joeyt Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 (edited) 15 mins into a game Villa are a goal down and yet look most likely to win it Incredible levels of clutching Edited December 26, 2024 by joeyt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 Are you ok David Edgar? Like seriously? Genuinely a bit worried about you and your constant negativity even when it’s not called for. Do you need a hug? Or have you been kicked in the head by a horse or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 Looking back at the first goal, we would not be scoring that goal with Burn at left back. Hall bombing on the overlap confuses Cash giving Gordon plenty of time and space to pick his spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 You lot are ridiculously precious. Bless. Not repeating myself. It would've been a very hard game 11 v 11. Toss of a coin from what I saw unfold between Gordon scoring and Duran seeing red. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have been bombing down the touch line for little personal reward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like it was going wide, or at best on to the post without so I reckon should have been an own goal. Didn't affect anything but probably was something VAR missed. I presume they assumed it went in off Bruno and didn't check for anything else. Yeah just watched this and you’re right, VAR got it wrong as Bruno wouldn’t have been the scorer and therefore not a ‘factual’ handball Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 11 v 11 we still win that. Playing against 10 changes mindset and intensity, mind some of the chances and situations we fluffed were hilarious Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 Was that villa coach that got sent off the one with the shoulder length blonde hair? He really fucking annoys me even though I've never spoken to him, heard him speak or know anything about him. Definitely a twat though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toss of a coin from what I saw unfold between Gordon scoring and Duran seeing red. They had one or two nice patterns of play in the first half hour that resulted in nothing, but beyond that we did most of the running. I genuinely interesting in what you saw that makes you think it was a coin toss of a game at the point we where 1-0 up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the leap that a 10-15min minute period after conceding that they're looking more likely to win the game They played well after conceding first against us last season and got battered 5-1.

Lush Vlad Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 Emery going bananas about the red and saying they’ll appeal. Might be wrong. But I don’t remember many genuine protests from their players. Duran and the rest of them all knew he was guilty. Genuinely don’t know what the fuck people are seeing. Had all the time in the world to get out the way. Thought the left was accidental at first, but that looks worse the more you see it. The right is not even up for debate IMO. Also, this whole ‘did he mean to’ (he clearly did) is kind of irrelevant, no? Plenty of studs up and stamp type tackles often don’t seem deliberate. But are still red cards. Curtis Jones last year at Spurs. Sadio Mane one year on Ederson for a high boot are examples that spring straight to mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely interesting in what you saw that makes you think it was a coin toss of a game at the point we where 1-0 up. Mainly that their press has us pushed deep and they were starting to control more territory. We were finding it hard to keep the ball and also progress it. Then about ten minutes before the sending off, we definitely got a better handle on things. But when I made the post, the game had definitely swung towards Villa looking very strong even being a goal down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted December 26, 2024 Share Posted December 26, 2024 Just had a couple of pints with a staunch Villa fan. In short since they beat us 3:0 EH has learned and the only manager that’s had UE’s number. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been expecting Villa to get found out by other managers for a while, I thought it would happen last season but no other team seems able to exploit their high line like we do.
