Former PL club Aston Villa 2-3 Watford - post mortem thread

[aj2k77]

Aston Villa are finished as a Premier League club.  I see no route out of this now.

I'd brace yourself.  It may be a while before we come back.

I'd take a few seasons of not getting beaten as a part of our routine to be honest. That's how low we've sunk, yes it's the cliché line but some respite from losing would be welcome, so the Championship will be better for us. We deserve it, on the whole our football has been shit for seasons and our results pretty laughable. People said it time and time again, we need to start investing in tried and tested quality because we can't keep dodging the reaper playing Russian roulette, we didn't we had another summer gambling our Benteke windfall money on youngsters and we are paying the ultimate price.

I mean come on we've swapped Benteke for Gestede, it sums us up in a nut shell.

Randy needs to show some fucking accountability for his stewardship of the club. He better get his wallet out in January. Because it will be some legacy he is going to leave behind.

Randy doesn't give a shit mate. Surely you know that by now?

*sigh*

Some positives to take from the performance but losing to fellow strugglers at home, and letting in three goals in the process, equals we're shit and going down. I can't see any other outcome when looking at what the team has to offer; any decent build-up play is stymied by the fact that we don't have a focus in attack, and the defence is always at sixes and sevens. We can't score more than the opposition and our defence leaks goals. No escape this time, people; this is the end game.

I wish we had 19 points like they do. Struggling they are not

Fair enough. Agree with the general gist though?

Does any one think that Lerner will make the right decisions to get us out of the Championship?
I dont, we could be the next Sheffield Wednesday.

Nigel Pearson & David Moyes & Charlie Austin are all available. And still could not save us from Brentford away.

[aj2k77]

We can get out of this.  It's going to take something special between now and  May but we can do it.

You been drinking Thunderbirds? The only thing special we've produced the last 5 years is the incredible ability to consistently lose to whatever opposition you put in front of us.

Of all the seasons to be relegated...typical Villa.

Lerner you're a complete and utter failure.

It will be way too late by then mate!!

When you score two at home you should get something out of the game, usually a win.

Three of the back four should not be there. Even when he plays well Hutton sees a lot of the ball but does nothing with it, defensively he is always a liability. What is the point of being a 6ft Glaswegian if runners are going to go past you without incurring at the very least a mild concussion.

Richardson is going to be too afraid to come out of the tunnel before long. He is so out of his depth at left back they are going to have to set the dogs on him just to get him on the pitch. Clark has neither the physical presence nor the positional awareness to be a truly dependable centre half.

Up yours Sherwood. The continental half of the team is starting to look decent. The rest of the season is going to be hard work, and Garde needs to find a defence before long to make it worth the effort.

I really, really want to disagree with you. Not only do I not have the energy but I'd be fucking wrong.

Nope, Garde will walk and the chuckle brothers will appoint another complete numpty. The committee will buy the players anyway.

[ronshirt]

Be positive. It looks like we've weathered the storm.

[Richard E]

Does any one think that Lerner will make the right decisions to get us out of the Championship?

I don't think Lerner gives a toss. I'd imagine that if he ever thinks about Villa it is solely to regret ever buying us.

[JUAN PABLO]

I was worried before now I know we are doomed.

I can not believe ASTON VILLA have come to this.

How the f@@k did Lambert stay so f@@king long .

Its a f@@king embarrassment.

[PaulWinch again]

Clark just isn't very good.
