Fucking hell, end is nigh, we're suddenly shite.

 

We will be good just one of those days, lots of disruption because the managers been missing a good while. Just a blip.

 

 

Haven’t seen anyone say we’re shite - because we’re not

 

This is a shite performance, though - which happens

Worst performance of the season this. Absolutely miles off every position on the pitch. Couldn't even do the basics well today. Just always worse when it's against these scumbags.


Take it not the chin and move on, they’ve been shite today but given what they’ve done they can be given some slack.

Everyone is playing shite, that's most likely a tactical thing...hopefully Eddie is fit for next week. Too much Tindall.

 

Be surprised if Howe is back this season tbh

Nope a game which highlights home advantage an extra days rest and a Saudi bailout. Don't over react the squad they have is borrowed and nothing special and extremely expensive. 

 

The way they deal with ffp is short term gambles we are more pragmatic about things. 

They can call on Rashford, Malen, Onana, Ramsey, Bailey, Barkley, Digne. We have Gordon. It may be borrowed but that bench is light years away from what we can bring on.

Okey [emoji38] I recommend watching the highlights afterwards.

Been watching the whole match - hitting posts doesn't mean a thing, just that their strikers aren't as clinical as some depressives would have everyone believe. Our run's caught up on us a bit, fair, but Villa's not outclassed us by any means. They've had massive help from a homer of a ref, we've been given nothing, they've been sneaky and got rewards for it. Hey ho, we've been done today, we've not embarrassed ourselves though.

Villa are a very good team, disappointing yes but we've been in good form and it was going to end at some point.

 

Hopefully will refocus minds.

Was always the most difficult game - but we've been totally outclassed.  We look tired.

one of the main problems today imo is that we haven’t done this. Schar has stood 10 yards off Watkins every time :lol:


Nah. We kept trying it and got fucked over. Then ended up in no man’s land where we are half arsing the press. Their second goal came from that. Most of their chances have come from doing exactly this. 

As @Disco pointed out. We also don’t seem to get anyone in passing lanes. To Martinez just has a free 30-50 yard pass  up the middle of the pitch every time. 

 

Villa are great at what they do. But it’s hardly a new thing and we’ve played right into their hands. Emery must be laughing his cock off.

They have so many more quality options than us off the bench. 

 

They were creaming us before bench came into play tbf. Tindall has just been outmanoeuvred.

Howay man, can you imagine the reaction if we'd made a load of changes bringing our crappy backup players in after winning 4-1 and 5-0. :lol:

 

Unfortunately we don't really have that many options. Our biggest strength is our first XI and momentum - we just have to roll with that until we have more strength in depth. It will catch up with us, particularly when we play in quick succession and against a team with lots of options.

This forum is way OTT. Villa are very strong at home. We were very unlucky with 2 of their goals. Move on and beat Ipswich next weekend.
