QPR v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[fredm]

We are a goal down half way through the second half and no sign of a tactical change. Then it's two and he makes a double swop. Even when this doesn't work with five minutes to go he still doesn't use his third change. The man is completely tactically inept.

[Nelly]

How did we get to be so utterly shit. This period is a great shame to our club.

[LTA]

That was garbage.  Second half was a joke with too many players more interested in starting fights than getting back into the game.

Dunne would walk back into this team.  Far better than Clark and Baker.

This team WILL get relegated and I can see us finishing bottom

[Jimbo]

Our chairman is not anchored to this universe, and that's why this is only going to get worse. Lambert should have gone a year ago, yet we've got him for another four years. It's the stupidest decision since the McLeish debacle, and it's going to hurt us big time.

[Goldie.7]

Very predictable.

[jwarry]

The thing is you could see we had far better players but somehow Lambert fucked it up. As others have said it's not like Small Heath where any manager coming in has no chance, there is definitely a core in there. God I feel so angry!

[JUAN PABLO]

, and Can someone tell me what Gabby did to deserve a four year contract ? I think he touched the ball less than 5 times in the second half.

Yep.  Bizarre.

[citizenDJ]

It's just extraordinary that this clown is still in charge of the team, it beggars belief that he has been given a new contract. He is absolutely, irredeemably shit.

With Pulis and Moyes both looking for work, surely the time is now to sack the useless fuck? Perhaps our new CEO is aware that there are decent managers outside of England?

[Loxton01]

Utterly pathetic! This man has had three years and we are getting worse! This is a man who lost to a league two team in a semi final of a cup lost to countless lower leagues teams in cups! How can he deserve a new four year deal of what he has produced is outrageous!

Four goals in nine games! Four!

We dominated in patches of that game and didn't look remotely like scoring!

Gabby was a disgrace how he deserves a new deal is so wrong!

This club is robbing us all and I'm sick of it!

Lambert is doing his usual hoping Benteke scores!

Lambert destroys players

Football is a cut throat business why is it only our club who can't see it

[PaulMcGrathsNo5Shirt]

Only the second game I've seen this season, I go home and away watching Halesowen Town these days as Premier League football bores me. I thought I'd give it a go tonight. How bloody awful. I feel for you poor sods watching that every week.

My observations. What is the point of playing Gabby and Weimann where they hurt nobody? Two holding midfielders who barely crossed the half way line and Cleverley went missing. If you play Gabby surely you play him up against that lump Dunne or wide to beat a full back? I didn't see a Villa midfielder make a run into the box at all, all night. They've conceded two goals per game and we didn't even manage two shots on target. Austin scored twice for them and didn't do anything outside of the penalty area. He hit us where it hurts. As for our lot...

[PaulWinch again]

I honestly can't see where the next goal, let alone win, is coming from.  He's got to go, surely?

And that is the absolute worst thing about this situation.

I could maybe put up with it if we had the glimmer, the faintest glimmer of hope that he might get the sack, but he won't, he's just been given a new spangly long contract.

Unbelievably feeble "leadership" from that utter fool Lerner.

There is no way out of this, none at all. We're stuck with this bloke, despite more and more proof he is out of his depth.

This is the thing, he's about the most ensconced unsuccessful manager I've ever seen. There is a zero percent chance of him being sacked.

[supertom]

Absolute crap. No creativity. We rarely threatened them. In the end we didn't do enough in the final third to capitalize on our possession. QPR won't have an easier game all season.

Lambert simply must go. I hope the Villa fans make it patantly clear next week that we want a change. If Randy's not here, hopefully the grapevine lets him know because next week has to be Lamberts Bolton. I don't think there's any come back from this. He's going to lose against Spurs. That's got to be the final nail. Will it be? Probably not, but it fucking should be.

Bring in Pulis on a rolling deal. Have him save us. If he then feels we're not gonna support him, we can look again in the summer. But he knows how to work on a budget. He knows how to get blood from a stone. Stoke shouldn't still be a Prem club, but he had them firmly established. What he did at Palace was nothing short of miraculous. We need that because Lambert will relegate us. If not this year, then next, because how long will the likes of Delph, Vlaar and Benteke stay?

Someone needs to come in and kick some of these players up the ass, especially Gabby. Darren Bent ate Grant Holt and Gabby looks like he's eaten Darren Bent. Apparently Bent played today briefly, but I didn't notice.

[ROBBO]

How many negative records have to be broken before Lerner sacks Lambert, the opposition we played tonight were rubbish but they still managed to get two past us, Westwood is dire but so are some of his mates, never seen so many bad passes from both teams in one game. someone mentioned Moyes, yes please and before our next match.

[passitsideways]

The one thing I don't get (among all the others) most is why he keeps persisting with Gabby and Andi. They're stealing a fucking living these days. Cleverley out left is a massive waste of the things he actually can do kind of well. The defending...well, only thing I can say is at least they weren't constantly shambolic.
