And against Brighton too...when he is tired can go to hell. You kind of still sound like a Greek bot. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been well below average by his standards, no point taking him off though as we have no playmaker to replace him. When the game is completely gone rest him.

UpTheVilla26 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 For a team needing 3 goals, we are playing like one with the 3 goal lead. Slow build up, nobody taking shots, it's crap. Don't get me started on Diaby, what does he actually offer? Haul him off and get Duran on, least he will smash a shot in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had Rogers or Tielemans might have been in with a chance. But lost both...obviously. Player are out on their feet, got no beef with any of them I think that's the one positive tonight, we don't look tired, we have lots of other problems but the tiredness that has blighted us for about 2 months now doesn't seem to be there We need 1 last massive push 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummybloke Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Diaby off, he's been terrible. Duran on and cross the ball in instead of passing it from out wide, back ,central, out wide, back, central out wide,back, central, lose it. The amount of times the ball should have been played in and wasn't was embarrassing. Overplaying ourselves out of the cup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
est1874 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Just now, villa4europe said: I dunno, I think that's harsh, their press and off the ball work in the first leg was really good, they're an absolute non entity tonight which is making it more disappointing The Luiz hand ball is this entire tie, we should have gone on to win the first leg, everything was there and it was done I agree. At bare minimum they've been coached and set up brilliantly. They have **** our tactics now for 135+ mins of football and we have little to no response. We're arrogant to think they're shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 We’ve played well, it’s just not our tie on top of the fact we’re the walking wounded right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 We've played ok, up until the final 3rd when we've had a combination of bad decisions, bad luck and poor execution. Don't think we've got 3 goals in us from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthEastVillan Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 1 minute ago, Talldarkandransome said: I have no idea how we aint winning this, they are even giving the ball back when we lose it. I'd take Diaby off for no-one If tapping the ball left and right without shooting or crossing counted as goals we'd be winning 45-1. Problem is we need goals and can't even carve out a chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Your Round Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 This team is tired and when you’re lacking even 10% in mental and physical energy you make poorer decisions, lack the precision in passing and can’t run with the same energy. It’s not great to watch and really frustrating, but this team deserves our support and respect for how far they’ve come. Not to be called shit constantly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 2 minutes ago, osmark86 said: It's a tough ask let's be real. Emery is great, but 3 goals in 45min away from home in a high stakes match like this with a ref that seems a little dodgy? With our most senior attacking player on the bench 20 and 2 18 year old.

Lerner's Driver Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Just now, Tom13 said: Cash and Diaby supporting our attack and we wonder why we can't create clear cut chances against a low block Why doesn't go beyond the full back and cross? He nearly always doubles back and passes sideways or backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 I’d bring Duran on and see if he can mix it up a bit . If bailey is struggling take him off it isn’t worth it now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 We’ve been awful this whole tournament. They’re all tired. Olympiakos want it more than we do. We can’t break them down and we constantly have this problem up against teams that play 11 behind the ball. It is what it is. I think what frustrates me the most is we now have the PL, which we can’t win, the UCL, which we can’t win, the FA Cup which we can’t win (see: Premier League). This was our chance for some silverware unless we just throw everything behind the Carabao Cup. I won’t be too upset as they’re all just spent and we’ve had an amazing PL season. We have seriously limped to the semis in this competition though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
