Yeah, might be his brother if you want to spoil my joke.
Champions League 24/25 | Matchday 5: November 26-27
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
17:5 shots, 1,41:0,4 xG for us but can't say it's undeserved for Villa, they have been good, credit where it's due
What a performance and what a difference a world class keeper makes for villa
Kompany has to learn that 70% ball position and 2-3 times more shots are sometimes not enough. Each team has their weapons.
Aston survived because they did what they had to do.
He's been doing great for Benfica and they are doing comparisons between him and Grimaldo. Just find it odd how he didn't have a real chance at United considering the problems you have at the position
Ha! Pretty great keeper. Big game player.
A complete prick of a person though, which is a strong Argentinian trait.
Duran looking like one of the top young strikers in the world. Emery is building a scary team at Villa.
Leipzig with two glorious chances to score. Muppets.
Arsenal backup.. The only reason he played is because Leno got injured and he got a run of games.. did very well.. Got his move.
I was surprised Arsenal sold him. He looked way better than Leno.
So good they named him twice.
Can’t believe I’m jealous of Aston Villa
They have earned it of course. I'm probably not used to losing a 'group' game anymore
I struggle to understand anything this club does anymore!
The Grimaldo comparison is good. I actually watched a fair bit of Benfica when he was there and was a fan. I'm not surprised to see him excelling at Leverkusen.
glorious chances playing 11vs 10 for what 45mins?
Got to re-live what it means to win a CL game against a good opponent. Thanks, Villa.
Damn, how far behind are we from these teams 
Emery is a wizard, he just needs a second opportunity at a top club to show he belongs to the tier 1.
Sesko has a pretty big reputation, but he’s been utter gash every time I’ve been able to see him play.
How many chances do Leipzig need?

seee fk you Var
Not seen the match but hasn't he scored twice?
Good win by Benfica but Atletico was horrible. Simeone is a stone age manager like Mourinho.
Lille humiliated Madrid, and Benfica apparently did the same to Atletico.
They made the Madrid derby look exactly for what it was, a poor game between two teams that play poor football.

Maybe but I was watching Villa. Watched the last 7 minutes of the RB game and watched him fluff a couple of great chances.
I thought the same. He impressed me whenever he started for arsenal.
Totally unnecessary loss. Villa had no shot on goal in second half bar this wonder strike.
Martinez is a prick but good prick. Faking injury despite no player near him. 2 great saves at the end. Should have scored.

I think our new and untested starting lineup in attack did definitely not help us today. Musiala in the middle was a definite improvement, might have done something with more time and with attacking team mates not already getting desperate.
they can chupa a big big lollo tonight.
Gnabry lost Bayern that tie by being a selfish prick.
Imagine United beating Bayern.
Literally made me burst out laughing.
We need to do something about this absolute state we are in.

Outside of the goal Aston Villa had one shot on target in that match, Neuer truly awful positioning the difference from 0-0 and 1-0 defeat.

It's just one game. If United can beat City, they can beat Bayern too.
One day, maybe.
Salah becomes the highest scoring African player in CL history I believe with that goal. Ok performance, not always controlled. Bologna were better than their current Serie A position suggests.
I think we'll see a couple of bad results when we play Chelsea, Arsenal, Madrid etc. I don't think we're as good as our current form suggests.

He was and he didn't play. Now he's the #1 GK at a PL team playing in the Champions League and the #1 GK for the reigning World Champions. Seems he made a great choice to join them in hindsight.
Yep, think this is fair. It was an awful game.
Which would be logical. It's good on you guys to be winning and avoiding any banana skins, but your run of games could hardly have been kinder.
Let's hope so!
Light years unfortunately.Damn, how far behind are we from these teams
That was seriously impressive by Benfica, especially considering how defensive Atletico are, and their (usually) fantastic shape. When was the last time Atletico conceded 4? Impressive.
