It didn't warrant a red card reaction, but Diego's brain was late to catch up with his brawn, as usual. Another example of how he is too much of a liability for Villa and I expect the impetus to sell him just got a little nudge tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawnsworth Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 FFS Diego. Absolute gobshite. A slap on the chest when you're already on a yellow is asking for trouble. Even if there was VAR it would be hard to argue against that being a yellow. Gobshite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMcKenna Posted August 1 VT Supporter Share Posted August 1 We look so, so disjointed. I know the full squad isn’t available but why bother with friendlies if we are going to be so shite? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if we could get him but Simakan for them is highly rated and can play both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMelvillan Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 We should totally sneak on 11 for the second half btw. What they gonna do to punish us? Take away our visa's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bose Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 It’s not like we’ve being playing a very weakened team either. Cant draw too many conclusions but Cash is not good enough to be a starter for a Champions League club, Barkley looks unfit and slow. Illing jr looks levels below what’s needed. Actually thought Diego looked sharper earlier on than in the last games but to get a red card in a friendly is just a brain dead move. Worrying with not a lot of time left before our first match.

nepal_villan Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Reading the first half observations, for once it seems like we are all watching the same game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Iling-Junior has looked okay to me, reminds me of when an academy player first gets into the first team and at first is a little too scared to try anything beyond being safe, but hopefully as he gets more minutes will gain more confidence, but it's definitley way too early to judge him, same goes for Barkley, and that goes both ways too, can't get carried away with the players that have looked impressive, although have to say Onana has oozed impressivenss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtend4life Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Diego gave up wanting to play from about thirty minutes in. Then it was just how many times he could have a 1v1 against Openda, and not in a footballing sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted August 1 Moderator Share Posted August 1 I think if one of the purposes of pre-season is to decide on your best XI, then I guess we're making positive steps. It's another good day for Konsa, Watkins and Tielemans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaCas Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 1 minute ago, VillaJay said: Poor half overall, but Barkley and Illing Junior look particularly poor. Pau Torres and Onana the best of a bad bunch. Absolutely agree. Early days but both look miles off it Illing Jr won’t feature much this season stupid from Carlos but ref should have handled whole thing better I’ve noticed how much we rely on VAR and without it in these friendlies we’ve conceded a couple that normally would be ruled out A bad tour for us and doing little for confidence clearly need two or three class signings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
