Need to start kicking a few up the arse and stop being nice

What gives you the impression that he's too nice?

The wheels haven’t come off. But there needs to be considerable changes to how he sets us up to play. It’s to passive and conservative when we just don’t need to be. We’ve shown in some brilliant home displays; Brighton H, Newcastle H, Man City, Arsenal H that we can be strong and aggressive. That’s why our record has been incredible at Villa Park. So why didn’t we set the way we did last week? We just didn’t need to. And yesterday was like so many of our away games. Passive, submissive, careless, lacking structure or seemingly a plan. We are much better than that. One thing playing Arsenal or Liverpool away where we can understand it to a point. But a very depleted Brentford away. Not acceptable at all.

I dont think we need to tell someone as successful as Emery  how to manage players. He's one of the best in the world world at it.

I don't think there is need to panic just yet and don't want to overreact, but he's got a very good reputation to uphold and I just wonder at what point the doubts start to creep into his mind.

If we stop giving away soft goals from the first attack on goal we'll improve significantly.

We got caught yesterday. We got away with the identical situation in the first minute against Newcastle.

AI has nailed it.

AI Overview



+5
Unai Emery's weaknesses include susceptibility to counter-attacks when teams bypass his midfield with speed, the potential for defensive imbalance when switching to two strikers to chase a game, and past difficulties at Arsenal such as lack of managerial support, recruitment failures, and language barriers which contributed to a loss of dressing room cohesion. While his current Aston Villa side is strong tactically, critics suggest the team may still struggle against elite opposition and could face issues with squad depth in demanding European campaigns.
