Aston Villa vs Juventus post-match thread.

That crap decision could cost us top 8 place.

that and disrespecting Brugge by fielding a shite team. 

Speaking of Brugge, they're living a charmed life in this competition. I've just seen the Celtic OG. Fucking hell.

Sitting in thr car stuck in traffic.
Better perf overall, Rogers got better as game went on, but gives the ball away too much. Kamara was superb. Bailey is dross, I would sell him Jan if we had a replacement lined up.

I think rogers was generally awful ronight. He lost the ball so many times tonight. It was like a rinse and repeat.  Think its abit of fatigue

he defo needs time on the bench. Playing with 2 wide players who are completely ineffective the last half a dozen games or so..

With Rogers I think it's definitely tiredness, he's just lost that bit of sharpness to his play. His touch is off because he's stretching a little, and his reactions are a bit slow.

I think he'll be fine with a bit of a rest.

Thought we looked solid, midfield looks infinitely better for kamara being there, mcginn was industrious and ollie did well but was increasingly isolated.

Problem is for me that our supporting attackers are currently in shocking form, Rogers and bailey had two horrific performances and killed every attack we had with poor passes, poor decisions or total indecision. If we had effective wide ans attacking options off the bench tonight we could have easily won that

[devilla]

We won that Nil Nil.

A better performance I thought. Kamara motm, Bailey much improved, Ollie was excellent and Emi did Emi things with a world class save.

And the "referee"?...Scandalous.

Yep you can just see it. He needs a bit of a break, it’s not a surprise the level he’s operating at and the volume of games is a steep increase.

I thought Cash played well. 100% pass completion, 3 tackles, 4 dribbles, all action.

I'm guessing the ref gave the foul, not the goal otherwise it would have had to be a monitor job to over-rule it. But for VAR to spend so long looking at it, I'm guessing they were trying to tell him that the contact was minimal and maybe he should review, and he decided no, the contact was there.

La Liga March last season

The RFEF announced on Thursday the refereeing appointments for La Liga matchday 29. Gil Manzano remains suspended after the controversy that happened at Mestalla in the draw between Valencia and Real Madrid.

The refereeing appointments for La Liga matchday 29 are now official. Gil Manzano remains suspended after the controversy that marred the end of the draw between Valencia and Real Madrid.

Jude Bellingham scored the 2-3 in stoppage time, but the referee blew the whistle in the moments before the goal. The match ended 2-2 despite the huge anger of the 'Merengue' team and the red card that the English star saw.

Yep and I think it helped Bailey too, who did much more and created a very good chance.

[dicedlam]

Watching Rogers come off the pitch and he seemed to be coughing a lot into his shirt. Maybe he is coming down with the flu or something. Definitely looked off it tonight.

[Demitri_C]

Anyone got a spare cabbage i can throw at that ref tonight?
