Villa vs Forest

[JJH]

Kodjia makes his debut for Villa, no Adomah or Jedinak. Gardner and Westwood in midfield looks pretty week, and Cissokho (sp) back in for Amavi.

No Assombalonga or Bendtner for Forest, Vellios starts up top.

1-0 Villa.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Hmmm, I reckon this'll have goals in it. 4-2 Villa.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Our line-up:

Gollini
De Laet Chester Elphick Cissokho
Gardner Westwood
Grealish McCormack Ayew
Kodjia​

The strength in attack is ridiculous, Gestede is back too and is on the bench.

 

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Adomah and Kodjia has the potential to be an incredible link.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

I did it wrong, Adomah isn't in the squad, Grealish is on the left, no idea why I typed Adomah.

 

[Leo]

been watching snatches of this....seems quite dull for the neutral....

 

[JaseTheVillain]

It's dull for the supporter.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Pretty poor game, Forest look toothless but if they sneak in front it's going to be very uncomfortable for the Aston Villa players.

 

[Leo]

Tbh....there's more than a few shite games live on the box up here.....this one so far rates alongside them... Come on lads.....a bit of entertainment if you please.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

What a strike from Vellios, been out of the game until then. Big ask of character for Villa now, will they crumble again?

good goal was it ? Neighbour popped in there and I bloody missed it.....

 

[Leo]

1-1....wee McCormack equalises.....fine build up and well taken goal. This is better.

 

[Leo]

2-1.....Gestede....

 

[Blitzballer]

This Kodjia dude is the business

 

[Blitzballer]

what a c***

 

[Leo]

2-2.

And a joke of a second yellow. The lads gone and celebrated with the fans after putting it on a plate for Lansbury. Tough legislation.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Predictable. Shit. Uninspiring.

I agree.....but if they know it will result in a yellow then bottom line is they will have to curtail it.

#noenjoymentpermitted.

 

[Leo]

Far better 2nd half....for me as a neutral anyway....

Played quite well didn't he?

Villa deserved more than that, far too over elaborate in the final third though, Grealish, Ayew, Kodjia and McCormack were all having lots of touches on the ball, particularly first half.

Periera's (sp) red card was a joke, didn't even jump into the crowd. Sent off for celebrating a goal. Ridiculous rule.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Good result in the end for Forest, Villa a bit unlucky not to win being the better team but need to take their chances. Thought the ref was a bit of a jobsworth for sending off Pereira.

 

[villa loyal]

Well how did we not win that? Should of been 4 or 5 but yet again we shoot ourself in the foot. I'm still confident we will click sooner rather than later and when we do I think we will have a very good team. On to the next game. Some of our lot are in panic mode already.

 

[M Dogg]

That was superb.

Villa are gonna hammer some sides this year, we got lucky no doubt. Saying that, we defended like lions and our fans were superb. A really good season ahead here.

Fuck knows where we found this goalie from, looked like they got a taxi driver and gave him some gloves. Never heard of the bastard but stone me he made some genuinely top class saves

Very pleased with his performance. On another day could have bagged 2-3 tbh

 

[El Guapo]

I will be disappointed to only draw against Villa.

Villa looked like an average, run-of-the-mill Championship club against a substandard Forest side.

Our problem is for some reason we can't put the ball in the net enough. How forest came away with anything I don't know. We are creating plenty of chances and I still say we will make the play offs.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Sums it up really, how did we not win??

 

[villa loyal]

I'm staying positive. We are much better to watch this season and once the team clicks I can't see us not making atleast the play offs. Or am I just another deluded villa fan.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

Don't think we'll click in time and we'll finish just outside them. Think we'll win the league next season though.
