Aston Villa v West Bromwich Albion Match Thread

[Summers]

Yacob shoulder dislocated?

[JUAN PABLO]

Come on Villa - step now - stop losing possession , midfield get an hold , show some bollocks now


we need this win

[pauliewalnuts]

I'm firmly coming to the conclusion that nearly all our defensive woes are down to Lowton, maybe a bit down to midfield but mainly Lowton.

I tend to agree re Lowton. Bertrand, by comparison, has been pretty much flawless, whereas Lowton just seems all over the shop.

I'm also nothing like convinced by Westwood, keeps giving the ball away, then letting the game pass him by.

[Mister E]

Westwood has been poor ... passing is off and his lack of good defensive skill are a real concern.

[PaulWinch again]

Fucking hell Villa this has been poor this half, we need to step up.

[devilla]

We need to watch Amavoltinee

[Deano's Mullet]

what has pepe mel done to wba that lambert cant do for villa?

[pauliewalnuts]

We've started this half pretty poorly.

[ozzjim]

Westwood has regressed badly this season. A genuine holding player to replace him would be fantastic.

[Jimbo]

We're running around like toddlers again.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

If only we knew how to pass a football.

Watching us trying to pass the ball around, if it was any other team I'd piss myself laughing. Teams just sit back and wait for us to give them the ball.

Lowton has consistently been a liability at the back since we bought him.  I think he's either a bit thick or has an attitude problem.  He is half decent going forward.

They are what they are Paulie.  Championship level at best.

[supertom]

Westwood, KEA and Lowton all dire. Bacuna is in the wrong position. It's no wonder we look a mess.
Time to make changes.
I'd be tempted to get Albrighton and Tonev on each win and play 4 4 fucking 2. Get at their fullbacks.

Ditto Poyet for Sunderland
