Well Perez hacked him down after he skipped past him
Think that was a foul to be honest mate....

All very neat and tidy until the final third where we really don’t know what to do with it

Fofana looks a class act.
Castagne doing well against the diver who is not tracking back so if we're clever, there is a free man every time we break. We haven't made them pay for this yet but we should,
On the other side, Barnes has Cash all day but, as usual, just doesn't seem to believe it enough. If only he had a bit more courage.
Villa are a lot better than they were last season but they have gaping holes in their side still. Their defensive passing is diabolical and we will get chances. Iheanacho having one of those 'almost' games. He needs a break of the ball.
The two obvious switches after an hour are Maddison for Praet and Under for Perez.

Impressed with Fofana. I think Nacho did well but faded as Villa grew into the game in that last 15-20. Perez out wide is a waste of time, if we never gonna play him as CF - get rid. Get Albright on on for Perez and Maddison on for Tielemans who has been very sloppy today.

Agree, crying out for Maddison to come on
watched the first 40minutes on a hooky stream. conclusions.
Fofana is makingly an insanely confident and all round debut at centre half.
Castagne, Praet, Barnes, Mendy and Nacho look dangerous
Perez and Tielemans might be the ones who need to give way in the second half if Under, Maddison or Slimani get a roll of the dice.

We have conceded first half goals in our last three matches. One of our centre backs in on his debut and can't speak English. The other is patched together with sellotape to play his fifth match in two weeks.
We're missing half our best line up. In that context, 0-0 at half time with us having the better chances is fine by me.
I think we'll be better second half and have options to change it. Villa have all their best players and all their best options on the pitch.
If we'd got our best players fully fit then maybe criticise that first half. But given what we're up against with fitness, that was a solid performance.
