Aston Villa 2-2 QPR post match thread

[Toronto Villa]

Very, very, very frustrating. We are own worst enemies. Wasteful and careless all game. So many issues to fix.

And QPR you cheating, time wasting bastards.

Playoffs let alone promotion places feel a really long way off

[pauliewalnuts]

Terrible shit.

[themossman]

I know I know... mitigating circumstances but last few performances have been no better than the stuff RDR and Bruce served up.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Piss poor performance all over the pitch. Need to go back to basics as whatever we're trying to do, and your guess is as good as mine, just simply isn't working.

[AV82EC]

These draws are killing us.

[jwarry]

The only positive I can take from that is that Tommy is ok, and if I’m honest better than Chester

[PaulWinch again]

Shit again. Not fucking good enough. It’s a good thing we have a clinical striker, because we’re pretty aimless going forward as well as being shit at the back, particularly with Hutton at left back.

2 goals conceded yet again.

[Nastylee]

We've been average for weeks. Completely lost momentum. Glad the cup game gives us a break and a chance to regroup and maybe fix the squad. As mad as it is we're not out of anything yet but draws in this league are pretty worthless.

Apparently none of the clubs positioned 3-6 this time last year finished in the play offs.

Fucking dreadful.  If Bruce has served up our last few performances this place would be in meltdown.

[Rudy65]

It’s all hit and hope. Their keeper didn’t make a decent save in the second half

[CT Villan]

Sloppy again. What's happened to the swagger ?

Elphick did well. Kodjia, Hourihane and McGinn need to improve. BB adds nothing to the midfield, we need someone to carry the ball through the middle.

Not sure if O'Hare is fit again, but would like to see him get some minutes while Jack is out.

[JUAN PABLO]

Yannick and Kodja   .. both talented but greedy fucks ....   could easily have looked up and we would have scored // Id get rid of Kodja ..

Hutton tries but he isnt good enough goes missing and losing his position every time ..

Conor was rubbish ..   plays like butter easy to cut through

cant fault Tammy he scores

why the fuck does whelan take set pieces

BB was very average  . Thought Bree was ok at RB

lots of final balls were dreadful

very disappointing today .. 2 pts dropped , we are running out of ideas , we desperate need Jack , otherwise buy that Freeman of QPR

[PaulWinch again]

That was a proper aimless Bruce style display. Sort it out Dean, this is not good enough.

[Toronto Villa]

I know I know... mitigating circumstances but last few performances have been no better than the stuff RDR and Bruce served up.

Said this in the match thread but Steve Bruce hoof ball DNA is coursing through the veins of this club. When we get desperate the players revert to what they know. And it looks every bit as ugly as when Bruce was here.

Wasteful is the key, we had plenty of chances but we just didn't force the keeper to make enough saves because too many of our players have no composure in front of goal. The Bolasie effort when he cut inside is, I reckon, the worst shot I've seen since Tonev, appalling technique.

That said, get a proper left back and a proper defensive midfielder and we win that game comfortably even with the missed chances, Hopefully Smith will act early and get a couple more new signings through the door in the next week or so. Then it's fingers crossed that Grealish gets back soon.
