Villa 0-0 Juventus
Positives to take from today
thought kamara was unreal today reminded me of an inform Dougie luiz pulling the strings and outshining tielemens.
thought Bailey looked more confident after Crystal Palace second half great to see him slowly building up in confidence
our defence was a lot stronger to stay linking up well and holding our own well. We kept our shape really well.
10 points pretty much guarantees us to move onto the next stage which is brilliant :). And still close to that top 8.
Mcginn looked inform with that number 10 role.
A few negatives/ maybe controversial options.
the referees were shocking, not only the goal but couldn’t decide a throw in from a free kick and a foul from an offside, I though the officiating is suppose to be better.
I think especially after David coote it does always makes me think about corruption I know it’s more likely incompetence but he was so yellow card happy with us and then there number 19 had about 6 final warnings.
rogers is not at it, so why did Emery not take him off? We have 5 subs to us and we need to use them effectively when the pace is slowing, he waited about 8 minutes to bring on Duran and Barkley a bit strange
I think buendia needs to be given an opportunity we can’t just keep players on the pitch for the sake of it.
think we had a couple of opportunities to score but just seems like our final 3rd play slows down and we are much less creative than we were last season,
so overall a good point given our circumstances but really feel as though if this was us a month ago we would have won comfortably, we have the best defence in the champions league, onto a tough game on Sunday vs Chelsea but back at villa park vs Brentford on Wednesday where I’d really hope we can go out and get 3 points and get going again.
