Aston Villa vs Man United Post-Match Thread

[JUAN PABLO]

Thank god for morgs. Watkins has to be replaced asap

Without Ollie, Morgan doesn’t score the second.

not far from an assist that

Never in doubt.

Always in doubt. Mount had the run of our midfield. We have the hottest player on the planet right now and that's why we won.

Largely agree with this, although I thought Lindy did okay, given that the oppo were very aggressive in the press.

Most of the opposition players and the manager worked with Lindelof until 6 months ago so they would definitely know any weaknesses to his game, especially on his weaker side.

He was slow in stepping up to try to stop Cunha or at least putting him off taking aim.

Rob Edwards will be getting jealous.

Had this aged banger in my head all day.  But Unai's the Hoodoo Guru.

Hilarious. As the game ends the lass on Sky Sports just said “we have to keep talking about them until they drop off”. Seriously love, do fuck right off.

Maybe but Arsenal and Citeh control games. We don't, that could be/surely must be intentional to agree but I'm not sure how sustainable it is to keep winning by the odd goal. Rogers can't play out of his skin in every game.

That was a hard watch. We had very little control of the game and consistently gave the ball away and lost possession. So nice to have played poorly and won. I’ve seen us play much better against them in the past and we’ve lost or drawn at best. Watched on Sky which is rare for me as I go to the home games. As has been mentioned many times on here their coverage is so biased against us but a kinder more balanced analysis in the post match analysis.

Back to MUTV business as usual on Sky.

It was an assist.

[PeterWithesShin]

Last 5 against them at VP

W2 D2 L1.

We're becoming their bogey ground.

Neither did in their defeats to us.

Absolutely

[eamonn]

Did John e get his bare arse out by The Holte Pub...just asking ..

There was too much drizzle for that shizzle. He can revisit his promise when the sun comes out.

[eamonn]

Neville can get it up him too the red twat. More biased than the ref today.

Thought he was pretty fair tbh.

[pelty]

Awful performance really. I think only three players played up to par. Was quite impressed with Man United. Tactically they did us in midfield, both Cunha and Mount were very impressive. Fortunate we have this complete freak of a player playing on our left today. Outstanding.

Martinez 7 - solid throughout
Cash 5 - awful mistake for the goal, made one great block in second half
Konsa 6 - one great block too but a bit iffy including  a weird defensive header
Lindelof 4 - shocking indictment on West Ham they didn't press him onto his left foot like today, Konsa and him watched Cunha miss that sitter
Maatsen 6 - a bit meh but had a big problem next to him
Kamara 5 - poor today, caught ahead of ball constantly
Onana 5 - age old problem evident again - unable to play on half turn
McGinn 8 - great ball to Rogers for the first, battled really well
Rogers 9 - outstanding goals, dug us out of a massive hole today with his quality
Tielemans 4 - really poor. Anonymous first half and not much better in second
Watkins 4 - midfield was the problem position today but can't ignore his current level of performance

Not sure about subs today, Buendia should have come on a lot earlier I thought. Digne was ok.

Largely agree with this, although I thought Lindy did okay, given that the oppo were very aggressive in the press.

I think this is pretty good, but I actually thought Maatsen was pretty solid today and thought McGinn was poor by his standards.
