Not the worst result, but fuck me it feels like a defeat.

So fucking frustrating. Holman and Bannan cost us the game for me.

Awful subsitutions.

I suppose the momentum of the game had shifted but we were still looking like we could get a third. That disintegrated when the subs were made, Holman and Bannan too weak.

That aside we're not very good at winning games are? Still can't win after our best 45 minutes of the season. We need 5 wins from somewhere.

And 4 points thrown away recently because we can't defend. Unless he was injured taking Zog off was insanity.

Lambert cost us the game with that stupid substitution, unless N'Zogbia is injured.

Not good enough Lambert. Cannot believe how vulnerable we are being 2 up. Times ticking Randy....

Poor substitution again from lambert - defence all over the place again at set pieces , draws will not keep us up, 2 points dropped here tonight , nzogbia and gabby both a real threat but a deeply disappointing result after the first half.

I have no idea what Holman does other than run around a lot.

He's like James Milner without all the good things.

A lot of positives from that. Standard stuff in the 2nd half though. At least it's something to build on.

I'd have taken a draw before the game, but the manner of it was just horrible.

It seemed inevitable as soon as they got one. The second half was just like knowing you're going to be kicked in the bollocks, but being forced to stand in a queue for 40 minutes until it's your turn.

Bannan and Holman being on the pitch is the reason we lost control of the game, they contributed fuck all, and left midfield completely open for Albion to do as they pleased. May as well have played with 9 players.

That's the way Villa do business. Been the same for ages, a two-nil lead is never enough. A point, but not really enough in these desperate times.

Would have settled for that before kick off, wouldn't have settled for that at half time.  Some bright spots, Gabby, CN'Z, Benteke.
