Villa Match Thread

[RumbleFox]

Never a foul on Grealish initially. 

[filbertway]

There'll be a red in the 2nd half if thats how Oliver if reffing the game.

 

How was that not offside though?

[urban.spaceman]

Bullshit. 

[Flappit]

They're getting our players booked by making a massive fuss over nothing challenges. 

[whoareyaaa]

great first half, nacho is on fire.

 

should have seen that first half out Grelish is a pony

[yorkie1999]

For a player whose calf’s can’t even fit in his socks he don’t half fall over a lot.

[foxes_rule1978]

Gives Villa hope, need to get that third goal quick, Vila particularly Grealish look dangerous when moving forward 

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

We've looked a bit careless at the back today. Very disappointing that we've conceded at that moment.

I mean tbf they deserve that. They've hit the bar, they've thrown men forward, they've really attacked. 

Could have atleast scored a legit goal though

Offside!!

Who?

This referee is ****ing crap, state of both of our yellows.

 

We've been well on top here. So annoying them getting that goal just before half time. Go in at 0-2 and I think we go on to win this probably 0-4 or something. Not annoyed at the way we've played at all we've been very good. Iheanacho again looks brilliant.

[Legend_in_blue]

The protection Oliver is giving that wannabe Grealish is ridiculous.  

[Brooksy]

Thought Oliver was a decent ref. Shocking half from him

[NaijaFox]

Ref gets an assist on the Villa goal. 

[Jonezy]

Grealish is a pretty good footballer but his constant moaning and falling at every opportunity is disgusting. And even the super refs like Oliver lets him getting away with it and giving soft yellows and freekicks. 

[Sly]

It was a goal. 
 

The player standing in an offside position didn’t get involved. That’s going wide if Ricardo doesn’t make contact, so I’d imagine it’ll go down as an OG surely? 
 

It just shows though. Worth having a pop in the vicinity.

 

I just hope the wasted final balls don’t come back to haunt us.

[justfoxes]

Come on City put this to bed please second half !!🙏

[whoareyaaa]

and 4 yellows in the first half in the previous game and the same again today hmm dodgy officials 

[StriderHiryu]

Brilliant half! What a great game to watch and massive respect to Villa who have looked very good in parts. Jack Grealish I don't like as a person, but as a player he's been different class.

 

Frustrating to concede bang on halftime when otherwise the game looked liked it had already been won, but they probably deserve one goal in this game.

 

Got to concentrate for the second half. The diamond system is interesting. I think it means more chances for us, but it makes the game more chaotic and less controlled, stretching the game and making it feel very end to end. Maybe we need to change it back just to manage the game as they will have their tails up now. That said, we could easily have scored another and some of our attacking play has been incredible. It's also unleashed Ihenacho who has been brilliant.

[car1os]

Thought there was an offside there... in all fairness, they deserve a goal. Thought Grealish would score.  We’re looking good though, so pleased for Ian getting his second!

 

Let’s get a third and put this to bed!!

You can see him ending up at Manchester United.

[Nuge]

Grealish gonna do his best to get Ricky sent off today then 

[st albans fox]

Dreadful game management btw

Oliver is proper wanting us to slip up, lose points or even players going forward, two yellows for nothing tackles. 

He was totting up - he was gesturing with his hand that he’d committed several fouls…. It wasn’t given for that specific tackle
