Aston Villa v Leeds United Match Thread

[chrisw1]

Harrison is a really decent winger

[Rudy65]

I really like trezeguet.

Working hard

Not sure about his quality though

[jwarry]

To be fair you have to give Bielsa his due, he is making a silk purse out of a sow’s ear and wasn’t afraid to sub a weak link in 20 mins. We can get better though

[PaulWinch again]

We have to stop letting Leeds dictate the game.

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

I thought leeds had the better start but we have controlled the last 15mins apart from a few breakaways. Need Barkley and Grealish to get more involved.

I think Jack did go down a bit too easily but that's what everyone does these day - it was no different to the pen Sheffield Utd got against us or several others I've seen given.  And anywhere else n the field that's given as a foul.   So even with VAR, no consistency.  Perhaps it's because it's Jack.  In any case it looked like contact was outside the box.

[dorsetvillian]

We need to press them high. They will give the ball away cheaply at the back. Trez is not protecting Cash enough.

[Ian.]

That was tough, thought it would be after watching their first half against Wolves the other night. They are good, strong, fast and pass it well. Good game.

[Bad English]

The co commentator on R5 said that he knew Jack would go down as soon as he got into the box and it happens too often, that is why he wasn't given the penalty

Is the co-commentator Lee Chapman or Mark Vikuda or David Batty or Danny Mills.

I said to SWMBO that I knew the radio commentators would come out with some stupid bollocks about Jack as soon as he was fouled and it happens too often, that is why we they are ignored, the twats.

[AlexAlexCropley]

Good game.Apart from Leeds speed, we've been the better

[manic-road]

I think we will be better second half, neither side have done enough to be leading imo.

[andyh]

We are playing with 10 men while Trezeguet is on. Running around a lot and offering nothing.

[PeterWithesShin]

I knew Jack Grealish was going to fall, he is so good at leaving his foot in. It goes against him though sometimes.

He deliberately falls over. There are times when he is fouled a lot and there are times when he buys a fall.

[mrfuse]

I'm okay with 0-0 at half-time. We now need to up the pressure and not allow them to get on the front foot.

Yeah me too, in all the chances Leeds have had we've come closest to scoring.
but agreed we need to step up and wear them down.

We are playing with 10 men while Trezeguet is on. Running around a lot and offering nothing.

Do you think Traore's got the work ethic to get back when they spring a counter, though?
