Aston Villa v Rapid Vienna Match Thread

[richard moore]

Great defensive midfield challenge by NRC, well chased back.

And welcome back to the team squad Nigel.

Dire apart from that though in my opinion - he still can't pass the ball straight or control it first time. Just not good enough for me at this level

Yep, back down from the naughty step.

It actually looks like quite a decent crowd tonight.

Almost went myself - work ten mins away, decided to go just before leaving, stepped out into the pissing rain and opted not to.

I know, I know.

If Gabby is injured for any length of time, we really are going to struggle to score goals unlesss we bring someone in in the next week.

When was the last time Deano and Ugo were on the Villa Park turf?

   I think with a fit Gabby we look ok.


   Like the look of Ireland, good pace, good awareness, like the fact that he looks for a 1st time pass.

   The only trouble is if you put Milner in for NRC, it would look quite good would'nt it?


   If, and it looks more likely, that KMac will get the job, hopefully he will be able to buy 2/3 players, because we are'nt far off a good team.

Dunno, but Ugo's a miserable fucker isn't he?

[JUAN PABLO]

[Rigadon]

Davis continuing his petrified clearance routine.

Ireland looks pretty tasty.

Gabby needs a goal scoring partner (revolutionary I know).

How many less shots of the dug out are there?  We used to see ar least 10 shots of our former manager holding his head etc.

Must have been when Bradford were in the Premier League, 1999 ish.

[BILL DE VALL]

Ireland is a quality passer of the ball
this deal is looking sweeter
