Hard to fathom why Moyes didn't use his bench more. It is his job to affect a game when we are good enough to win but not getting there. N'Diaye being doubtful to start should not have stayed for 90. He has Charly on the bench who can shake up a game late and is not really a gamble. With both Grealish and KDH picking up yellow's we had lots of opportunity to mix it up. We are strting to look a bit like a one-man-team which is scary.

Oh and the refereeing was just s**te
If you look at the team sheet on sky sports it seems we had a Carlos Alcaraz on our bench so that’s clearly why Moyes didn’t bring him in.
 

Honestly not making any further subs wasn’t that much of an issue. I felt like we were in control of the game and was just waiting to a moment of brilliance because the Villa defenders played great. Absolutely wasn’t worth risking our control and potentially losing. As others have said, last year we lose that. Dibbling wouldn’t have offered anything massively different to Ndiaye nor would Alcaraz to KDH

If you can’t win next best thing is the draw. Today wasn’t worth the gamble with the derby next week too
