This forum is going to be unbearable this season. Even more so than normal. And I've only jumped into the thread in the last 10 minutes. 

I don't usually come on here during a match and I'm certainly glad about that!

We have had more possession, more chances, more shots, and double free the kicks won, against a champions league team and yet we are shit and it’s all Coopers fault? 

Villa scored before the half hour so they didn't have to push for a goal anymore. They could let us have the possession because we're playing Ndidi as a 10 so every attacking move breaks down

Yeah but the point would be you're then holding on to a lead for a period at the end not chasing with some actual intent 

Take the point, I am just not sure I trust our team to hold on to a lead anymore than I do to chase a game  lol

you can't be so stupid as to not see that cooper's lineups are putting us in a worse position than if he just played our best players from the start

Yeah it is. Starting the game with zero creativity lost us the game.

 

Surely you can see that?

I don’t have a problem with starting defensively against teams that are on paper miles ahead of us, even at home. Providing we stay in the game and have a go in the last half an hour. Annoyingly here their second goal came at an awful time.

You've got no way of knowing that.  We could be 3-0 if we started with a more attacking line.

Yh I’m not a fan of Ndidi there, I get it off the ball, but if they’re gonna let us have it he’s more of a hindrance than help

We aren’t even benefitting from having the extra defensive player as he’s playing in an advanced role and expected to make something happen.
