Aston Villa v Man City Match Thread

[NorthYvillan]

We don't close the opposition down enough - not just today but all season

[four fornicholl]

The pitch seems dead, no zip at all.

[Axl Rose]

I'd like to see us rampaging around the pitch, flying into challenges, closing them down like madmen.

Come on Villa!

Shot on target. We got one of those today.

[Villan82]

It's an awful pity AEG didn't score that chance at the start.

[taylorsworkrate]

We must be the only team who can play this deep and defensively, yet still give the opposition copious time and space.

[Axl Rose]

Foden is an exceptional player: That control there. Him and Jack will be the future of England's central midfield.

[KRS]

Started well but sitting back and allowing Citeh to have this possession only ends up in one way.

[Malandro]

Get stuck into them.

[Jon Crofts]

How come this Foden lad doesn’t get games, he looks very decent.

[Villan82]

Douglas Luiz did well there to break that up.

[PaulTheVillan]

I really wish Martin Tyler would lose his voice and retire

[PaulWinch again]

Well in Douglas, let’s make it uncomfortable for them.

[hilts_coolerking]

These long balls aren't achieving much.
