Aston Villa vs Queen's Park Rangers - post match thread

[Jimbo]

We're the Villa. We never do things the easy way. The battle continues.

[Matt Collins]

How many chances did QPR have? I made it three. How many did we have? (Grealish, benteke three times, gabby header all not taken)

I'm not having it that we didn't play well going forward. That gabby and grealish weren't good. That cleverley didn't display lots of good movement and bacuna didn't pose a massive threat in the first half.

[Grande Pablo]

Would we have let in 3 with a defence of Bacuna-Okore-Clark-Lowton?  I think not.

Richardson should 'do one', as the kids say.

Phillips looks a world-beater when we beat Blackpool 3-2 in Prem a few years back.  We should still sign him up - he'd suit our gung-ho style of play.

[jwarry]

Come on chaps, that was not a bad performance at all, look at the stats.  The problems were purely defensive and we all know Timmy had to play unfit players which ultimately took its toll.  I would consider us to be unlucky not to win that.  Yes we may end up going to the wire but at least we can now see we have a chance because there are goals in us, or have we all know forgotten 11.5 hours without one?!?

[OzVilla]

Thank McGrath for Tekkers, if he stays fit in the run in I think well be ok.  But we can afford no more injuries now.

Our defending tonight was as poor as its been all season, makeshift full backs and it told. not sure if we got lucky due to Tekkers or unlucky due to defensive madness.

Should have been a comfortable 3 points at half-time. Cole wrong person top bring on. Shit I'll post better tomorrow. its a quarter past one and I've got to be up up in a few hours. Could have been a lot better. Could have ended up a lot fecking worse. Wasn't impressed by Sherwood's substitutions after QPR changed thing early doors. And no-one on posts for corners? Well, if your steady at the back okay, i'd agree. But, we're not.

[David_Nab]

The second goal where was the defender on the post ?

Though should never have gotten to that ,Richardson was simply awful against Philips.I would cut him some slack as he is not really a LB but then his attacking is utter wank too so really he offers nothing over Lowton than being left footed.

[LTA]

Good God we don't make it easy.

Granted it was a makeshift back 4, but I don't want to see Richardson in a Villa shirt again.  He was absolute pants.

[pooligan]

Grateful to have salvaged a draw  at home against fucking QPR, guess that is how bad we have become!

[silhillvilla]

Vlaar put in one of the least composed games I've ever seen, every ball launched high into the night sky

I think Cole is an easy target. He played well when he came on and got us some momentum back.

If this shit does go to the last game because it's looking almost certain it will, you can count me out, there's no way I could watch it.

[Small Rodent]

Austin should have been off. He should have had a yellow in the first half too. Would have made life easier.

[LTA]

I notice Clarks getting loads of abuse on Twitter.  Granted tonight wasn't his best game, but rather unfair given he's been immense this season.

Okore, Clark, Lawton and Hutton need to be our back 4 when available, with Given in goal.

Twitter morons. Clark lost his composure because he was next to Vlaar. If Okore had played we'd have won.
