Just a very brief one, but how good was that result? We win at Bournemouth, Ollie surpasses Gabby as Villa’s highest Premier league goalscorer and is also the highest scoring English player in the Prem.
The only blot was Ramsey getting sent off for what was barely a foul, let alone a second yellow, in my opinion. Harsh isn’t the word.
It was a poor game though and the last fifteen minutes had me practically panicking as the pessimist in me expected them to score with all the pressure they applied. And what about that save off the line by Cash in the last few minutes? I nearly filled my shorts.
That said, I felt we controlled the game really well, defended well enough to keep them at bay and actually looked the better side for most of the game, while producing the majority of the threat.
So deserved then.
Any bad performances? Not really, although I thought Asensio was invisible again. I don’t see that he’s done enough to justify us signing him at his wages. But then I wouldn’t say there were any particularly good performances either. It was all just a bit, er, average really, wasn’t it?
It was all about the result though and the lads got it, which is all that matters. Well done.
And a big shout out for the fans too, who were outstanding and my man of the match. If you can actually give it to a crowd?
Great result!
97. 48. 27. That’s PL games under Unai, goals and assists. Outstanding. Leave Ollie alone.
Leave Cashy alone. Also outstanding. Refuses to be ousted.
Mings plays. Clean sheet. Again. Leave Tyrone alone.
Brilliant away win. Don’t underestimate it. Leave Unai alone. 👏👏👏👏👏
Now please dismantle Tottenham. Unceremoniously. No mercy. Get the goal difference up. Rock n roll em like we did Newcastle…
I’ve complained about all 3, as have many.
Two I’ll give you, but I can’t agree about Cash. He’s more bad than good and we need better, imo.
He just got the 2 points back that Disasi binned, Badger. And he works his tits off every game! Leave our Matthew alone!
And watching MOTD it’s Cash’s tackle that regains possession for Chesty to put the cross in (his only contribution in 90 minutes) that wins the match.
He is THE weakest link, hence goodbye, imo. But I’ll give you Unai seems to like him.
Apart from that save, did he do anything?
Always caught out of position and doesn’t cross anywhere near well enough for me.
I honestly struggle to see any redeeming thing about him, apart from the fact that he’s a good grafter who trains well and I’d rather see Garcia get a run.
Unai definitely has his favourites and in fairness, he’s making mostly good choices.
Oh Badger mate, to turn a blind eye?
Cash, for all his faults saved the day but Chesty, your pin up boy?
Mate apart from the cross (and it was a great cross) he absolute f**king mate!
Even the commentators quoted the fact he had less touches than any player on the pitch.
Great win and happy days but if we are going to find faults with players performances Chesty has to get a mention.
