We asked for your thoughts after Saturday’s Premier League game between Aston Villa and Wolves.
Here are some of your comments:
Villa fans
Rudgey: Unai Emery showed his genius again! For 60 minutes, Wolves had the measure of us but our substitutes and tactical tweaks turned the game. Seeing Gary O’Neil’s face at full-time as he shook hands with Emery said it all – when the game changed, he couldn’t keep up. We can now get results even when we’re not at our best. Exciting times!
Simon: Surely Jhon Duran deserves to start soon? Ollie Watkins scored but he looks off his game after the Euros. We huffed and puffed in the first half against a Wolves team with no natural finisher, but it shows how deep the Villans can dig to pull it out of the bag! It says a lot about the coach and his well assembled squad.
Leona: Villa showed the mentality required to overcome Wolves after giving away a goal due to repeatedly bad defending. Ross Barkley played a blinder and his input helped turn the result around. Surely Duran has to start the next game? I still feel Villa are better playing in a 4-4-2.
Thomas: Another great win for Villa. A poor first-half performance but we came alive in the second half and Duran scored again! We move on to Wycombe on Tuesday in the Carabao Cup and hope to get through to the fourth round.
Wolves fans
Alan: We better hope that there are three worse teams than us because at the moment, relegation beckons. Too early to panic after a hard run of fixtures? The excuse brigade is still failing to accept the facts. Is it too soon to start the Gary O’Neil out discussion?
Mark: Really frustratingly disappointing once again. We had a dominant first half, an awful second half and we were an absolute mess defensively. I’m afraid we are in serious trouble. If the mindset of the manager and his players is that the fixtures will eventually get easier, they are sadly mistaken. There are no easy games in the Premier League. The Championship beckons.
Glyn: Great first-half display but again no Plan B for the second half. We knew that Villa would change things, but we didn’t and couldn’t react as we don’t have the quality of game-changing players that our opposition have. There is no plan B and I’m getting worried.
Norman: We are having a bad run at the moment, but I see them getting out of this bad run. I have all the confidence in our manager. In the owners? That is a different question and I’m not going to go there. It is the team that means more to me than the owners. I have supported them for over 64 years and I still find when we lose most upsetting.
