Aston Villa v Man City Match Thread

[Steve67]

Haven't heard the City fans once

Too busy eating prawn sandwiches.

HT

And breath.

[SoccerHQ]

Tempted to stick Davis on.

[Legion]

Mine is staying off. Not that I'm superstitious or anything.

[Chris_Jephcott]

I love Samatta. Genuinely.

If we do go down this season, I hope a/ we keep him and b/ sort out our problems in defence.

[KRS]

My brother at the game says Man City fans are outsinging us? May be I’m half cut but doesn’t sound like that on tv.

Jesus I thought it was going to be five at Half Time.  Thank fcuk for Stones and great header by Ally.

[Jon Crofts]

Took the chance we had that’s all you can ask for at this level.

Their midfield worries the life out of me.

Big first 15 minutes and let’s see where we are. 

[Axl Rose]

Tempted to stick Davis on.

Yes, absolutely. Get someone making a nuisance of themselves amongst the City defenders.

I love two up front. It's a dying art

He'll score 20 odd no problem in the championship given the amount Tammy scored from simple crosses last season.

John Stones is one of those players, like Michael Carrick and Gabby, who look like there's absolutely nothing going on upstairs.

[Proposition Joe]

That's how you fucking head a ball. We're losing 2-1, getting outplayed, but that bullet header has made my day.

If only we'd bought Samatta last August.

[Steve67]

And we are still in it!  I'm still spewing about that corner given to them.  What is the fucking point in VAR if they can't correct the referee with a simple mic chat, 'sorry old son, but that is a goal kick'. Absolute shite.  I know we defended it really poorly but prevention is better than the cure.

[LukeJames]

Samatta isolated, Grealish isolated, Targett and Guilbery targetted, Got ourselves a huge lifeline there with a fucking brilliant header. Need Davis on, nothings stick8ng up top. I hate Elmo as a winger.

[SoccerHQ]

Man. City have actually only had two shots on target. Would've certainly taken that for a half of football and they shouldn't have been given the opportunity to get their second on goal.
