Aston Villa 2-1 Leicester City post match thread

First  half awful so bad.

Second half we were alot better. We should have won by more but same story miss chance after chance. Luckily today it didnt cost us. Absolutely  delighted for bailey he needed that today.

Ollie was fucking awful today. So bad its unreal.  Buendia another that had a stinker.

Maatsen and barkley excellent

[enigma]

Watkins is lucky Tuchel went to the Amex today instead. Difficult to work out what's happened to him this season.

[Mister E]

Kamara had a very good game, despite some implications re the goal conceded.

[Astnor]

Every win can't be a showstopper.

I know we can, and should play better but this is one of those seasons and if you haven't worked that out yet well, you are going to be proper frustrated between now and May.

I agree with Nev.

Yes, those wordings makes sense and directions for expectations

[Demitri_C]

Whats going with onana? Unused sub.

For 50m he is getting very little game time recently

I agree with Nev.

So do I. We were without two superstars remember.

I'd sell him in case it's infectious.

Watkins not only fluffed his chance (again) but cost us a goal.
He needs an enormous kick up the arse along with a few others.
Duran is going to walk straight back in to this team if he’s not careful.

[Brend'Watkins]

A win that felt almost like a loss. Thankfully, we were up against Leicester as anyone vaguely capable would have given us a stuffing. So many poor performances all over the team. I thank you for the goal Leon but the rest of your game was awful which pretty much sums up his season thus far. He can dispense with the fingers in the ears routine as he’s well aware he’s way below par. Mings, Barkley, Kamara and Matteson’s part in the goal were the pick, all in the 2nd half…the first half, the less said the better.

He always does that celebration doesn’t he?

Might be that he will be used when we need to set up more defensively when we meet stronger opponents.

He used to do it at Everton though not as often as he does it with us.

After a incredible start its kind of fizzled out for onana recently. Hasnt been able to stay fit or consistent. Bit disappointing considering the amount we spent  on him.

I know its a long term investment  but we need players  now

Agree with your player picks Bren, Barkley our best player today I thought and took his goal really well.
I think that goal will do Bailey wonders, for me he doesn’t take the shot that hit the bar on, unless he’s scored a few mins earlier.

Other observations.

First half was so dull, doing dry January is not conducive to watching that.
Mings did well, but we miss Torres’ passing
Despite Dignes class defending, we miss the overlapping attacking threat that Moreno gave us down the left. Presuming Mastsen starts against West Ham and does well, I think he should start some league games now.

It was fooking freezing

When did Bailey play for Everton?
