Must be because the manager doesn't use them he just hoofs it from the back. We're Aston Fucking Villa not Wimbledon Villa II. He promised attacking attractive football and this is not it! Yes we won Wednesday but we played the same style. Your not going to go to places like Everton and get a result playing this way and it's not Fucking good enough. This is just as much Lerner's fault for making him shop at a level where he has to buy this Shit. Although I think Kozak is a decent player, if money is the issue, I'd have thought 7m on a striker was an infinitely less sensible way to spend money than on a midfielder.This is true and it's been said on here many times that a striker was not the priority at that time. It has to be a money issue I can see no other explanation, unless it's a wages issue

i don't think he even gets that much stick, to be honest.The selling up thing, though, he can only sell up if someone is prepared to pay him what he wants for the club. And we only want someone to buy off him if they're going to invest in the club.It's not like "sack the manager" style arguments. You can't force someone to turn up with the money and desire to buy a football club. Hope for it, yes, but nobody - including Randy - can just make that happen. He's not going to sell for peanuts and walk away from his investment having lost even more money, and why should he?
I know people are going on about money constraints but look at Poyet he's managed to turn round a team full of misfits bought by his predecessors. Could you imagine us going anywhere and winning 0-3 any time soon. The long and short of it is Lambert is not a very good manager.
Watched it on TV. I thought we were ok first half and just about deserved the lead. We also started the second half ok and the defending was pretty good for the most part though lucky at times and Everton squandered some chances. Once they started pressing more and we began to tire, you sensed Everton would score a couple though and obviously they did.We do give the ball away far too easily at times and put ourselves under pressure needlessly. I thought the match against Albion on weds may have had a bearing on it as we looked knackered after about an hour. Everton are a good side though too - I can't rember the stat of how many they have lost- I think it was something like 1 in 32. Whatever it is, they're clearly very solid at Goodison . I don't agree with some of the more hysterical posters that we were shite. We just lost to a better side.
