Manchester United v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[olaftab]

Well we came we expected we received. This man has reduced us to a Small Heath in Claret and Blue.

Yes Fergie McLeish is doing a fabulous job at Villa.

Is there any hope?

[Rigadon]

Doesn't get any better the more you watch it does it?

Anybody heard any post match Mcleish reaction yet ?
No doubt it will be the usual garbage we are used to, just like the garbage we are used to having served up on the pitch week in week out.

Just heard him on GOLD on how it wasn't a penalty, how proud he is of the kids, how he thought we did OK against a far superior team, how he thinks we will get 6 points from our remaining fixtures, how he zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

This season has been an acceptance of apathy. Can anyone recall another Villa manager that never had his name sung once during his tenure?

[the weatherman]

this quote hits home the reality of the situation:

Villa remain in trouble, six points clear of third-bottom Bolton, who have a game in hand and must also visit Villa Park.

Has he done the decent thing yet? It could, realistically, have been 7 or 8 today we were that poor.

Nzogbia was coming into form a few games ago, and then was injured and now dropped for some reason. We have not attacking threat apart from Weiman, who should be playing down the middle, Gabby is in the poorest run of form I have seen from him, and considering he is a peaks and troughs type, that is saying something.

I understand that it was men and boys today with the amount of kids in the side, but there were options of senior players, Heskey, Cuellar, NZogbia sat on the bench could have started for some of the younger ones, so he can't hide behind it as an excuse. There is no pattern to our forward play at all, and Dean Sturridge on Sky the other day against Stoke said that we don't seem to have any real focused manner about our attack, no set ideas or thoughts of how to get forward. He is spot on. There is no tactical organisation at all, from back to front. The least you can expect from kids is energy and enthusiasm, but there was no high tempo closing even?!

Just seen drogbas goal....fucking hell !!!

[Chipsticks]

At least United have finally replaced Cristiano Ronaldo with this detestable twat who goes down faster than Karren Brady.

[Fin Feds Dad]

Have to agree about Gabby. We started with 7 home grown players on the pitch - Gabby has more experience than the other six put together and has the captains armband. He more than anybody should be leading these kids by example.

Captain gabby was first off the pitch without acknowledging the travelling support
He is not worth a shirt - hasn't been for months

Im my time time possibly Dick Taylor and Tommy Cummings. But then again, its a long time ago and I was only a kid.

[Summers]

Fucking furious.

Ashley Young is a classless ****** who has no respect for the football club that got him where he is today.

Alex McLeish is a clueless, dim witted, buffoon who is destroying the heart and soul of our football club. We're not safe, he took Blues down from a "better position" than this. People, our fucking board including, need to wake up and realize how shit things are right now.

We were shit. We played shit, he looked shit. As usual. Talented football players played out of position and told to defend our box for 90 minutes. Fantastic tactics.

I HATE McLeish. I loathe him. He needs to get the fuck out of our beautiful club, now.

[Risso]

I HATE McLeish. I loathe him. He needs to get the fuck out of our beautiful club, now.

Well said.  The mere sight of him in our dug out makes me furious.

[VillaAlways]

I hate Randy more, at this time to be honest He's more spineless than McLeish
