Aston Villa vs Juventus post-match thread.

[VillaTim]

It was always going to be a game of few chances and we needed to be clinical and we weren't . The McGinn miss was the worst for me , he should be breaking the back of the net with that not side footing it as Juve will always slide back for those .

[Risso]

I've never been so certain a game was going to finish 0-0, even before it had kicked off. They had no strikers, and we were obviously going to keep it as tight as possible to try to get some confidence back. It was a fairly poor spectacle, but a point's a point I suppose, even though it looks like top 8 is probably going to be beyond us. No wins in 7 now, which really isn't very good at all. Still, hopefully Kamara's return can reignite the season. Something needs to.

On the way home, better performance from us but we still look toothless up front. The Ref, what a beauty. During his pre match routine  he started jogging with with his 2 assistants,  looked like Kenneth Williams in a nightie being chased by an Alsation..and some of his efforts at measuring 10 yards for free kicks was pathetic...I won't go into some of his decisions...spoiled the game totally

[Nii Lamptey]

Better performance overall, but you can still see they go for the ‘safe’ pass back instead of the risky forward pass at times.
Kamara my MotM, and our 2nd half dominance ended when both he and Ollie went off. Duran can have no complaints about being sub after his invisible cameo either.
Can’t believe Rogers lasted the 90. There is a top player in there, but he just looks totally broken at present, and has looked that way for weeks - Abysmal tonight unfortunately.
Special mention to our right hand side- Cash, Bailey and Carlos much better.
Disappointing result, but slowly improving.

Onto Chelsea. UTV

Surprised people on here being so generous. I thought we were beyond wank today with the exception of Emi and Kamara. No threat. Meandering around. Bailey was rubbish again. Rogers absolutely terrible. Tielemans bang average. Disgusting performance and Emery does not look like he has any answers. Looks like a mid-table kind of year if things keep going the way they have been.

Has BC Villain hacked your account?

Emery's subs of late are baffling and has cost us.

Agree with that, Conceicao was always looking to go forward and beat Digne with pace and trickery, whereas too many of our attacks break down because somebody always reverts to a safe pass backwards.

Yet every other time we did that we gave away possession anywhere with the added Jive bonus of being on the edge of our box with little effort needed by them.

What subs do you think should have been made?

Kamara is coming back from injury and can't play 90 mins yet, he had to come off. Buendia has been so powderpuff that bringing Rogers off would have been a bad call despite his performance- obviously almost scored the winner. Can't see what other changes were available?

Bournemouth he got it wrong and it cost us
The subs v Palace were wrong and deflated us
Tonight Rogers should have gone on HT , 60 mins latest .
