Aston Villa v Sunderland Match Thread

Gyan on, oh no.

[pelty]

We looked good in the first half, but I have no idea what is going on in this half. Get a hold of the game, lads! And Gabby wide and Young in the middle is doing nothing for us. It might do to bring Albrighton on, maybe put Gabby up top, and Young out wide (Heskey off)?

[Fergal]

Call me foolhardy...or even an utter twat... but I have a strong feeling Emule is going to bury one of those chances tonight.

Given enough chances even Heskey will score with a random blast...

[supertom]

Late in. How we doing? Any decent streams?

Is that post meant to be in the conundrum thread?

It is why I'm late in...shame there's been nothing to cheer me up so far.

Come on Emile!!!

Well you're certainly an optimist.

[Risso]

Swop gabby and young over. Gabby is wasted out wide.

Why can everybody except Houllier see that?

[Fergal]

This has 0-0 written all over it (a blatant attempt to temp fate in our favour)

Yep...I guess it's the old 'room full of monkeys and a typewriter' thingy.

Gabby has been sent out to the wing because he has been a very a naughty boy.   Couldnt  leave the weights alone.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Somethings going to give.

Despite the misses, Heskey has been our best player.  Gabby is wasted out wide so may as well bring Albrighton on for him.

A pitch full of Heskeys, 50,000 balls and an open goal at either end...

I can live with that, too. People are being a bit harsh on Heskey as the ball caught him mid step and he had to adjust to even get a foot on it...

What was the point of that Ashley?

[Fergal]

Ash was never going to put that in... I feel like Mr Negative today.
