Aston Villa 4-1 Newcastle United - 19/04/2025

[BGRM]

4-1 and hit the woodwork 3 times. Terrible second half, look knackered.

[JigsawGoesToPieces]

These could have had 7 today tbf

 

3rd time hit woodwork

[andycap]

Cannot press when two of your front three are just walking around and playing poorly. 

Then you sling in what feels like 20 odd corners and everyone of them is shit. 

 

[J7]

All the little weaknesses of our players have been exposed today.

They should have 3/4 before the break. Cant complain one bit.

I disagree with this

[SAK]

Almost five.

[Bimpy474]

Shows Villa's depth is far better than ours, as it should be really i suppose.

[andyman]

We couldn't complain even if they won 8-1 today

There's nothing to rotate

Disagree. Willock, Gordon, Miley, Krafth could have given us fresh legs. We're going to have to learn how to rotate next season being in Europe.

Could have gone for loans like others but didn’t.

We've not been as bad as the scoreline appears, Villa's been very lucky and had loads of help from a ref who ignores any fouls they've committed. Just one of those days.

 Villa soon realised the ref wasn’t going punish them.

Nah we've fucked ourselves and got what we deserved. 

 

Pretty much everybody miles off the pace. Not sure who emerges with any credit, Tino maybe and it's a good job Pope's been awake or it might have been six or seven by now

What’s the point of bringing on Wilson ffs. He literally can’t move, may as well be down to 10

They hit the bar and post.  Should have had 3 atleast.

Okey  I recommend watching the highlights afterwards.

[Billy Warthog]

All their players have been up for it. We have had too many passengers. And it now shows. 

 

See how we bounce back from this v Ipswich, I suppose.

A game that perfectly highlights the difference in their squad to ours btw. We can only dream of making the changes they can.

Nope a game which highlights home advantage an extra days rest and a Saudi bailout. Don't over react the squad they have is borrowed and nothing special and extremely expensive. 

 

The way they deal with ffp is short term gambles we are more pragmatic about things.

We beat them in our last three games, with an aggregate score of 11-2.

Our manager is also in hospital 

[High Five o]

Straight back to earth.

 

I think we pay the price for the same starting lineup 7 games in a row today.
 

Tactically outclassed .

Apart from Gordon, it pretty much is a massive step down. We really don't have much of a squad worth rotating atm. That'll likely change this summer.
