Thank you!
Hutton substituted
Bruce has seen enough of Murphy getting the better of Hutton and has now replaced him with Bree.
Villa simply can’t afford to let the visitors expose them so often so the change was needed.
Thank you!
3-1 (Hourihane, 67)
Villa regain their two-goal advantage as Hourihane lets rip from outside the area, the ball loops off Reed and over Gunn into the net.
Hourihane 3 in 2 games. Hot right now.
3-2 to make the last 10 minutes nervy.
Hat-trick for Hourihane!
Hourihane slams in his third from outside the area.
That’s a hat-trick for the Irishman who collects the ball and holds three fingers up to the sky.
Fully deserved.
Nerves over. Was wondering who we should bring on for final sub when I saw that we'd scored
Good win. Not enough to convince me Bruce is the right man for the job. He signed Hourihane so that goes in his favour and his ass was saved by the Irishman.
Davis sounds like he's strong and maybe he can step in until Kodjia is fit.
I'm over the moon. This should instal a bit of confidence and hopefully momentum. Well done Lads and it looks like we found ourselves a striker. It sounds like he bullied two strong defenders. Hopefully Green and Hourihane can push on now. Elmo has defiantly improved us.
Hello all it's been a while since I last posted but as usual I've kept up with all your banter
I hope you all enjoyed yesterday's confidence boosting win & yes there were some minuses but that's football but I digress let's talk about the boy
Keinan Davies!
After yesterday's match I was thinking when was the last time I'd seen a C/Forward's display of that kind the way he unselfishly led the line bringing others into play,winning balls he had no right to,standing up for himself against 2 tough C/Backs
Showing an awareness of people around him & an eye for goal which this display deserved
This kid also has talent to go with these attributes,I think Bruce may have stumbled on a player / system that includes this boy
Gabby take note!
On that display the player I remember of a similar ilk to him was Keith Leonard in the late 1970's for those of you old enough to remember him & see him play what do you think?
Apologies to the younger guys on here who never saw him play
Onwards & Upwards
