Aston Villa vs Arsenal 0-2 Highlights & All Goals || Premier League 2024/25

Aston Villa are an impressive team tough team they've they've come quite a long way I mean they've become a team if you go and get any points at Aston Villa you're shows how good of a team you are and watching that game my God David ryer DAV R pulled off some I don't know some Earthly saves there to keep the team in that could easily been a different result I actually think that game was kind ofad bance I don't you can't really say arsenal dominated or dominated I think we probably watch two teams that that easily I think probably can be in the top four this season coming back to that Arsenal match ver it was was ason Ville that was a tough match of course we weren expecting Arsenal to be beaten by ason Villa three times in a row uh looking back to what happened last seasonest Manchester Manchester United player saying this after the game after the why would she say this before the game of course it was a matter of Revenge for Arsenal because if they could have won their just one match against ARS Villa last season they had the Premier League title and going into this game I know it was a tense game for both teams really really top match a lot of worst chances from OE Watkins and by the time they did the substitution it was a bit too late Arenal really got put in the game and what a player leando that guy is very very clinical we have to give CR to De Martin was a bit off his dribbling skills was a bit low today but um the second half the last 20 minutes Arenal Arsenal really showed why they they really need the 90 that the 38 wins out of 38 so they can compete with Manchester City for the title because the way it seems this season the moment you let your pedal off the braks that's the moment you're gone and we've seen the kind of display Manchester city has done and um I'm hoping for a very competitive season because now considering the kind of SES the heavy dry has made and the the golden glob from last season so I don't see Arsenal conceding any cheap goals we saw um Gabriel the first half he was able to give the ball cheaply away but the way salba was able to recover so on one end what impresses me about Arsenal is the way they are able to defend and the way one Defender is able to come up and cover the mistake of the other and I don't see unless um something happens they they going for the title No Arsenal going to be they're going to be a tough team for anyone like let alone forget beating just to even get point from Arsenal this season is going to be tough for the anyone in the Premier League that defense is is tough and then you see how how that defense really look different with timber in there as well now you know that that that showed up that left back position that with that pace that you had and everything he's a proper Defender and I think the Arsenal will be missing that position because now Arsenal looking solid both right and left back but but also ason Villa themselves I mean Aston Villa they had their chances they played well they also compact uh Emory's got these guys ticking and I think like when you look at the the first game that they had this season and then you know there's no shame losing to Arsenal or one of the big boys but I also think that you know this season is going to be really tight you know OE Watkins can't be missing things like that as well as well as as good as the saves Rya made I mean like that header he could have put it anywhere in other any of the corners that that could have gone in you know and the other one early one where he just missed that that sitter waiting for him oh maybe maybe he's still a bit emotionally dented from the European Championship that just came back asleep surprised I'm still surprised how he still has Aston Villa considering the kind of performance he pulled off last season I was expecting one of these big boys to send him yeah the money you know how much he's going to cost he's not going to be cheap he's going to be 100 million like know that's that's a lot of money to to to risk on a striker you know what I mean so you have you have to be certain he has to be like he does this again this season like I think yeah that then gon gonna Pro seem to be more confident yeah yeah he has to prove his value this season because after after this season if he does the same I think he's going to prove that he's worth the money that there they've been speculating is it should be costing and at the same time really that header because I think it's all about mentality because I think he knew R was down it was just a matter of aiming any the post so about the me mentality but uh we've always known R to be a very to have Ninja saves I call it Ninja saes because remember even the last time when we playing against Tottenham last season there save he made that no one was expecting yeah see that's very impressive because U to begin with with the match actually I believe there's been the argument of from Pep goola who is the best manager between in the Premier League people have been saying uni people saying ateta then people saying is better because he beat ateta twice then people say ateta is better because he finished on top of Aston Villa so I think from the managers both from the managers it was it was completely a mental game The Players themselves was completely mental game it was all about being concentrating in the game because when you see o Watkins missing such a chance in the in the first half that means that means a lot what is going through your head because you just have to have complete composure to score such goals which we know world class Strikers do have because at such a game that is tight that is almost like that is almost a derby because it's arrival because these guys are coming to play as much as they want to win the game in the back of their mind they're like this team yes it we know it's not better than us but it is better than us because they took six points from us you see not about the name Aston Villa it's about the way they playing right now so it was it was quite a tough one and it's it was quite mental but again again again Trad he stepped up I mentioned this about Martin Le last time we discussed about his uh his input in the game I said if he's not going to step up we M we know the kind of quality player Martinelli is and I don't I don't I don't I don't get where at times he the game becomes a deadlock for him you see because I know the game was different it was difficult but you can see his input in the game was not as much as Saka you see Saka he's he's a world class player we know he's good he was involved in in the in the in the goals the way when one one when on the first one before the deflection before Trad and the second one when he gave party the the I we call it in in Kenya miners miners in FIFA when you bring angle of 45 but isn't that a bit to do with odard as well I mean odard odard is many be the attacking midfielder but he's always like he's always hanging around sacka he plays on that side a lot you don't you don't see that one two with Martinelli all the time you know is kind of like he he's either getting a long B given to him to go and Chase or he either like either party is try to do some Wonder but he does there's no small interchanges or like you know returning it and then you make the run from behind like Saka has that support on that side a lot more fromard I think I think odard needs to be stepping up more on that side as well to try and like open the game up I think it's because of I think it's because of his fo left exactly think that is what takes him all the time to that side because at times yeah it's true Mai is normally left out but and that is why I think he's normally he's always good in the long balls running to them uh again today we won the game but I still have my questions over over Kai havs because uh all all the time he's on the ball I'm always like 5050 is he is he going to contain it is he going to make a a silly foul you see is he is he going to make counter attack because if there's one play that he made that was impressive in the whole game is during the last minutes when he he gave he gave an outer foot towards Martin odard that is before TR tried the screamer but it went through the wall of Aston Villa he's he's good because actually it could have been a three three-nil goal because we uh yeah odard had an open chance to really put that left foot to use but I think he wanted to give knowing that Martinez is the one who's on goal he wanted to give him his best his best short because we know Martin Martinez is a short stopper you don't just give him baby baby baby shots always I always say Martin ny's quality always comes through you see it very clearly when Arsenal play the big boys you know and when you play City when you play Liverpool those games where odard and Saka and emo get shut down you know you don't really see much of them and then it's just that's when Martin turns up and that's why it's that's that's when the game becomes very different because then it becomes more individual it's kind of okay let's give him the ball and because when you play the bigger teams they play more higher line because they they closing Midfield down and that's where I think Martinelli really comes to the four and and Trad will never be able to do anything Trad is he's he's a clinical finisher but Trad is not gonna he's not he's not going to run behind a defense he's not going to if you play Trad a lot of the times he he comes in more inwards he doesn't provide that width and the problem is when you play a team like Aston Villa they got they got deadly Wingers so you would have given Bailey and that right back they would have just you know kept running behind drad because they know he doesn't have that pace to come back and Martinelli has that pace to come back and help because that's the other part you're not noticing Martinelli is that he's doubling up on on Bailey you know with Timber coming back Martinelli has that role so I think it kind of misses you miss out on that because even sacka doesn't have that quality of Martinelli you've seen how many times Martinelli runs backs he run actually defensively martinell is impressive completely
