Aston Villa v Maccabi Post-Match Thread

Job done. 3 points. Soft penalty decision, though.

I’d have been fuming if that had been given against us.

I’m always fuming when a penalty is given against us. Nevertheless, that was definitely a penalty.]

3 pts, job done and we move on, never been so happy seeing the back of a game since playing the filth.

Youri looked like he’d missed a game not 10. Good minutes for lil Emi too.

Anyone know the crowd?

I may have known a couple of them but not all of them.

It was maybe a pen, it was very soft.

Decent win. Would like to see Malen get a run of games up top, looks far sharper and confident than Ollie.

Yeah, Malen actually collects the ball and gets a shot off when he's played through

I always stop off for a pint at the Tyburn House as it’s the one to beat last orders. Tonight here in record time.

Unconvincing display. First half we didn’t look balanced. Guessand and Sancho looked out of it. Onana frustrating. Will still haven’t solved our striker issues. Neither Malen nor Watkins clinical. Rogers passing too wayward for a 10.

McGinn, Buendia and Tielemans made a huge positive difference

Glad that's over, in more ways than one.

We walked down the back of the doug to the north and saw about 10 people with an Israel flag. That was it. Maybe it was all the other side by the trinity?

Most exciting thing was the police plane circling around on the way back to the car.

Konsa is a diving fvcker. Just as well, I guess...

[oldhill_avfc]

Bogarde looked good.
Onana takes too many touches.  Showed up by Tielemans.  Will be interesting to see how he links up with Buendia.
Ongoing concerns up front with poor displays from Guessand and Sancho.
Job done I guess and players back for Bournemouth - so looking good.

Lack of creativity again, but I'm sure when Youri gets to full fitness, he wil solve that problem, couldn't understand why at 2 nil, we were happy to see the game out, rather than go for the jugular.

[Paul.S]

Very easy win without ever getting out of first gear. Good to see Tielemans and Buendia back out there.

[Clampy]

Wasn't the greatest of games but it was a win and the whole debacle is over.

Fairly routine win against poor opposition and felt lime a pre-season friendly at times.  Great cameo from Tielemans when he came on.
