Gestede up front. Let's see how he does. I just hope we don't lump it up to him because we did that last year with Benteke and it was an utter waste of time. Anyway, I have no idea what team can win so let's hope it is this one

442 so.

There is a lot of attacking impetus on the bench, so I expect an absolute storming second half!

It's similar or possibly the same as the side that finished against Newcastle and he was quite effective with players buzzing around his knock downs. That might be what Garde is thinking. Plus we got some decent crosses into him from deeper positions.

Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: KRS on December 26, 2015, 02:25:51 PM
Garde is obviously trying to tighten things up at the back and in the middle...but its the lack of the quality players that are the problem so he can't afford the luxury of playing Gil, Grealish or Traore.

Personally I'd try Traore through the middle with Ayew just off him...he gets criticised for not passing and not being a team player, but we all know he can beat a man for fun so if we just get the ball to his feet with just a central defender to beat then surely he's guaranteed to score goals. Am I the only one that can see this or am I missing something?

Hope we don't get sucked into a game of who can win the most headers between Gestede and Collins today.

Westwood and Sanchez frees up Veretout, who at the moment looks better than Gil, Grealish or Traore.

Think it will be more like a 'diamond' in midfield with Veretout pushed on.  I do have to say that it is not a particularly inspiring line up but let's see how it goes.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: aj2k77 on December 26, 2015, 02:27:16 PM
With that midfield and forward line goals will always be a massive problem.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: curiousorange on December 26, 2015, 02:27:34 PM
Ayew leading the line with Traore behind him sounds ace to me. So of course, Gestede gets the gig.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: Toronto Villa on December 26, 2015, 02:28:56 PM
What Traore needs to learn is losing the ball and winning it back is every bit as important as what he might do with it. If there is one thing Barcelona are simply outstanding at is getting the ball back quickly when a play breaks down. It's a very underrated part of their game because it is so easy to focus on the ball retention and more glamorous aspects of their overall production. We can't afford that right now so the entire squad needs to work harder for 90 minutes.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: KRS on December 26, 2015, 02:32:59 PM
I agree but would Traore work any less than Gestede in making an effort to win the ball back? I'm not sure its even possible!

The way to beat West Ham is play it on the deck as their central defender cloggers will soak up our inaccurate crosses into the box all day long without breaking sweat.

Garde can work on tightning it up all he likes but we won't win games without one or more of Gill, Greslish or Traore on the pitch

Especially at home he's got to send a team out to win rather than not lose

But then he will argue bring tight and bringing Traore on is the way forward. We shall see but the 442 diamond I'd something he seemed to play a lot at Lyon so we should not be surprised. Gestede deserved to start after his display last week too.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: ChicagoLion on December 26, 2015, 02:46:27 PM
A very conservative line up again, I think the plan is to keep it tight and try to get into the game.
This is a pretty poor team and why we are struggling.

Not sure where the width is, playing four naturally inclined central midfield players. Asking a lot of Hutton and Bacuna to maraud up and down the wings for 95 minutes.

Yup. Traore should also learn that he doesn't have to insist on picking up the ball at the half way line. After all the excitement of signing him, I'm still not sure if he's raw talent or just an expensive circus act.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs West Ham match thread
Post by: ozzjim on December 26, 2015, 02:55:26 PM
I agree with that. Take out say Westwood and put in one of the 3, you lose the midfield if they go with 451. Plus Veretout might get chances to be much more advanced.

oh, don't get me wrong: I agree but Garde also has to get stability, and he has to work out how to get the best out of his creative players. I'd like to see one of the three creatives get at least 25 minutes today.

I've seen a game like this hundreds of times before, we look alright but with no killer instinct and you just know they'll score first without even being the better side.

What a loss not having Amavi is.

It has nothing to do with Hutton being caught way out of position again. That's probably the third or fourth game Hutton has been responsible for conceding a goal. He works damn hard every game but some of his positioning is shocking.

Not a lot. To be honest this has always been the start of "our run" for me, I always thought we could start something today with the next few fixtures coming up, if we lose this or even draw it's surely all over.

substitution has further weakened the right flank, should have left Westwood where he was.

At least he was offering some protection to Hutton.

Need to drop Veretout deeper next to Gueye and Westwood back on right.

Ayew will get us a goal

The problem is what can Garde do? Gil comes on we think we have a better chance of scoring but of course he's crap at tracking back and we're 1-0 down.

It's the same as people clamouring for Traore to start (to be honest I probably would now as we're screwed anyway), yes he's a danger but the little shape and organisation we have goes out the window.

Our defence is shocking though.

I do hope that the faith that we are showing in Garde being a long term answer is justified. Because right now, even though he was dealt a really shit hand, as a tactician he is showing himself to be little better than Sherwood. I'm all for talking a great game and saying the right things because the things he has said are all true. I just don't see any progress at all, and I fully accept much of that is down to the available talent and vacuum of confidence at the club caused by the previous manager.

First half against Leicester was the best we've played all season.  But to be honest, it's all just equally crap.  I'd like to see some sort of improvement from Garde, but he seems equally clueless tbh.

I suppose that sums up life in the shit lane. West Ham had done absolutely nothing and should have been behind on that performance. We were bossing it and searching for a goal, under no pressure at all. One injury and it goes to shit.

You can't blame Garde. The real problem we have is that we went into the season with only two full backs - one of which is Hutton and the other is now out for the duration - and only 4 proper midfielders.

We are not. We are just still making silly mistakes

I'd say we look a little more organised, a little less frightened of the ball but still hamstrung by.

1. Guzan in goal
2. Unable to play a settled back 4 with first choice players in their proper positions (even though gobshite had allegedly promised Richards he could play centre back if he wanted)
3. A lack of a focal point to the attack that isn't an ent.

1 and 3 can be rectified from Jan 1st.
He needs Richards fit to come back in at right back and decide if Bennett, Cissokho or A.N. Other is the left back he wants until the end of the season.

Unfortunately a lack of 6 points from this afternoon and Monday will render it all definitely meaningless instead of quite probably meaningless.

My concern is that all this pushing forward will catch us on the break. We have to make this possession count and score again.

We might as well go for it now, another draw isn't of much use, 20 minutes to kick start mission impossible.

I'll send him at text to let him know it's time.  He likes to0 think he's his own man, so he might hold of a couple of minutes.

I really wish Garde would be a bit more aggressive and bring on Traore or Grealish.

Right now it appears us and Sunderland are nailed on to go down. When you consider how both sides have done over the past few seasons and especially last, we both deserve it.
