That game was calling for athletes to pressure them and attack their tired defense and midfield. It's the first time since he took over (minus his first or second game) that Lorenzo left me completely scratching my head
He learned it from Pekerman. But as I said the day after the Final at least Lorenzo did not start three defensive midfielders in an important match.
hope he doesn’t do these puss moves when it matters the Brazil WC 14 game and England wc18 games he planted them so badly. England the changes worked but he did them way way way way too late
Oli Watkins injury alert: https://www.threads.net/@johntownle...QGz3V7NGD7Ml9AThMS9k2tJFwWttiq7bkkQtayo6I3yeQ Looks like Villa might need to start JJD sooner than later depending on how long Ollie is out... English FA sent him home from call up with an injury.
Monchi on Jhon Duran: "If there is a club that really thinks Duran can become one of the top strikers in the world - then that one club is Aston Villa and that one manager is Unai Emery. There are no fewer than 40 clubs who want Duran - because everyone wants Duran." #AVFC— Jacob Tanswell (@J_Tanswell) September 9, 2024
🚨🇨🇴 Monchi: “There are no fewer than 40 clubs who want Durán”.“But Emery is very confident with Jhon. He thinks Durán he can become one of the best strikers in the world”.“He wanted to leave, yes. Just because he wants to play, normal. But now it’s all good, he’s happy”. pic.twitter.com/3MyMU2b7nF— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) September 10, 2024
Maybe. West Ham would have started him. At a certain point, being a starter in the Prem is a big deal considering how concentrated the talent is there. Even mid table teams are stacked. As is being first sub, and an impact one at that, on a Champions League team is great at his age. It's what Julian Alvarez was at City and no one bat an eye at him starting ahead of Lautaro.
I don’t know man we got a bad boy on our hands. He should be cordobas sub for now kid is hungry for a hattrick I like him. He has that James competitiveness

Had a pretty weak header in a great position now but who cares. Good thing he didn't pick up any yellow this time. It shall be fun to see him in CL.
AVL 3-2 EVE (76') - Lo de Jhon Durán es tremendo. Ha marcado 8 goles en sus 676 minutos en la Premier League. Su promedio (1 gol cada 85 minutos) es el SEGUNDO mejor de cualquier jugador, con un mínimo de 5 goles anotados, en TODA la historia de la Premier League.

Remember when people here were saying Villa was a bad spot for him? He seems to coming on just fine. Now we just need Falcao or some veteran on the NT to take him under his wing and teach him how to be a pro... The ceiling is nuts. 3 - Seven of Jhon Durán’s eight Premier League goals have come as a substitute, with all three of his goals in the competition this season being winning goals from the bench. Indeed, no player has scored more winners as a substitute in a single Premier League campaign. DuranDuran pic.twitter.com/Ux7E5rtwAE— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) September 14, 2024
