Ok, but Villa couldn't and didn't. So again- why all the moaning about Song attacking?

Thank you for some proper perspective!!!asajoseph said:Can someone Tell me where Aston Villa's big threat down the middle came from?
I didnt really notice it, but given the continuos whinging about Song going forward, I can only assume it must have been there...
You're referring to today's game?!?AshburtonGhost said:Villa created quite a few chances as a result of our inability to press/close down as a unit. We do it one man at a time and when it fails it leaves yawning gaps to be exploited. Needs to be sorted out big time.

He isn´t very good at it, and it doesn´t really help our team quite as much as if he would just curb his offensive enthusiasm and put 100 % focus on protecting our back 5?

Tony Montana said:Yeah but a similar team drew to Utd.
The alarm bells have been ringing since the start of the season.
Humble Rex said:Song has scored a few goals and he has the odd assist. No doubt about it. Scoring goals isn´t where we suck though is it?
We have played 15 games in the league so far and we have conceded 17 goals. We seem to be on our way to concede in the 40+ category yet again. Maybe, just maybe it would be more helpful in the long run to us as a team if the CM with the best defensive abilities in our entire squad focused on protecting the back 5? I am not saying that this is the only reason why we concede too much, but in general our back 5 is too exposed IMO.
