Fuck off KMac!! Utter nonsense you talk. Ffs we need Okore in as soon as possible. Traore tired, Gana tired? Absolute bollocks.......something really odd going on in that dressing room. Lerner you useless prick sort it out - show some balls for once!!

[frank]

An opportunity wasted. OK, we would probably have lost anyway, but we could at least have gone out with a team that was capable of testing the opposition. KM's selection was a disgrace

[tomd2103]

Even more so when you read that Gana and Traore were simply left out of the squad. Gana who has been head and shoulders our best midfielder this season. Idiotic, and if I did not know better as short sighted as much of the little England press gang have been.

It's truly unbelievable especially regarding Gana.

That just can't be true, can it? Christ, that's not a selection, its a fuck-off.

I saw in one paper at the weekend the word 'cliques' mentioned.  Seeing that selection tonight, you do have to wonder.

''We couldn’t play people here and say after 20 minutes that they look knackered.”

But Gabby can play injured and Richardson looks fucked after half time in every single game. The blokes talking utter tosh. Fuck off to Swindon with Dim.

Exactly.
Massively disappointed with KMac's selection tonight...very simply adding to the current shit mood at The Villa.
Struggling to even believe it.
Fu*k him!

No doubt Garde will have seen a certain degree of who can do what at AVFC and will act accordingly.
If Gabby or Lescott are in Sunday's team I will eat someone's hat.
(I've only got woolly ones, and don't fancy them at all! Far too chewy.)

Looking forward to some significant changes in team personnel for Sunday.

Bullshit. All our foreign summer signings were dropped or tired? Utter bollocks. I'd love to know what's going on in that dressing room and training pitch because it's not right at all.

I was talking recently to someone who was did their coaching badges over the summer at St George's Park and he said that Sherwood appeared on one of the days.  He said they were discussing the role of sports science and conditioning when Sherwood apparently piped up with "I don't bother with any of that fucking shit".  Would explain quite a bit to be honest.

Remi... Please play all the french signings and let them gel together.....Don't impose  the usual Shite  that are totally useless ******...we know who they are.....the  worst bunch of so called footballers in a long time... Remi, Be Brave.

It certainly looks suspiciously like Kmac and the British players were behind dim Tim and the foreign contingent maybe not so keen.  I wonder if the foreigners got together and told Tim what a useless c**t he was tactically.  Well if they did they were right.

Perhaps it's just me...but I almost think you can see it every time Gil plays...he so much wants the ball and looks for other players to do the same, but they're not so keen...except for perhaps Grealish, who he plays with really well.
You can see his shoulders drop, in a resigned sort of way as if he is thinking..."what the fu*k am I doing here?"

I honestly think he is our best player.

There, I've said it.

Time to gel together, it's what they need, we all know that, we've even been told that as an early season excuse of why we've been getting beaten. We get two games, pretty much pressure off because we have no manager and what does the caretaker do? He doesn't play any of them, so they're still getting no match minutes under their belts together.

Absolute scandalous selection tonight, it hasn't helped the football club one bit. Mcdonald was supposedly a Villa man? My arse, he's not done us any good at all tonight, he needs packing off.

Tom, we've lost 10 out of 12. Teams that do that are either massively out gunned in the division they are in or the other option is everyone is not pulling in the same direction and fighting for the cause. I think with the stories in the media the last 2 weeks and the team selections the last 3 games it's pretty clear which it is for us.

Dim should have gone last international break.

Fuck me. Even Sam Alladiola swears by it.

If true, he is even more of a dimwit than he showed himself at Villa Park

As for Gana - I would imagine being named as the ONLY central midfielder against a side like Swansea might have knackered him out a fair bit, but well into the last 15 minutes he was still making lung busting runs into their half and still winning the ball back, so I would respectfully suggest KMac is talking out of his arse.

There, I've said it.

I would look to build the attacking side of the game around Gil at the moment.  Put him in an advanced central role and get the fall to him.  We can fit others in around him, but he looks our best bet at the moment.
