Aston Villa v Sheff Utd Match Thread

[PaulWinch again]

This is quite frustrating.

[ExclDawg]

Nice of them to dress up in school bus yellow to really play the part today

[PeterWithesShin]

If we carry on with this 80% possession they'll get knackered and fuck up.

[Somniloquism]

United need the win. They'll be coming out to play at some point.

I think they would be happy drawing or even losing only by 1 or 2. They know it is points against other teams they need, not counting on ones they might fluke against us.

[SamTheMouse]

Cash doesn't look quite the same quality as everyone else, does he? His willing running covers a multitude of sins.

BBC making me laugh

Villa have one of the highest backlines in football. Only Tottenham when down to nine men push higher.

This is tough because they know exactly how shit they are and are playing a pretty strict 541 and leaving no space anywhere.

They're aren't attempting to play at all.

[Proposition Joe]

Why does Cash always do that drag back / cut inside when we're moving forward? It kills our flow

It's more of a 5-5-0

[SamTheMouse]

They've started leaving a foot in as well now. Especially that Norwood prick.

Yeah, I was trying to be kind to Cam.

I've stated before when people queried in other matches. If it was something Emery didn't like, the Cash wouldn't be doing it*. I suspect it is something asked to do for retaining possession of certain moves are cut out/ runs are not made.

*Of course he might not like it and that is why he keeps getting dropped.

Emery telling the players wake up because he’s falling asleep.

[Martyn Smith]

One touch toomany Diaby 😣

[Chris_Jephcott]

Well it’s not the trouncing that I was hoping would happen. It’s not exactly exciting either.

Was just hoping for a goal shout from PWS!
