Well we've knackered the first team now so this ones not going to be good.

At least endo, Gomez.and chiesa are going to be really ready to go v Madrid eh?



Same team should start again

 

Did we see the 'Real Liverpool ' yesterday?

 

I hope not.

Villa were falling over themselves at the back and gifted us the opened.

I hope we can improve on that display, improve a lot on it.

We can press better. I found thst veneer where gakpo was central.and Szoboszlai over on the left interesting. Who called that?
Why is there no press on the left side really?

Once villa managed to get round the press we were all over the place still. We can improve on that.

Real will be a lot more of a threat. We will have to improve again.

 

FFS, issue praise when it's deserved... We pressed them into making those mistakes.

If you're going to criticise, focus on what happened when Villa broke by the press and we were wide open, every time.

 

I'm talking reality. Not criticising.

You totally ignored the rest of what I wrote.

We have to improve.does not.mean we didnt do anything right against villa.

We have headed into real madrid who are 7 points clear at the top of last liga.

I hope we have more to give as we will need to improve again to take them on.

That's reality.

You just read criticism cos.you wanted to read it.

We have to improve on that display again, and again to be where we need to be.

 

Of course I ignored the rest, far too long to read all of it....

 

Then you've no right nor business accusing me of anything do you?

 

I was joking about not reading it. Aka a long running joke on here...

My initial point stands, we pressed really well and forced them into making mistakes but claimed it was "Villa falling over themselves"

 

And my point is you've assumed me saying we need to improve from there is somehow critising the effort that was put in v villa.

You are dead wrong.

Villa are not a patch on real madrid this season. Thats reality. We will.need to build on that showing and then improve again to pay city after it.
