Aston Villa vs Man United Post-Match Thread

[Clampy]

A mention for Lindelof. He's been alright hasn't he?

[TonyD]

Alright.  Not great. 

[TonyD]

I think the reason the midfield wasn’t great today was because we didn’t have Pau playing it out and Kamara had a poor game. 
When is Pau back?

OK but not great. He was indecisive for their goal. Hope Pau is back v chelsea.

Yeah agreed, he’s ok but I think our indecisiveness generally is influenced by Pau’s absence. I got the impression he’s not back before early Jan at the best, sadly, but I may be wrong.

I though Emery said yesterday two or three weeks for Torres.

Yes, been generally solid and what you’d expect of a squad player who you’d hope would play no more than 10 or so games. Didn’t do anything wrong today that I can remember.

Lindelof being marked lower than the rest of the defence seems a bit harsh.

i thought Lindelof played very well, irs all about opinions.Watkins played his socks off but was totally isolated and his only service was punts upfield from Emi. Watkins scored shitloads of goals when we had wingers providing a service. If Unai is hsppy to play him then I'm hsppy to go along with that. Watkins scoring or not we have won 16 in 18 matches, so for those having a go at him stop the moaning and stop looking for scapegoats, we are WINNING GAMES ffs.

That’s probably the worst our midfield unit of Kamara, Onana and Tielemans have played in ages, they wasn’t particularly good at hardly anything. They were out bossed for most of the game. However we still probably had the best chances, albeit early on, but we’re still showing we have World beaters in the team, even when off our game.

Did we have any chances, did their keeper make a meaningful save?

Exactly Malcolm….we don’t need excuses or scapegoats for winning

In the first few minutes yes. But then Martinez didn't have to do much either apart from the Sesko close down.

[Meanwood Villa]

It's so good to beat these fuckers. Sign of the times they're claiming moral victories and taking the positives from losing while we go marching on.

[KingstandingVilla]

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

Thought he was pretty fair tbh.

I was surprised he could speak how far up Manyews arse his tongue was, especially first half.

That today was for all the bent decisions, cheating refs, dodgy penalties, two goal leads thrown away, stoppage time winners, disallowed goals, 4-0 batterings, fans dancing on the pitch, Dwight Yorke and Ashley Young celebrating against us... Happy Christmas Man United, you've seen the Villa, met the reaper, now fuck off home.

[not3bad]

Thank god for morgs. Watkins has to be replaced asap

He is dreadful.

We need a poll on the Watkins thread to see how many people are still Watkins Worshippers.

A reckon a few have become atheists over the past few weeks.

Very sad but it's true he was a liability today.

It should be noted Watkins got an assist on the 2nd goal.
