Aston Villa v Olympiacos - Post-Match Thread

[Demitri_C]

Positives for sure where the 2 goals scored.
Watkins and Diaby finishing was superb!
Seemed a bit over run in midfield areas in transition however another day Villa score several more.
Prayers and thoughts to the supporter who was taken to hospital I hope that they will be ok.
Does anyone have any info or knowledge on this.
God bless them.
That's the most important thing tonight the welfare of supporter

Medical attention will almost certainly be more useful than prayers.

Mods….. what the rules for getting me banned again. I can’t read the absolute bollocks that comes out of the mouths of Risso,Demitri C and Paulie. What a bunch of pricks. At least DC is only annoying the other two are just Cs. If they spoke to people the way they do on here the other side of a keyboard they’d be seeking medical assistance pretty urgently.

Is that good enough?

I hope it’s good enough.

Any update on the fan that required medical attention?

Doing OK apparently, sat up in bed at hospital awaiting test results, life saved by a female fan by all accounts.

[London Villan]

Good news on the fan.

Without Emi, Pau and Kamara we looks like Gerrard’s Villa rather than Unai’s. Very frustrating evening, as we won’t get an ‘easier’ chance to win a european trophy.

Probably the only good news about yesterday

Thanks for the update jon.

Wish the fan all the best 🙏

We don’t and didn’t.

We’re playing without a specialist  number 6, thus getting over run in midfield at times and conceding too many goals.

We badly miss The Bouby.

Fantastic news regarding the fan. When he's better, I hope the club invite him and the lady who treated him back as a guest in some capacity.

Whats worrying for me is that olympiakos team is as good as fulham and they scored  4 it could have easily been 5 if olsen didnt make that save.

Its certainly not impossible because we know how good we can be but in europe we have been largely average to shite. Ita gonna take a massive performance to turn this round.

The one thing i will say ia of we turn it around we will this trophy thats for sure

Next week it has to be pau and konsa at cb. No more le nglet. He wasnt good at all. I think rest luiz this weekend as i dont think he will be in a good head space after that pen miss.

Big moment that unfortunately has cost us. If we went in at 4-3 i think we could go there and win the game by a goal. But two?? Thats gonna be very very hard

Last night showed that we need far better players next season if we want to continue battling for a top 4 position in the league and be competitive in either the Champions League or Europa league.

Hopefully Unai, will have a plan in the summer to get at least 4 players in the summer that can improve our 1st 11.

I still find it strange that Diego Carlos, after a man-of-the match performance in that epic win at Arsenal, has been largely ignored by UE. Him and Pau Torres playing last night and the defence looks stronger. The both have a lot of experience in Europe.

Our first eleven when on form and firing have proved they are as good as anyone, however one or two dropping off form and then throwing an injury or two the drop off is significant. That’s not surprising when you see how far we’ve come in a short space of time. We don’t have the luxury of resting Torres like last night, or maybe take Dougie off when it’s clear his focus has gone.

The squad needs to build a wee bit, that’s certainly clear but one thing, I’m so proud of this team for their achievements so far. To still be fourth and in a semi-final is amazing.

We don’t and didn’t. 

We did and we won’t.

Without those three we have no control over possession or calmnes on the ball. Add to this the tried and tested midfield of SJM and Doug that doesnt work.

And if you think the CL or even the Europa League, are easier to win than the conference then I’m not sure how much european football you’ve watched.

Labelling last night a Gerrard type performance is just nonsense.
