I really don't get how a team can go from putting in such a great performance against Chelsea and then play like utter dross today

I take it you've not followed us for long?

Another of our defensive liabilities, Dunne, in the book.

Why? Because it's a lot easier to defend deep and counter-attack than take the game to a team that are better at keeping possession than us.

Not fit enough and too full of over confidence, plus out thought by their manager over McLoose

He tries to protest his innocence after pushing him right in front of the ref? What a twat.

Swansea pass the ball really nicely.
I dread to think what they'd have done with Sinclair playing too.

Their manager has done a great job.

No one has any idea what Dyer said to him. The fact Dyer walks towards him mouthing off and squaring upto Dunne is bad enough, but we don't know what was said.

Sorry but Dyer deserved a booking too. Clearly went to antogonise Dunne more, got in his face etc. Horrible

That is a fucking disgrace and a stark reminder to everyone that McLeish is really not the man for the Villa job. Never was, never will be.
