Aston Villa v HŠK Zrinjski Mostar Match Thread

[Holy Trinity]

Anybody else think this ref is biased?

Yeah the refs not been the best BUT it's all our own doing really, I'm sure there was a hand ball in there box and not a single person in the ground shouted for it. I think Duran was the only player to make a claim too.

[pauliewalnuts]

That was pretty fucking terrible, really.

Take a handful of starters out of the team and we look a totally different side.

A really poor one.

Carry on like this for much longer in this competition and it'll be game over.

[Matt C]

We looked promising when we were dictating the pace of the game early on but after that, not so much.

Anybody else think this ref is biased?

He's Swiss.. he shouldn't be, but he's giving them everything.

[pauliewalnuts]

Also, spare a thought for those poor people who excitedly accepted free tickets tonight.

[PaulWinch again]

Pretty ponderous.

[algy]

Quite regret paying money to watch this on the tellybox.

[Risso]

Dismal fucking fare that.

Emery - the reincarnation of Ron Saunders in the league. The bastard son of Paul lambert in the cups!

[Villan82]

Ref useless. Giving us nothing. We faded badly after a bright start. Zaniolo almost with a worldie.

Mostar are niggly as hell.

Unai could have us in a title challenge next April and people would still be moaning about going out of the Carabao Cup!

Thankfully I’m just following on here.

[Risso]

Also, spare a thought for those poor people who excitedly accepted free tickets tonight.

Those poor kids fron the deprived inner city school. As if they haven't suffered enough.

[ez]

I think Emery will be forced to go full strength if he wants to progress in this competition.

[CT Villan]

Clueless garbage. We are lucky to still be all-square. The squad players are shockingly bad.

Show us something different Unai.

[Meanwood Villa]

McGinn and Tielemans shit. Zaniolo, Bailey, Duran trying. Defence look exposed. They're going to mug us 1-0 here.

[AV84]

People who started paying attention to us after the Brighton game are in for a treat with this one. Analyse the brilliance of Emery now, you Johnny come latelys.
