[Albion] Aston Villa vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Coldeanseagull]

We have been awful and also outclassed by Villa. Game is lost but I expect a huge performance second half.

That indicates that villa have class
I hate villa and the sooner a decent club comes in for brycreem boy, the sooner we can bury this voodoo hold they have over us

I expected a loss but not in this fashion.

Same, Villa always seem to have our number but we’ve made it rather easy for them at the back - no combativeness in the midfield has also seriously hurt us.

I think sometimes in these type of games Villa, Newcastle away etc where they’re a very good team and will take us seriously it’s time to change tactics and try and be a bit more robust/competitive

Well this has to be are worst 45mins under De Zerbi. Midfield missing in action constantly losing the ball. Damage limitation now

Everton at the Amex last season

 

[Jim in the West]

So, RDZ - what do we do - try to shore things up, or go all out to try to get back in the match?

 

[nsclurker]

Need to work on defending

Corrected for you

 

[Icy Gull]

Steele is brilliant with the ball at his feet but his goalkeeping is pretty suspect

Third goal should not have stood after that tackle on March. With Attwell on VAR, no surprise though

 

[HangletonGull]

Ok sorry but Hinslewood should be no where near the first team at the moment , games gone just try and score 1

 

[Bodian]

I’d be happy with 3-4 tbh

I want 5, with a hat-trick from Fati.

Hasn’t played a minute of football all season

He played mid week. And we still have potentially another 50 games this season.

 

[keaton]

We've been shit but two goals shouldn't stand. Which is nice

 

[Napper]

Webster won’t get called out but yet again giving it away several times , not good enough him

 

[Robinjakarta]

3 VAR decisions gone against us already. This is turning into a nightmare day.

Attwell.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Well this has to be are worst 45mins under De Zerbi. Midfield missing in action constantly losing the ball. Damage limitation now

We had the worst 45 under De Zerbi last Sunday, and possibly last Thursday as well. Slightly concerning

 

[Gazwag]

Well we haven't had any var apologise this season yet, now we are due 2

 

[The Fits]

I don't know if that was actually any worse than the first half against Bournemouth. They're just a much better team.

 

[Bridcutt]

Webster won’t get called out but yet again giving it away several times , not good enough him

Yeah most of us know he's not good enough. Same as Steele shot stopping, doesn't change anything

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Ok sorry but Hinslewood should be no where near the first team at the moment , games gone just try and score 1

You should be with a statement like that! Game has gone, I'll give you that bit

 

[HantsSeagull]

christ will we ever beat these fuckers?

 

[zefarelly]

I bloody knew this game would ruin my weekend

Makes my Job list for the wife all the more bearable . . .I've missed it all so far!

 

[BadFish]

4-3. We're gone win 4-3
