Bologna v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Meanwood Villa]

They've mixed them up with Fiorentina

We did a job on them thats for sure. We were pretty slow and abit crap 1st half. Thankfully their goal was offside. As much as we dislike var that would have been given had there been no var in place.

Second half was a lot better. Olie back scoring in form helps us at the right time. He knows he has tammy breathing down his neck so this is bringing  the best out of ollie.

Their keeper was shite so bad. Rogers was pretty crap tbh and bailey should just be left in italy. Shambolic footballer

Typical European performance from us, we rode our luck a little, then stepped it up and won easily.

Is that a once in a lifetime performance from Rowe, I know we’ve been interested in him before but I can’t recall seeing him play anything like that before?

[eamonn]

From the highlights, it looked like everything went for us. Did we create anything notable without it being gifted?

Bologna must hate us, they haven't played badly in any of the three games against us, yet we've ended-up winning them all. Wish this type of thing happened when we play ManUre.

I watched Rowe last night and thought what an upgrade on Bailey, pace, power and shooting ability. There was however an incident at Marsaille, was it a blip or a pointer to a behavioural problem

Was speaking to an OM fan last weekend. His take on that was that the "fight" was leaked by OM in order to sugar the pill of the departure of two of their best players. There's no chance that kind of stuff gets out the dressing room, otherwise.

But I did read this morning somewhere that Rowe also left Norwich under a cloud.

He'll be alright with our lads, plus would be a nice contrast to have someone playing in Bailey's place with an ounce of fire in his belly.

Brilliant win I'm so pleased.

Whilst Rowe played well last night I hope the club aren't going to throw big money around based on one performance, unlike some on here.

Unlike some on here, I doubt very much doubt the people involved in recruitment at any professional club these days would consider doing that.

Of course with no technology it doesn't get given because it looked like Cash had cleared it off the line. The ref didn't look like giving it until his watch beeped.

Let's finish the Italian Job next week without letting in an early Villa-esque goal.

Onto Forest. Reckon a crazy draw!

5-5, Tammy to score four. Cash own-goal for one of theirs.

On top of that, how come that tech can make such a close call in less then a second. (apart from one really noticeable case)
