Villa (Away) Saturday 4th Jan 3pm (Match Thread)

[RowlattsFox]

Vestergaard has been excellent but you can also rely on a mistake somewhere. Terrible header. 

[StanSP]

If we lose this it's even more frustrating because they were clearly there for the taking with how the game was panning out but we're not good enough going forward. Not courageous enough. 

[les-tah]

Blaming RVN for this. We are well in the game against a weaker villa but just dont have good enough attacking players on e.g Facundo

It was Vestergaard. 
 

Always scores against us Barkley. Always

Same point - it’s unacceptable header. 

[dmayne7]

Mavididi is absolutely toilet. Missed a sitter and it was his inability to control the ball that ruined our chance to break and gave the ball back to them, which ultimately led to the corner

[Fox85]

Mavididi has fuxked us tbh.

 

How the **** he hasn't hit the target on that chance is unreal.

 

It's these situations and poor efforts that will cost us the premier league

[Sandwhale]

****s sake, I just take a moment from the wedding I'm at to check the forum for an idea for how the game is going and like the touch of death, it's just as Villa score...

 

Isn't even the first time this has happened...

[coolhandfox]

That's the difference Mavididi chance is far easier, Barkley far more difficult and takes it.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

**** sake. Another good show for nothing at the moment then.

[Staff]

Subs needed now

Mavididi could pass the ball into the goal it’s a different game

if he could do anything it would be a help

We’re just not good enough. We’ll be in the championship next year. 

And won’t be coming back till the 2030’s 

[Bert]

And this is the problem with trying to play for a draw. This performance so far has been no different to one from under Cooper. Pretty patterns at time. No attacking threat, just trying to defend a game out. 

[Cadno'r Cymoedd]

We haven't lost yet. Still time. But RvN needs to be much better and earlier with subs. And yes, we do need some good signings. 

[cropstonfox]

Boo!.no different to Cooper's games.Grind it out till the opposition score.players not good enough.

[lee7]

Alves/Buonanotte for Ayew please and soon. Give him a chance to run at the full back.

We've not played badly but we have to start winning (even drawing) these kinds of games eventually.

[TrickyTrevLeftPeg]

We had our chance with mavididi and didn't take it. 

 

We've frustrated and on the whole defended well but you need to take your chances when they come. 

 

Our front 3 are really letting us down. And the loss of Fatawu has utterly broken us

[Tuna]

Vesty injured.

[Muzzy_no7]

MAKE THE PISSIN CHANGES YOU MOBY

We haven’t got anyone in our team that could score that 

Our players would differ and send it backwards or look to fall over.

Should be sold isn't good enough 

[Larry_LCFC]

Is the whole point of a subs bench not to ****ing use it when the opposition starts taking control and the pressure gets relentless? It was in neon lights for atleast 5/10 minutes that Villa were about to score. Pathetic management.

Never head it down when defending.

Exactly this why can we never clear our lines properly when under pressure

Good teams people cover others mistakes not one midfielder tracking Barkley.
