Aston Villa v Southampton Match Thread

[Stu]

We're not losing, and we started to put some moves together towards the end.

Still, it's been pretty dismal other than that.

[PaulWinch again]

I'd really like to see Robinson on but we won't. There's such a lack of creativity in the squad.

[Jimbo]

Dismal right up until the last two minutes, when we were back to our dreary best.

great cross marc   - shame robinson wasnt in the box

I'd rather Mark Lillis was playing up front than those pair

[Monty]

I can't have the sound on, were there half time boos?

[Morten]

Albrighton and Bertrand are playing well.

Was just about to type that.

As positive as possible - the difference between the two teams was vast. Soton play and work as a team, we are completely individual, apart from those few moments at the end.

Awful start, reasonable finish to the half. Albrighton is the only one who looks like he might make something happen. Get Robinson on. Give the boy a go. See if he can surprise them.

The instant magic of SAS hasn't quite happened sadly. It's same old, same old really.

[VillaAlways]

Swansea equalised

We might now that Cowans is assisting. We have to try something.

[JUAN PABLO]

So poor. Weimann and Agbonlahor invisible and our midfield cannot pass. Delph just put it out for a throw-in without being under pressure.

Where is the energy

those two are so bloody lucky they get to play prem games

championship players at the most

Agbonlahor does not even look like trying these days

Getting stick off the Holte apparently. Sad times.

well he normally blames the manager at the time , so I was expecting a game off him today , bloody rubbish

I think Lambert should have gave the crowd a lift today and put in Robinson , drop either weiman or gabby .

It might have shown things are going to change

that first half is just the same old shite as normal

No in fact we cheered then based on last 10 mins.

[Stu]

Don't think so, but all is not well on the Holte End according to the gf.

[supertom]

I'd be tempted to get Robinson and Tonev on. Sacrifice Gabby and Weimann who both look bloody awful today.

[dicedlam]

Agbonlahor doesn't even have his pace anymore. He's never been the most gifted player, but without his main threat it makes him look very, very ordinary.
