Aston Villa v Leeds Utd Match Thread - Struijk starts in defensive midfield

[Velotrax]

Cash goes through Harrison, no FK....He's having to get dirty to cope with Jack

The refs let them get away with many fouls, and seams everytime we touch them they get one

[Velotrax]

Nice dive by Greaslish, he should be carded

Just thinking exactly the same

[YorkshireSquare]

Another chance wasted, should we be leading here?

[The Subhuman]

Never a pen, I'd never give Grealish a pen as he hit's the ground if the wind catches him wrong. Top quality player with disgusting habits .

[The Subhuman]

Very very very poor from Bamford, or maybe better put that's the Paddy we know

[White Riot]

Bamford misses the target again, where have we heard that before?

[HarryofOz]

Superb first half performance. Absolutely delighted with our display.

[CHAPELALLMAN]

Bamford misses the target again, where have we heard that before?

Many many many times.

Why the hell did we sell Roofe ?

[Fridge]

Always uneasy when it’s a 0-0 at half time

[White Riot]

Good first half, but again we fail to take our chances

[mothbanquet]

Good game this.

[John in Louisiana]

Both sides look very dangerous on the attack.

Harrison has been brilliant.

[The Subhuman]

Better team first half playing the better football. Villa relying on getting FK's..

Alioski and Harrison our best players with latter laying it on a plate for Paddy a couple of times, Shack looks good on the ball, Rodrigo does something lovely then does something poorly...Klich coming into it a bit more and great tackle to stop a top shooting chance after a poorish start for him. Ayling also having a goodun though we're missing his runs ...

I can see Costa coming off and maybe Paddy second half

[BGwhite]

villan and hero was Ayling

You can just see the difference in quality in these sides, this is falling into a similar pattern

Yep

Villa know they are in a game. Impressed by the boys so far. No disgrace and lots of joy down the left.

Comfortably the better side playing the better football.

Villa's only moments have come from our occasional sloppy play.

Should be 2 or 3 up.

Worried that we have seen this all before, better side, should be ahead, end up losing.

[Fridge]

Should be 2 or 3 up.

That’s what worries me cjay. Not taking our chances has always been our issue under Bielsa

[rab_rant]

Bielsa can do it

Alioski played well first half despite all the naysayers

Bamford could have hit the target a couple of times

Strujik was playing well apart from those couple of tackles that forced the switch

Shackleton looked lively

Like Klich in that DMC role

Harrison fantastic down the left

We started really well. Great tempo. But ran a little ragged towards the end, with a few wayward or short passes
