We really should be beating these. No Bamford or Phillips. Our bench needs the likes of Traore and Bailey back.

who else would you have on there? I don't think Targett/Axel missing makes a difference. Or Trez or AEG. Traore and bailey to come in.

Really rather depends on why they are the obvious first choice.

If it's because they all scored four goals each in a 44-0 win the week before then it's undoubtedly a good thing.

If you've got only eleven fit players, then it's a bad thing.

I cannot believe Leeds are playing a single "striker" up top who is all of 5 feet tall, and having him run in behind Mings and Konsa. Blatant disrespect of their ability (or lack thereof).. but unfortunately working at the moment.

Coutinho and McGinn are anonymous - we're playing with 9 players.

Agreed, I was thinking Coutinho would have to come off at half time he has been so far off the pace. But that's a superb goal. Great assist from Cash too.

We seem to work really hard for our goals, but give them away way to easily. 

Defensively we look all over the place - We cant handle the movement, and playing DM in a game like this is way above Luiz paygrade

Watkins doesnt seem cute enough for this team

Without wanting to make excuses for them I think part of the problem is that Leeds aren't really playing with a striker and both of our centre backs are struggling with their positioning because of it.

To be fair to Mings and Konsa, James is getting on their shoulder but there's no pressure on the player putting him in.

Really entertaining half of football, esp if you ignore the first 10 mins. I can’t believe Jales won that header for their second. Need to see it again, but… how?

Phill and JJ just on the same wavelength, it’s a thing of beauty to see.

Post by: brontebilly on February 09, 2022, 08:56:21 PM
Mings getting beaten in air by James is embarrassing. Digne then misses a sitter a minute later at opposite end after a great run by Mings. Mad game but we are really struggling to control it.

Thought Coutinho was miles off the pace first 25-30 mins but complete class since. Magical assist for the second. Ramsey, the goal scoring midfielder we have been missing for years.

But...we simply have to play a lot better without the ball in second half. Any of Luiz, McGinn, Watkins or Mings could be taken off at half time without complaint.

Brilliant going forward.  Defensively a car crash

Who us or Leeds?

Both.  Gerrard ought to be furious with the defenders.  Poorest I've seen Konsa play for a long time.

This could honestly be repeat of the 5 - 5 with Forest

That was certainly entertaining.   Thought JJ and Phil were brilliant.

We seem to work really hard for our goals, but give them away way to easily. 

Defensively we look all over the place - We cant handle the movement, and playing DM in a game like this is way above Luiz paygrade

Watkins doesnt seem cute enough for this team

Agree with all of that.

Those Cuotihino - Ramsey goals, havent celebrated so much for as long as I can remember. All about couthino and couthino and ramsey.
Leeds are very dangerous all the time I think , can sense the danger every time when they come running, and we dont seem able to stop them effectively, based on that I m not very optimistic about the 2. half, its how we have lost to them two? last? times at villa park I think
Commentator said it was the best 1. half he had seen all year :)

He’s better than either of them on this evidence, and they were both quality especially Merson. That bit of skill for our second goal is one of the best things I’ve seen a Villa player do. The goal was superb and the assist for the third was very tidy. Well done Ramsey too, especially for our third, breaking through and a top finish.

this sums up the hole SG era so far for me - lots of promise, but still the nagging sense that this isn't going to work out quite right

I honestly think he is MON Mark II.

Lots of passion, runs up and down the touchline, senior player(s) say how great he is, lots of money spent on wages, focus on how good one or two players have improved and the results and performances especially don't match the fucking hype

Douglas Luiz casual and they have another set piece.  Not good enough.

I've defended him on here but he has been a joke tonight. Far from the only one. Most of our players have been poor/rotten. Leeds are missing their three best players.

If they're going to start giving yellow cards to players trying to stop goalies kicking the ball back down field after a corner, there are going to be a lot of yellows.

Ah, maybe an elbow?

That second half performance was dire. Great 15 at the end of the first half though. Watkins offers nothing at present. Doug's been poor. Set pieces both attacking and defending were largely poor. McGinn invisible.
