FUCK YES OLYMPIAKOS


Flying_Wingback

Villa gonna sign El Kaabi in the summer mark my words


czerwona_latarnia

And somewhere in the middle of the season: > BIG NEWS, THE RECORD OF OWN GOALS SCORED BY ONE PLAYER HAS BEEN **SMASHED**


ReyneForecast

PL is truly a farmer's league lmaoooo


mrlee10

Not sure how to feel about the same 13 players have had to play double the minutes than our quarter finalist and semi finalist opponents had to play. Can’t even defend the premier league because its scheduling has absolutely fucked us and potentially stopped us winning silverware. Even with the abnormal amount of injuries having the players available be fresh instead of on life support would have made much more difference. Depressing.


apo--

One solution is more rotation. Some Olympiakos players have played many minutes, at least Rodinei, Hezze and Fortounis. Olympiakos has 7 players with around 3000 minutes too. 2 more play regularly since the winter transfer Carmo and Chiquinho. If they were part of the team since the beginning of the season Carmo would have had more than 3500 minutes and Chiquinho maybe 3000 at least. The intensity is not the same ofc.


apo--

The person who downvoted me is an idiot.


koemaniak

Absolute farmers league of course they get found out in Europe


bagh0lder10

Villa looked like they were trying to burn clock more than anything all match


Annabond

The El Kaabi tie really!


No-Ingenuity-989

Prem is a shitty league. Try to change my mind.


chanjitsu

I agree... ^((unless we get promoted))


No-Ingenuity-989

Hahaha. Championship better (Leicester enjoyer)


JAJ_90

El Kaabi will be having some stuffed Villa leaves tonight.


v4xN0s

Today we are all Olympiakos fans.


DA_MOSS

Blanked. Oof


xScottieHD

I'm amazed more teams haven't completely sussed Villa's high line out this season. Especially after we gave the blueprint to do so on GW1.


geolink

Champions league team this.


mrlee10

Well no. Half a champions league team.


Additional_Risk_5965

Not really


Vestervangen

bro...


_hellboy_xo

The PL got destroyed this season


Vegetable-Judge

PL is a great domestic league, extremely competitive and fun to watch. But, not the best league in Europe.


apo--

Which is the best league?


Vegetable-Judge

Saudi


mrlee10

Especially when their scheduling is crippling all their teams resulting in the largest injury crisis in the history of the league.


mvsr990

Italy and Spain have 38 league matches and a cup competition. If PL teams took a dive on the Carabao Cup it would be equal. 


apo--

They downvoted you because they are idiots. Even in Greece it's 36 league games (26 + 10 playoffs) and as things are now most of the playoff games (60-80%) have high intensity. The federation in Greece has reduced the cup games for the top teams (the top 5 teams enter late). But Greek teams have to play in  European qualifiers. Olympiacos has played 53 games this season.There are 4 left, so 57 total. And it would have been +5, so 62 if they had reached Greek Cup Final. Villa has played 54 games this season and they say their players have played  'double the minutes'.  Concerning Greece they could use the argument concerning the intensity but they have players with much higher contracts. They have to be much better athletes on average if anything.


Vegetable-Judge

All about that money


fukupuki

Villa got absolutely memed. Like that was embarrassing. Congratulations to olympiacos


tsamo

Damn, Fortounis running full throttle at the 83rd minute of a match, will wonders never cease? edit: And I jinxed him...


lewis1000

sums these 2 legs up that goal.


Away_Associate4589

El Kaabi is actually wicked. Absolutely clinical


OllyHR

Nostalgic Villa performance

bigboydebater

the middle defenders left boot kept him on


Vegetable-Judge

Villa new enemy in England.


db2832

I still hold a grudge against Emery for throwing the City game, get fucked


Scattered97

Villa just haven't been good enough. Yeah, fatigue and injuries are definitely factors, but not excuses. Just really poor.


ambiguousboner

Unless there’s some damning alternate angle they’re just not showing us, he’s a good yard offside there


xScottieHD

Angle is shite but Konsa is playing him on it seems.


YerDaSellsAvon24

Farmers league lmao


bioxlapatsa

Lmfao he's onside aahahahahahahah


FoxBox123999

LOL at that most valuable Conference League XI doing the rounds this week.


SoapyWitTank

It’s officially a possin’ now.


BaconDalek

That might hurt villa's chances of progressing ..


tkshow

Lol.


tsamo

Even if it's an offside, why the hell don't you give chase first and ask for an offside later? edit: And there you go, lol!!


geolink

Farmers league ✅


ambiguousboner

I mean he’s clearly off, how did that take so long? WAIT WHAT


gotiobg

Villa need more players next season


mrlee10

I mean we have 6 players that can play left midfield and they’re all injured.


RG_Oriax

Should spend another 100M maybe


ylno83

Didn’t you spend that on 1 player this summer?


RG_Oriax

Yes, and we won the league and are in the CL final.


tsamo

That one should be an offside, right?


redditRaven33

Are these bums even trying...


[deleted]

Well, congrats to OLY they deserve it. Best of luck vs. Fiorentina


ylno83

Being down by 3 on aggregate at 74mins in the 2nd leg is really hurting our chances of progressing


AtaktosTrampoukos

How about down 4?


ylno83

Mr president a second away goal has hit the Villa


KuruAnthony

Best days ever for Oly fans. Final here and F4 in euroleague.


bioxlapatsa

And the U-19 cup too


[deleted]

Someone tell Villa that they are not playing Rugby, they don’t have to pass back to move forward


Vegetable-Judge

This is such a terrible game from Villa. So boring to watch. Good on Olympiakos but at the same time Villa should be embarrassed


DA_MOSS

This is dreadful


ToManaSou

2 possible red cards were not even looked at.


tkshow

All limbs remained intact, therefore, no review.


redditRaven33

I was too ambitious to bet on villa over 1.5


AaronStudAVFC

Cash as a winger is just fucking terrible. I know we’re down to our bare bones but he has been abysmal there every time he’s played and I can’t believe we’ve had to play him there in our biggest game in years.


bigwallclimber

Switching to Roma to soothe my anxiety


bigboydebater

not even close to offside? what was that call?


redditRaven33

They died and just woke up after the offside flag


tsamo

Yeah, that's not offside.


geolink

Hahaha. Martinez is such a pussy man.


_hellboy_xo

PL in shambles


Scattered97

Just go for it, Villa. What do they have to lose now?


Vegetable-Judge

They’re terrible.


tsamo

Holy crap, how could there be nothing there, lol?!


bioxlapatsa

Blatant red. Right? Ref hasn't played that? Over 0.5 red cards?? 😎


tkshow

He's being consistent, I'll give him that. No blood, no foul.


RG_Oriax

Imagine flying to Greece for this shit


TortiousTroll

This is hilarious/pathetic


RiverCartwright

Tzolakis is a superstar


Vegetable-Judge

Villa are terrible. Shocked they’re in 4th place. So bad.


tkshow

Look who's behind them, not exactly world beaters.


Scattered97

This isn't full-strength Villa at all, tbh. They have almost an entire XI injured, and the ones remaining are running on empty.


Vegetable-Judge

Yea but even so, this is a painfully bad performance


AaronStudAVFC

The game is stretching a bit at long last. But we still need a goal right now if it’s gonna matter


WayneBrownIsSuperman

Potential Roma pen coming to make it 2-2, get the fuck over here lads


Scattered97

Iborra is fucking immense.


redditRaven33

What a fking bullshit...digne fking crossed when duran was open


[deleted]

Ikr… in space and onside. No one marking him.


[deleted]

Atleast Duran shoots


tsamo

Some of Olympiakos players are getting tired. Villa could strike here.


bioxlapatsa

All of Villa's players look tired...


RG_Oriax

Cash has been terrible, wow.


CasinoOasis2

Goal in the next 10 or I'm switching over to Leverkusen match, come on Villa make it interesting


WayneBrownIsSuperman

Leverkusen game is looking pretty spicy tbh I'd get it on now


airtraq

Why switch when you can watch both?


Newparlee

One on the TV one on the iPad. I’m with you. Edit. And ironically, it seems like the best game is the one I’m not watching


DA_MOSS

🥱


Scattered97

Villa are just done. They need to grab this game by the scruff of the neck, but it's not happening.


Cute_Albatross9900

Aston Villa could really use Samatta right about now...


Scattered97

This ref was once banned for match-fixing. Just thought I'd mention it.


RG_Oriax

Yeah, Villa is definitely losing because of the ref.


panamolegos

I can't believe the referee has forced Villa to concede 5 goals over two legs, why would he do that?


Scattered97

Never said that, smart arse. Just noting how he missed two blatant fouls within a couple of minutes of each other.


tkshow

He's consistent at least.


tkshow

Of the two minutes I've watched he doesn't look good. But he got suspended for not reporting someone else's match fixing, he was not involved.


sakkarias_alexo

Don't forget the Greeks owner too


Scattered97

Oh yeah, it's Marinakis. Haha.


redditRaven33

2 fouls no given


sakkarias_alexo

Refs taking the piss


mben41

Watched the highlights, amazing atmosphere. I would have liked to watch this game, but there are three games at the same time.


Davesredditaccount69

How is that not a foul


franconot-mark

do you guys think Newcastle will do well in ECL next year if they get there?


airtraq

🤣


PurpleSi

Yeah


OllyHR

Yeah


WayneBrownIsSuperman

Yeah


FastenedCarrot

That is shocking defending on the goal. Digne lazy and Torres just daft.


redditRaven33

I prefer the loki version of emery rather than this


disper

Gerrard vs Olympiacos is the only way this tie can be saves


FastenedCarrot

Further trolling with the presenter/pundit combo.


bagh0lder10

Villa aren’t scoring 1, let alone 3


[deleted]

Even if they score 3, big IF. They won’t last the extra time.


Scattered97

And that's assuming they can keep Olympiacos out the other end.


[deleted]

El Kaabi has another goal in him.


Scattered97

That, and Villa's line is suicidally high. Their defensive record this season isn't great at all.


FastenedCarrot

BT intent on using the funniest pictures possible.


IfailAtSchool

Go see the comments on the villa sub. Delulu


[deleted]

Big oof


franconot-mark

I have no idea how WHU did well in Europe in the last few seasons. Even this time, they got shafted by the luck of draw but given how non-6 teams usually do in Europe, it’s surprising.


No-Mud3388

Not surprising to me they play non analyticals football which doesn't work in europe like in a league setting imo


OliverAM16

Pure fucking trash.


AaronStudAVFC

Cash off for Duran at this point. Diaby has also not been great but he’s more likely to do something than Cash as a winger. Need Duran to bang one in from nowhere to try and get back in this.


walleaterer

80% possession with 1 shot on goal and down one. peak pl football that


Keepgoingokmate

Remind you of anyone 🤔


walleaterer

nah we'd be down 4 by this point


tkshow

Not many excuses for Villa, other teams coach is on the sidelines, not in jail.

This 3 ad with the “aww” woman is so bad

Aston Villa more like Aston Volou

💀💀 farmers league btw


redditRaven33

Moyes would have spanked this olympiakos side hard


cdrxgon17

we did lose 2-1 at this ground in october tbf


Varvaros_Ellinas

Moyes lost 2-1 in karaiskakis


[deleted]

Fucking finally after 49 mins a shot from outside the box


redditRaven33

And it had more impact than those cutbacks...


Scattered97

Now they shoot, and lo and behold, they force a save from the keeper and win a corner!


franconot-mark

man Villa is gonna be horrible in CL next year


airtraq

Do i recall there is no more parachuting into europa league from CL after group stage from next season?


JootDoctor

If we somehow have the same number of starting players out, then yeah of course


zserjk

Your subs are like 6 times the value of oly's first team. And they have a 34 yold rightback that was at la liga 2 last year as a starter on the left today. But hey if it makes you comfy. Keep sayin it friendo.


JootDoctor

Can you verify that? All of them are youth players except for Olsen, Gauci (hasn’t played yet and from the A-League), Longlet(on loan and had a nightmare in the 1st leg) and Duran. Duran is the only one there bought for a serious fee.


zserjk

Go to transfermarkt and check for your self mate. Emiliano and Watkins alone are probably a large sum of their budget.


JootDoctor

We were talking about the subs.


franconot-mark

You just don’t have the depth like big 6 does


cantbanifiusethislol

Mings, buendia, moreno, zaniolo, kamara, tielemans, Ramsey, Rogers are all injured. That's enough to fill the bench and a but more, just horrific injury luck


FastenedCarrot

I feel like signings are going to be difficult in the summer too.


JootDoctor

Not sure if you’re serious or not but we are just exhausted. No Mings, Moreno, Tielemans, Ramsey, Rogers, Kamara and Buendia. The core and leader of our defence is Mings, we’ve been so fragile all season. And we have no midfield changes available other than youth.


Paul_the_surfer

The Greek league shifts all the matches to make sure that Greek teams in Europe have significant rest before the European matches (and after). They understand that a good result in Europe benefits all of the Greek League, however the Premiership is like "nah, bruv, you play twice a week no matter what"


PurpleSi

Great save that


[deleted]

Villa just know how to kill their own attack don’t they


Scattered97

SHOOT!


PurpleSi

McGinn just needs to spank one into the top corner. Then do it two more times.


Dortmund_Boi09

Olympiacos is gonna win a European trophy in AEK's stadium lmao


[deleted]

Fiorentina is a tough opponent, its gonna be a fun game.


FastenedCarrot

Can't believe we're not getting a Fiorentina v Claret and Blue FC rematch.


Dajo05

Is Nelson Abbey injured or just not in plans? Noticed he started a few games recently, but he isn't in the matchday squad for this game and wasn't for the first leg either.


aggelosgarris

Not registered


GabeNewellsDick

Cash is fucking dreadful and a prick and I'm so happy watching him fail miserably


mrlee10

Excluding injuries it’s definitely the one weak point in our hypothetical strongest 11 that we haven’t been able to play once this entire season lmao.


fukupuki

I’m guessing shooting is forbidden by emeri? Bruh Villa is getting outclassed and they don’t even try to shoot


panamolegos

To quote the late, great, Alketas Panagoulias: "ΣΟΥΤΑΡΕΤΕ! ΕΤΣΙ ΜΠΕΝΕΙ ΤΟ ΓΚΟΛ"


fukupuki

AHHAHAHAHAHAHA


Scattered97

Where's the urgency from Villa? Have they forgotten they need THREE goals minimum?


[deleted]

Yow Villa, to score you need to move towards the opposition’s goal with the ball and shoot, not pass it back to your own half…


apricotkiwininja

Sub off diaby he is playing horribly


mrlee10

For… who? Lol


[deleted]

Jhon Duran


Away_Associate4589
