Aston Villa vs Brighton - Match Thread

Yeah to be fair Bailey did nicely to create that chance. Konsa has been atrocious and I maintain entirely culpable for their goal.

[Tuscans]

C,mon lads, HT, beers out

[Keeno]

Better team going forward, definitely worth being level. Bailey having a good game, but collectively the front 4 are making the wrong decision in the final third at the moment.

The way we defend space on the other hand, is shocking. I think if we keep up this we'll win - but we HAVE to sort out the openness at the back.

Lamptey would improve our right flank.Always liked him

[Dave]

HT.

By far the better team.

[villadelph]

played some really decent football towards the end.

[usav]

Stupid foul by Rogers knowing he will miss the next game if he picks up a booking.

The first "penalty" was more of one than the second.  VAR is a joke.

Hope Pau is OK.

This game is kind of mental.

[VillaTim]

Bailey is really poor again

He's been dreadful

[brontebilly]

Get Ned on and bring Konsa inside for Carlos. It is a waste of time having Konsa at right back when he doesn’t do anything with the ball in advanced positions.

Ned is nowhere near ready

Worth chancing him tonight. Konsa is having a horror show at RB yet again.

[Garyth]

Strange game so far. Pretty niggly and so many stoppages. We're just a little bit off in every department, and it's showing.

I actually think Bailey is showing some promising signs.

[Demitri_C]

Growing into the game but brighton look dangerous  foing forward. They look like we did last season when they go forward.

[Mellin]

bailey and rogers is just wank

Wut?

I meant konsa , that right side needs sorting in Jan

Ah. Agreed.

[Nelly]

Lamptey would improve our right flank.Always liked him

Is he any relation to Nii, who used to play for us? I'd like him more if so!

[Rigadon]

Brighton are a shit spurs.  We need to win this one. 

[Nev]

Better team after such a catastrophic start.

We just waste so many good positions.

Only one yellow in the game and that was the one the BHA player got.
