Basel vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Brazilian Villain]

8 wins in a row, 14 wins out of 16.

If it's not 18 wins out of 20 by the end of the month, serious questions need to be asked about this manager and squad.

Perfect English team in Europe stuff, that's how you do it, use the squad, do the minimum you need to, get the points.

People expecting some sort of methodical demolition are missing the point.

Sense….thank god ( if there is one!)

Lindeløf had a good game, didn t see him put a foot wrong.

Thought he was excellent, reassuring back up.

He had worried me when he played on the left - particularly against Young Boys - but tonight he looked very assured.

We really are stuttering through this competition. We are making hard work of it.

It feels like we should be strolling through it - that’s not being arrogant, we have by far the best team/squad, but we are not scoring enough goals, so every game feels like far more of a battle than it needs to be.


But we are now 3rd with no guarantee of finishing in the top 2.

I think we are strolling through it to be honest. It can be quite dull to watch playing loads of reserves, largely doing just enough without ever looking great or in massive danger either. It has to be part of the plan to get us through without breaking too much of a sweat.

We're top 3. How can we be stuttering?
