West Bromwich Albion v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Mortimer's Bear]

On a positive note, I thought Bennett looked much better especially first half.

Can this whole tip-tapping argument thing stop now please? I was the one getting pelters last week (and be forewarned, my co-editor will probably be posting his match report on here later) and it's tedious.

Wind it in you two. Especially you bertlambshank. And stop with the flipping quotathons please.

What am winding in? I wasn't the one having a go.

The digs and trying to get an argument going.

PWS if you read it back I wasn't .But I will it leave it there.

Let's cut to the chase. Would anyone like a fight?

Yeah I'd love one!

[Mortimer's Bear]

Amen.

You can blame Randy Lerner all you want, but he doesn't set  the team up to defend a 2-0 lead for 45 minutes. He wasn't in the dressing room to motivate and inject desire into them. He wasn't the one who could spot our shortcomings and correct them. He wasn't the one that made a couple of the oddest substitutions I've seen.


We are a soft, soft touch. And we will be relegated if nothing is done to correct that. It doesn't matter if we sign Messi, Sneijder or Yaya Bastard Toure. 

I wanted Lambert as manager this summer. I thought he'd be exactly what we needed. I'm sorry to say I've changed my mind, now I see him as Roberto Martinez-lite.

If I was Lerner, as far as I was concerned, Paul Lambert has one game to save his job.

The first two subs were from injuries so how you can make that comment is strange, agree N Zog should not have gone off

Fair enough if Delph was injured, he didn't seem to hobble off as far as I could see.

The rest of my post I stand by. Our defending as a team (not back four wise) is as disorganised, as unstructured, as powder puff and naive as I have seen in 30 years of watching Villa.

Take that result before the game? Yes. Take that performance? I don't think so. 

Mr Woo, he was clearly hobbling as he came off, think he suffered it in first half when he went for tussle with their crap right back. I thought first half we defended excellently as a team to be fair, second half we suffered when Delph went off and N'Zog IMHO

I can't wait till we win a match and get 3 points we'll all be happy for a few hours then. Looking at the fixtures it might not be till March 9th

Easy, we've got millwall next week.

We pick ourselves up right about now and go again brother, right about now, we pick ourselves up right about now, we pick ourselves up and go again, pickpickpickpickpickpick right about now we pick ourselves up and go again, right about now, we pick ourselves up and go again go again go again gain gain gain. The funk so Villa, right about now

For what it's worth Weimann and Benteke would be my first choice forward line.

Bent and Benteke for me.  Pace apart - thats all you  need in a front two.

Royal rumble?

[Mazrim]

Oh yes, and Villa oblige another player who hasn't scored for a Geological epoch.
Does that happen a lot or is it a figment of my imagination?

Amen.

PWS are you going to let this go?
