Aston Villa v Burnley Post Match Thread

[KevinGage]

best player for me today was there Lyle Foster he had Lenglet and Carlos on toast every time he took them on and was dangerous throughout the whole game playing on his own up front
Don’t know anything about him at all apart from seeing him live today

If/when Burnleh go down he might be a useful backup option for us.

Ben Mee ?

I thought Foster was very good today to be honest, beat the offside trap a few times and generally gave Carlos and Lenglet a match.

i think it was more a case of Carlos / Lenglet being poor, he should have been handled with minimal fuss but we looked ragged defensively .
Not helped by Moreno having another absolute shocker

Moreno wasn't that bad, he's getting back up to speed. Do  you go to the matches?

[PaulTheVillan]

Foster is decent. Be a good back up to Ollie

Moreno had a shocker?

i thought he was poor today and he wasn't good in his cameo at OT. In his defence he is very rusty

He’s certainly not up to his old standard but I thought he didn’t get enough of the ball first half but provided a good option in the second and gave quite a bit of attacking thrust.

ok going forwards but defensively ?

Moreno was no worse than anyone else defensively, it’s not like they were constantly exposing him down that side.

I thought Moreno was generally good but a bit late on stepping up with the offside trap a couple of times. Which is fine, it's incredibly hard and demands incredible practice, but it did happen a couple of times.

. Just the usual rustiness of coming back from injury

It seemed like Martinez was at fault for both goals?

Dunno how he can be blamed for the first but ill have to watch it back. The 2nd it looked like Torres and Carlos stepped up to late and Moreno got out muscled, then Martinez should've saved it.

Edit. Looking back he was completely lost for the 1st. Should have done better with both for sure.

He was beaten at the near post with the offside chance so he might have took that as a warning on where he might put it.

Just seen the goals again on MOTD.  Their second goal was really poor tbh.

Unai has got a bad eye on the interview.

No.
