Aston Villa Women 2022/23

[edgysatsuma89]

I thought we were good out wide on both sides, chelsea were nowhere near as comfortable there as in the league game. We just couldn't convert it into decent chances. That said, I was behind the goal (crossbar was obstructing my view) so didn't have the best perspective in the second half, but it did look like we had maybe a handful of opportunities we could have executed a bit better.

We entered their box loads of times in the second half and Hanson put in some great crosses but we lacked a bit of composure when it mattered. And none of the big chances fell to Daly. We did threaten down the right when Nobbs linked up out there but Lehmann struggled to get much change out of Carter, who was really good. I presume Lehmann is the most at threat of losing her place next season of the current XI. But hopefully she sticks around because we need more depth (no subs used today) and her leaving would give our social media department as mad as a lorry.

I've been to quite a few women's games now, I sit a bit right of centre so see Lehmann a lot up close for 45 minutes and her touch drives me mental. It can be so poor sometimes. Hanson was mullering her full back, hoping we can somehow keep her.

We had Magill and Allen on the bench yesterday who are both excellent players but coming back from serious injuries.

Was disappointed with Knobbs, seemed quite wasteful for someone with decent pedigree.

Couldn't agree more. I think Nobbs has been poor since she joined us, and her presence in the team is hampering the development of Laura Blindkilde-Brown.

It's a funny old game, if you'd compared the two players you'd have expected Laura's to be the first of their names to be misspelt.

1 up at spurs inside 9 minutes. A wonderful move working the ball across the face of the box from the right, finished with aplomb by Hanson.

Now 2-0

2-0, 20 minutes, Daly after a well-worked free kick. And it sounds like there's a decent contingent of Villa at Brisbane Road.

[Brazilian Villain]

2-1 now.

Missed it, the app decided to stop casting.
Lovely ball through just from Nobbs for Hanson, should've scored.

I nipped out to buy a paintbrush. Soz about that.

[Lastfootstamper]

No Hanson tonight, loan-tied, bit of a blow. Still, come on, The Villa. Let's batter these twice in a weekend.
