Aston Villa vs Leicester City Match Thread

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Leicester are better than us, by a country mile. Our only chance is to out-compete. Needs a Herculean effort

They are rather good, aren't they. I've been very impressed with them. They attack with such speed and all look comfortable on the ball.
Regarding the penalty, yes it hit his hand but would have hit his head after and as it didn't seem deliberate it was a harsh call.
We are doing okay but just don't look like ever scoring. Nothing new there. As much as it pains me to say it, maybe Gestede is worth a shout as Kozak is getting nothing in this game.

It ain't looking good.

That was crap but wasn't Vardy offside for their goal?

Yeah. Not even mentioned it on Sky.

And as if Tim Sherwood is doing the game for Sky.

You can't be offside from a goal kick (apparently).
So our defenders fell woefully asleep.

[Marton]

No worries...we got a strong bench and are savy with the subs. Oh wait...

[Goldie.7]

I think we need to get angry with the players again to wake the fuckers up

No point, they already think putting in one good shift every couple of months will be okay.

Looking at the goal again that really was fcukin shit from lescott

To be fair, my mind would be elsewhere if I'd been offered 3 years in California.

I'd have rid of him ASAP.

Paddy Power have Villa at 14-1. I had a silly £1

[jwarry]

He's going to have to change it because there is no way this lot are going to score 2 goals against them

[ldavfc4eva]

Early goal for us and we have a chance, an early one for them and it's goodnight.

Nice positive start please lads.

Come on!

[aev]

They are everything organised, disciplined, committed and brave. I think apart from their stand out players of Mahrez, Schmiecel and Vardy there isn't too much talent wise between the teams.

[Flamingo Lane]

Shameful lack of awareness - or just fucking laziness - from Lescott on the goal.  Lescott runs as if he's left his walking stick at home.

[Nelly]

One thing that always makes me feel a bit sick is the huge corporate area in the Trinity always totally empty after half time while the rest of the stands are packed with people.

[brontebilly]

Getting completely outfought and outplayed. The only kick Ayew has had was on the back of Mahrez calf. Veretout aside the rest look poor particularly the leaden footed Gil and Kozak

[1_Pablo_Angel]

That was absolutely no where near as bad as some on here are making out. Shit penalty decision aside, vardy went through and they scored as a result. Kozac went through and we didn't. If Lescott had tracked  back we would be going in 0-0.

Agree with this. It's happened a lot this season though, we look OK then the defence fuck things up. Was woeful from Lescott.

[jd_villa]

jeez were seriously shite at crossing a football

[aj2k77]

Is that fucking lightweight Grealish still out?
