We're 20th in the Premier League. I wish we'd fire the manager and hire Conte.I wonder what our first half stats are the past 20-30 games. My gut says its below average at best.

What game are you watching?Villa will be kicking themselves how they aren’t winning this game by at least 2 goals. They look the team more likely to score. We’ve created hardly nothing in that half.
Villa making it difficult… wow, our standards really have droppedNot really? Villa are making it difficult to find any space around their box, but we still had a few near misses. We've been fine
If freds job is purely a defensive one, ie to harras the oppo and make tackes, then might as well stick a CB or even a full back in there...Greenwood was our best player. Maguire was very good as was AWB. Fred was average as usual, great in defence but the guy can’t pass or compose himself.
The only clear one has been the greenwood one to be fair.Maybe not, stats wise. But watching the game, we did create many opportunities.
Whom would you bring on for both?If Ole doesn't take McFred off ASAP, I will drive the taxi to the airport myself. Totally unacceptable to be overconservative against Aston Villa and even less playing with such mediocre midfielders.
Imagine a striker facing the empty net from five yards out but slicing it over the bar somehow. That is a shot off target but an xG of probably 0.95 or something.sorry for being a bit thick, but how can their expected goals be greater than the attempts on target?
I'd like to see Greenwood stay wide like he did when he came on against West Ham the other day. They're playing with wing backs too, so he'll get 1v1 opportunities.Yep AWB going forward has been excellent considering he's by himself all the time.
Its starting to piss me off this, Ings was down for a bit, the goal keeper was fecking about and they were kicking the ball away.You just knew Dean would blow bang on 4 minutes, despite the ball being out of play for 2 minutes of injury time.
So you are a taxi driver?If Ole doesn't take McFred off ASAP, I will drive the taxi to the airport myself. Totally unacceptable to be overconservative against Aston Villa and even less playing with such mediocre midfielders.
But not real chances, maybe some half chances or crazy shots from far outMaybe not, stats wise. But watching the game, we did create many opportunities.
Was nice to see us kick in gear early, I think we played well, some mistakes as always but not bad at all.Can’t follow the game today - how have we been, any good?
Martial's fault
Let's just go full short term fc and hire Mourinho againWe're 20th in the Premier League. I wish we'd fire the manager and hire Conte.
We got into a lot of good positions that should have led to a goal or a big chance but we kept fecking it up with poor decision making.Maybe not, stats wise. But watching the game, we did create many opportunities.
Manchester City are completely dominant, they're hardly allowing Chelsea to have the ball. All they've done so far is park the busThere are some incredibly toxic people on redcafe lately, it's just astonishing.
City and Chelsea are doing feck all, 0 shots on target for the first half. Yet there are some posters here wanking over their "amazing setup" and "looking well organized".
We have 15 shots vs 4 for Villa (3 of them coming from individual mistake, not because Villa's coach outsmarted Ole), we've had much more possession and yet the same people claim that "Villa is dominating us".
I mean, c'mon. We should easily be 2-0 up already. We are winning this in 2nd half, and comfortably.
Fred needs to be replaced by VDB and Sancho needs to come on surely.
It’s not all or nothing though is it? It’s literally nothing. If we’d won the Europa last season & the FA cup the season before, whilst climbing up the league table, then maybe you’d have a point. We have won nothing in years.Don't be ridiculous
This just shows your complete hyperbole. All or nothing and nothing in between.
Is that what your life is like, complete perfection in everything you do?
That 15 includes Fred's Hollywood shot as well. Just shows how stats are meaningless if you don't explain the context.15 shots and 3 chances in a single half isn't creative enough?
Can get you ushered on for loitering in some parts. Wouldn't recommend it.Does lying down behind the wall work?
HGV driverSo you are a taxi driver?
Dunno who he is, but he's got a Cheshire/Wirral area accent. Almost certainly a dipper.This commentator twat is ridiculous. Every time a Villa player goes down it's "Yehh, [United player] is claiming his innocence, but that's a foul for me." Every time a United player goes down: "[Villa player] saying he went down easy. Might have a point."
That's just as ridiculous as saying we're playing shit.I often believe that bots come to this forum just to say we are playing shit. Great game by us so far, just missing the goals.
My theory is that he escapes criticism because people forget he's on the pitch.Technically McTominay has been worse as he hasn't been involved at all
We have been threatening too.. haven't finished..Very much like the West Ham game, we're just taking every opportunity to shoot into bodies rather than picking out the threatening pass. If we're being honest Villa have been the most threatening but thankfully they're not taken their chances.
We should hire Potter, he's a much better manager than most in the big clubs at the moment. Huge chance missed.Let's just go full short term fc and hire Mourinho again
