Hope Rooney doesn't get fit in time so Kane HAS to play.

It's the same under every manager though. Ryan Taylor would be playing if he was still here.

None up front at home to Bournemouth?

Great point. Phew.

Not a single thing this season has given us any sign of staying up. Nothing.

I reckon a bit of clapping, then silence, then 17th minute clapping at the next home match is in order.

I'd take carver back.

Well, we're going to be at villa park again next season.

Well, he will.

Yeah, hilarious.

Can't wait for this knacker to hang his boots up. We'd be better with 10 men.

Have we had a shot yet?

This actually could be 12 by the end ?

We're gonna win 7-6

I'm pretty sure that him going down is why he's in trouble in the first place tbh.

I can see why many won't rate him. Skill wise I think he's probably inferior to Thauvin and Cabella, and he's like Sissoko in that he tends to run into defenders because he's sometimes too direct. But I don't necessarily see that as a fault. Yes Sissoko might lose the ball a lot, but when he gets by the player he tends to create great scoring chances because he's took the defence out. Compare that to Cabella with his triple step overs or Obertan who ends his speedy bursts with a check back, circle and pass backwards. Forwards like early and consistent delivery. Andros isn't great, but I think he'll provide that far better than either Cabella or Obertan would. I see him as a very expensive version of Routledge (who I feel we should have kept).

What a shocker. Everyone was fully expecting such a great year too.

Who says you can't take a throw in with gloves on? It's not in any fifa rules is it?

Townsend at left back, 5 in midfield, Mitrovic isolated, replaced in the second half. 0-0

I look forward to his interview more than matches these days, for the lols.

I was predicting the words of our tremendous manager tbh. Top draw trolling,was 3-0 and Elliot made about 4 great saves shud been 7

Still the fans turn up and sit in silence. Good luck to them.

Very unlucky. Ignore the dubious penalties and their first, we were right in it for a point until the last minute. Pleased to see a reaction, nice to see the new boys starting to click. Perez was very poor though, think he's still got his new contract on the brain.

Ten still.

What are your thoughts on the performance and our chances of staying up pray tell?
