vreitti Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Our movement isn't the best. Difficult to get forward when everyone is hiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 This is nothing like the style of football we saw when Smith arrived. Is that his choice or the players? I had Jedinak to get booked - he has. Why? He's slower than me when I'm pissed! I had Dowell to score anytime, why? Because he's in the vicinity of Jedinak and Hourihane do will probably get enough chances to score. I had Sharp to score. He's on fire and playing against a weak defence so it's a no brainer. Villa are so predictable it's embarrassing. I miss the football we saw when Smith came here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players of immense quality and physical prowess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're just constantly giving the opposition a free run at you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 We are neither one thing nor the other, back line is 10-20m deeper than Smith's first games. You can't attempt to play pressing and positive with the such a big gap between the midfield and defence just opens up all this space they are exploiting! All the defensive frailties with none of the attacking benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the defensive frailties with none of the attacking benefits. Thing is, were not actually pressing. We played Jedinak in the hope we could press them high and get them to boot it for Jedinak to win all the headers. As it is, we're not laying a glove on them and they're passing through our midfield.
