We have an unbelievable amount of time and space in midfield.

Playing ok. Gabby needs to learn how to move from Bent.

How Ireland was left out the last 2 is beyond me. Best footballer we have.

I think you've answered your own question there Ozz!

we're too narrow again, has picked the right team but albrighton and nzogbia are on the wrong sides of the pitch, means we're dragging the defenders towards ireland and leaving him with no space.

Plenty of possesson thus far. Blackburn look poor.
They are shit not much better than Wigan.  We really need to something out of this.

Pretty impressive stuff so far, albeit without really testing their 'keeper. Much better than last time out, though.

Why the fuck are the 2 wingers on the opposite sides to their natural?

On the evidence so far, this is a must win game. We are not going to play a poorer side I wouldn't have thought.

Getting plenty of possession and passing it round quite well. Think we could win this

It's a good stream, not withstanding it sounds like the nasal tones of Trevor Francis comentating.

gotta love first row sports apart fro the fact they have a blue nose commentating! Francis is nearly as biased as Alan Smith! Come on Villa!

We started the Wolves game like this though. Then they murdered us for 45 minutes before Keane decided enough was enough.
