Aston Villa 1-2 Bournemouth Post Match Thread

Big let down. Learn from it, if possible. Can't see us getting anything from Everton on this showing - the team appears to be set up to counter attack all the time. 0-2 down at home, now what?

Shocking mistakes, Heatons was almost criminal and that set the tone.
Weseley looks a yard off the pace to be a threat at this level.
A long difficult season I am afraid.

From the stats we battered them.

Sadly these 5-10 minutes lapses when we're giving up two goals isn't going to win us many games at this level.

Could understand it last week given the circumstances but starting in the manner today was a disaster.

Would expect 3-4 changes for Everton, both new full backs in will be starting I'd suspect.

Why the fullbacks? They both played well and none of them are to blame for losing either game.

I'm sort of in john e camp, can understand AEM playing to help out Trezeguet but full backs are such a huge part of the game going forward and Taylor certainly not going to cut it in the long term. Would get Targett in at least and see what he's up to.

Creating more going forward most likely, both have been fine defensively but we're lacking creating good chances.

I agree Tayls doesn't do anything going forward but I can't fault him in his last 2 and I think he's usually crap. I think there might be small changes but it's down to lapses of concentration that have cost us so I don't think it's a case of a mass change.

It's early days I know but, i honestly can't see Wesley and Davis getting  into double figures, goals wise. Combined.

Poor effort. All that preparation chucked away by thick as shit mistakes in the first 10 minutes.

Decent possession etc after that but very little goal threat. Team looks unbalanced in a worryingly 2015/16 esque way.

Expect we’re getting beaten again on Friday so I just hope the team spirit is resilient enough to cope while we struggle to get going and figure out where the goals are coming from.

This post is completely wrong, I’m sorry.

We dominated them for the last 50 minutes. Lop-sided possession stats. Grealish and McGinn getting forward with ease. Wesley finally playing with some urgency. We could’ve scored 3 or 4 headers in the second half. Engels and Mings were comfortable all game. Not to mention Douglas’ FIRST PL match.

If Bournemouth hadn’t gotten the luckiest 15 minutes of their life I’d say that game could’ve ended 4-0.

I’m not happy about the loss, duh. What I am unhappy about is that it took us 40 minutes to get the car out of park.

That’s got more to do with the fact that they played almost the whole game with a 2 goal buffer. As if they gave a shit about our possession stats when we look so completely toothless up front. Possession stats don’t win you games otherwise we’d have a statue of Lambert somewhere.

If 22 shots is toothless sign me up. Without counting Wesley’s two headers over, Jacks shoulder and McGinns drag wide right.

We went at them non-stop and with ease in that second half.

22 shots and 1 goal. Spout stats at me all you want mate.

I agree, Bournemouth realized that as long as they kept thier shape which they did and did not allow too much space then the points were for the taking.
I thought it was a pretty comfortable win for them.

FWIW my Bournemouth mate said they were going to lose after the Luiz cracker.

Early days but I can take a lot of positives and at least you can see what we're trying to do and how we progress. Give it time and I think we'll be fine, definitely excited by some of the lads on the playing.

I’d rather spout stats than brew negativity.. two games in.

[clash city rocker]

If we want to stay up we need to beat teams like this at home. Fuckin criminal mistakes to give them 2....When the fuck will we ever learn.

[four fornicholl]

We'll be fine.
