Foster, Ridgewell, Johnson, Dann, Carr, Ferguson, Bowyer, Larson, Gardner, Zigic, Fahey, Jerome, Beausejour. How many if any (Foster) would you start or even have in the Villa squad? He has started with a much better squad. Due to his negative and narrow tactics, we are where we are. It was summed up last night. For once Zog gets to the byline, pulls the ball back, result is a goal. More of the same please, but no - he takes off Albrighton and puts him in the middle.i agree totaly gingers fault

My first post on here.I've been meaning to get this off my chest for weeks and after last night's shambles now seems to be the right time.I think the players have been lucky that we have the worst manager in years currently in charge.I get the feeling that they know that the manager will catch all the flack for shit performances and they get off by appearing in the press with all the usual bollocks such as "We know what we need to do" and phrases on twitter like " 3 points today lads", before either another draw or loss.I'm Villa for life wherever we end up at the end of the season, the same can't be said for some of our players,I'm sure.
Our relegation fight is a symptom of bad ownership but the immediate reason for this squad's level of underachievement is the manager.
