Both are important you’re right JV. Live for today but keep one eye on tomorrow and all that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 It's odd we are getting rid of Sanson..surely the club have spoken to Kamara maybe we can get the best from Sanson with Kamara here. Unless he just hasn't settled in Birmingham maybe and it's too far gone to rescue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just people online saying get rid of him because he doesn’t play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the difference wasn’t clinical finishing. In the City game they had 72% possession. They made 24 attempts to Villa’s 4, they had 5 shots on target and 10 off target (2 and 1 for us). They had 13 corners, we had 1. And so on. They were extremely wasteful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa87 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Just playing catch up - what a statement signing!! If he is as good as his reputation and we get someone like Bissouma on as well then this is transformative. Exciting to see who we get in next. NSWE deserve a proper push for Europe after their investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like us against Watford where we lost with 20 attempts on goal and over 60% possession same vs Brentford and Newcastle, but the were clinical and took their chances , sometimes you don’t have to be the best team statistically to win a match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure he missed chances, but not many teams score 2 vs City. The difference was we conceded 3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a sense yes they probably had 2 or 3 good chances that they could have scored from but we had 3 fairly strong penalty shouts imo. And Watkins had 3 1 on 1s. Objectively speaking we could have had 4 against city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
