Gary Neville can spot our flaws easily.  Do we have anyone that analyses videos of our matches and figures out what we're doing wrong, or even have people in the stands? 

Or our the players simply not good or switched-on enough to execute plans?

Yep Neville is bang on the money.

If we're truly honest how many of these players are really good enough, three maybe at a push four. 

I'm depressed enough as it is due to going back to work tomorrow after two weeks paternity and one weeks extended leave, this is just pushing me towards the drink and a possible hangover in the morning.

 Westwood is one of the worst players i have seen in a Villa shirt, does absolutely nothing.Lowton is a poor defensive FB.

 If you are playing just 2 up front, you need a better touch on the ball than what Gabby has.

 This is the worst Villa team i have seen in 40 years, far worse than under McLeish or McNeil, at least with them we had some decent players, we have none now.

I equate this to taking on water in a wooden boat. You can only scoop the water out for so long before the wood rots and the bottom falls through. At what point does our bottom fall through?

May. We are so poor at home it will see us down, sleep walking into it. Others down there fighting, we are wading into the abyss.

Actually thought Neville spoke sense there by saying we didn't do enough. You expect it to be tough against the 'big' teams but you've got to have a go.

And what the fuck El Ahmedi and Baker ( who i hope will be ok btw) are still doing in the starting 11 i'll never know.

I suppose at least it means Tonev and Weimann are not playing.

9 defeats in total at home this season.

Abysmal.

If we do drop, this lot would struggle in the Championship IMO. Would love to see what goes on in Lerner's, Faulkner's and Lambert's heads.

I can accept Arsenal passing us to bits - they pass everyone to bits - but where is our fight? And always, always individual mistakes gifting the opposition goals. FUCK.

Palace wouldnt be this bad which is worrying.
