A bit walking wounded with Cash and Bailey on the right-hand side. Five defenders and a goalie on the bench so apart from Duran, not much in the way of changes for an attacking sense.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs Manchester United- Match Thread
Post by: PaulWinch again on October 06, 2024, 01:02:01 PM
Onana out is a blow, midfield is pretty open. Manure have plenty going forward, we need to be clinical today.

Post by: Chip Butty 111 on October 06, 2024, 01:02:13 PM
How Bailey starts after Wednesday is a mystery, could barely run 5 yards before being subbed.

Midfield looks light on the bench. Need to put this to bed on the first half.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs Manchester United- Match Thread
Post by: Risso on October 06, 2024, 01:07:23 PM
So no actual midfielder on the bench then. That's sub-optimal.
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs Manchester United- Match Thread
Post by: rob_bridge on October 06, 2024, 01:08:59 PM
Big gaps in midfield without Onana and McGinn. Hopefully both miss internationals and are back for later on in the month.

Need a big big game from Bailey today please.

We'll either absolutely batter them or lose 3-2.

Post by: jon collett on October 06, 2024, 01:12:31 PM
They’ve picked the old guard so midfield and defence will be slow.

Slightly surprised he hasn’t played Duran and Watkins
Title: Re: Aston Villa vs Manchester United- Match Thread
Post by: PaulWinch again on October 06, 2024, 01:12:57 PM
They’ll definitely score today. We will also create plenty I suspect, so we need to be ruthless.

Evans and Slabhead in @ center back for them.

De Ligt and Martinez (their one) dropped.

He's either planning to sit deep all game and hit us on the counter through Eriksen, or he knows he's gone and this is a "it wasn't my fault" 11 for his CV.

We'll probably still lose 3-2.

Post by: KevinGage on October 06, 2024, 01:19:51 PM
Aye. Onana does seem the type to pick up a knock or ten.

So it does seem increasingly odd that we let the Baron and Dendonker go this summer. Emery clearly didn't rate the latter. But the former might be better served on our bench than Valencia's.

I hope our players are  not still hyped up by Wednesday's result and realise that there is a job to be done here. There is been far too much on the media all week about ETH and this match as his nadir if defeated. In the past every time that has been the case they have turned up and won so we have a job to do and it's going to be tough.

Yeah enzo would have been a good option for bench today. Hopefully kamara should be back after the break which will help

I think onana picked up quite a few injuries at everton so its not a suprise really

We need to stop them putting the ball in behind our full backs as that's their main threat as well as slabhead at set pieces.

Following on BBC stats (Oktoberfest again). They've had 3 yellows already? Blimey. I predict some early baths in the second half for them.

There was a moment after about half an hour where Rogers got the ball and carried it forty yards upfield with Ericksen right next to him because he was frightened to make a challenge already being on a yellow.  He didn't make the most of it, but with him and Mainoo booked, I would hope to see Rogers exploiting them on a half turn.

It's been pretty rank, though.  Shame to see Ezri get an injury, but right before the International break is about the best possible time to find himself out for a few weeks.

Everyone looking a bit leggy to be honest, hopefully getting a rocket up their arses right now so we'll be in for a better second half.

Philogene hasn't been too bad - certainly no worse than anyone else.  If we're calling subs off the back of sub-par first-half performances then we could probably swap eight of them!

Beyond Buendia and Duran, we don't really have any options to change it going forward (unless we're giving one of the kids a run out), so I guess it's how long Unai is willing to give them to see if there's been a reaction.

I was just thinking the same thing. We need some energy and dare say it, a bit of chaos. This is the most comfortable I have seen Man Utd all year. I thought we would really go at them but I think we have showed them too much respect. They will be happy to get out of this with a 0 0 draw. I would like to see us go for the throat.

There has been a lack of urgency. I know our game is to draw teams on to us and then exploit the gaps but when a team sits deep, has some midfield discipline or zero attacking intent it becomes a really boring game of patience. We are at home. We should have gone at them more.

This season things haven't really clicked, we've had a few injuries already and some players are carrying knocks.
Despite this we have lost once and have got 6 points in the CL. We are finding a way to win and are becoming resilient. We are fine against other good teams but still struggle to impose ourselves against weaker opposition as we should. We are a very good side in the making.
