West Bromwich Albion v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[nigel]

Can't believe the twatty remarks!!

[Lamb_Stockmix]

His subs didn't cost us the game. Delph and Baker were forced substitutions due to injury and Holman came on for Zog to sure it up and press. We should have been more than 3 goals up before Zog came off.

What cost us was not only shit defending at set pieces but a complete lack of a winning mentality. Again.

[mrfuse]

Regardless of who scored when ill take that

[NeilH]

IF Zog was injured then that was just bad luck. IF he wasn't, then Lambert is a prized bellend for that substitution.

[JUAN PABLO]

As soon as I knew Holman was coming on , I was thinking for who and why does Lambert not want the 3 pts.

[villan1975]

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

All three of his substitutions were the worst three players on the pitch. Thought Bennet played really well as did the front three and Vlaar makes a big difference.

[Rip Van We Go Again]

Lambert is really starting to look like an idiot, doubtless his 'we go again' mantra in the post match interview will compound it.
Time for drooling, pea brained fuckwit Lerner to open the cheque book.

[Legion]

Great first half. Terrible second. Should have been in the bag. Why was CNZ substituted? Bizarre.

[NeilH]

Still, its a bloody valuable point and lots of positive things to focus on!!

[pauliewalnuts]

Some positive things there but fuck me, when will we ever manage to win a game again?

[Risso]

Good first half, rotten second half, usual two goals conceded.  Absolutely chronic substitutions, Bannan and Holman were gash when they came on.  Still, Gabby had his best game in ages.

[Holtemeister]

Terrible luck in having two injuries limiting choices but bringing off charlie if not injured was madness as it sucked them onto us and they kept coming at up instead of guarding against our three pronged attack

Lambert looks absolutely fooked ...... dead man walking now

[picicata]

That clearly went all tits when, first, Delph was forced of through injury and Bannan came on. Bannan is shit. He is a tiny midget, with very little ability. And then when N'Zog went off. If he went off for any other reason than injury then I blame Lambert whole heartedly for throwing the points away.

[maigrait]

we can't take sustained pressure, never have and by this never will. Not exactly much on the bench to 'shore' things up if he was trying to do that by the substitutions... You could argue that attack would have been the best tactic but hey... I'm not a footie manager.

[paulcomben]

When will they be coached on defending corners?!

The same time they get some coaching on taking corners, hopefully.

Ha! Yip.
