Not sure if this has been mentioned but watching that yesterday bore similarities with the Newcastle game of a couple of seasons ago, when they needed a win to stay up. That day Newcastle had no fight in them, no one busting a gut and no desire. Yesterday Villa were Newcastle, the difference is we have time to put it right but the application needs to be there as yesterday was embarrassing.
My mates a Newcastle fan and he said that for the first 3 quarters of the season he just kept thinking that the players they had were too good to go down until it finally dawned that they lacked enough spirit to stay up.
What summed it up for me was in the second half when if Downing had sprinted into the challenge he would have made it a 50/50 instead he though sod this and slowed down.We have relegation written all over us, far to many players not prepared to stand up and be counted,
