Fulham vs Aston Villa

Aston Villa XI: Martinez, Bednarek, Konsa, Mings, Young, Ramsey, Douglas Luiz, McGinn, Bailey, Ings, Watkins Subs: Olsen, Cash, Sanson, Buendia, Chambers, ...

Davis got a win at the weekend but Wolves lost at Palace on Tuesday, and weren’t great for most of the game. 67 min: Nketiah is the latest Arsenal player to go close, cutting in and shooting with his left. The celebration, a spreading of the arms and a huge smile reminded of Tony Adams v Everton in 1998. He took a whack to the calf, and goes down. Fulham get a corner, it comes in from the left, and Harrison Reed, it goes loose, smashes it with and swerve into the Villa net. The Villa fans in decent voice now. He didn’t brief the press under the table, he didn’t downgrade his abilities. Villa fans queuing to boo their team, and Steven. Harrison Reed’s goal, by the way, was a beauty. Back out at Craven Cottage where Matty Cash will come for Villa to try and stop Willian’s runs down the left. Mitro goes down as they go chest to chest, and there’s a head gone in from the Brazilian. 54 min: Villa have a corner, they need something.

Aston Villa: Jan Bednarek is handed his full debut, replacing Matty Cash. Ashley Young makes his 400th Premier League appearance, while Philippe Coutinho ...

Of course we know their strengths, we know some weaknesses that we should exploit as well, and we are ready for the match. This is a big evening for the ageless wonder that is Ashley Young. Tonight begins what may prove to be the pivotal stretch of Villa’s entire season. Three wins in their next three, and Fulham could be sitting very pretty indeed. I’m here to fight every single minute of every day and I’ve got every belief and confidence in myself that I can change this situation. He is the 42nd player to reach that particular landmark. The oldest....Teddy Sheringham. Willian, Pereira and Palhinha are involved in some clever interplay before the ball finds it's way to De Cordova-Reid on the right. The hosts are really pressing now. He feeds Reed on the by-line whose cut-back pass finds an unmarked Mitrovic before a slip ruins his chance of getting his shot away cleanly. Fulham have dominated the first half. Chances at both ends following the goal.

Fulham sits 12th with 12 points in its return to the Premier League, three points more than a 17th-place Villa side which expected much better this season.

Villa’s won the expected goals battle in four-straight matches including a loss to Chelsea last time out, but that’s only bagged Gerrard’s men five of nine points. Wide service has been a specialty for the Cottagers, with Neeskens Kebano, Kevin Mbabu, Kenny Tete, and Antonee Robinson all feeding the big Serbian forward. Silva’s Cottagers looking solid: Whether out-producing early-season performances or delivering points off superior displays, Fulham looks a lot better than it did at almost any point in its last Premier League season. So it was meaningful that his healthy players buzzed out of the gates on Thursday, showing support for the boss’ tenure (or at least pride). Villa took 13 of the first half’s 21 shots, putting seven on target. The Cottagers improved their goal differential to minus-1 with the win.

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard is on the brink of being axed as Aston Villa manager after his side collapsed to a miserable 3-0 defeat to promoted Fulham.

But Harvey Barnes added the killer second goal in the 35th minute. A third Villa defender, Tyrone Mings, turned Neeskens Kebano’s cross into his own net in the 83rd minute to cap off Gerrard’s nightmare loss.

Harrison Reed, Aleksandar Mitrovic and an own goal from Tyrone Mings gave Fulham a 3-0 win over Aston Villa, who had Douglas Luiz sent off.

There was a booking for Mings for cleaning out Willian and before play could restart Michael Oliver was going over to the pitchside monitor to watch a replay of Luiz butting Mitrovic. At least the goal stirred Villa into life, Bernd Leno denying Ollie Watkins and Danny Ings, but it was not enough to placate the travelling support. Villa were shapeless and Gerrard’s decision to play Bednarek looked misguided from the moment that Willian and Antonee Robinson began to team up on Konsa. The fans who travelled down to Craven Cottage summed up the darkening mood, booing their manager at half-time and after the final whistle, and on the evidence of their efforts here the players have also given up on Gerrard, who was unable to change anything about his team failing to match It was a night of indignities by the Thames. There was Douglas Luiz making it easy for Marco Silva’s rampant Fulham by letting the side down with a brainless red card.

Harrison Reed and Aleksandar Mitrovic scored on either side of a Douglas Luiz red card as Fulham heaped misery on struggling Aston Villa at Craven Cottage.

Cristiano Ronaldo won’t be appearing for United after his actions in midweek, while Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial are working their way back to fitness. Wesley Fofana, Reece James and N’Golo Kante remain long-term injury absentees for Chelsea, while Conor Gallagher came off in the first half of their midweek draw at Brentford due to illness. Kepa Arrizabalaga has kept five clean sheets in a row in all competitions and made some superb saves against Villa and Brentford as he’s keeping Edouard Mendy out of the team.

LONDON: Steven Gerrard was sacked as Aston Villa manager less than two hours after his struggling side crashed to a dismal 3-0 defeat at Fulham on Thursday ...

I'll continued to fight unless I'm told differently," he said. Advertisement We will see what happens.

The former Liverpool captain departed after Villa's sixth defeat in 11 league games this season, with Mauricio Pochettino a potential replacement.

“I have been around the game a long time and I certainly understand the situation.” Villa ran out of steam last season, finishing 14th, and have made a poor start to this campaign. The 42-year-old has been in the job for less than a year and has been unable to make a success of his first management role in English football. It remains to be seen if the former Tottenham manager, who is out of work after being sacked by Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season, would be willing to enter a relegation battle. “We would like to thank Steven for his hard work and commitment and wish him well for the future,” a Villa spokesman said. They were tactically poor and lacked effort.

Fulham increase the pressure on Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard with a deserved victory at Craven Cottage.

Fulham have piled even more pressure on Steven Gerrard after beating Aston Villa 3-0 at Craven Cottage.

His arm was away from his body, however, and Oliver points to the spot. Mitrovic gets a shot away from a tight angle and it strikes Cash on the hand at close range. Mitrovic got on the scoresheet not long afterwards, winning a penalty after catching Matty Cash on the hand with a shot inside the area. Luiz moved his head towards his opponent and Mitrovic went down in a heap, leaving Michael Oliver, the referee, with little choice but to show the Brazilian a straight red after a VAR review. Neither Martinez nor Mings were able to keep out Harrison Reed, however, with the Fulham midfielder scoring after a period of sustained pressure. Emi Martinez twice denied Willian and tipped over a curling free-kick from Andreas Pereira, while Aleksandar Mitrovic twice headed off target from menacing positions and, around the 15-minute mark, was only denied the opener after Tyrone Mings cleared off the line.

Harrison Reed, Aleksandar Mitrovic and a Tyrone Mings own goal saw Fulham romp to a 3-0 win over Aston Villa which saw Steven Gerrard sacked barely an hour after full-time. Villa were booed off at half and full-time by their frustrated sell-out travelling ...

"I've sent messages to the fans for the last few weeks because I share their frustration and pain. Every single match is a great challenge ahead of us, and it has to make us stronger and I'm sure that's what will happen with Steven. It's really important for us, and it's the perfect night. "I spoke to [Steven Gerrard] after the game, as we do usually after the game. I have been around the game a long time, I understand the situation and won't sugar coat the situation or give anyone false lines. I understand the fans' frustration and it was so far from how we looked at the weekend. "The performance was miles away from what I want, expect and stand for. "Clearly it was not a question Christian Purslow or the Villa board could answer either. But in the end, so too did his spell at Villa Park after a defeat which begged one too many questions about where his often rudderless squad were heading. "Villa have lost key figures to injury but that does not explain their rot, losing six of their 11 league games in 2022/23. Steven Gerrard made one change at Fulham from the encouraging defeat by Chelsea on Sunday, bringing in Jan Bednarek for Matty Cash. Gerrard had seen enough, and hooked Ezri Konsa for Cash at the break.
