Bournemouth v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

HT will be a welcome relief at this point. Reset and come back out and win this. Other results so far going our way so need to get back at this properly in the second half.

I wonder if they'll leave Semenyo on for the second half. I'd be very worried about him if I were a Bournemouth fan.

For who? Some of us aren't illegally streaming!

Commentator suggested the foul was inside the box. It wasn’t

[TonyD]

We have been too slow.
Getting bullied and bossed.

They're a dirty lot

[JUAN PABLO]

Shit free kick

HT. Well you can't say it was a boring first half.

That’s some defending from Konsa. Outstanding, what a player he is.

[Exeter 77]

This ref is bottling a second yellow for any Bournemouth player.

[Risso]

That was mostly extremely poor, and I'm afraid to say, largely due to the wrong set up yet again.

Zaniolo a passenger. The lad in blue their best player by a mile. 24 should have walked. They're so fucking snide off the ball.

We've seen the Villa, now let's fuck off home.

FFS, get Zaniolo off, utterly fucking abysmal.

He will be gone at half time as will Carlos I think. Tielemans can have no complaints if he's hooked too.

Tielemans has done pretty well, I thought.

Keeps getting caught in possession and not tracking runners in midfield.

That’s a good word for it. They are fouling consistently and just putting us off our game. It’s the type of shit Pep gets Man City to do just with better players. We need to rise above it and use our quality to win this. Zaniolo and Diego off for me to get back a more settled back four with Diaby or JJ on for Zaniolo.
