Aston Villa v Nottingham Forest Match Thread.

Pundits quite liking ayew at half time . . .

His final product has been erratic but he's been our best player so far. Not quite sure why he's suddenly become a panto villain on here. The only problem I see is that he and McCormack can't play together because they both want to influence from the same area.

[Duncan Shaw]

They're going to keep thief first clean sheet of the season aren't they?!  I think we've been pretty good, dominant.  10 shits only 2 on target!

[Risso]

Too many cooks for me. You've essentially got three number 10's playing. I would take off one of Ayew or McCormack (probably Ross) and bring on Bacuna to give us more width and just get chalk on his boots. That'll allow Grealish to come inside a little more and then Ayew can play where he's itching to, in the middle.
If it's still 0-0 after the hour mark I'd look at big Rudy to come on.

I agree. Ayew, McCormack and Grealish all effectively doing the same thing. Looks a mess.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Hopefully attacking the Holte will wake the fans and players up. One goal early on and we'll destroy them.

I agree. Shame we don't have adomah to come on

I'd probably take McCormack off and put ayew central if we keep on like this

Yeah feel bad for Ross.  He is the sort of old school centre forward we need and he is being played out of position. 

[ROBBO]

Grealish is pissing all over them but we are woeful in midfield if I see Westwood pass sideways or back once more I may say a naughty word.

[Jimbo]

10 shits only 2 on target!

That's worse than my record.

[PaulWinch again]

Come on Villa. Let's start our promotion run with a win now.

[JUAN PABLO]

whats with the harsh comments about Ayew

the best player for us this half

should have had two assists (  RM shoud have scored and good save by keeper from JK ) and easily the most dangerous player for us creating chances

very odd

[Risso]

They're going to keep thief..   10 shits only 2 on target!

Let the punathons commence!

[aj2k77]

We are going to lose another game we should have pissed all over aren't we?

No killer instinct.

[Matt Collins]

Grealish is pissing all over them but we are woeful in midfield if I see Westwood pass sideways or back once more I may say a naughty word.

Completely unfair in my view

[Iamkmkm]

Iam sorry but westwood is just not good enough, besides he looks like a little school kid..

[pauliewalnuts]

We're not doing much wrong, we just haven't scored.

I'm now concerned that we will do our usual second half disappearing act and end up with nothing.

[PaulWinch again]

Gollini off. Hope it's not serious.
