Norwich City vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Chris Harte]

Just seen the highlights.

Non-existant marking on each goal, Guzan unable to hold onto routine shots from distance, Clark dawdling on the ball and presenting opportunities to the opponents.

Ian Wright and Alan Shearer have got us down as relegation certainties and when you see that they saw you can't really argue.

I had hope of us achieving somethnig after the West Ham game but this season really is a death by a thousand cuts.

If we also, sorry, I mean when we lose to Sunderland, as I've mentioned in previous posts, I would not spend a penny in January. Just save the money, start looking for Championship players who will be battle over a very long season. With the number of matches we will have to play and, the fact that our players go down quicker than a whore and are injured for weeks on end, we are going to need a very big squad indeed. The better players in our current squad will no doubt have release clauses in their contracts and, the rest are definatly not up for the fight that is the Championship. Unless we get the required players I fear for our once great club.

One or two have disagreed with my point of view previously and, in fact pointed out to me that, starting with the West Ham (Reserves) game, we would get at least 7 out of the 9 available points in the 3 matches. I did point out that the problem with that theory was that a team has to be able to score goals to win a match and, I for one, can never see where our next goal is coming from.

As regards to Remi, I initially thought we had at last made the right decision and was really encouraged with his initial team selections. Since then, he has gone down the same path as other managers, by making very weird and, getting more bewildering by the week with his selections. Let's face it, a good percentage of us could not have gotten many less points than Remi at a fraction of his salary (Are you reading this Mr Lerner!!!???)

It's been many a year since we've had a first choice keeper as poor as Guzan. His release then re-call a month or so later just about sums up the problems at Villa under Lerner. We won't pay the going rate for Premier League footballers which is the cause of our humiliating decline.

Don't know if I have the stomach to even tune into the Sunderland match. If we thought today's team selection was bad then God forbid on Saturday minus Ayew, Sanchez still, Okore, Westwood.

At least we will have Sissokho back! Oh joy.

i hope I never have to see Clark Bacuna or Richadrson again.

I fear I will be on the 2nd January!

Shearer summed it up by saying players are cheating when commenting on Richardson just standing there when they scored their second.

I don't really see the logic in thinking that the best way to get out of the Championship is to buy Championship players.

Don't you give yourself a better chance by having better players than the other clubs?

You'll be quite bloated and uncomfortable by the end of next month if you don't.

[langleylions]

For anybody who went what was our fans reaction towards the end to our players and the club etc.pretty poisonous I heard.

I'm surprised they laid into Richards as well. He is after all a Proper Football Man. Being English.

I think it is death by eleven ******.

[preston28]

Richards is a shit centre back. Has no positional sense at all, goes chasing around like a fucking Labrador.

[Risso]

Richards is dire, and an absolute tosser as well.  He's already been banned this season after his fuckwittery against Swansea in the tunnel, so on returning and giving a frankly pathetic display, as our captain he apparently thought it would be a good idea to partake in a 5 minute shoveathon, the brain dead moron. 

Ayew has the permanent look on his face of not quite believing that he has to play with such a collection of misfits.

He is a more athletic Baker they both make last ditch tackles which seem like good defending when the truth is they have to do that to make up for piss poor positional play.

There is a reason no club wanted Micah as a CB ...
