Aston Villa vs Everton post-match thread

[Sexual Ealing]

Very disappointing effort, but their goal was a cock up from both Torres and Martinez and if Rogers had his shooting boots on we would have won.

We lost though, didn't we?

[brontebilly]

Martinez needs to come for that cross for their disallowed goal too. Takes a step to go for it but hesitates. Guessand half hearted too.

[SaddVillan]

This is my solution to the problems that we saw today:

Clearly Wes and Naseef need to shut the business down, sell everything off and give up our memberships of the Prem and UEFA.

And every one of today's team needs to be shot.

To be fair - I thought Guessard was being pushed by there off side guy.  I though that is why it was deemed he was interfering with play

[Deano's Mullet]

This time two years ago we lost to Man Utd and Newcastle and bounced back. We need a bit of luck with injuries though. Hopefully McGinn back soon and Kamara/Onana too.

[Flamingo Lane]

Martinez could have caught that shot it was so weak.

He didn't even need to dive. It was so easy, he chose one for the cameras.

[wolfman999]

First home game I've missed in ages. Luckily, I picked a stinker. Guessand looks like a puppy chasing a balloon. No wonder Monchi was kicked out the door spending Gbp35mill we haven't got on a player who would struggle in the Championship. What was he thinking?

[Ads]

Awful performance. Sloppy in everything we did. Injuries have caught up with us today; 4 midfielders out, somebody marginally less useless than Guessand out ill, squad thin as it was.

Didn't deal with the high ball, awful mistake for the goal. Buendia was fucking appalling.

[Villatillidie25]

Martinez - 4 - basically nothing to do and drops another clanger. Fast becoming very replaceable come the summer.
Cash - 6 - did ok and kept Grealish out the game but meant he offered little going forwards
Konsa - 5 - bullied by Barry and no incision in his passing.
Torres - 5 - clanger for the goal
Maatsen - 7 - our best player. Shame he went off but he’d don’t a lot of running and suspect Emery thought they’d be sitting deeper so limit Maatsen’s space.
Tielemans - 6 - pretty anonymous. Closed down v well
Bogarde - 4 - poor, especially on the ball. Badly miss Onana and Kamara
Buendia - 6 - tried a lot, looked quite dangerous but boy does he give it away with some sloppiness
Guessand - 3 - did he actually play?
Rogers - 6 - crowded out a lot. Got q petulant when consistently fouled. Not a game for him. We need to find other ways to play than just through the middle
Watkins - 3 - just what’s happened to him. He’s been useless nearly all season. If it’s an injury then he should have been rested and Malen played but we can’t even do that now.

Subs
Digne - 5 - did fine
Hemmings - 6 - looked lovely. Too soon to expect loads from him though.

went  for a walk , clear my head.


Even with 4 midfielders out we had enough chances to win , If Rogers had the right boots on thou the Pickford one was a great effort .

We was absolute awful but still should have beat that tripe , Garner getting MOM for his tackles in the last 20 minutes when the pusher should have been off and at 0 0 with 10 men , Villa win it , the ref bottled it like most of them done against a team like Villa.

I thought buendia tried , some wank stuff and some great stuff , I thought Maatsen was really good , I wouldnt have taken him off.

guessand other than a good header was rubbish and I really want him to do good here but I saw worse players under Remi Garde ,  the malen signing should have been put off , injury or not , Villa come first unless you have your player already in .

Disapointed in Watkins , thought he was a waste of a shirt today but we have no choice unless you just through a younger in and to  be honest they couldnt do any worse.

Most of them was meh , Torres did his once a mth fuck all but come on , Martinez what
you doing with that feeble save, pathetic.

I wasnt bothered about catching up Arse , to me its about the distance from Liverpool. yan and chavski but Im sure and hope this is just a kick up the back side and get some bloody players in , I mean would Elliot have been any worse that Guessand.

off for a glass of red .

[SamTheMouse]

The poor performance and mistakes were all due to having no steel whatsoever in midfield and nobody in there capable of collecting the ball from the defence whilst under pressure.

It fucked our game plan, because most of what we do hinges on that first pass.

Unfortunately, if Kamara and McGinn are both out for a couple of months, I don't think our season will recover. They're just too important. We're in for a pretty choppy spell, I fear.

[wolfman999]

Last season, it was at Centre Half. This season midfield. Can't we try to spread the injuries around a bit ffs.

[PaulWinch again]

Not good enough obviously. Pau cocked up, but Emi’s attempt at a save was fucking pathetic.

The midfield situation is obviously a huge issue, and I have sympathy there. I don’t for the utter balls up we’ve made on attacking options. It was a big risk to sell Malen before this game, we had nothing to change the game.

Agreed.  Worst performance for a long long time.

Sounds like you've already had a few!
