Aston Villa 2-1 Fulham Post match thread

[Toronto Villa]

We actually played pretty well and should have won by more. Up to 5th

[Legion]

That'll do nicely.

[Ian.]

Happy days

Good result we needed to bounce back and we did. How did Onomah do?

[Nastylee]

Fair play to Bruce. There was a definite tactical plan to press and force errors high up the pitch. The decision to drop Davis looked a good one and JK looked much sharper. Onwards and upwards.

[Bad English]

31% possession? Really? Wankers. ;-)

Fair play to Bruce. There was a definite tactical plan to press and force errors high up the pitch. The decision to drop Davis looked a good one and JK was much sharper. Onwards and upwards. All their possession was meaningless.

Good to see us trying to play higher up the pitch.
We hung on but just about deserved it.

[FanNOTCustomer]

We won, but taking our best players off so early? Recipe for disaster. Can tell Bruce is used to managing little shit teams.

[Axl Rose]

That was a long last half an hour.

Well done for holding on Villa.

Still think we should be playing more on that front foot at home, though.

Though a win is a win, and finally into the top 6.

31% possession? Really? Wankers. ;-)

Not at all, 32% according to the beeb

[rob_bridge]

Happy enough with that. Onwards

[Joe S]

Just looked at the table, it appears we are "there or thereabouts"

[PaulWinch again]

It's a good result but I still maintain that better retention of the ball would make those latter stages a lot more comfortable.

Good win. If we'd played that way against Wolves we would have given them a proper game. Given Bruce's style, he got the tactics right today.
