Aston Villa v AFC Bournemouth Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

Emery needs to sort this or I can see them nicking this. We need to be more direct . Those early misses could be costly . Barkley for onana and I think we need Bailey on

We’ve had most of the good chances, overall better possession stats. We should be leading. So why the drama about Emery needs to sort it out. We haven’t been shit at all.

well played some great footy at times but the final ball was poor a few times and overplayed at times but have cut through their midfield really well . Bournemth have looked dangerous at times .

I don't think there is that much to sort, I think we have played quite well, just haven't quite had the finish.

Sort what out, we've played very well and being frustrated by a decent team who are defending very well

[PaulWinch again]

Bournemouth have come into it after a good start. I think there’s danger for us here.

[Monty]

We are taking one pass too many at times , need to be a bit more direct

These aren't remotely related issues.

Thought for the first half hour we mostly murdered them, then got our obligatory ballhair VAR-up and lost our focus a bit. Refresh, restart, reboot, let's go.

Sort this out is a big strong, Travers made two excellent saves and we've opened them up many other times.

What is missing from us is the consistent final ball. Ramsey makes lovely runs from the left but why for the disallowed goal is he firing the ball across the box at 100mph? Less pace and it's a tap in for Ollie so that's the area where we're still short on the title chasers.

Cash is having a torrid time keeping up.

Barkley for Onana at half time would be my guess.

[JUAN PABLO]

onanas  only half again

[Beard82]

Weve been far the better team and should have had a couple.  We need to be more clinical - but the performance has been great so far and think wityh our bench we should have enough.

[maidstonevillain]

Makes sense with Onana on a yellow. Thought he played well first half.

[Risso]

Onana must have set the record already for being subbed at half time.

[Toronto Villa]

How did that first half warrant 7 yellows?

[JUAN PABLO]

JJ sort your final ball out
