If it is, I retract my previous comment. I assumed it was because there were 3 centre backs.

Post by: Beard82 on March 17, 2024, 01:11:38 PM
I saw Duran and assumed Watkins hadn't made it, but we're playing them both. Exciting.I know I saw that and thought it couldn't be right, so I counted the number of starters we had just incase it was a typo.
Looking forward to seeing this. Certainly not what I was expecting

Blimey! I don’t see this ending 0-0.

Yeah, does look like we'll either get a stuffing or batter them.
Post by: SoccerHQ on March 17, 2024, 01:12:34 PM
Digne is unlucky to be not starting but I guess Unai likes Moreno.
Moreno has to start if we're playing Konsa the other side. No good putting loads of attackers out if we have no full backs to support them.
It's a very interesting team. You get the feeling Ollie isn't 100% so could be a really good call to get Duran out there to occupy their CBs and reduce the workload on Ollie.
Astounded though Diaby isn't starting after his best game in ages on Thursday. Rogers is still getting up to speed with the prem so not sure on that call or Lenglet ahead of Carlos at CB as Antonio has looked decent since his return from injury so don't want him causing issues as that will open up more space for Bowen and Kudus.
Don't think this will be 0-0, can see a 3-2 either way.

Presumably Diego Carlos isn't fit enough to be risked as a starter. Emery said it was a hamstring issue Thursday night so it's surprising he's even made the bench.

Midfield options are threadbare. McGinn and Kamara are a massive miss of strength. Surprised he didn't pick Tim. West Ham are a big physical outfit.
....who are good at set pieces. Hence big Jhonny D starting.
Post by: coreyfeldman on March 17, 2024, 01:26:13 PM
Slightly crazy line up that, if Tim isn't starting now then it's hard to understand when he will. Two other youngsters preferred ahead of him in another change of shape.
Tim has far far less first team minutes this season than either of the other two though. He will certainly play minutes today

I moaned last week about about 5 at the back and a negative outlook this week it’s 2 up front so we are looking to take the game to them
The Reason the centre of midfield looks weak is because we have got no one else left to play there, not a lot you can do about that

Yep midfield looking a bit lightweight. But maybe we’re playing a long ball blitz through Big John a la Wimbledon late 80s.
Ultimately Tim isn't quite as good as people are making out. Emery gave him a start in Europa and was bigging him up in the press but since then been back on the bench.
With Ramsey I just think it's a case of we don't want to rush him back today just to lose him then for another six weeks as that is basically the season so save him for the Wolves game.

Having Duran and Watkins on will give us a bit more physical clout. Should be interesting.
That's the theory but Watkins has never looked comfortable with a forward next to him. Big show
of faith in Duran but think we should have gone with Diaby and 433 451, 2 up top is a crazy decision . Luiz is going to have to play the game of his life today in midfield.
Will never agree with any decision to start Konsa at RB. Ridiculous decision to drop Cash. This is back to MON territory picking Cuellar at RB. Don't agree with picking Moreno ahead of Digne either, Moreno was average at best during the week. Stunned with that decision.

Not in this game he doesn’t
It’s a difficult one if you put him in instead of Rogers, it’s a negative move so people like me who are always banging on about being positive Can’t really complain.
The only other thing you could maybe do is put Cash in right back and move Konsa into the centre, then play Tim without Rogers that way you still got the attacking intent
But as it is I’m not complaining because it’s a positive if interesting Line up

People saying Rogers playing well, i just can't see it
He had some nice interplay with Luiz earlier, had a good run and shot, but the whole team has lost it's way the last 15 minutes or so.

Rogers is totally out of his depth. Lower Championship player at best
That's not the impression I'm getting. I think he's yet to properly slot into our system though. He's been treading on Ollie's toes a bit, but I have liked the couple of times when he's moved into the centre and driven forward. He still needs to learn the defensive side of that left wing forward role though.

Moreno you are fucking shite.
He definitely hasn't fully recovered from his injury yet, so until he does, Digne needs to be starting.
What a rubbish half of football from us. Crap tactics from Unai again, and it's becoming a bit too common for me nowadays.
Lenglet and Tielemens aren't quite good enough to start Premier League games. Not against anyone decent anyway.
Konsa at right back rarely works, and he should always be in the centre with Torres. If you don't like Cash, you should have bought a ready to start right back in January, Unai.
Duran, Rogers....not for me just yet.
I expect more from Ollie, Dougie and Bailey when things aren't clicking for us. More talking, more drive.
All in all, wank.

Giving the ball away, with no real pressure lead to the goal, bur we've done in 6 or 7 times. Konsa weak as anything for the goal.
Created nothing as we're slower than a tectonic plate I'm moving the ball. West Ham throttling space and packing 11 men behind the ball.
It needs a massive change in attitude, application and effort half time or we'll slip to a limp defeat.
Emery at fault with the system and the selection. We've got 2 up up top, but played no balls in behind, no crosses have come in. Absolutely awful performance.

The match thread is trying to reverse psychology / jinx Villa wins by being excessively negative. The hope is when someone says "Watkins is shite, I'd sell" that he then proves them wrong and scores.
Nobody actually means half the negative things they say on here.

Should have had a penalty.
However, You can not constantly give the ball away in defence and not get punished.
Apart from Bailey no tempo from midfield , we just allow them to get back and set out their stall.
No one putting their hand up as the leader in SJM absence, Luis always disappoints me in this missing aspect of his game.

It's absolutely appalling. This is a replica of Spurs display yesterday. If West Ham had anything about them first half they would have the game won already. This is all on Emery and his diabolical team selection, we can't even pass across the back 4 with that mess. Midfield doesn't exist and front two might aswell be on different planets.

If added time has been completed then that’s it. You don’t have to play the corner. The only time you do have to continue is if a pen has been given.
You are absolutely right of course, but it’s very rare you see a corner won and not played before the whistle is blown nowadays.

Duran no doubt agrees with you. He had a little hissy fit when clearly shaping to attack a Moreno cross that never materialised.
I do think the players have become so wedded to this Emery approach, of keeping possession and controlling the play, that they sometimes get a bit of tunnel vision. The result is that we're too often slow and predictable, it makes us easy to play against.

Well is last week is anything to go by im worried. But im hoping a emery rockets incoming because that was pretty shit 1st half.
Too slow, passing at the back terrible.going forward slow and no urgency or energy. Its just dead.
And i expect zaniolo to come on and save the day 🤪
I know the London press won’t mention it but we are struggling with huge injury and suspension issues.
Thursdays and Sundays are hard enough for a full squad but we’ve literally got no options in central midfield. It’s a massive ask to keep going with the squad we’ve got available. Disappointing I know but that’s the way it is and it’s no an excuse, it’s reality.
Let’s hope Ramsey is back for the Wolves game.

It's whipped into a really good area and no one deals with it from a Villa perspective. I don't think it's a foul.

So many bodies in the way but I do think it is the right call. Michail Antonio just turns his arm towards the ball.

It’s going to be like this for us and Spurs to the end of the season. Both teams finding ways to fuck it up as Man U creep up and take 4th. We haven’t been at the races at all today.
I very much hope you're wrong with this prediction, mate.

Not really. Any goal scored after a ball hits a hand / arm, it's disallowed. Intent doesn't come into it.
To be an offence anywhere else, it needs to be deliberate.
Post by: Somniloquism on March 17, 2024, 03:14:57 PM
So that was handball but the penalty claim in 1st half wasn't.... i don't understand the rules anymore
Any handball by the scorer in the build-up, even accidently is classed as handball. By the defender and they can state ball to hand or no movement or any number of excuses.

Cash receiving the ball and waits 3 days before bringing it forward and then wonders why he got caught.
It’s that kind of thing that leads to players getting replaced. I’m sure he’s been told to be more decisive. He should be shocked if he’s back up next season.

Post by: jwarry on March 17, 2024, 03:22:17 PM
Since the Arsenal game we’ve been playing like a midtable team. We’ve just lost our spark. There are fleeting moments where we look good, although that’s not really against top half sides. We just can’t sustain any sort of decent level.
Well clearly we can otherwise we wouldn’t be fourth

We just don’t look remotely like scoring. We are so bastard easy to play against at the moment.
A penalty seems our best bet but we'll probably need to get in their box to achieve it.

You think he should've cut in and shot? There was nothing like enough space for that, the guy who cut out the cross would've been on top him before he got the shot away.

Lots of additional time because of that though.
Time for us to get a winner

Well, it looks like we are going to have an "out-Spursing" competition with Spurs & let ManU into Champs League spot...Oh don't! What a horrible, horrible thought!
Edit this game still 1-1. It's shouldn't take all this time to make decisions like that: there should be a time-limit

It's annoying that every other team in the league seems to find playing at the London Stadium a doddle and give Spam a spanking, but we always struggle

I think we know now know that Cash - Konsa - Torres - Digne are our strongest back four...
No more fucking Longlet please...

A very good point.
Considering it took us 45 minutes to turn up against a West Ham team that were there for the taking, I guess I'll take it.

Ok, take the point. Better than none, better than back to back losses.

McGinn and Kamara and we would have spanked them this year.

The best coach we’ve had since the boss Ron Saunders.
