Aston Villa v Arsenal Match Thread

[Toronto Villa]

it's taken us to be 2-0 down and likely a bollocking at HT to show any kind of desire and passion. I fully expect if we don't find a goal somewhere that the effort will drop away and we'll fall for a counter and a 3-0 scoreline. At least we are having a go, but it all just seems a little too late.

[Ross]

If we can't compete then kick them. Get stuck in boys.

[Small Rodent]

Whaaat? Bacuna...

[ozzjim]

Trouble is, if, as he is, Benteke hits a bad run, there is no goals in our side at all.

Fucking mess. Long day at work then this shit.

I will see sense again in the morning I am sure, but right now I just want the bloke to do one and see if someone else can give them a bit of confidence.

[Fergal]

Weird that we have more possession of the ball and look better, that's odd isn't it Lambert?

Send him a letter...

[JUAN PABLO]

Anyone think Benteke should come off and Heskey should come on?

I thought he was on already.

We are an embarrassment, all these years to spend wisely and develop the squad.  Lurching from one shit decision to another, Randy needs to give Lambert money to spend on players and decent wages or we are fucked.
Obvious aint it?

what  worries me is we cant beat a Sheff team   who probably spent £30 on their team with the money hes spent  . I wouldnt give him the money.

You get the feeling arsenal can step up a gear if needed - they are coasting.

Quite.

Weird that we look better with more of the ball as well.

What time's Bowery time?

Randy needs to give the manager money to spend on players - agreed , but that manager should not be lambert.

I am not so sure, not many managers could manage this crop of players with any degree of success. I would like to see Lambert given proper money to spend on proper players.

We should be grateful to Wenger. He clearly wants to save his team from too much effort and bank the points.

I am not very knowledgeable about football but I have forgotten more about the game than Faulkner will ever know.   He is a gaffer's man, a toady, a brown nose, a sycophant, an acolyte, an arsehole creeper with one motivation.   To keep his job.

Brian there are Villa fans who's cast off toenails know more about football than Faulkwit

[Tuscans]

Midnight.
