Never left a stadium feeling this cheated but think Elyounoussi must have stood on his foot from the on screen replay? It was a harsh call but you can see why it was given, Elmo leant into his back with his elbow, the defender made the most of it. Once it went to var it was always going to be given.

SaintZamboni Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 That was a dire game of football that I had resigned to being 0-0 after about half an hour. Villa were better than us with the ball but I didnt think we were overly troubled. If our goals stands, which I believe it should, I think we hold on to win. Bazunu was poor again. Gap between midfield and forwards was too big today and we lost everything in there. Referee was appalling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maggie May Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 Let’s face it, we were never going to beat Villa. Aside from a great spell of beating them after our promotion when they were truly shite, it’s inherent in the club’s DNA to lose to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 I missed the five minutes around the goal. So, will have to see that later. Apart from that... We had the ball in the net, but it was carelessly offside from Che. He fluffed his shot, but KWP followed up to put it in. We had the ball in the net again, but VAR was conned into giving the foul. From their perspective, they saw both players looking at the ball. there's an arm, there's contact and the player, still looking at the ball moves forward. From the player's point of view, he feels the contact, makes an exaggerated move forward and then falls over to complete the theatrics. We didn't create an awful lot, beyond that. But we're not set up to score shedfuls of goals. Any of those 2 would have got us a point. As either would have put us in the lead, we'll never know if we would have caught Villa pushing up. We did have little spells. Edozie got into good positions early on, before Villa saw the danger and closed that space. We didn't really take advantage of the best parts of his game. He should have been an outlet to pin them back, while AA worked like a terrier on the other side, in an Ely type role. A forward JWP and KWP work really well together, as they always have done. That's one of the pluses we have in the team. We looked a bit isolated in attack, and sometimes we had that whole line being taken out by Villa passing through them. We do look disjointed. Lyanco and Diallo are not first choices. We lack steel in the middle to compliment Lavia and definitely lack a finisher. It's the same problems we've had for a while. The striker in particular. If SR don't want to/ can't address those areas with urgency, and we've waited this long, then we're not going to get the points. Which has been clear to absolutely everyone, since before NJ stepped onto the training ground. If the owners want to faff about for another fortnight and not get in reinforcements, then they should know where the fingers of blame are going to point when we go down. We looked more than capable of keeping a direct Villa at bay. We were a lot more vulnerable when they started to pass through our centre. Again, a Romeu figure is a massive miss. And a centre forward who can lead that line, is another. AA works hard and Ely is versatile and can do a job. But it's a job to stop the opponents, rather than offering a genuine creative threat. They ahve their place in the squad, just as Shane Long did. But we have to hope that the new signings can quickly start to make a difference in this side. We have clear weaknesses in the side, from players who would normally be squad players to the rawness of some of the youngsters. It's tough for the attacking ones in particualr. Edozie's touch and decision making isn;t all it could be. But he's a kid, and that's what you're going to get. Mara's is the same. But I'd not expect anything else at that stage. But, when you need players to make the correct decisions because of where we are, it's very frustrating to see. But there are reasons we are where we are that are well beyond Mara making a poor pass. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly a shoutout for Diallo who managed to produce some of the most dangerous AV attacks by giving the ball away. The prize for stupidity has to go to Elyonoussi for his shove in the players back just before the disallowed goal. The second prize goes to Mara for a succession of stupid pushes especially for the one resulting in Watkin's goal. He wasn't alone Armstrong was doing it all afternoon. Finally Che Adams for doing nothing for an hour including a stupid offside then missing his kick completely. We've just bought a goalscorer in Orsic so why don't we play him. And definitely finally after lining up for the free kick why didn't we hold our line. The whole Villa team would have been offside. Instead we all went backwards and Lyanco's shoulder put Watkins onside. I dont think ELY shoved the player rather than it was disallowed for standing in his foot , i may be wrong but very bloody harsh. How does he keep getting involved? JUST WATCHED LAST 20 MINS OF THE STREAM AS WE SCORED AND WE ARE WAY WAY OFF THE PACE AND QUALITY NEEDED TO HAUL OURSELVES OUT OF THE MESS. sADLY LIKE MOST I FEAR WERE DOWN BUT HOPE WERE NOT .sORRY caps. bollox anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OttawaSaint Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 (edited) Worrying. We just have too many mediocre players in the starting XI. They do some good things like a pass or tackle every now or then but the rest of the time it's fluffing passes, committing silly fouls, losing possession, not shooting etc. To win we need a bit of luck or a decision to go our way. Each game you can see it coming. I lost count of saying "phew, we got away with one there". Eventually even the weaker teams or teams had having an off day will take advantage of one of our mistakes. Rince and repeat nearly every game. We're fooked unless we somehow pull a rabbit out if the hat in the transfer window. Then I read on here that we want to replace one if our 10s with another non scoring 10 and waste $20M that could go towards a decent striker. We're fooked!

Michael Dawson spent much of the last couple of decades repeatedly getting hit on the head, every day. The people here, repeadedly hit their heads on their keyboards watching the team. But only once a week. 🙂 Diallo has strengths to his game. I think he quietly takes up some decent positions. He provided cover when Villa were more direct. They all struggled a lot more when Villa started passing through us. We're playing some low possession stuff. When he's further back (which we did a bit, just to stop those quick Villa passes, and sees not a lot ahead of him, some of his passing and decision making lands us in trouble. He's just another player not quite good enough to take up a specific role in the team, and who gets caught out by similar weaknesses elsewhere. If I were to put him anywhere, it would be where we put JWP. But there's no comparison between the two. So Diallo gets different duties, and isn't great at all of them. That's my thought on it, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Shady Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 Not really surprised we lost this. After 3 wins in a row I half expected this result. I do now think we will just about stay up as we will get points elsewhere. Luckily there is a lot of other shite teams in the league. We have lost against the teams where on paper at least the wins should have come from but after the recent wins I think they could come from anywhere. We are so unpredictable and the players can blow hot and cold from one game to another. Not many are consistant. Also Diallo is shit and plays ok so rarely there is no point in him. Bazunu has potential but is inexperienced and looks nervous and sloppy and he’s not gonna help us at all this season. Surprised the new guys didn’t come on at halftime or by the hour mark. Still the league is still so tight and win the next game and we’re still right in the fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crab Lungs Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 Probably should have been a draw, just about. Marginal decisions, fine margins during the game. Neither team were notably impressive and like someone said, a lot of huff and puff but not much in terms of quality. Having said that, if anyone was going to edge it it was Villa, who just have that momentum and that little bit more quality in their side. Certainly not a performance to ring alarm bells like Forest etc, but an annoying opportunity missed to close the gap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a rule stopping players surrounding the ref. Appeal by raising a hand or calling out maybe but players surrounding or hassling the ref should be stopped. Players getting in the refs face like their opinion matters and what they think might change the refs decision is ridiculous. The refs should be confident and trained enough to make the correct decision themselves. You’d think with var they should never be getting so much wrong.

Wiggles31 Posted 21 January, 2023 Share Posted 21 January, 2023 Diallo is a terrible player. He gave it away countless times like he always does in dangerous areas. He should have been hooked and Lavia left on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
