Aston Villa vs Sunderland Match Thread

[Jimbo]

N'Zogbia has finally realised he's on a football pitch.

[JUAN PABLO]

first save by a goalie after 34 mins

[ChicagoLion]

If Sunderland can nullify Benteke then I think they have enough to win this.

We are carrying too many passengers.

[supertom]

Zogbia looks like he's always about to trip over the bloody ball when he runs with it. Bloody useless. He's living off half a good season at Newcastle, and half a good season at Wigan...in a 10 fucking year career.

[Malandro]

this is the worst game, so far, I've seen this year

Thank fuck there aren't any more this year then.

probably not my greatest sentence

[Axl Rose]

It's incredibly boring to watch. Urgency. Please. Villa.

Cleverley is fucking shit.

I hope to God we don't sign him. On the other hand Sanchez I do like despite his slow start.

Signing him and signing him for 8 million...I despair with Lambert at times. Cleverley hasn't had a single good game for us yet. He did ok on his debut against Liverpool, but for 8 million, I expect more than simply ok. Look at some of the players Southampton have signed for similar fees.

Thing is, if it's not Cleverley coming in permanently, knowing Lambert, it'll be someone like Hoolahan. Dreary.
We need bright, exciting players who can beat a man. (Grealish)

[Jon Crofts]

Yesssss we've had a shot on target!

36 minutes.  At home.  To Sunderland.  Sums us up really, glad I stayed at home.

[mrfuse]

Delph not at the races.Unless its Kempton

He's looked a little off since coming back from injury. Granted still more effective than Cleverley, but even by Delphy's standards his passing his been woeful.

The ball boys are more effective than Cleverley.

[SamTheMouse]

A fucking dire game between two fucking dire teams.

[peter w]

Just wait until he's in his final year on his contract. n'zogbia will suddenly look a world beater again.

[Tuscans]

Even the commentators are becoming sarcastic about this game

[RussellC]

That was a good bit of play by N'Zogbia. There. I've said it.

[aj2k77]

Does anyone know if we've passed the ball forwards more times than backwards so far?

[Jimbo]

I wonder if Lambert is this unadventurous in the sack?

"I've found a new style, love. I'm going to try taking my pants off."

[Jarpie]

How the hell Weimann is still starting games...he has touch of an elephant and has been utter shit for the last two years.
