    I think you're drawing conclusions that justify your point of view, even though there may be other explanations. I too wish we would play faster, but whether that's an Ange instruction or just not enough space forward, I do not know. I'm not at the stadium to see the entire pitch all the time.

    Yes, if you have actually controlled the game, created more than them, and didn't get the rub of the green by millimeters. And if one of their goals should have been pulled back and a pen awarded to you on the other end.

    I do agree with the general principle. But I also believe that there is a higher reward when breaking a press that is putting us in that position, because then you are catching the opposition completely off guard. At this stage of the development there are times that we will not get away with...

    Show me one passage of play where either Son or Kulu could have gotten a shot off? I was intently paying attention to this all game and I didn't see one chance for a long shot open up, other than Porro's. And even that one was from way way out.

    If you play VdV at left back he doesn't mop up the 2-3 breaks they could have had, but for him, because he'd be too far up the pitch.

    If you use the Moneyball example, we have not only replaced him in the averages, we have exceeded what he contributed in the averages. We are averaging a little over 2 goals per game. The 16/17 season aside, the last time we did that was 60 years ago. The problem is not replacing Kane. The...

    The don't leach off us. That's what the Glazers do. Not a single penny goes to ENIC. It all get reinvested in the club. The only time they will see money from the club is when they sell it. And Levy is no longer running the football side of things. I get it you're upset with the defeat...

    Villa were lucky to beat them. We were unlucky to lose to them. Let's have some perspective and not just judge on the final score.

    Our defending from open play was not as bad as some people think. We limited them to just 0.51 xG from open play and the only big chance they had was the Saka shot that Vic saved. Overall, excluding our penalty, we had 1.63 - 1.02 xG and 15 shots to their 9. Even in the first half where...

    We do. They built up our finances so we can build a project without being beholden to CL qualification. If Arse could do it with lesser finances than us and no CL for 6 years, I'm pretty sure we can.

    And for the only open play goal they scored, it should have been a pen on Deki on the other end.

    The attitude was fine. The set piece defending was the problem. That has nothing to do with attitude.

    It wasn't as bad as the score would suggest. But our defending on set pieces needs to get better.

    Not bad. On another day Cuti gets a hat trick and we win. Fine margins. Looking good for the future.
