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


Recommended Posts

Gonna slag the performance, but not the overall. Still in a fantastic position in what is a fantastic season up to this point.

 

No need to overreact to this when you look at everything.

Who would you have dropped and who for?

 

We've been beaten by the better team today. It happens move on. Playing Krafth, Longstaff, Miley won't have changed that

So it's better to lose with our best XI on paper on the field, even if they're showing signs of fatigue?

Villa are simply superior on their own patch. We've beaten them and they've now beaten us. 

 

It's not a disaster, just makes things a bit tighter for the last 5 games. We're still in a good position. 

 

Only thing we can do now is make sure we put in a good performance v Ipswich, finish as high as we can (hopefully UCL) and build in the summer. Things aren't that bad! 

 

But yeah, forget about today.

Villa are fast in transition and we let them cut through us with ease, too many players looked off today and were more of a bunch of 11 players rather than a team, no one showing for anyone and players running into dead ends, looking isolated all over the pitch. Fair play to Villa, they know how to play a ref and he's swallowed it in front of a baying crowd, but even without his help I think they've done enough to win this one.

 

Most importantly we did the hard work last week that keeps us in 3rd and 4th at the very worst after this match week. We go again next week against Ipswich and this will all be forgotten as we stay in the top 4 for another week.

Yes it is. If. say Bruno, is tired, I wouldn't have a problem with him starting on the bench, even if the quality drops on paper.

 

 

 

You absolutely would have a problem if Bruno was benched for one of our biggest games in the run in :lol:

 

You can play the hindisght card but this place would have been up in arms if we'd started Longstaff, Miley, Krafth for this game and lost :lol:

This was a home advantage win for Villa. Reverse that and we're winning it (and we did), no doubt in my mind. We've just let them play their game.

We've not even let them play their game. We've played right into their hands. 

 

Properly naive performance to be frank.

Better to lose with our best XI on paper than lose with not our best XI? Yes

No need to indeed. But FFS we had one (hopefully WUM) clown on here saying that it's time to change managers, and calling us all happy clappers, after we beat Liverpool.

Pretty much, only 3 away wins in our games (now 4) since 2007.
