Aston Villa vs Notts Forest match thread

[Goldenballs]

Can't take much more of this, I'll be shocked if we don't concede another

[AlexAlexCropley]

Getting battered now.

Stay strong padewan

[Nelly]

Forest aren't a shite team, obviously, but we just can't seem to get any control over this half. Dunno why.

[Martyn Smith]

Getting battered now.

The xG is saying pretty much exactly 2-1 and hardly any of their shots have been on target

[SamTheMouse]

The midfielders and forwards need to stop letting runners just waltz past them.

[Proposition Joe]

Special word for Townsend for being a prick

Always when we play. Applying the principle of charity, maybe he tries extra hard to show he's not biased, rather than actively dislike us.

[jwarry]

Rashford has calmed us down

[enigma]

When they break the attack with pace so directly. We don't seem to know how to handle it

It's what they're good at, at lot of teams have struggled with their fast breaks.

Got to say I'm impressed. There's none of the moving it side to side and slowing it down. Every pass seems to be an attacking pass forward.

I'm glad plenty of their chances have fallen to Williams though. Don't think he's got one on target yet.

Same thing happened at their place. Should have been a comfortable 3 points but once they upped the tempo a bit we shit the bed. And today we're shitting the bed again.

[Somniloquism]

Now you've done it.

[itbrvilla]

Great save

I agree Forest are better than I thought they were

[Somniloquism]

Martinez booked for time wasting. Isn't that a guaranteed 10 mins added nowadays?

[TopDeck113]

Now entering "when we lost it at the City Ground" time. I'm shitting myself.

They're a one trick pony, good trick though.
