Brentford vs Aston Villa LC Rnd 3 Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

In the Emery era, I’ve nene seen this devoid of creativity in the final third of the pitch. And I never thought I would.

[VILLA MOLE]

How often are we turning teams around these days

[passport1]

My word we are poor

[PaulWinch again]

We are playing okayish, but still look like we've no energy about us.

It’s got to be confidence.

[PeterWithesShin]

We seem slow even compared to their second 11.

[Beard82]

think were moving it quicker - pau helping it - look fairly bright - but game is bypassing our midfield

[Brazilian Villain]

0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1. Then we scored 5 at Spurs.

I got the C++ and compilation jokes but that one's lost me.

It appears if you fall over this ref will give you a free kick

[Demitri_C]

Created virtually nothing in opening 30 mins.

What midfield?

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

Sancho seems to be popping up all over the place. Maybe he's been given the freedom of rogers. just need to get him on the ball more

[Toronto Villa]

It’s like we are thinking too much. All too deliberate and predictable. Easy for the opposition to work out what we are doing. Our positioning is slow more than it just being about raw pace.

[cdbearsfan]

Should we not have had a pen, then?

[ez]

The gameplan is the constant in all this.

[cdbearsfan]

Maybe not.
