We could really do with not losing this one if you don't mind Tim.
Guzan, Bacuna, Vlaar, Clark, Richardson, Cleverley, Delph (c), Sanchez, Grealish, Agbonlahor, Benteke
Given, Baker, Okore, Weimann, Cole, N’Zogbia, Lowton
-
So the Gil thing looks to be true then.
-
Oooohh
Grealish
Richardson
Bacuna
Three man midfield - or a diamond perhaps?
No nzogbia
All a little surprising
Quite pleased overall. Delph and cleverley will be crucial in supporting the attack.
-
The Gil thing if he doesn't have an injury is getting a bit stupid isn't it?
-

-
Getting very nervous already about this one. We need to get at their ageing midfield, that is going to be the key to this one I think
-
The Gil thing if he doesn't have an injury is getting a bit stupid isn't it?
It's very strange. Looked a quality player, typical Spaniard and someone to get excited about, now he can't even get in the squad?
-
No Gil in the squad. Quite what the fuck Joe Cole, or Weimann offer from the bench over Gil is beyond me.
Lowton benched is harsh, Bacuna and Richardson are about as full on attacking full backs as you could get. Clark and Vlaar at the back is sensible I think. Glad Cleverley and Sanchez start with Delph to give depth.
Grealish - what a night to start. Good luck son.
Their front 6 are all very experienced, and their central 4 if you like, Austin, Zamora, Barton, Sandro are all very physical compared to ours. Caulker and Onourha will be up for the battle against Benteke unless he is bang on it too. The one player you look at and think sending off waiting to happen is Hill up against Grealish, but Jack needs to not throw himself to the floor.
The back of the sofa awaits, with hands above face.
-
With five changes we should be fresher - assuming they're genuinely fit
Let's get right at them from the outset
-
Just win the fucking game Villa. Grealish this is your chance now turn up.
-
Grealish up against their ageing but experienced defence is a mouthwatering prospect.
COME ON YOU VILLA BOYS!!
-
I wonder if grealish is in partly to excite the fans?
Let's go for it from the off. But let's not chuck everyone forward and get rinsed on the break. And let's not let in yet another last minute winner if it's level
I've got a horrible feeling QPR will win 2-1.
-
Poor team selection if I'm honest.
Sanchez dear oh dear, and no Nzogbia ? Bizarre.
Joe Cole, bloody hell.
-
I have a sense of impending doom about this match.
Oh for a season of mid table comfort.
-
A bold and brave team selection for a game like this. Rather this approach than one where any confidence is paralysed by fear.
Whatever the result, we look like we will try and win rather than hope we don't loose.
-
I hope Sherwood has learnt that being wreckless and being bold are two different things.
-
I'm not too thrilled by Okore being dropped to be honest.
-
Tactics will no doubt blame the dog eating his homework. They have two shit full backs so decides today is the day we play with no wingers. At least the midfield looks more solid though wtf is Vlaar doing back?
The whole Gil thing is beyond a joke.
-
Must. Score. First.
-
In Tim we trust and hope he's got it right for this crucial game. ::)
I assume Gil must be really crap in training if he can't make the squad or he's upset the manager.
-
You cannot be worse than Joe Cole
-
Have to confess I am scared to the point of feeling sick...
-
Is anyone else shaking like a shitting puppy over this match?
-
Where is Richard Dunne when you need him ?
-
I feel like I do when I am really hungover, with the sense that there is some catastrophic event is going to happen......
-
I hope Sherwood has learnt that being wreckless and being bold are two different things.
I think this is a very risky selection, Vlaar, Grealish and Richardson have hardly kicked a ball for weeks. I would've been happier with Lowton and Nzog to start.
-
I'm not too thrilled by Okore being dropped to be honest.
Okore is the future. Vlaar is the better player today. It makes sense from a quality standpoint and leadership. Just because he made a big mistake in the last game shouldn't change the fact he is the valuable to the side. Especially tonight.
-
Must. Score. First.
Yup but in true Villa style I expect us to be 2 down by half time.
-
Where is Richard Dunne when you need him ?
Is anyone else shaking like a shitting puppy over this match?
Yes, I almost don't know whether to listen to it or not on R5. I am going to have it on in the bath as that seems to calm me down a bit for some reason.
-
I feel like I do when I am really hungover, with the sense that there is some catastrophic event is going to happen......
I have a similar feeling. To me it is akin to the feeling after several beers the night before but also a rather potent curry and being at least ten minutes from a toilet.
-
Can do without the suspense in this one
So please like at Sunderland...up by 4 at Halftime!

Thanks for that. The laugh helped break the tension.

But still starting FFS
-
If Vlaar isn't fit, what's he doing starting the match?
Giving Okore a rest for 10 minutes or so.
-
Okore dropped for an unfit Vlaar? hmmm. Never the less come on Villa perform tonight and win please.
-
"Vlaar replacing Okore, sir? Bacuna at right back, instead of the right back on the bench, sir? Sanchez keeping his place, sir? Grealish up against Joey Barton, sir? Richardson at left back, sir? That's a brave decision."

Fucking strange.
-
Is anyone else shaking like a shitting puppy over this match?
Yes, it's ridiculous isn't it? We could lose this and still easily stay up yet it feels like it will be the end of the world if we lose. Imagine this place if we do.
-
If Vlaar isn't fit, what's he doing starting the match?
Indeed I don't want to overreact, but those sort of decisions are very worrying.
-
Let's hope we don't go behind because there is bugger all on the bench to change the game with

Ground looks pretty full apart from Lower Witton Lane beneath the Arse fans.
Hopefully the fans get behind the lads from the first minute.
Come you Villa boys!

Is a point a disaster ?

Vlaar hoofing it up to Benteke.
-
Is anyone else shaking like a shitting puppy over this match?
That's the one phrase that I always associate with you!
-
Is a point a disaster ?
Not in the sense that zero points would be a bigger disaster, but we've just got to start winning more games, and there aren't any which look more winnable than this one.
-
CB looks up for it

This club, heh, this club ....

He does. Good start from us.
-
evening all. good start

I'm glad Benteke was offside there, because if he'd missed that I would have gone mental.
-
If Vlaar isn't fit, what's he doing starting the match?
Indeed I don't want to overreact, but those sort of decisions are very worrying.
Shall we have a sweep on how many minutes Vlaar lasts? I'll go for 40.
-
Cock
-
Fuck
-
Good one Bacuna you fucking idiot.
-
God, how I long for the days of a routine 1-0 win and see out a game without any fuss or drama.
-
Oh ffs
-
Bollox! Shit header from Bacuna giving them the ball back.
-
What a fucking disaster.
-
Oh for fuck's sake. That's on Bacuna, that is. Nice header across the box, idiot.
-
Good one Bacuna you fucking idiot.
Everyone on defence was just plain idiotic there. what they hell were they doing?
-
Could see that coming as soon as bacuna fucked it up
Come on villa FFS
-
Pathetic defending
-
Typical, Barton offside as well
-
Rubbish defending
-
Vlaar is not only injury prone, he's absolute fucking Blues when he is fit.
-
Amazing stuff.
#fightlikegirls
-
Good one Bacuna you fucking idiot.
Everyone on defence was just plain idiotic there. what they hell were they doing?
Heading the ball back across the box did it. Fucking wake up Villa.
-
fuck
-
Bacuna......... 2 big mistakes 2 big goals
-
Fuck sake man.
Must win. Wake the fuck up Villa.
-
Thank fuck
-
Lovely, what a start, only we could manage it. Looking forward already to my Brighton trip next season
But as I type, BENTEKE scores!!!!!
-
Yessssss
-
Get the mother fucking fuck in
-
BENTEKEEEE
-
1-1
-
Benteke 1-1. Thank fook.
-
YESSS GET THE FUCK IN BIG MAN
-
FUCKING GET IN BENTEKE
-
You beauty, Benteke!!!!!
-
Get the fuck in!!!!!!!!!
-
Get the fuck in!!!!! needed a quick response. Now fucking turn up Villa.
-
How many points have we got this season by coming back from a goal down? Three? (Leicester?)
Let's step up here Grealish
Get in there benteke!!! Looked a bit offside to me
-
The man is going to save us. Thank fuck for him being on our side.
-
thank fuck! get vlaar off hes shite!
-
Thank god, how often do we ever come back quickly from conceding the first goal...feeling slightly less sick now and off back to my bath and the radio
-
Benteke is on it.
-
The man is going to save us. Thank fuck for him being on our side.
He's playing for a move perhaps?
-
Sounds like Benteke on top of this QPR defence?
-
The man is going to save us. Thank fuck for him being on our side.
He's playing for a move perhaps?
If he's good enough to move up from the Villa, he's good enough to save us from relegation.
-
Grealish is looking confident
We look completely at sea when the ball's in our box. We need to get a grip here.
-
Vlaar is fucking shit. Can't wait til he leaves, absolute fucking gash.
-
Cleverley, Vlaar and Grealish all fucked up there. Sort it out.
-
The man is going to save us. Thank fuck for him being on our side.
He's playing for a move perhaps?
Right now all that matters is we stay up. If we pick up £30m in the summer for him then fine as long as we are a PL club heading into the new season.
-
Vlaar playing like a cart horse
-
The man is going to save us. Thank fuck for him being on our side.
He's playing for a move perhaps?
If he's good enough to move up from the Villa, he's good enough to save us from relegation.
One things for sure, the big man is better than 4 relegation battles in a row.
-
FFS can we please just keep the ball at their end...its a henhouse when we play in ours
-
Oh Grealish!
-
Vlaar is absolute bobbins, he can piss off wherever he likes come May.
-
Had to score there Jack
-
Sanchez needs to get on his game.
-
Brilliant flick on from Gabby to Benteke.
-
Oh Jack....
-
Grealish you've got to score there.
-
We're going to score again. It's a case of whether or not we can stop them.
-
I think that was hard for Grealish. He's doing well.
-
Sanchez needs to get on his game.
He's bobbins
-
Grealish should have lifted that one. He's doing very well though
We do look like we've got goals in us. At both ends unfortunately!!
-
We need to actually score again though.
-
I wouldn't be even remotely surprised if this ended 3-3
-
Deliberate handball. No card. What the fuck?
-
I wouldn't be even remotely surprised if this ended 3-3
Me neither. And 10 men each
-
Vlaar playing like a cart horse
Thats because he is one. Until he puts an orange shirt on and looks like a thoroughbred. In terms of what hes done for us he must surely be one of our most over rated players ever.
-
Bloody hell Grealish needs to hit his corners. Also I have a horrible feeling we're going to pay if we keep missing these chances.
-
Why do so many of our corners dribble along the turf to the first defender? My u13 girls team take better corners than Villa.
-
Son and daughter still queueing outside for tickets !!
-
Woeful corner. Just for a change.
-
Fucking shit set pieces again
-
Grealish isn't a corner taker
-
FFS get Grealish off corners
-
Bacuna in acres of space there!
-
Hmm, close.
-
Woeful corner. Just for a change.
Set pieces have consistently gash once Downing fucked off. They were really good for the most part under Barry and Young. Oh for a corner like Stan Staunton...
-
Terrible corner again, but that had to be a free-kick or a pen.
-
Grealish needs to get off these corners
-
Woeful corner. Just for a change.
Set pieces have consistently gash once Downing fucked off. They were really good for the most part under Barry and Young. Oh for a corner like Stan Staunton...
And someone to attack them like Laursen.
-
Woeful corner. Just for a change.

Saw Staunton score direct from a corner at one game.
-
Get Grealish off the f***g corners !
-
We're a much better team than these.
-
Last 4 posts criticise (when I posted).
I'm listening to the radio who've had nothing but praise for us.

Listening in on WM from work, this is not good for my blood pressure!

twice in fact, Wimbledon away and then palace at home the following season
-
Get bacuna on the corners!!
-
Grealish needs to get off these corners
They're probably protecting him because he;s too light weight in the box at set pieces , but his corners are terrible
-
We are going to regret this, fucking come on Villa.
-
Grealish's corners have been awful, but at least there is variety in their awfulness - some hit the first man, some too long etc - unlike the usual "floated in pointlessness"
-
certainly having a lot of corners and attempts. we have to start burying these.
-
It sounds like Rangers are hanging on, a goal before half time would hopefully see their heads drop, come on Villa

Big Ben's Goal

-
We are well on top.
QPR are showing why they are where they are.
We have got to make this count while we are controlling things, though.
-
We need two more goals as they'll score at least another with our defence weakness
-
Agree Paulie we're well on top and we really need to take our chances.

Great goal
-
Brilliant finish Benteke! and great advantage by the ref. The QPR player should be booked.
-
What a brilliant fucking finish!!! Benteke!!!
-
Yessssss!!!!!!
-
Benteke!!!!!
I thought he'd slowed that down much too much
-
And send that c*** off who chopped Gabby in two
-
The coolest of finishes but fair play to Sanchez who's tackle made that.
-
Come on big Chris a few more please.
-
I love you CB. I am perfectly happy to say that. Did I ever mention that we share the same birthday?
-
Dumb and Dumber won't have liked that Sanchez tackle.
Gabby and Benteke are bloody brilliant tonight.
-
thank fuck.
-
Big challenge from Sanchez in there.
-
I love Benteke. I love him really quite a lot.
Great tacklepass by Sanchez too. And was what's-his-name booked for that foul on Gabby? Because that was a scandal.
-
Quality.
-
That's got to be a booking too.
-
Cracking goal
Villa of old
-

thanks, Chris. You haven't got the second as well...?
-
Hat-trick for the big man anyone?
-
Tekkers you lad
-
Sanchez is growing into this.
-
I like Benteke.
-
Nearly shouted the house down from the bath when that goal went in. Daughter's boyfriend who 'supports' (his uncle is from Manchester dontcha know, aren't they always) Man Utd had just arrived so even sweeter
-
CB looks up for it
Not liking to quote myself but .......
-
Need to score more here.
-
Benteke looks world class again. First time in a long time.
-
Let's get another while we're on top here
Benteke is just owning them
-
Don't commit too many forward now. We're winning.

We're much better, but we need more goals.
-
That pass by Cleverely to Bacuna then was pinpoint. Great cross too by Bacuna after.
-
I love you CB. I am perfectly happy to say that. Did I ever mention that we share the same birthday?
I saw him first.
No way. You can have my sloppy seconds Jon. Sorry that's the best I can offer.
-
The crowd sound in fine voice on the radio.
-
Bloody hell slothchez

Grealish been like Samuel Jacksson in this half...featuring in everything!

Did you think that all up by yourself?
-
Bacuna is basically doing whatever he likes down that side.
-
Bacuna is basically doing whatever he likes down that side.
He needs to do it better
-
Bacuna has been very good again. Grealish still looks raw but he so good at drifting away from tackles.
-
One in front is not enough especially with our stoppage time death wish
-
Grealish reminds me of Steve Froggatt. Lots of potential there I think.
-
Caulker is lucky there, but fucking shocking pass from Delph.
-
CONCENTRATE
-
Bacuna is a liability defensively.
-
Bloody hell slothchez
Did you think that all up by yourself?
This is a man who worships Darren Bent criticising another player for being too lethargic.
-
Bloody hell slothchez
Aren't you at the game?
-
Close the half out villa
-
Bloody hell slothchez
Aren't you at the game?
Not tonight.
-
Who is that moron you can hear yelling "Defense! Defence!" when we got the ball... Lambert?
-
Bloody hell slothchez
Did you think that all up by yourself?
This is a man who worships Darren Bent criticising another player for being too lethargic.
He's right though. Sanchez is too slow of thought and deed to make it in the Premier League in my opinion.
-
Phew. Excellent come back.
-
Good that we're winning, but we need to make the most of our dominance in the second half or we'll throw this away. Bacuna needs to sort his defending out.
-
Solid first half. Need to get a third now and finish this lot off. It was all us in the end but we need to wrap this up. The longer it goes at 2-1 the more nervous everyone will get.
-
Some great stuff that half. We are a much better side and should win by a couple of goals if we can stop the ridiculous defensive fuck ups (Bacuna). They won't score another goal unless we gift them one.
Benteke is back to his best.
-
Grealish looks a proper footballer too.
-
Only one in front with 5 minutes left with our record it's going to be a draw
-
Good character shown but we need a 3rd
-
All considered, that was a very entertaining first half. I knew QPR were poor on their left side but never imagined they'd actually vacated the area. The amount of space Bacuna has in unbelieveable.
Great to see our two strikers looking so up for it.
-
We need a couple more goals.
-
When we're on it we are bloody marvellous.
When we're mediocre we're bloody awful.
-
Grealish is starting to look more confident carrying the ball, which is really great.
-
Pretty good so far. Neither side can defend really but they look more suspect. Their midfield is very cumbersome.
I think we should be winning this one. There's more goals to come. Hopefully by us.
Benteke has played with aggression and he's committed defenders and run at them. It's exactly what we want to see from the big man. When he plays like this he's unstoppable.
Gabby's looked lively today too. Utd aside, Gabby's been in decent form since TS got here. I think there's a goal for Gabby tonight.
Grealish has impressed me. He plays with a bit of nous. It's good to see him getting a start and he's influencing the game. We should have seen more of him over the season to be honest. Exactly the type of player we often seem to be lacking in. His head is always up. He's a clever player.
I'd like to see us put them to the sword second half. Come out quickly. Hit another couple of goals. We'll probably concede another ourselves. Richardson is getting murdered.
-
We need to score two more to finish this.
-
We need a couple more goals.
Agree.
-
I would love a hatful of goals in the second half for us to help with our goal difference.
-
Have not watched game but going by comments on this and other sources bacuna is playing well but shite in defence again surely the logic is to play him right midfield when Hutton is fit??
-
Need another goal but they are clearly there for taking on the counter.Bacuna getting alot of space as they have Kjancer and Hill on that side and neither are suited there.Bacuna just needs to keep attacking Hill at pace.
We ourselves still look suspect at the back so I would be suprised if we don't give them a few chances yet and with Austin one chance might just be enough for them.
Overall this is much more like it
-
Watching Benteke's second again, what a thing of beauty. He had Hill spinning like he'd been caught up in a hurricane and leaves Green standing their like a lampost. He just makes it look all so simple.
-
Massive 45 mins now . Come on lads
-
Anyone else shaking like a shitting dog at the prospect of our bad half coming up?
-
I think Sanchez is doing well
Bacuna looks great coming onto the ball. It's when he's in midfield and having to receive it in tighter situations that he has struggled to date
-
Huge half this we need to finish them quickly.
-
Anyone else shaking like a shitting dog at the prospect of our bad half coming up?
Stop it!
-
Come on Villa, please win this game.
2 more goals required in my opinion.

Top man!
-
How many goals has Benteke got now for the season?
-
You'd have to think QPR will change things in midfield. Krankjar is giving bacuna all the time in the world and we've constantly got a man free in the middle too. Either grealish or cleverley
Come on villa! Get the next one and it's surely game over
-
How many goals has Benteke got now for the season?
9 I think. 8 in the league for sure.

We've got to take these fucking chances.

Bacuna yet again, he is an awful defender

Bucuna left him.

Fuckety fuck villa
We should be three ahead here

and there you go. It was going to happen, because we've been so fucking wasteful. Criminal defending again.

Fucking corner

shit. Pick yourselves up villa and go at them now

Awful defending what was Richardson doing

They deserve the square route of fuck all from this game.

It is now.
-
Fuck off
-
we cant defend for toffee
-
Lowton back in left back please
-
Fucking hell Clark that's pathetic. We're in big trouble now.
-
That should be a red.
-
He should be off, Austin
He should have been booked in the first half
-
That's a red. Horrible tackle
-
That should be a red
-
That looks a red to me.
-
How's that not red ???
-
Our defending is woeful. Track the runner - schoolboy stuff.
-
We're going to lose this now, our incisiveness has gone.
-
Come on villa
-
Grealish is playing brilliantly now
Come on villa!
-
Benteke's in trouble here, he's hardly moving.
-
Don't think my blood pressure can take much more.
-
We're losing the midfield battle now.
-
It's fucking going their way now. Fucking do something Villa, we've been terrible this half.
-
We need a spark. They are controlling this more and more.
-
I was pretty impressed with Sanchez initially, but I'm really not sure of him at the moment. His passing is frequently shite.
-
Wtf was that
-
Sloppy defending again villa. It's gonna cost us
Come on villa please!!
-
You need to do something Sherwood we're losing this.
-
If we can't find an answer to Karl fuckin Henry it'll be disappointing.
-
They're the better team now. This has been a shocking half.
-
We need a spark. They are controlling this more and more.
They've switched to 352 which means in the areas that matter we're 2 v 3 and getting dicked because of it.
-
Terrible by Vlaar and they've got more energy than us. We need to change this game now.
-
Sanchez is playing well I don't see what people are on about
It's the wing backs who are gonna cause us problems
Some poor reffing decisions today
-
We need a spark. They are controlling this more and more.
Gil?
-
So frustrating.
-
We need a spark. They are controlling this more and more.
They've switched to 352 which means in the areas that matter we're 2 v 3 and getting dicked because of it.
Yup. Getting out-tictac-ed by Ramsey.
-
We need a spark. They are controlling this more and more.
Gil?
Cole
-
If we can't find an answer to Karl fuckin Henry it'll be disappointing.
I bring you Joe Cole in answer to your prayers...
-
Sanchez for me is too weak on the ball and I've lost all faith in Guzan.
-
We're running out of ideas here
Cole for . . Grealish I inagine?
-
I get the feeling Weimann will be on soon. its inevitable.
-
We need a spark. They are controlling this more and more.
Gil?
Cole by the looks of it.
-
Just don't lose this Villa.
-
At least Ramsey be on our coaching team next season
-
Oh Jesus, should have taken our first half chances.
-
I would rather see Gil coming on than Cole by quite a distance. And Grealish has done nothing to deserve going off. Oh well, let's see.
-
Cole for Grealish is probably right. Grealish has been pretty poor this half. We really badly need a spark.
-
Velour at the back for us according to Withey
-
If have brought nzogbia on. They've struggled against pace
-
Why is our crossing so consistently shit.
-
Joe Cole you owe us a big performance.
-
Richardson has been fucking atrocious.
-
Hopeless Richardson, could have given another goal away then. Twat.
-
The passing at times. Ffs
-
Richardson is a terrible player.
-
If have brought nzogbia on. They've struggled against pace
Definitely.
-
Not liking this 2nd so far one bit.
-
We've been fucking atrocious this half.
-
Duck sake get Richardson off
-
Sanchez gives the ball away every single time he gets it.
-
Richardson has been fucking atrocious.
His whole career??
-
Fucking hell, Sanchez now, are they actively trying to lose the game?
-
Richardson, Cole, Senderos a fucking clueless summer of shit business.
-
How are we not winning?!?! QPR are shit!!!
-
We will lose this if we don't massively up our performance. They're on top now.
-
ok now I feel nervous
-
No surprise Lowton on for Bacuna.
-
QPR in control now
-
Lowton for Bacuna.
-
Richardson, Cole, Senderos a fucking clueless summer of shit business.
Not sure what Senderos has done wrong?
-
Duck sake get Richardson off
quack
-
Lowton on for Bacuna.
Will he change formation to get us back in the game in midfield?
-
Sanchez gives the ball away every single time he gets it.
Too many crap players I'm afraid
-
We're on the back foot now a little
One more big chance villa
-
This half has been pathetic.
-
Joe Cole, hands on hips!
-
Richardson, Cole, Senderos a fucking clueless summer of shit business.
Not sure what Senderos has done wrong?
Not been fit, for months, waste of time and wages.
-
This is a truly awful performance from what I have seen.
-
We're struggling
We need to win but we absolutely cannot lose this
-
BOLLOX
-
Crowd 33,708 low for a game like this
-
Joe Cole is absolutely blowing out of his arse already
-
We are totally fucked
-
we are down
-
fuck no
No No NO
-
...
-
Fuck off
-
We're fucked.
-
Unbelievable
-
And there we go, now where is my guide to the Championship, I had it out earlier?
-
Heading for the Championship with no guts at all. Sherwood? Shite!
-
Ohhhhh dear.
-
And there you go. Fuck off. It's been coming and everyone could see it.
-
Load of fucking shit
-
Three fuckiNg goals conceded at home against QPR. Atrocious.
-
We're down
-
Kieran Richardson has pretty much cost us our place in the league single handedly
Absolutely ridiculous
-
That'll be the Chalie Austin who should've been sent off 20 mins ago.
Shit defending yet again. Shit.
Fuck off.
-
Fucking awful defending.
-
Richardson ******
-
Villa are fucked
-
fucking hell how can they be so shit
-
I just don't believe this
-
Un-fucking real. We really are own worst enemies.
-
We're struggling
We need to win but we absolutely cannot lose this
Oh yes we can!
-
KIERAN RICHARDSON IS A JOKE.
-
Richardson's been shocking all game and Sherwood has done fuck all.
-
Richardson, again. The useless ****** has cost the Premier League tonight.
-
Get fucking Richardson out of this team now
-
We are fucked
-
I'm not saying we are going down but fuck me we are not good enough.
-
Christ
-
Our whole back 4 selection just baffles me. It was a crazy selection.
-
Kieran Richardson has pretty much cost us our place in the league single handedly
Absolutely ridiculous
Awful player, thick as a plank too
-
Whoever said it might end up 3-3, I'll bit your hand off for that right now
-
Well I guess we've just found out who was the brains behind his form at Spurs.
-
Shit defending.
-
Bolton game all over again. The difference is we are gone this season.
How many times do we need Richardson done by Phillips to not do something about it.
Sherwod has been comprehensively out thought by Ramsey.
-
Letting in three goals at home to this lot is disgusting. We deserve to go down.
-
Yes we deserve to be relegated. Tim Sherwood was zero in team selection, tactics and subs.
-
We were so in control of this game until they brought that ex-Wolves twat on. Shocking.
-
Just too many shit players. And Richardson and Sanchez, I specifically mean you pair of wasters.
-
away fans celebrating at villa park again. sickening.
-
Weak defending for their third. Come on Villa!
-
And another substitution that's just shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic.
-
We are gone
-
The only team I can see scoring isn't us.
-
I think we might be done for this season.
-
The QPR switch to 352 has killed us and IT WAS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS. You do not play a diamond against 352. Ever.
Right come on villa let's smack this fucker in
-
Richardson again, great attacking position and nothing.
We are buggered. Someone please fucking tell me why he was brought in for Lowton tonight?
-
I think we might be done for this season.
You'd almost have to say it's a bloody relief, I am sick and tired of this. And we equalise!
-
Just too many shit players. And Richardson and Sanchez, I specifically mean you pair of wasters.
Both are a liability
-
Rubbish side. Rookie manager. Terrible chairman. It's not Premier league. We are probably one of the 3 worst in the Division. We've stank it out. Fuck off the lot of them.
-
Now fucking win it
-
We were so in control of this game until they brought that ex-Wolves twat on. Shocking.
More like when they changed fotmation, and we did not respond, and still haven't.
-
YESS!!! FUCK YES!
-
Hatrick Benteke
-
never in doubt
-
Yessssss
-
GET THE FIUCK INN BBIIIGG MANNNNN
LETS FUCKING DO THESE NOW
-
fuck me. Cometh the hour.
-
Holy fuck Benteke. Holy fuck.
-
FUCKING AMAZINGGGGG
-
He's the man
-
Get the fuck in. Thank Christ for big Ben! Now win the fucking game.
-
YEEEEEEESSSSSSS
right now at least don't fucking lose it villa
He must be livid at playing with this defence
-
Benteke you bastard
Love you
-
NOW DON'T FUCKING LOSE!
-
Come on!
-
Don't fucking lose it now
-
The QPR switch to 352 has killed us and IT WAS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS. You do not play a diamond against 352. Ever.
Right come on villa let's smack this fucker in
You were saying.
-
Let's go and fucking win this. He might just have fucking saved us.
-
blimey.
-
Win the fucking game Villa.
-
Fucking Benteke!! One man team. You cockney bastards.
-
Have we got any legs we can get on in front of Richardson to give him some fucking help?
-
This is mental. May as well go for it now, Villa!
-
Gabby needs to do more
-
Where does a draw leave us? We still have a tough run of games.
-
A bit harsh to blame Sherwood, we've been getting to this point for at least two seasons. As far I'm im concerned this is all Lamberts doing, his team, his players.
He should have been sacked in December to give Sherwood time to add and replace.
-
Can we have a fourth please Mr Benteke.
-
Surely going flat with NZogbia in front of Richardson now would be better?
-
Can we have a fourth please Mr Benteke.
Please
-
out of jail for now.
-
First game I've missed all season, I know how to pick them.
-
Have we got any legs we can get on in front of Richardson to give him some fucking help?
Not whilst we're playing a diamond 442
-
I don't think we are lowest prem scorers now are we?
-
Can barely hear the crowd on the radio. Roar 'em on to fuck.
-
We need to stop the diamond as it is clearly now defunct
-
The QPR switch to 352 has killed us and IT WAS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS. You do not play a diamond against 352. Ever.
Yep. That's another thing. Sherwood needed to react to their change to 3-5-2 much quicker. 3-5-2 always beats a 4-4-2 diamond.
-
That was a chance

Doesn't absolve him of continuing to play a diamond 442 against their 352 after Ramsey made his first change.
-
I'd have literally cum in my pants if that had gone in
Ref you fucking moron
-

Right come on villa let's smack this fucker in
You were saying.
Well he is right in that 3-5-2 is paper to the stone of 4-4-2 diamond. Have missed the last two goals, but it's possible that two utter turd on a stick defences outweigh tactics sometimes?
-

Playing the diamond against Pulis' 3-5-2 gave us near-total dominance. 4-5-1/4-3-3 is the system which gives you the most advantages against the diamond, I think.
-
Which was idiotic. As was not giving Richardson cover after the first time Phillips skinned him.
-
4 mins left
-
We're not boring anymore

Completely agree about the formations.
Just congratulating his foresight.

COME ON VILLA

Long time since I've been so nervous end of a Villa game.
-
If we had Messi and Ronaldo in the team we would lose 10-9.

West brom played a narrow 442 in the first game.
-
please god win this villa

Joe Cole's been better than Grealish.

Superb free kick.

I'll give the Devil half my soul if we can sneak this please.

Last chance

They switched to it after they saw our team, IIRC. Would need to go back over that though.

Depends. Ramsey has used a very narrow version as starting point so it's been almost 2v5 at times. Almost been Barcelona like in 2 or 3 chasing down in that central zone = no time on the ball.
-
Christ of gabby hadnt been given that foul we'd have been in a lot of trouble
-
Poor result overall but I'm delighted with one point as opposed to zero. Benteke is a complete hero
-
Fuck me, I've aged 15 years!

This is QPR. They're shit. Shouldn't matter what formation they play. We shouldn't have to chane to suit them.
-
Without Benteke we'd be going down
