Thank fuck that we put ourselves in a position where we could take this battering. Onward and upward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is I think we win at least 3 games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucasol Posted Saturday at 18:52 Share Posted Saturday at 18:52 Reminds me of the 3-0 in the 22/23 season. Lost to Villa, took our medicine and beat Spurs (6-1), Everton away (4-1) and Southampton (3-1). We’ve had a 9 game winning streak and a 5 game winning streak. Let’s give Ipswich a chasing next week and kick on into Brighton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HayDen Traces Posted Saturday at 18:53 Share Posted Saturday at 18:53 6pts from this week aint bad at all. Would have taken a point today before KO but not to be. Most teams wont leave Villa Park with much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted Saturday at 18:53 Share Posted Saturday at 18:53 It’s an odd fixture this one because essentially home the team usually batters the away team most times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUICE690 Posted Saturday at 18:54 Share Posted Saturday at 18:54 (edited) It's funny because you feel like games between us should be more even and yet, we just batter each other. Edited Saturday at 18:54 by JUICE690 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted Saturday at 18:54 Share Posted Saturday at 18:54 Great game to watch when we were still in it. Too much stuff not coming off for us, the little passes/bits of craft just not quite on it. Bruno and Joelinton not their usual selves. Isak gaging for a goal. It happens and Villa were great. Got off to a flyer and could have absolutely roasted us with a little more luck. Still third (until Monday—c’mon yee Spurs!). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted Saturday at 18:57 Share Posted Saturday at 18:57 Team selection was a tough one there, like. If the players all appeared fit to play, it's tough to change a team that's been playing so brilliantly. Think the issue was more tactical anyway, as KI says. Worth emphasising that their subs won it; they've recruited so well and Emery's getting great performances out of one or two unfancied players. Rogers in particular is absolutely superb and I thought McGinn, Kamara and Watkins were all brilliant too. Painful one. The run was always gonna end at some point and I'm worried about the boss not being around to pick up the pieces. Big game next week now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted Saturday at 18:57 Share Posted Saturday at 18:57 They didn't play their usual comedy high line sadly so looks like Emery has learnt from our previous games against them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted Saturday at 18:58 Share Posted Saturday at 18:58 Strange game for us, Villa looked more up for it right from the off, and the scoreline could have been a lot worse. Bad day at the office, put it down to experience, and move on. Hopefully Spurs do us a little favour Monday night and Man City take a point against Villa, and we go into next Saturdays match still in 3rd, and get back on track.

Stifler Posted Saturday at 18:58 Share Posted Saturday at 18:58 1 minute ago, r0cafella said: We've sold miggy and Kelly we will be active in the summer. Would you have used the summer budget to get loans who will sit on the bench? My point is that Villa have used the transfer market to bring players in who are fresh. We haven’t, that’s the difference. Villa might just be able to have that edge in a game that is tight against a similarly talented side. We learnt nothing from today’s game aside from what we already know. Our squad depth isn’t good enough, it isn’t good enough to bring players on towards the end of games, and it’s not good enough to turn the tide in games. If we don’t address it in the summer, then it will get worse with us having European football next season, and some of our older members of the squad being a year older. In the wider context I don’t think we have helped ourselves with things like Miggy being held on the bench for 6 months instead of selling him in the summer, and for giving Dubs a new contract when we should have been showing him the door and had a good offer for him. Now do I think Wilson has shown anything for the last 12-18 months of being here why he should be getting those minutes at the end of games instead of trying to give our youngster (Osula) a chance instead. I also think being 4-0 up against Crystal Palace at half time should have triggered some changes as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted Saturday at 18:59 Share Posted Saturday at 18:59 Not that they didn’t deserve the win but two really crucial goals at 0-0 and 2-1 came from fucking awful deflections as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
