Absolutely horrendous first half performance. Pointless possession and a shocking lack of urgency. Please let this formation die already.
Yes!Also think that Carrick should be allowed to go further up to allow Rooney to go further up.
He's ill along with FellainiWhat happened to Ander?
And we've been poor.those are the only times weve played 3-5-2...
It's just so petulant! RAWK may be deluded but they seem to unite behind their team better than here.Amazing isn't it. A bunch of emotionally flaccid drama queens we have in here.
Calm down you 2.Hey feck off, fish. I clearly remember people saying McNair would have a very hard time against Lukaku and we know how it panned out in the end.
The only way you can blame DDG for the goal is if he has xray vision.Unfortunately de gea cops the blane for the goal. It was coming, especially with the sudden burst of speed from benteke to deliver the ball with his left. Didnt help that he expected benteke to shoot with his left as evidenced by his positioning. More worrying is that weve been playing zombie football once we go behind. Midfield has no bite apart from rooney and the attack is isolated.
Isn't that pretty much every game we played the 3-5-2Don't know why everyone's so surprised. We have never looked good in a 352, apart from pre-season. Southampton, Liverpool, Swansea, Burnley, Arsenal.
We had like 70 % possession and created f all, whats that got to do with our midfielders missing, we have so many attacking players on the pitch from the defense upwards and creating naff all, there's more to it than missing midfielders, because its not like villa are controlling the midfield there just sitting back.Tbf I don't blame Louis for this, all our midfielders are out.
In what way has he been good man?As good as fletch is I think we should put Di Maria on
Except that we shouldn't be playing with a front 3. We have Falcao and Persie who are top class strikers. Mata should be stepping up to playmake, not act as a striker. This is why he's such a passenger; he's diabolically passive and invisible in build up contribution.he does show for the ball. Agreed the midfield trio was never going to work. Thats not the role mata was assigned to, rooney and fletcher are playing in that role, they're are not doing enough to link up play with the front 3, instead pass it out wide 90% of the time. I would like to see carrick out from the back and moved into replace one of fletch or rooney.
No keeper would have saved that. It was right in the top corner and he was unsighted.Unfortunately de gea cops the blane for the goal.
He got turned quite easily tbh, he had time to close him down and not allow the shot, but it was great play from BentekeIve just seen the goal, how is that an awful defensive mistake? apart from missing the header hes did everything right. Hes(Benteke) literally curled the ball round 3 other united players with using his left foot. I don't get what people wanted Evans to do from there.
People are bashing Evans by deafult. Not his fault by any means but he's guilty of absolutely everything...Ive just seen the goal, how is that an awful defensive mistake? apart from missing the header hes did everything right.

I dont see why Evans is being made a scapegoat. He has been alright. Fletcher the worst player...because he has offered nothing positive.We're watching a different game then. How is he at fault for the goal, it was a lucky goal which took a deflection, he was standing in a block.
But carry on. You and others who accuse Evans of everything by default.
not much to be pleased about thoughIt's just so petulant! RAWK may be deluded but they seem to unite behind their team better than here.
ok mr english teacher, yes, because its karma, what villa is doing to us is what we did to so many other teams in our winning streak.Stop spelling like a 9 year old.
Goes missing when he's needed the most. We are desperate for someone to link the play up and he's nowhere to be seen.I thought we signed a world class player in Mata. How wrong you could be.
