Norwich City vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Monty]

People criticise Garde for being too defensive but fuck me, looking at the defensive options I'm surprised he picks any attackers at all.

[andyh]

Garde is responsible for that, cowardice team selection and did not bother to change it.
He knew this was the last chance and put out that line up.
I have no idea how he thought that team could win a game.

Agreed.
The fuckers who started were pretty much the ones who got us into this position.
Bringing them all back in one go was a case of 'business as usual'.

I think Garde is shit. We know the squad is awful and Lerner is to blame and all that depressing bollocks, but I refuse to believe any manager wouldn't have scraped a backs to the wall one nil win by now. The squad with the exception of Ayew and Veretout don't want to play for him, and defensively he hasn't managed to sort anything. His substitutions come too late and he can't put player combinations together. I also think he's too pigheaded to try anything but the norm.

I wish i'd never said yes to a ticket to the Villa all those years ago. I'd be sitting basking in the glow of a decent day's cricket instead of cracking my teeth in anger.

Garde out! Get Moyes or Pearson now! At least they'd have the January window.

[saunders_heroes]

Well I'm 35 and I can honestly say it's the worse in my lifetime off supporting the villa and the worse thing is I can't see it getting any better. Very sad times

The worst Villa team I've ever seen and the worst Villa era of my life, and I've been a regular since '77.
Make no mistake, Randy Lerner is 100% responsible for Aston Villa's decline. 6 years of sabotage has turned us into the laughing stock of a club we see today.

[eric woolban woolban]

Can't we just resign from the league and be done with it.
Lerner you may as well give the club away for free. Six years it took you to Fuck it up.
Just like the Cleveland browns. You're a complete failure in the sporting world.
How the hell did you survive in your other  businesses?

Guzan -2
Richards -1
Clarke -2
Hutton -1
Richardson -0
Bacuna -0
Westwood -0
Gana -0
Sinclair - 0 doesn't even come close
Veretout - 3
Ayew - 5
Adama - 5
Gestede - 0
Grealish - 0 (did he even make it over the touchline?!)

Let the fans manage these c##ts till the end of the season, or at the very least pick starting lineups/subs and deal with pre/halftime teamtalks. They need a rocket of international space station proportions up their backsides.

Disgusting. Lack of confidence my fucking arse - You don't need confidence to run your bollocks off and put your body in front of the ball. Every single one of them needs to grow a pair.

[in exile]

I just want this thing over and done with now. The relegation confirmation cannot come soon enough.

The sooner we all think this way the better

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Relegation is too good for this team. Pathetic.

[CJ]

We started very well but several players clearly deflated after their first goal. I always worry when Hutton wanders inside too far from the right touchline.

I always worry when I see Hutton coming out of the tunnel and wander across the touchline. He's a total liability

[saunders_heroes]

Perfect opportunity to get Moyes in and we weren't interested. He'd demand a proper PL budget that's why.

[berneboy]

Leeds, Sheffield Wednesday, Huddersfield - all within easy travelling distance for me next season.
Maybe Sheffield Utd and Bradford too.

[martin o`who??]

Well, at least we can relax and "enjoy" the rest of possibly our final Premiership season, no recovering from this, we will go down a shower of shit and will remain a shower of shit, Randy, save your cash in January - it will make no difference whatsoever, stick your "business model" and your shambles of a bunch of tossers Fox, Amistadt and old mother fucking Reilly somewhere painful, thanks for fucking up my football club, the only people who are glad you came are right now high-fiveing their six fingered brethren at St Andrews, before you go, just one question - How the hell did you manage to drag us down to their level?.

[Nelly]

I'd drop half the first team and play the youth. If they even feign an interest I'd take that as an improvement. Getting in a scuffle when you're getting done over for being shite doesn't count as showing an interest. The cynic in me thinks it's actually a cheap way of pretending to give two fucks.

See you keep saying that, but you haven't even tried to produce any evidence for it.
