Oh how I would love to win 1-0, totally undeservedly due to a VAR travesty and a triple deflection goal.
I don't read Emi in the same way as you, Duncan. I'm not saying I'm right - I'm talking about a 'feel', an 'instinct' that I get when I see him interviewed. I see Emi as very ambitious and hard-working, but not terribly self-confident. I think one reason he did so well at Norwich was the adulation he got there, not just from us but from neutral observers calling him a Champions League player in the Championship and so on. That's not there at Villa. Incidentally, I read Cantwell in a totally opposite way - a player who thinks the sun shines out of his own arse. A player who is only interested in himself, not the team. But, as I say, these reactions are just instinct, which means nothing because someone else's instinct might say exactly the opposite.
If we carry on like this , we could quite easily be the worst side in the Premier league ever . Not criticising Farke or the players we just look second best in every position, the rare occasion we have the ball in an attacking position Pukki screws up a simple pass to put Sargent in 3 passes later they score
