Legia Warszawa v Aston Villa Match Thread

[AV84]

Maybe Unai underestimated these?
Theey're better than I expected

Or overestimated some of our squad.

Baileys been woeful

In other news, the Pope is Catholic, and bears defecate in the woods.

[HolteLower]

Villa back to being old Villa?

I genuinely don't understand what's happened since last season. We were really good, and now we look a mess.

I think that's the right assessment, tbh.

[Rigadon]

Strange game management. WTF?

Emery continuing his record of freezing when under the cosh.  Unforgivable from someone who has enough experience to know better.

Haha, yeah.  Right. 

[Smirker]

Villa back to being old Villa?

No.

[The Edge]

Bloody hell. Have some of you forgotten that two very important players of ours got season ending injuries in week one? Mings and Buendia are massive losses to us.

And 'embarrassing', really? Embarrassing was taking one point from 24 in january-February in the Championship in 2016-17. Not losing a tricky European tie.

The defending has been embarrassing for all those concerned. I've gone from saying our biggest problem is getting in a striker who scores regularly to now thinking our defence needs a helluva lot of work. That's now our biggest priority in my view.

Too many changes, some forced, some choices?

[stubbsyandy]

Such a lack of energy

[AlexAlexCropley]

2nd best all over the pitch

[andyh]

Get up Bailey you fucking tart

[eamonn]

Zrinjski 3 - AZ Alkmaar 3

Get an equaliser and that'd be alright for the first night.

Didn't PWS post earlier that Alkmaar were 3-0 up ?!

[Bad English]

I'll take 3-4 if you offer it now

[pelty]

Lost Mings, lost Buendia, Ramsey and Moreno out. 1/3 of the starting 11 not there.
