villa4europe Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 We've been poor, but it's still 0-0 and Norwich don't look great. very much this think bennetts yellow is worrying, norwich havent battered us or created that many chances, we've been shit and must get better but its not as bad as some will make out, just been a very poor game all round by both teams Link to comment
P3te Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Why so **** shit today? Cocky **** syndrome? Young, inexperienced team shitting themselves might be more likely Link to comment
heid3ster Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Nervy first half. Bennett needs to settle down and stop fouling or he's going to get sent off. Lucky to go into the second with the score still 0-0, though. If we calm down and keep our heads we can still take this. Link to comment
sonic_bouma Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 looks like we are hungover from Monday awful performance, where is our midfield? norwich are walking through us, Sylla is the only one trying to close down we are so keen to pass backwards, nobody is taking the ball on as for our first touches it appears all of our front three have **** lead for boots we will lose this unless we don't improve Link to comment
R.I.C.O. Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Winning 6-1 has really got into their heads. This is exactly what happened after we beat Liverpool. Thank god we made it to half time without conceding Link to comment
dudevillaisnice Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 What we lack is composure Link to comment
PaulC Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 They have just not given us the space to play like Sunderland did. Not easy, could go either way. 1 Link to comment
P3te Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 This is going down to the Wigan game where we'll need to avoid defeat to stay up! No it's not. There are 2 teams between us and Wigan as it stands ffs Link to comment
sonic_bouma Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Bennett is so dense needs to grow some brain cells Link to comment
R.Bear Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 We're Aston Villa - we never do anything easy Sunderland beg to differ Link to comment
AndyM3000 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Norwich have been closing down Sylla and Westwood pretty well, also pressuring back line. They wont be able to keep it up all game, 2nd half should be better for us. West Ham goal would make life easier too. Ill take a draw if Newcastle and Wigan lose. Link to comment
OutByEaster? Posted May 4, 2013 Moderator Share Posted May 4, 2013 A little outfought, outstrengthed and not quite at it. Wake up calls for Benteke and Weimann and a bit more fire and we can still take this. Ref needs to get a grip on Holt. Link to comment
smetrov Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 God that was poor - bennet terrible - with one sub used - how long does lambo leave it ? Link to comment
sexbelowsound Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Nothing to do with over confidence, there is another team on the pitch you know! Norwich are pressing high and stopping us from playing our game. This is where we need a plan B or hope we can hit them on the break. On a side note, How Grant Holt gets away with his persistent fouling is beyond me. Link to comment
jamdog Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Norwich are just playing much better than Sunderland I think. Need to start a lot better second-half. Baggies are playing pretty well but Wigan still look dangerous. Link to comment
Bunnski Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 fair play to Norwich, they are really taking the game to us. hopefully we can come out and step it up in the second half Link to comment
Villa87 Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I worry that Norwich will focus even more on Lichaj and Bennett. Sylla is having a decent game, but all three strikers are way off the pace. I know in some games this is the case and then the grab a goal or two but I worry that they won't get the chances or make the chances in the second half. Need to get out of first gear and fly out of the traps. Link to comment
smetrov Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Just like the fulham game- but without the goal Link to comment
jamdog Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Newcastle playing much better apparently. Sort it out, Big Sam. Link to comment
P3te Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 God that was poor - bennet terrible - with one sub used - how long does lambo leave it ? Doesn't really have any options, unless he brings NZogbia on to play left back. All we've got on the bench is Given, Holman, Bent, Bowery, NZogbia and Bannan Link to comment
