Can't believe that saints fans view us as also rans.we have brought in Norwich city's ex managerwe have bought Norwich City type playerswe will get Norwich City type resultsim struggling to find why we are so disappointed with todays resultmany more to come while we compete for a place from 12-15We were poor no doubt about it, but it's one game let's not go nuts.

To all the doomdayers out there... We've lost 3 out of 5 yet we are level on points with Stoke and Sunderland who have lost one game between them.
Just back. My first viewing of the new Villa and right now I couldn't care if it is my last. What a waste of a Saturday and about £50. Still, I suppose, as we have said, there are going to be days like these along the way to brighter ones ahead. Easier to say what was decent as it won't take very long. Vlaar was good, Ireland had an excellent first half after a sluggish start and Holman certainly gets around the pitch if often in headless chicken mode. The rest were awful and not worthy of wasting any more time than I have already today in commenting upon them...
TV represented it well then, it just looked all over the shop to be honest. As I say I'm not too despondent as I think it's very much a work in progress, the main disappointment was that we resorted to long ball(which did not work at all) and our pressing stopped in the second half.

I still think it stemmed from Clark and Bannan constantly trying to hoof it to Benteke, it made us really disjointed.

That does not mean it is not going to be a really tough season.My real concern is that the Midfield looks incredibly light weight.Spot on. Lambert claims Ireland has been playing well, he hasn't. Bannan ain't good enough and KEA looked slow against Swansea. Midfield is a real worry. The Swansea won was massive as it has given Lambert time. Given him time? Presumably you would've wanted him sacked then if we hadn't of won that?No. Big 3 points against a fellow struggler. Means we are not in the bottom 3 so less pressure.*bangs ahead against wall*Swansea? Fellow strugglers?So much nonsense being posted on here this evening. I'm off. Bye
