Aston Villa v Brugge Match Thread

[cdbearsfan]

Maatsen looking a threat.

[SamTheMouse]

Is it wrong that I'm thinking of turning over to the Madrid derby?

[AV84]

Watkins down

[stevo_st]

Needs to be quicker if he’s going for it.
It is on though with the keeper playing CB

[fredm]

And then Watkins does that when it is 4 against 2

[VillaTim]

We really are poor tonight

[Smithy]

We were 4 on 2 then and Ollie takes a punt from 50 yards. FFS.

This has been dire against 10 men, BUT, they will undoubtedly tire as the game goes on, so if it’s 0-0 after an hour, I can see Bailey and Asensio having some joy against that back line…

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

maatsen should have gone short to rashford then...drilled it in low to no one

[JUAN PABLO]

Ollie trying to be Duran.

which is ok If 3 villa players are not running through with nobody marking them.

All the neutrals did ages ago..this has dead rubber all over it

[Hampshire Villa]

Watkins decision making is often very poor

[Rudy65]

Our inability to keep the ball is worrying in general. Brentford on Saturday for instance. Containment is fine but let’s just finish them off with a bit of intensity

[HolteLower]

Surely we have more in us second half?

[steamer]

I woke up and missed 1st 15 mins
Might go back to bed

[SamTheMouse]

Surely we have more in us second half?

We really don't need it, though, do we? Isn't it better to keep our powder dry for bigger battles to come?
