Aston Villa v Swansea City Post-Match Thread

Unless I'm missing an in-joke you need to retract that and apologise.

I am sorry for my last but one post. No offence was intended and would like the forum to ignore the A word.

When KEA scored he ignored the Holte, the crowd, the away fans, the manager, the fourth official and all the subs except one who he hugged and kissed - Lowton.   I think they are trying to outdo each other with the bizarreness of their goal celebrations. If Tonev ever scores he will probably run outside and celebrate with the owner of the burger van by the swings.   That is where most of his shots at goal finish up anyway.

If Tonev scores, I think we can expect an airborne pig to descend over the North Stand, perform a victory roll, and shoot star-wards over the Holte roof.

Talking of fan-excluding goal celebrations, surely they're all made up for by the sheer brilliance of Kozak's celebrations - diving into the crowd as if he's just scored the winning goal for Lazio in the Rome derby.

With a clear lack of anything else going on in training and the amount of the goals we score at home I reckon they should be able to come up with a five minute Diversity style routine for each one.

Kozak is like an eastern european version of John Carew.   Big, slow, enthusiastic and determined but none of Big John's brio and bravura.   Would like to see Tonev's pig though.

It's getting to the point where we can realistically expect NASA to put on a space display for each one.

The Red Arrows would be good.   Vapour trails in claret and blue doing that dive down and starburst upwards over the centre circle would be nice and understated.

Let's get Danny Boyle in to direct.

Who would be the little one getting flung about like a rag doll?

Let's get Danny Boyle in to coach.

Regarding the booing, my guess is that most of it is aimed at Lambert/Lerner. Personally I think the players are doing their best but they need help in the form of better coaching and tactics along with some experienced players to work alongside.

Take Tonev for example, the guy is being asked to make a massive step up to the premier league and is clearly trying, but it isn't happening for him so far. If it was just him we'd be ok but most of the team seems to be in the same boat at the moment.

What slightly puzzles me is why some of the young kids like Robinson hav'nt been given a couple a cameo appearances maybe 15 minutes at the end just to test them out, can't be any worse than some we have running around now.

The trouble with booing is that the players don't know that.  They're the guys in the middle while the boos ring out around them.  Their confidence already looks rock bottom and many on here are suggesting that's a big part of the reason they're not performing as well as we know they can.  Booing is hardly going to improve that situation.
