Aston Villa vs Sheffield United Match Thread

[Goldie.7]

Dire first half.

Seven goal thrillers galore this weekend, and we get served this shite, lul.

[Risso]

Why is Luiz playing in defence against 10 men. PUSH UP!!!

I agree, he needs to be much more adventurous second half.  They've got two rows of four parked up, so we need more quality goinf forward.  Leave Konsa to do the mopping up if they break.

[GarTomas]

Clear why we are in for at least one more winger.

I’d like to see Jack central and just off Watkins.  Apart from his deliveries Hourihane has been anonymous and McGinn not much different.

[Sexual Ealing]

We need to take some fucking shots.

[CT]

Alan Smith “if there were fans in the ground they’d be groaning right now”.

Fucking idiot.

[Rudy65]

McGinn absolutely invisible.

We look decent but it is so clear that our entire creative output is through Jack, and there's nothing from anyone else.

And hence we are too predictable

Alan Smith “if there were fans in the ground they’d be groaning right now”.

Fucking idiot.

And he’d be right

I think Hourihane's been good, and generally gets a bad rap on here.

Grealish has been shite

[jwarry]

Pity Traore wasn’t signed in time as he is probably what we need right now

[DB]

Nothing from our midfield, 1 dimensional

[andyh]

A million fucking goals in the prem this weekend.
Free flowing, fast paced, entertaining football, all over the country.


Then we play.

[themossman]

Them going down to ten men has just exacerbated all the things we were going to struggle against.

Trez is a terrible player to watch. I think he should make way for Davis ASAP.

[Monty]

I think it's important to remember this our first game apart from an easy day out at Burton. You'd expect SU to be a little sharper than us.

It's not the sharpness, it's how we're approaching the game.  Slinging crosses into the box isn't a particularly sensible tactic against Sheff Utd but that's all we seem to be able to do.

You'd think with Grealish, Luiz and McGinn in midfield spaces we'd be able to do more.

[Sexual Ealing]

Grealish has been shite

He has. Needs to drive into the box more.
