This Ashley Young playing behind the striker just isn't working.  In fact, it hasn't worked all season.  Why can't Houllier just play 4-4-2 with Bent and Agbonlahor up front?

Agreed.
Yes again.

I'm not watching but I reckon we should get Bannan on.

Agreed, Bannan needs to be brought on now.

Yes. Bring him in from the bus and give him a jersey

54% possession to Villa according to BBC

Pity 0% of the goals scored

Anyone having problems with streams should pay a couple of quid for villa streams, it's well worth it.
Listen to the Bill. No buffering, watching Villastreams on laptop at fullscreen in HD. You riff-raff ought to invest and stop whingeing about crappy streams.

I refer the honourable gentleman to Mac's previous post.

Christ you could hear Gary Mac screaming at Makoun and Petrov there.

What an atmosphere. Electric.

It's a good job Les Sealey (RIP) doesn't play for Man United these days. That'd be embarassing

This is rubbish.  We've looked about as dangerous as the Swiss Navy.

Agreed.

I'm starting to think that its part of him stipulating where he will play if we want to keep him. But, if he wants to play in the hole he can sod off because he is rubbish there.

From what I've seen they are just sitting back and trying to unpick us on the counter.  We have had loads of possession but don't really look as though they believe they can get anything here.  Need to just go for it like Blackpool did last week.
