Aston Villa v Brentford Post-Match Thread

Why were Onana and Barkley on the bench yesterday?

If the ref incorrectly awarded a goal kick and we scored from the play following the taking of the goal kick?
I think we all know the answer.

Yesterday's events were daft, but this isn't the same thing at all.

I think the difference in CL's example is that the ball would have gone dead and play would have stopped.

Well, exactly. If the ball had gone out of play, we'd restarted the game and then scored then the goal would have been given.

So in his "incorrectly awarded a goal kick and we scored from the play following the taking of the goal kick", suggestion then yes, the goal would obviously be given.

My theory is that UE would have brought them on to shore up a lead.

Even at his best that's not Barkley's game. Stuck for a goal and surely he could have come on next to Tammy.

Making up the numbers i reckon, as there was no one else

If anyone remotely believes yesterdays debacle was the purpose of VAR they are on a different planet.

Precisely, this is what VAR is for. https://x.com/PremSportsTV/status/2018058510718668808

Let’s all just stop for a minute and be thankful we’re not Brentford supporters. Imagine having to watch that brand of ‘football’ every week.

Though on the plus side, purchasing away tickets would be a doddle.

After 3 defeats I do not want to be that  small minded person  that want those little fucking upstarts relegated

Probably what the so called elite say about us !

So fair play to the twats and their stupid MON haired manager

What Slot and Guardiola would give to have a luxuriant head of hair like Keith Andrews.

We finally see the back of Glasner this summer, only for Andrews to emerge and Brentford, the new Palace ffs.

Shane MacGowan said he preserved his locks by washing his hair in a basin of Guinness every fortnight.

Well that's not true regarding their home form, they've only lost twice and scored 23 goals, only Arsenal and Man City have scored more.

I dont feel as bad now seeing the proper angles that the ball was way out. Correct  decision- but justa  complete shambles by the refs and the var process. Thats where the frustration  lies.

Would have been far worse if this disallowed incorrectly  as ball didnt cross line
