Aston Villa - Nottingham Forest

[Fumanchew]

That’s that then. We some how beat city when most thought we wouldn’t so let’s just try and not get any more yellow cards or injuries

[Floridared]

Just feels like one of those days im afraid...

[RyanR]

They’re a good side and we’ve got lots of injuries. Let’s just keep it respectable

[DeesideRed]

Murillo said in interviews likes being middle of a 3. Nuno has this wrong here. Milenkovic right and Morato left like Normal. It's been messy back there. No striker doesn't help

[Plymouth red]

Aye. Not a great start. Feel this could go similar to Bournemouth.

Feel it is a case of damage limitation already. Hopefully, villa will go easy with an eye on champions league

[Paplane]

I just hope we can keep this respectable. We don't need a 5 or 6 nil defeat at this stage of the season.

[DR Forest]

Villa look like they think it’s job done and are saving themselves for psg.
They might be right, but still hoping we can steal a couple of late ones while they slumber

[Floridared]

Flat, tired performance so far and understandable. No focus up front and no attacking threat. One or two attackers in their box occasionally against 5/6 defenders. Take the hit, recover, regroup go again next week with renewed energy and maybe reinvigorated Wood back? Any more R words please?

[Paplane]

They look like a team lost. No cohesion at the back, the lack of a striker means there's no out ball. It's really poor.

thing sinister about elanga going off at half time! Really hope it's just a case of putting Jota as a focal point

[Trailer Park Tom]

You'd imagine Elanga has picked up a knock as well now.

My guess is precautionary
