We simply haven't got enough quality in the squad, and any team with a midfield that consists of Westwood and Bacuna is going to struggle. This team isn't good enough to carry passengers, and we need 2 more midfielders to sure things up if that is the outcome when either Jedinak or Tish are out injured/suspended...the outcome without better players coming in is the kind of result that we had yesterday.

Did anyone else have a close encounter with 20 odd Welsh lads after the game?

What you get up to in private is no business of ours. We're not here to judge

No, but I've just had my sister (Lesley) phone up and crow at me.

Mmmm, I saw Alan waving at me at one point and, just when I thought It was safe, they drove past honking the horn as I was outside a pub waiting for a taxi...so childish.

I predicted 9th before the season started, that is optimistic at this point. We're so fragile, any pressure we come under we crumble. Luton, Huddersfield, Bristol City, as soon as they came at us we buckled. We are also only capable of playing 'well' for one half. Luton, Huddersfield and yesterday again. Where are all these leaders and captains we signed? Massive couple of days and couple of weeks for us coming up. Signings and a lot of gelling needed.

What happened?

It was rather tense at the time but repeating it makes it sound like a cup of tea with Ghandi and Mother Teresa. We were walking through the town and looking for the station, as we pulled our phones out to check the route about 20 blokes walked over one of the bridges, we both remarked that they weren't Villa fans and before we knew it the one at the front was face to face with me, in a Welsh accent he says " do you want to come and watch the footy with us" thinking he was wanting to check my accent I said "noooo" in my best Welsh tone. There was seemed like minutes of us staring at each other trying to suss out what to do next before they all carried on walking. As we walked further towards the station a riot van spun round and headed back to where we'd met.

Sounds like the infamous South Wales Villa firm.

Why the Welsh accent though? You could have done a Bristol one, unless they were Plaid Cymru militants I suppose.

Easy to spot via the tartan hankies drooping out of their back pockets (apparently). ;)

Ayew swapped with a real goal-scorer and team player
Keeper is useless. Makes Guzan look like Schmeichel...
since Guzan is the only thing you seem to care about, any chance he was forced upon the manger by that previous owner?

Did I say Guzan is all I care about anywhere in that comment?

I find the concept of goalkeepers being forced on the manager(s) by an owner to be more than a bit fanciful.
