Villa were very good and punished us but we were really poor. Mitoma and Estupinan looked like they werent bothered in the first half.
I wonder if Lamptey should have a few games at left back and we give Pervis a rest.
Webster had a nightmare, but Dunk was also really off it today.
Ferguson...
Lamptey already looks an improvement on Pervis. Good to have him back.
Pedro also looking an improvement on Ferguson.
Ref right there for once re time wasting.
Yes, Hinshelwood is playing in a very advanced role and we have no protection in front of the back four which Caicedo gave us last season.
Mitoma and March have been very poor. Let’s get them both on and at least put a performance in for the second half.
Villa have been very good though.
Yes, this is a game where work rate will be important, especially in the first half when Villa will start quick.
Take him off after 60 minutes and get Dahoud on then when the game will have opened up a bit and Villa start to tire.
I wonder whether he’ll be given a specific job, like tracking...
