Quote from: DB on December 29, 2015, 12:39:20 PMMy Naarwich mate who is a ST holder said we didn't look bothered, no fight and bad body language. That's was the players and the management. Also said both teams were shit.Fate accepted.I watched the game on TV and , IMHO, your Naarwich mate is talking nonsense. There was no apparent lack of commitment ( as proven by the end-of-game bust up )...confidence, yes, quality, sometimes. Villa pressed for most of the game and the scoreline was not a true reflection of the game in general, as their Manager admitted afterwards. That said, Naarwich were pretty poor , which in itself speaks volumes. Our lack of confidence really showed in the final pass or when a shooting opportunity presented itself. The lack of quality was mainly in Defence, Hutton is erratic and Bacuna ( or K.Richards) both have delusions of adequacy. The Times best sums up our performance ( such as it was ):" Once again, Villa showed glimpses of promise but they remain hugely vulnerable at the back. Each and every time Norwich moved down the flanks, those in claret and blue shuffled around nervously without actually doing much at all" . One question, were Okore & Lescott omitted due to the F.A's bookings amnesty?, I note that both Ayew & Westwood will miss the Sunderland game.We go again.....................Godzvilla!

blame game for the goalsgoal 1 - Richards primarily, lazy useless defending. turned around in a circle and fell on his arse for a finish. captain fantastic. Guzan should be saving that shot toogoal 2 - all the back five were individually and collectively awful. Clark beaten in the air for the kick out, Hutton woeful touch to lose the ball, Richards putting zero pressure on Hoolahan so he has loads of time to pick out the forward, ridiculous arms behind his back lark too, Clark not tracking the run and being touch tight to the forward, Richardson not tracking or doing anything, Guzan beaten at his near post

The sooner we clear out this rotten defence the sooner confidence will build in the rest of the team. Can't believe Richards is saying we need to be more ruthless when we are on top. Stop the offing goals going in and we might have a chance you idiot!
F*cked? Cattle trucked. Playing Grimsby and Bury can be great fun. Villa fams just want to win. On that basis Tommy Doc was a villa great. Took us from 2nd to 3rd and back to first. Brilliant. Have a few kids and give them half a century of success.

For some reason I keep thinking that at some point things will change, we'll get a bit of luck and go on a run of three or four decent results. It's not going to happen is it? We may not win another game all season.

It really is too late now.

Yeah, but it would be funny to see all our psychologically damaged players in floods of tears within 10 seconds of Pearson opening his gob. Bless.
