Should be 2-1

That can’t be a real stat.  We’ve not conceded from a corner all season!

Cole has been a shadow of himself these past few games

Poch tactics

/s

we should have had 10 goals by now

I think the team gave up on getting a goal. It's been very tame so far

We get a lead and we go off the boil. Same story all the time. 

To be fair Villa is a top team with a great coach. I wouldn't think they would just roll over 

You can sense that tide of this game is changing...need to get a third before they get one...and they will get at least one.

I’m slightly worried.

Yeah he has been, I wonder if he needs some time off.

Me too, not sure if its mental or due to tactics.

I think he just has not had the room he had since the start of the season, always 2 players close by him these days, when he does find space he's quickly closed down.   Sitting him down for  a game or two wouldn't hurt and bring Felix in for a few games...might see it over Xmas.

I wouldn't. He's probably the only player who can create something out of nothing/nowhere.

Why does it feel like we concede every corner!! Being a fan is an anxious job!

He is only playing 1 game a week though. 

Cucurella and Caciedo head and shoulders the MOTM contenders.

Cucurella's done everything right today.

Think so too. The league is adjusting to him and he doesn't get much of freedom to play his magical passes

Yet we are still up by 2 with 10 mins to go.

Cucurella has been superb

Maresca has him working his bo**ocks off. He could do with being given a break on the defensive duties but he's not going to get that.

2024 is Cucurella's year
