Aston Villa v Manchester City Post-Match Thread

[ormskirkvillan]

I thought we'd seen the back of this type of gutless, tactically inept, defensive rubbish.  At times I admire McLeish for having the guts to take the job and then for changing his tactics after the terrible results and performances against Spurs etc, however I've just seen him saying the game plan was correct and we are just suffering from bad luck.  If he really thinks this then we are doomed.  We are ASTON VILLA we are a proud club with a great history, what is happening is killing the fans and the club.  As Dwight just said on TV even the fans seem to be giving up.

Just shows how clueless he is after witnessing that interview.

When asked "should you have gone for it earlier" the response was "No, we would have been ripped apart!"

What a wanker. Or is he thinking about how goal difference is going to affect us now?

That interview was more ridiculous than Knut Kenny's yesterday.

We do have eyes Alex.

[hawkeye]

Unbelievable Mcleish just sad that "the game plan was excellent" and he went on to say that we were unlucky.

Stumped when asked how he was going tu turn it around.

I wanted him out before that interview but now!? By god please pleae leave! What a clueless tosser! Never hated a villa Manager this much and that includes pig face

[JUAN PABLO]

wait, did he really say he thought his game plan was excellent?

yess       Id sack him now for saying that

[Summers]

When asked "should you have gone for it earlier" the response was "No, we would have been ripped apart!"

..Did he honestly say that?

[Apyadg]

So, when's the next McLeish out protest?

[Somniloquism]

If the above quotes are true, I'm glad I turned over as I can't afford a new TV or a new cat.

[Toronto Villa]

Wow. I'm just watching the interview. The man is deluded. He honestly does not believe that strategically he is doing anything wrong. I'm lost for words because that is how is setting the team up. They clearly go out without any belief because the manager tells them to defend deep.

[goldenjimi]

Im stunned by that interview, how can he be happy with that today.  At least Dwight can see what is going on.  What another shocking day to be a Villa fan.

So, when's the next McLeish out protest?

Sign me up!

[Toronto Villa]

When asked "should you have gone for it earlier" the response was "No, we would have been ripped apart!"

Yep. Just watched it. It beggars belief.

[Nev]

He's a coward.
