No one in their right mind is disputing that Villa will ever be Manchester United. No one.
But he still doesn’t get it. The difference is what Keane says…. One club is set up for Emery to be successful, one would take a lot of work and change to for that to be the case.
Carra 🤦♂️ “Shut the fuck up Villa fans, Aston Villa will never be Manchester United” #AVFC
After Fulham on Saturday, #avfc go to the Nou Camp and Old Trafford before the international break.
We’ve then got 18 games in 2 months & 10 days until the end of Jan (the bulk of the season). Basically play midweek / weekend every week.
Got to be real about where we’re at.
Jan:
Sat 2nd: Bournemouth A
Wed 6th: Everton A
Sat 9th: FA Cup 3rd Round
Sat 16th: Man U H
Tue 19th: Dortmund H
Sat 23rd: Fulham A
Wed 27th: Slavia Prague A
Sat 30th: Ipswich H
Next time we go to Bournemouth on the 2nd Jan, we’ll have a great idea of what kind of season this is going to be.
For now, let’s just move on. #avfc
Never like losing (obviously), and it’s bad news for the players who are going to struggle for minutes now this season.
But a lot of changes against a good team in good form and this is always most likely what you get.
I don’t like it. But I understand it. #avfc
Basic errors (especially for the second goal which killed the game) are really disappointing.
But onwards. Three massive games this week. A few who needed mins (Goretzka, THB, Madjo, Garnacho) have got them.
Let’s make sure we’re not even thinking about this in a week. #avfc
Not only the back 4 either. Shape in front of them has to offer them better options.
Been a really poor 2nd half. #avfc
Trying to play out from the back tonight has been an accident waiting to happen from minute 1.
Have to be so good to do it under pressure, and we just aren’t at that level tonight. #avfc

Villa been ‘OK’. Bournemouth full of energy and quality despite the changes.
Obviously not a priority for Unai.
Bogarde not a natural full back, and Buendia struggling centrally (much better off the left).
Need to improve, but something here if we do. #avfc
Seeing as everyone is talking about Dowman. Wasn’t a great tackle and I do think those kind of tackles are becoming a bit of a problem.
Red for Dowman was a bit harsh. Was petulant but not dangerous.
But tired of hearing ‘he’s 16’. Rubbish. Don’t pick him then!

Something that blows my mind: If you somehow hear the offbeat as the “one,” in place of the downbeat, it is almost impossible to get your brain back on the right track

Article and class coming on Unai Emery and his tactics against Man City at the weekend.
Strong principles with fine tactical details.
Cash can prepare to jump onto Doku as McGinn covers the half-space pass. This also allows Alysson to remain high.
Releasing this today...
