Aston Villa v Notts County - Match Thread

[rjp]

At least the commentary's stopped

[Villatillidie25]

Pathetic goalkeeping, why did he run out like that. Guzan's place is very safe

[supertom]

The lineup was asking for it to be honest. Very strange indeed. I'm all for attacking but you can't cram that many attack minded players into a line up against any team in the league.
We'll get our pants pulled down unless he sacrifices 1-2 of them sharpish.

Fuck me. A 6th season of the same old utter shite despite all of the changes & expenditure. Unfucking believable. And this avtv link is cack for £5 a month. Connection drops every time you touch your smartphone.

Not watching but it sounds like every game reinforces the need for a new striker!

Ridiculous team he's picked. Asking for trouble

[silhillvilla]

Jesus wept

Got to be said, since half time against Palace, Tim has been tactically bloody awful. Ray needs to have a bloody word! Lambert, Bradford home.

A bit like the Burnley game from the end of last season.

I think it's been great to watch, two sides whose only interest is trying to score. Defensively we've been very iffy but some of the stuff going forward has been a joy. We have some special players on our hands.

Here's a thought. Why didn't he use this as an opportunity to get his entirely refreshed, partially gelled team used to playing together in something that looks vaguely like the side that will play in the league?

This is what Spuds fans warned of. I wish we'd save ourselves the embarassment and just put out a youth team. Save destroying the confidence anymore....

[Steve kirk]

Dont think I can take another lower league fuck up, sort it out Villa.

[charleeco7]

Set us up with no real holding midfielder which gives the two centre back no cover. I know bunn fooked up but it was a baker big hoof down the middle that caught us out.

I'd be more than happy if tonight we match the one goal winning margin that we had in that game.
