This is what Ange has done against teams sitting deep in their final third.
He's removed the #8 (or the double-pivot) for a winger and dropped Kulusevski to MF -- with Johnson coming on @ RW.

Worst thread on the forum during a game day.
There’s a handful that are fun to watch a game with, most just whinge
I was thinking the same. Romero has had chances to play a long ball when Sarr, Maddison and Son have made runs but he looks them off and passes it short.
Maybe, but they, like every other team at the moment, know that the best way to beat us is to wait for a mistake giving them a counter attack or a set piece. We're not offering any threat with the ball, why would they mix it up?
Pretty much
Just a little but slow in our reactions and output.
Agree b
His time may come. Johnson been fine though.
Started bright first 15 mins, then same old same old!
Our wingers never attacking, always holding up the play passing sideways or backwards.
Please Ange break this inverted-winger-vodoo that's been cast upon every PL manager!!!
Play left-footed wingers on the left and right-footed wingers on the right, at least try it for once!!!
3 points is a must today, or top 4 will probably be gone!
Get Werner on!

Its the smart way to play from Vampire, we struggle against a low block and they played mid week - if they get 3 points the fans wont care about the boring setup!
We just need to come out the traps fast again , early goal and keep the pressure on , Think we will win this with a couple of tweaks!
We've lost 2 league games in our last 11.
You'd think the other 9 teams would have done that if it was that easy to beat us.
That’s what I saw from the first minute. The crazy thing is he’s very capable of playing it.
You stopped watching so decided it was really important for everyone to know so came in the match thread to announce it.
Gotcha
Go to the gym mate. You’re having a mare on the forum
By playing 3 CBs, Emery has effectively blocked the channels either side of a normal CB pairing that our forward runs would exploit. Pau Torres & the snail Lenglet would be horribly exposed in a two.
With Luiz & McGinn, and the WBs also playing deep, Villa have effectively parked an ugly claret & blue bus at home.
We need some high turnovers or a spark of genius from one of our midfielders to thread a pass.
We're the team trying to play football, so hopefully we'll be rewarded.

we can@t change the wingers now so the Manager & coaches need to change something else
Villa Park is beautiful.
Why do you come in here just to whinge about other people whinging though?
It’s just as boring
You stopped watching the game but post in here. What’s the point of that?
