? Lots can happen between now and then, but there are three differences IMO which suggest Turnbull has a good chance of being correct: 1) they have better depth outside their starting XI than we did 2) Emery actually uses his substitutes a bit more 3) their system isn't as reliant on pressing quite so much. Let's see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a kuttke hope that we couldve won that game as they had already lost in ligue 1 that season. Bayern hadn't lost a group stage match since 2017. There record in the UCL is just better in general than PSG. Both equally great achievements. 8 hours ago, Turnbull2000 said: Villa are looking capable of what we weren't - Champions League campaign and another top 4-6 performance in the league.

Also didn't Jacob Ramsey go off injured during their match... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'll perform better than we did in Europe last year, but I have that down to the fact they've got a bigger squad and this ridiculous format. Whilst they're smashing Young Boys, we were playing PSG, Milan and fucking Dortmund. Twice. Not to take anything away from the result last night, mind. They were excellent.

Lilewise they have atleast 4 more games than us currently. If we count the inevitable knock out stages for them. Talking about their league performances that is, which can get impacted by more games.

Erikse Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 They won't get the same amount of freak injuries as we did, so that also helps them.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
