Villa Verdict

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

Delighted with a win that I didn't expect, even though I missed the first half through bad timekeeping. Hanging on a bit in the second half, but Villa didn't look like scoring until the peno which was soft but probably correct. Made for a nervy finish. but the good guys held on.
Not the first time that Sa has rushed out and collided with an opposition player this season. Needs to curb this aspect of his game as it is costing us, even if some fans don't see it that way.
Double over Villa woohoo!

The peno was not correct. It's an absolute ****ing joke. Up there with Raúl's sending off v Leeds

 

[ewarwoowar]

You appear to have left out the whole who wins the ball, which is fairly important. Raul's wasn't a yellow because he was pulling out but Sa didn't get the ball and was across Watkins path who did get the ball. Was a pen imo

will it be given for us at Anfield if Livarpool are 1-0 up? mmm....let me think

Villa fans love Wolves so much they don't wanna go back.

Not so good for those of us on the train behind! Nearly a two hour delay so far

That's your opinion. My opinion is that it was a peno, albeit soft. Furthermore, Michael Owen also thought it a peno. He has no allegiance to either club, unlike you and I, so his opinion carries some weight imo.
Football is a game of opinions and we all see things differently.

Do you sit in NU2? I have 4 idiots sat behind me who are Donk haters

Donck was excellent today other than that total screw up when he was put through. Not enough there creatively but we know that. Defensively crucial though.

No my friend, BWU. I don't rate him and never have. Today was par for his course. His instinct is always to play safe, never take a risk. Give me Cundle.

Walked up the cut from S&D to Galton Bridge about 20 minutes
Oh and SOTV

 

[WWFC4EVA]

Donck brilliant? FFS. Only passed sideways or backwards.

I'm sorry mate but I also thought he was immense today. I guess we all see things differently. I also thought Marcal played well today too, yet somebody I travelled back home with thought he was poor.

 

[steve vena]

Great win. Should have thrashed them though and thrashed dirty Leeds too.

Never a penalty.....

Ratings & Reactions: Wolves v Villa

To be fair, most of their fans come across as decent. One of them pointed out to something that I also noticed. We had a lot of space, and our players being so good technically, excel in such situations. On the other hand we were very aggressive and never gave them time when they were on the ball.

I have enjoyed this afternoon and to be fair - since the debacle vs Palace we have put in 4 good performances, if we forget about the 2nd half against Leeds. I dare to say our football has looked increasingly like in the first three games in the season. Credit to Bruno and the lads!

I too thought it was a pen. Sa, like Jimenez v Leeds gave the ref a decision to make. If a GK clatters a CF in the penalty area 9times out of 10 it will be a penalty. If Martinez had done than on Silva in the 85th minute we would all have been screaming for the penalty. The Mix is full of posters who think the whole world and his dog has an agenda against Wolves.

 

[Wednesbury Wolf]

Wasteful so wasteful, we played so well but if Villa had got a late draw it would have been our own fault. We could easily have had 6.

 

[JOSWolf]

Donck brilliant? FFS. Only passed sideways or backwards.

I thought he played really well to be fair but all about opinions.

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

I don’t think I dislike any player more than mginn

All about goals and he missed a sitter

Well if Michael "Charisma" Owen says so ...

FFS, please rewatch and rethink. Michael Owen lol.

 

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

Donk had a good game.

 

[Fifty Niner]

Would of been a comfortable unstressful win if it hadn't been for the referee.
Unbelievable but yet believable

Good win and would’ve been even more comfortable if we’d taken our chances.

 

[JOSWolf]

Michael Owen one of the worst and most clueless pundits out there. Oh and who manages vile? One of his mates.

 

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

Spot on. We will come to regret the money we wasted on Hwang.

We've spent a very modest amount on a half decent player. I doubt we'll regret it, seems like decent business to me.

Agreed. Reading their forum, a lot of Villa fans are complimentary about our performance today, while being critical of their own players.

 

[Starsky]

Gerrard won't last 12 months.

Just a more fashionable Steve Bruce. Tactically inept.

 

[ewarwoowar]

Yes, VAR looks at all peno decisions.

depending on the team depends how close they look

Clatters?

You can get a good idea of the "clattering" here, around 5.48

 

[Hoganstolemywife]

Agreed. Zola-esque.

 

[OLDGOLD]

I know it's slightly controversial, but I don't think Marcal has ever let us down. Yes, he doesn't have the flair of RAN when he attacks, but he's better defensively and has the football nous that hopefully RAN will learn. A short-term buy that has paid off for us imo.

Marcals best skill is kicking a ball off an opponent to win a throw in. Now I've told you, you won't be able to unsee it!

 

[ewarwoowar]

Accordingly to a Villa fan on their foum, Wolves are the new Burnley. Horrible to watch, dirty and time wasters.

The onlyly thing he/she didn't mention was that Wolves have done the double over Aston Villa this season...

my god the words pot,kettle and black come to mind.this is the team that was gifted a goal by dirty leeds in their promotion season but would not reciprocate when Sheffield United had a goal clearly over the line not count because the goal line technology threw a seven!!! get out of that one Perry

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Yep. Watkins has a heavy touch, then runs into Sa as the ball rolls down Staveley Rd.

Really poor decision, if anything Watkins crashed into Sa

 

[Ned Stark]

Marcals best skill is kicking a ball off an opponent to win a throw in. Now I've told you, you won't be able to unsee it!

Which is why he plays for Wolves and you don’t

 

[OLDGOLD]

I don’t think I dislike any player more than mginn

Mings?

 

[KnowNuttin]

Hwang should have killed the game off regardless. That's his role at the club. Come on and add some vital goals, hold things up, not shoot a clear chance past the post and lose the ball all the while. He looks another Cutrone so far.

Moutinho and Silva the standouts today, though none of the starting XI had a bad match.

Harsh... I thought he put himself about and showed some good touches. Yes, he's missed a presentable chance, but show me a striker that doesn't do that.

 

[OLDGOLD]

Which is why he plays for Wolves and you don’t

I didn't say it was a bad thing. When he is in a tight corner he nearly always manages it.

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Nice, mature response.

But fair, (to be fair)

 

[NewarkWolf]

I thought he played really well to be fair but all about opinions.

Well he also has the pen view incorrect so wouldn't take his view on Donk too seriously to be honest

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Michael Owens opinion

Michael Owen is one of the daftest tools on tele.

 

[Redrockwanderer]

Great win!! Happy Saturday night!! Interestingly Dendoncker is now playing well and in form from a run of games… maybe he’s a form type player, that needs a run of games to show what he’s about! Great to see him playing well, such a quality player

 

[Brockmoorwolf]

Spot on. We will come to regret the money we wasted on Hwang.

As soon as he learns a bit more Portuguese he will come good.

 

[WV4 Wolves]

Couldn't be happier tonight OK not our best performance... but as a lad at school in the 90s Villa we're always perceived as the team. Wolves were belittled. Well .....you can have your Steven Gerrard your Coutinho and whoever else you've massively over paid for. You can pretend it doesn't hurt but for 85 mins we schooled you and I'm not shy in saying that doing the double over villa feels fantastic...bring on the run in....MIND THE GAP..
