Everton vs Aston Villa match thread

[JUAN PABLO]

Crap for another week, I'm glad we had a week of internationals to break the monotony of being Aston Villa.

and I normally hate those weekends

[andyh]

Absolutely fucking shit doesn't even begin to describe this.

[mrfuse]

This reminds me of that game in Afghanistan where a hordes of semi-savage bloodthirsty tribesmen on horseback drag a dead goat across barren plains for hours on end. We're the goat.

Can we have Stallone in our team.

[JUAN PABLO]

who lost the ball n midfield then ? ffs

[phantom limb]

Anything we get out of this, however unlikely that seems, is a bonus. We need to beat the teams around us, and we've still got plenty of them to play. It's not looking good though.

Blackburn go one up with an own goal from the Preston keeper. Someone's luck's changed...

[Jimbo]

As I said before, the best we can possibly hope for is a shot on target.

[Nelly]

We're getting done by a better, more confident team but you'd expect more passion and fight from us.

[andyh]

who lost the ball n midfield then ? ffs

Gana.
His tracking back was fucking terrible after he lost it.

[rjp]

We have such a batty midfield, no balls, no leadership, no fight.

'Batty'? Charming.

I'd take David Batty in our midfield right now.

We need someone with some fight, someone who will tear into people, they're all so weak.

Yeah, like Gareth 'Legbreaker' Barry and James 'The Hulk' McCarthy. Some things, like skill, matter a bit more than just fighting people like a brainless moron.

And last time I checked, 'batty' didn't just mean 'not tough'.

Indeed. And homophobic language will not be tolerated on here.

It can also mean baffling or crazy.  That's how I read it anyway.

Gil and Grealish is a mistake, Grealish should be on the bench, he's been crap all season.

[pauliewalnuts]

Fell asleep on sofa. Woke up just now, first port of call is this thread, see we are still awful, wish I hadn't woken up.

We really are going down, sadly

[Nelly]

This is officially a spanking. 3-0.

[ozzjim]

Me too rjp

[JUAN PABLO]

wtf 3 - 0
