Aston Villa vs AFC Bournemouth Match Thread

No subs. Surprises me. Guess we'll do them on the hour mark but we could be 3 down by then...

Phillip Billing btw has been subbed. That's very good management right there.

Fucking terrible ref but we’ve been atrocious. Masters of our own downfall. Wesley look like a big, shit, carthorse.

We tried to replace Tammy like for like and it’s not worked out yet at all. Tammy is much more mobile and instinctive. Wesley looks rather cumbersome so far.

So....... not like for like then.

Oh well. At least we have time to turn it around.

Completely different players. Tammy scores almost exclusively in the 6 yard box. Wesley rarely enters it.

Front three have been very poor but maybe that chance before half time might improve confidence. Agreed on balance in midfield looking amiss, we look wide open at times.

Like for like as in a player who can play up front on his own.

Mings also looks a bit sloppy to me. Out of position a few times.

Doubts about Tammy at this level but I'd be much more confident with him leading the line.

It's forgotton but when we signed Benteke we still had likes of Bent and Gabby. At the time they were proven premier league players so Benteke could develop without having pressure of leading the line.

Belgain league to premier league is massive step up. All seems a bit odd to me given what we spent and stockpiling CBs.

Would have been a harsh pen.

Who was it for? Just came on my feed VAR reviewing penalty but nothing came of it.

Grealish is a lot worse than last week, barely in the game.

Wesley tripped by keeper but think he had a finger on the ball and they got to it at pretty much the same time.

[themossman]

Better.

Luiz does look promising. Love how easily he stays on the ball and on his feet. Strong lad.
