Doomed Aston Villa vs Bournemouth misery thread

[QuintonVilla]

Genuinely one of the worst starting lineups I've seen us put out. Absolutely shocking.

That team would be bottom half in the Championship.

[avfcpg]

Do they just pick them out of a hat these days...where's gil and vertoute? Can we just hurry up and get someone in who at least half knows what they are doing...

"This game has been relentless. The fans haven't had a breather, they're after the referee every opportunity. The atmosphere is red-hot and to be fair to the players  of both sets have really responded to it."


cor what's that like then?

Ah, for the good old days when you could watch an exciting game where either side could actually win.

What do you mean? That game in the League Cup against Notts County earlier in the season was proper end to end stuff.

[Toronto Villa]

That side has "We want to get fucking battered again" written all over it.

I was thinking the same.  No consistency in personnel or positions they play.  Team selection is like a cup draw.

I refuse to believe that if Black picked a side today out a hat it would have been as bad as that.

[dave shelley]

Mr Black, do us all a favour and fuck off asap.

[Yossarian]

There must be something we don't know. Why would you pick that team otherwise.

[KevinGage]

With Bacuna and Richardson providing the attacking guile from the flanks, we will be unstoppable.

Fair point, I enjoyed that one!

[Axl Rose]

Mr Black, do us all a favour and fuck off asap.

Yes. Well said. I completely agree

Oh yes, of course when that PL team was matched up against that team from the fourth tier?

[clash city rocker]

I honestly believe the chuckle brothers could pick a better team.

The club obviously questioned the veracity of EB's sick note
