[Albion] Premier League 19-23/02

[The Wizard]

Leicester are so impressive, clinical.

 

[Is it PotG?]

I will not have it said that Villa, like Man Ure and Palace, are a one man outfit.

 

[dazzer6666]

What’s the betting, Martinez, after being world class against us,throws at least one in today.

....about a minute after the commentator says he’s been brilliant........

 

[Swansman]

Told you.

Probably wouldnt have happened if you didnt say anything. I blame you.

 

[Bombadier Botty]

To get above Villa, Leeds and Palace would be fantastic. Could happen.

Wish I’d said it before we played them.

Martinez reverting to being absolute turd against Leicester, typical eh?

 

[Pevenseagull]

This feels a bit like struggling to open a stiff jar, passing it to someone else and them popping it open effortlessly.

 

[The Wizard]

Martinez reverting to being absolute turd against Leicester, typical eh?

Not really reverting, Martinez is an outstanding goalkeeper, granted he’s had a nightmare here but near enough every time I watch Villa he makes plenty of saves, seen him keep them in so many games.

 

[Jolly Red Giant]

You have to be impressed with the job Rodgers has done with Leicester.

Thumbs up for another Irish manager doing a good job.

If you look at xG against as an indicator of the goalkeeper doing a good job Villa are right up there (along with Burnley and Fulham). As an aside, we've gone from being bottom for games before Sanchez took over permanently to 4th best.

 

[Medwayseagull]

Did Grealish get injured trying to fight his way out of Veltmans pocket ?

 

[Steve in Japan]

No doubt he's a lovely fella, but Schmeichel does behave like a complete **** sometimes.

 

[lawros left foot]

Commentator has just said, Maddison “ dropped his shoulder onto his left foot”
No wonder he’s injured himself.

 

[Questions]

Mings can smell something coming here.

 

[The Wizard]

Villa look totally devoid of creativity without Grealish. Barkley invisible without his football friend.

 

[lawros left foot]

I’ve enjoyed this game.

A bit of a rarity recently.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

West Ham keep on producing the goods. Good on 'em

 

[Motogull]

No doubt he's a lovely fella, but Schmeichel does behave like a complete **** sometimes.

By 'sometimes' you mean 'whenever he plays football' you mean?

Imagine him and Dibley in the same team. Poor ref wouldn't get a break from the bleating all game.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Bugger, no Luiz for Arsenal. I needed a laugh.
