Newton Heath vs The Magnificent Aston Villa Match Thread

[Marton]

Is Gil on the bench?

Yes.

Proper question: Is Gil STILL on the bench and Weimann STILL on the pitch...?

[ez]

I take it we're just trying to keep it at 1-0 for now, then going for an equaliser late on.

[Dave]

Is Gil on the bench?

Yup, unfortunately there rather than twenty yards further forward.

[TaxDodger]

Has Gil run over Sherwood's dog?

[Goldie.7]

United seem to have ran out of ideas a bit. Sanchez has done a good job for us defensively today, shielded Clark and Okore well.

Almost..........spoke too soon

[SamTheMouse]

Fucking hell, Sanchez' passing is dire isn't it.

[passitsideways]

Fucking dismal

[supertom]

Delph has too much to do. He's having to pull wide to cover the lack of width. He's then having to cover in the middle for the complete lack of mobility of Sanchez.
It's one man against Utd's entire midfield.

[rjp]

Di Maria on for diving, once played for a big club, Young.

[CJ]

Di Maria and maybe Falcao coming on. They're panicking!

[Matt Collins]

Sanchez . . .

Grealish or gil soon please.

For wiemann.

Would be lucky to get anything out of this but we might just get one good chance

[passitsideways]

You know how we love giving struggling opposition players/teams a boost?

Di Maria nailed on to create a couple

[JUAN PABLO]

shame that CB chance wasnt put away

Yep. That's the problem with straight 4-4-2 when you have to make the play - the midfield gets too open. Good for countering, but not so good for chasing the game.

This is awful.
