We've started a lot of games at half pace this season & you can't get away with it every week.

We started with 3 at the back & we've got fucked almost every time we've played that system. Why does Lambert think we can play with 3 at the back? Baker is shit with the ball at his feet & has little or no awareness of attackers around him. He's great at recovery or last ditch challenges but that shows how poor a defender he is. Clarke is only marginally better.

The less said about Tonev the better.

Too many players who are not good enough or not ready at this level.

Bottom line is we are piss poor, lack quality & Lambert is tactically just as bad.

Started with three at the back? Not from where I'm sitting

Have a look at the position of all 3 for the first goal, looks very much like a back 3 to me.

Maybe plan B will be passing to our own players.I've noticed particularly this season that we give the ball to the opposition and unsportingly they don't give it back to us

How to beat Villa. Press constantly. Wait for a fuck up. Repeat.
Pressing, any sort of pace or movement and we cannot handle it. Either defensively or offensively. We just have no answer.
We just have to hope for a set piece or a piece of luck.

Can anyone honestly say this dreadful performance is a surprise.This clueless manager has so far bought us the clubs biggest ever defeat ,beaten by a 4th divsion team over two games ,lost to a poor Millwall team ,given us the clubs worst ever home record .And just to prove the point he has made no changes at half time.Very stubborn man the sooner we get rid off the better as far as i am concerned

Lambert, those aren't genuine Boss specs you know. Cheap foreign imitations that'll fall apart after a few months.

I still think there are 3 teams worse than us.  Just.  Only just.

Lets just hope Palace don't make a habit of winning under Pulis! ;)

Lambert is very stubborn isn't he...... We could play all night and not look like scoring to be honest.
