Aston Villa v Norwich City Post-Match Thread

[kippaxvilla2]

Must admit, I wouldn't be adverse to having Warnock as an option in midfield right now.

Has it really come to this.  Bloody hell.  People calling for Warnock and Hutton.  We'll be getting dewy-eyed about the tumbling bear soon.

But either of those are  better options that what we are currently putting out on the pitch.  Unfortunately, horrible to say, but true.

[E I Adio]

According to Hansen we were "embarrassing" while Norwich were "excellent". This would be the excellent Norwich that created the same amount of decent chances as us (a whopping one) when it was 11 v 11 for nearly an hour. The reality is both were crap until the sending off.

We were embarrassing and Norwich were excellent in everything they did in two-thirds of the pitch. Their attacking was like our midfield, shite. Loved seeing Holt's shot hitting the the corner flag.

Hansen was spot on. We were an embarrassment. Norwich, yes Norwich City played us off the park at Villa Park. Some people need to stop deluding themselves. Our team of championship/cheap foreign imports/youth team rubbish is relegation fodder. January can't come quick enough for us to make some serious panic signings.

I didn't see Hanson, but if that's what he said, then for once I wholeheartedly agree with him. We were embarrassing before and after the sending off.

I think there is an element of denial going on in this thread.

1874  I can't disgaree with your opinion mate just think our forward (Benteke) as better than their fat lump (Holt) when it came to scoring

I don't think any sane person would disagree with you on that one mate.

[Witton Warrior]

Bentekke, Bent, Ireland, N'Zogbia, Guzan. Our only PL standard players. Three of them were on the bench.

We LITERALLY looked like a lower league team in a third round FA cup draw against Premiership opposition today.

I still think we would have won with 11 men though. Norwich are shit, we are shit but Benteke was the better forward

EI - where is the denial mate? We were shite, Norwich were shite, we had a player sent off and they equalised but couldn't win it.
I was there and saw the awfulness that is AVFC 2012...

I'm embarrassed when we give up on cup competitions before a ball is kicked. I'm embarrassed when we were giving up on matches last season the second we handed in the team sheet. I'm not embarrassed when we're playing crap and winning 1-0 against another side playing crap.

Like WW I was confident we'd win 11 vs 11.

I think we made Norwich look good to be honest, the only shite thing was their finishing, surely?

"confident" is a bit strong! ;-)

However I had the feeling we would get another before the sending off. Am surprised more has not been made of their goal - it seemed there was confusion when the corner was taken = what went on?

That was one shite thing ;-)

[PeterWithesShin]

Ok, quite confident then.

I still stand by no one thought that Holman was off so someone else had to be there to close down the short corner. An amateur mistake I hope they won't make again.

[1874]

And did anyone see the OS calling the result a 'battling draw'? Anybody would think we had drawn with Manure by their deluded rhetoric. Hansen is spot on, we are an embarresment in nearly every department FFS!
