They've had more chances in 10 minutes than they did in the whole of the first half.

They have lots of potential goalscorers.
We have - and Lambert expects it all to come from - Benteke. That's it.

Me too.  What do we expect we we just give them all the ball?

We're dropping too deep again and the half's only just started Lambert's half time talks must be total crap.

Even more expected after De Gea saved Benteke's early chance in the half.

We're really struggling now

Need to get hold of it a bite  even if it just means keeping it amongst our defence for spells as we did in the first half

Had to turn it off.  Hearing those fuckers singing just makes me sick.

Quel surprise.  Following an inspiring half time talk, Villa retreat.

The frustrating thing is that they are poor defensively, yet De Gea has had so little to do. One save from Benteke's header and that's basically it.

We're not exploiting their weaknesses...and sitting back is playing to their strengths.

It's not like we came out to defend though, is it? We started well in the half but just started getting over-run.

Lambert knows what he's doing.
