Aston Villa v Man U pre-season friendly thread

That was rubbish. Every time we get the ball we either just give it back to Manure with a bad pass or hoof it down the field. 

We don't seem to have any game plan, or if we do we are incapable of following it.

We are the footballing equivalent of the band in the 80s Kit Kat advert.

We can’t play we can’t pass we look awful.  We won’t go a long way.

Seen the 2nd goal on Twitter looking to see what the weather is doing and it is definitely doing a fair bit!

From that minute or so clip, it's very friendly pace with no effort to press the back four or Fred, Mings caught under the ball and a bit of a freak ricochet.

[The Edge]

They have total control, it's like a replay of last season, can't keep the ball, two forwards who have no chemistry and a non existant midfield. Ramsey is wasted playing in that position and apart from his first couple of games Coutino has been a disappointment.

I can't recall Coutinho even touching the ball in the first half.

[Axl Rose]

Thank god it's half time.

No more of this shit for me, ruining my Saturday evening. Hoofing from Mings, treacle running from Ings, Digne looks like he retired. Time for some alcohol!

Hope we come back in the second half and win 3-2!

I don't mind us losing this game, what I have a real problem with is the way the team has been set up which makes defeat look inevitable.

[Risso]

What the fuck was Mings doing for the second? Another one who isn't good enough for a team looking to be top 7.

[Toronto Villa]

Konsa, Buendia, Bailey, Doug, Olsen on. Can’t see yet if we made other changes

[kippaxvilla2]

There’s still half the side that are not good enough for top half.

[Nii Lamptey]

Looks like he's gone against the 60 minute run out and made wholesale changes - Buendia, Luis, Konsa, the keeper, Bailey

[CT Villan]

Lots of changes at HT, now show us something different.

[Risso]

Ings and Mings off. Good.

[Toronto Villa]

I’m interested to see how Carlos and Konsa play together

[LamBeast]

It’s a friendly bit you cannot concede like we have.

[Toronto Villa]

Matty Cash has been terrible. He has constantly given the ball away
