Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur Match Thread

Sounds like are getting a bit more composed.  More Frank Spencer than Norman Wisdom.

Excellent analysis.

KEA is a dirty bastard. I don't want him in my team.

To be fair, I think he's just miles off the pace.

That's reason enough not to play. I've counted 3 bad tackles. If he was an opposition player we would be calling him all kinds of names.

[DrGonzo]

Anybody seen our midfield?

[hilts_coolerking]

Is Van der Vaart still at Spurs?

No, I think he went back to Germany.

Ta.  Good for us.  Looks like Spurs miss him and Modric rather badly.

Strangely (for a team that let in eight) it's not the defence that's the problem as far as I can see, and with Vlaar in place of Herd I reckon that'll be alright, with Lowtn in particular and Bennett too getting better with time.

It's the midfield, and I swear I've been saying that about Villa for the last ten years! We just never seem to get the balance of power and panache that you need.

No not Baker injured. Please god.

I think they're doing a bit of shopping in the sale.

We never replaced Ian Taylor, that's our problem.

14 corners to Villa's nil, says it ll so far

[PaulWinch again]

We're getting battered because Westwood apart our midfield is fucking useless.

[PaulWinch again]

Benteke really needs to learn the offside rule.

Lets nick a goal before half time... or is that being silly?

[Whiney MacWhineface]

I'm watching this with a thousand yard stare

**snigger**

Highlight of the half.

Perhaps instead of lobbing confetti and streamers we should have used mustard gas?

[Rigadon]

Baker off, Ireland on.

[citizenDJ]

Baker off injured.....Ireland on.
