Aston Villa v Southampton Post-Match Thread

[Californian Villain]

FUCK OFF Lambert !

[MonsXI]

Good:
- Guzan
- Lowton
- Clark
- Baker
- Stephens
- Bannan
- N'Zogbia
- Westwood

Average:
- Weimann
- Gabby
- Bowery
- Holman

Poor:
- Benteke
- Delph

We weren't even that bad, we created plenty of chances but just couldn't take them. Our entire game plan is based around lumping it at Benteke, and that's fine when he's on form, but I'm starting to get worried about the amount of sitters he has missed recently, he had 3 or 4 great chances at Bradford and another 2 today.

Delph was possibly man of the match!

Anyone know where I can get 40,000 $ signs before next Tuesday?

Are you deluded?

Are you really saying that 8 of our players had a good game today? 10 manic minutes at the end of a game does not a good performance make.

If 8 players on our pitch today played well today we would have taken them to the cleaners.

[Ross]

Pat murphy on Five Live : Villa are 8 points worse off at this stage than under TSM. unbelievable.

[alan_clarke]

No chance he'll resign - how often does a manager resign these days.

[Tuscans]

Lambert is using what he has, unfortunately 6 or 7 players arent really all that good. Its out of the managers hand what players do in terms of making the right choices with a pass, a shot etc

[eastie]

If the owner has lost faith in the manager he will therefore  not give him money to spend - maybe today is the tipping point , we know randy has the money , I hope if he does replace lambert he gives any new man some money.

I don't want Lambert to go anywhere, we played well today I thought. No it wasn't enough but we just need a few players that is all.

He isn't a bad manager overnight.

Our finishing was awful today.

How many wins this season? No one is talking about overnight.

Yep this was definitely a bad day at the office. It won't happen again. We have been playing so well at the moment. We absolutley thrashed Chelsea, Tottenham, Wigan and Bradford. It just didn't quite happen for us today.

Indeed.

Enda Stevens had a nightmare. For almost an hour, everything they did came down that side, past him. When he did have the ball, he gave it away way too much.

If we're looking for praise, I'd say only Delph really deserved any.

[exigo]

We've given Southampton over a quarter of their entire points tally this season.

McLeish did better with, essentially, the same team.

[Tuscans]

Also Delph was great today.

Some people need to learn to think for themselves.

Ai mades some crucial tackles and some not bad over the top balls for Chris and Andi to latch on to.

You'd have to be as stupid as Kevin Keegan to quit when you can lose a few more games and retire off the millions you get for failing.
