Aston Villa v Sheffield United Match Thread

[Flamingo Lane]

Maybe it wasn’t all of the ball.



Get over it.

It was almost all of two balls.  And this is a discussion thread!  And that is worth a discussion.

Tried both channels and i prefer the crowd noise. It was just too weird without for me.

I don’t recall Brentford having a constantly launch it from the back tactic yet we keep on employing it. One of my hopes coming back into this is we stop doing that. We do and it lose the ball constantly.

I thought this tactic worked quite well for most of the half: Davis is bullying their CB and our MF has picked up the 2nd ball alot. Hause worries me bigtime.

Did they show the hawkeye graphic on Sky? If not i'm guessing the technology wasn't working?

Love Ian Taylor.  Wish we had him in the side now, ahead of Hourihane. 

Think you're being over critical of Hourihane, him along with Luiz and Davis been our best players in that half.

It comes to something when you have to rely on your watch to give a goal.
Eyes obviously don’t count any more.

Let's see if Oliver 'balances up' the mistake during the 2nd half ...

Apparently the ref has said he thought it was a goal and that Hawkeye suffered a technical fault in not confirming it.

Dodgy penalty on the way against us no doubt.

From overhead, no they didn't

[hilts_coolerking]

I genuinely didn't realise that Hourihane was playing.

[Goldie.7]

We got lucky with that decision and yet again it was down to player error.

That's the last time I back Nyland to start.

[Goldie.7]

Dodgy penalty on the way against us no doubt.

They scored a goal and should be leading.

Get over it.
