PSG v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Brazilian Villain]

I'd like to have seen where Asensio's shot would have gone, had it not even deflected for a corner. Looked like it might have curled and nestled into the corner of the net.

Can’t deny our defence has improved since Mings has come in. Just look at how our goal difference has improved. The minute he puts Pau back in - boom..

I fear you might be ignoring some pretty important wider factors. If you think tonight was about Pau, I’d say your probably missing something or have an agenda.

Agenda? You mean viewpoint?!

How does Mings stop any of their goals?

It’s not about the individual goals.. it’s about the game

They didn’t put a single cross into the box. It wasn’t a game where all Tyrone’s attributes make a difference

It'll be just like the time PSG fucked up a 4-0 first leg lead.

If anything, we could have let them have another one.

They must have had an idiot in charge.

We all know it definitely would have. It’s Asensio. Should just count it. 3-2 to PSG. Deal?

I'm.not too sure how much difference Mings would have made overall to be honest. Two of their goals came from belting finishes and on the opposite side too.

[RamboandBruno]

I thought Cash was playing well, but with the early booking always a potential sending off up against the Georgian lad. Difficult as Disasi did get beaten too easily for their second but it was a great finish by a quality player.

Difficult to know what to do next week but maybe he starts with Watkins up top and Rashford out wide. Ramsey didnt do a lot wrong, but we’re never going to retain the ball for long enough to take the pressure off, or offer more of a threat with only one up there. Anythings a risk against such a good side.

Wasn’t the game for Mings tonight. Their press and general speed was what was impressive and Mings has no effect on that.

I prefer Mings to Torres, but let's be clear, the opposition matters. Mings hasn't been up against this PSG team.

All three goals came from the other side, too. Pau played well.

Agree on all points. I prefer Mings, and I also think Konsa is our best right-back. But I thought Pau & Konsa were alright tonight.

Agree too, so if you think Konsa is our best right back, and you prefer Mings to Pau, then who do you play in the Centre?

Indeed. The defensive organisation and strength was very good. This is about some weakness down the right and playing a team that are a much higher level than we have been playing.

Sometimes you just have to accept you were beaten by a better side. At least these days it's PSG in the Champions League rather than QPR in the Championship.

Can’t be all a coincidence though. Play Pau and GD against goes up. Play Mings and it goes down. That can’t be a coincidence. It’s over a fair few games

Think it's a fairly poor performance reflecting back. Kept giving them the ball back time and time again, Martinez kept the score down . The ball players in the team just didn't do it . I think we were too passive and didn't grasp the occasion. Disappointing.

No one bite. That’s two-footed from Coops.

[PaulWinch again]

I thought Onana was very good. McGinn in the first half and Onana after he came on were the only midfielders who really got into them and disrupted them. That carry from Onana late on showed how they could be got at.

[VillaTim]

We also seemed to lack leadership out there , that's the bit where we missed Mings for sure .
