Reluctant Striker 134 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I don't understand how many Villa matches have been on recently. But Villa vs Man City or Chelsea feels like a regular choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reluctant Striker 134 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Coutinho & Buendia both on the bench. Ings starts, with Watkins out wide. I feel I agree with the 1st bit, but would use Ramsey more advanced, with whatever 3rd midfielder while Kamara is injured. So Nakamba or Dendonker, as Sanson literally is waiting for some French club to take him home. The best Villa can do is somehow scrape something. Best Chelsea can do is a big demolition job.

Bluebird Hewitt 1,282 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 A superb assist from Mings gives Mount a simple chance out of nowhere and takes it to give Chelsea the lead. 1-0 Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait until a player tries to shoot from outside the box. Riding on some good fortune as of late. Football needs to improve and Potter’s biggest task is to improve the attacking players. Something Tuchel was incapable of doing for the past 2 years. Reece James being out shouldn’t excuse a drop in such form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majority of the attempts were savable, but there were 2 in particular where Kepa deserves a lot of credit. Backline looks a lot more calm and composed with Kepa as opposed to Mendy. There seemed to be a trust issue with the latter and it showed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reluctant Striker 134 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Fulham away & Brentford at Villa Park up next. Honestly feels to me anything less than 4 points really should be making people get very serious as to who takes over from Gerrard. While it still could seem reasonably attractive to a good proven manager. Something needs changing, because the club is comparatively spending more than in a long, long time, yet just spaffing around like bottom 6 is the expectation.

Just came up against a better team. I don't agree that a minimum of 4 points should be expected from your next 2 games. I think if you beat Brentford but loose to Fulham that's not what you want but I wouldn't sack gerrard based on that. Fulham away is a tough game.

Cicero 5,267 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 We weren't the better team. By all accounts we won that game because of Kepa and a couple "moments" from Mount. Kepa, Koulibaly, and Chalobah the only real performers. Villa dominated us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been a performance improvement, as far at it goes, since the Man City game. And I get that in 1 year it could all be turned around, like Arteta. But right now Gerrard is 1 year in, and it's near enough the same league position he came in with. Adding Coutinho to Buendia, rather than another pacy wide attacker to Bailey must be largely on him & it's showing zero sign of working to me. I get that some players in the squad are either not at it, or more worryingly, just not suited to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought you were a little unlucky, you had a fair few chances just couldn't put them away, Kepa pulled off a couple of great saves that kept us in front, don't think you lacked commitment and effort just didn't have the luck..
