This.

[ROBBO]

We all say this team should be higher in the league but what you say is dead right, the team he puts out week after week is unbalanced, many have been saying for a long time you cannot have Cleverley and Westwood in the midfield they do the same job. I am very disappointed in Westwood as he should be better that passing sideways and backwards, Gil showed them all in a great cameo how to move into space and pass forward to a team mate, they will probably ostracise him for making them look so inept.

[Legion]

Will do the honours after work.

4 CMs. I despair

[Ron Manager]

The word depression comes to mind. The word hope does not. When we are clinging on to a couple of pieces of skill from a new player you know you are in deep trouble.

[Drummond]

I need to find somewhere to hide on Sunday. I fear it won't be pretty.

Try the opposition goal, nobody will see you in there...

[JUAN PABLO]

I hope the fans don't turn up .

Lambert ain't bothered about the cup , be a good day then for the villa fans to say , enough is enough , we ain't paying for this rubbish.

I'm sure you come out with this line every season and it's wrong every season as well.

It does make you laugh really. We had three central midfielders last week against the worst side in the division and we created nothing. The manager's response to that is to add another central midfielder.

You think he is but we are just too shit to beat the likes of sheff utd and millwall anyway.

If the fans want to protest , I think they should pick a cup game not to turn up .

Like someone else said on another thread, he spoke about the fact that we're not creative enough in the final third and what does he do? Throws in another center midfielder, let's someone who can create something play the night before and leaves his new signing on the bench.

I honestly think he does take it seriously but like you said, we tend to struggle against lower league teams.

As for your other point, I agree. I don't blame anyone who chooses not to go this weekend.

[Boz]

Lambert will ensure Gil loses all ingenuity and creativity by the Bournemouth game, and that assumes he'll play. Lambert will probably save him for the next league game.
