Confirmed Spurs XI vs The Villa

By The Boy -

Aston Villa fought their way back into the top flight, but have failed to convince – it is looking extremely likely that it will be a close call in the final furlongs of the 2019/20 season, to see if they remain in the division. Villa have managed just 7 Premier League wins from 25 played so far.

The form book is on Tottenham’s side, we’re unbeaten in their last 22 Premier League away games against promoted sides (W18 D4) since a 0-1 loss at QPR in April 2012. However, Villa Park isn’t a happy hunting ground for our latest gaffer. Of away grounds he’s visited at least five times in the Premier League, only at St James’ Park (0/7) has Spurs boss José Mourinho won fewer games than he has in Aston (1/6).

That said, in all competitions, Spurs have won 10 of their last 11 meetings with Aston Villa and Villa are winless in their last eight Premier League home games against Spurs (D2 L6), losing each of the last four in a row.

Why does Dier keep getting starts? Is it a Levy shop window directive?

I agree here, when he runs forward with the ball the are usually no options where Kane would be.

That’s the worry, nicking points from the bottom teams. Some real games to test where we’re at coming up. Bergwijn, Lo C and Gedson all def add class to the squad which has helped.

Don’t agree re Dele, need to get Kane back so he can play more in the box. Dier and Aurier must go simply as damage limitation.

During an interview with the Spurs’ media team, Jose Mourinho interrupted by saying, “Are you speaking about the goals he scored or the goals he missed?”

Jose interrupting Sonny’s interview, and I love the comment he makes. He let’s the player know in a nice way that he could have been much better.

This is nothing new. When was the last time you saw us take a game by the scruff of the neck and dictate the proceedings? Burnley was the last time I think you’ll find.

Dele,Dier,Aurier all need moving on.Mourinho will have a big decision to make in the summer.He will have had 6 months to assess this squad and will know the ones who need shifting.His problem however will be Levy.Asking silly prices for deadwood and not wanting to spend what is necessary.
Same old,same old.

Villa always give you a chance, we just didn’t take them until Son late on thankfully, its a worry chances are not being taken, and defensively we also need to be sharper, but we still won, so that shows this team has something to build on.

Dele looked angry to come off I think he should feel fortunate to get picked gedson looked good for his cameo and we have plenty of players that could pick up allis current role

No one up front is really on top form. Nearly all our shots were at the keeper as tends to be the case when players are shooting too carefully rather than instinctively. By the skin of our teeth, yet again. On this sort of form, I fear Leipzig. We look like the lowest quality of the last 16.

Go on the Some How Get Away With Its!

Our finishing overall was shocking but hey we don’t need another striker.I am liking Bergwijn he looks a player and will get better as he adjusts to the EPL, Ali needs a kick up the a*se so many one on ones with the keeper and he fails to convert any. Moura always keeps on going and although he is not scoring he is a handful, Aurier’s crossing was terrible today. He is defending better but now has lost his attacking threat. Jose looked subdued most of the game. LoCelso looks class and a perfect replacement for the Dane. I would like to have seen Ndombele get some minutes but perhaps he is being saved for the CL and Chelsea match. Valuable three points.

Cannot argue that our grit and determination has improved significantly since Mourinho took over. The defending on the other hand….Davies was rusty and Aurier a liability an sure we will be buying some defenders in the summer

He gets decent service but his touches let’s him down and can’t seem to hold up the ball, also doesn’t track back enough.

Maybe he knows he won’t get any service from a non-creative midfield.

To get 3 points, or a draw we will need another goal, cant see it ending 2-1 to Spurs. Villa pose more threat and are winning most of the 50 50’s.

I think his best position is LCB,he doesn’t have the pace for a full back in the modern game.

Relatively new manager, new tactics very different from the start of the season, new players, and a few not particularly good ones. We are, in spite of all that, winning.
