Sheffield Wednesday v Aston Villa Post Match Thread

[McGraths Dry Cleaning]

When are we going to turn the corner? Early days but we need to play better otherwise VP is going to be awful. My eldest is 5 and I really hoped to take him to a few more games this season to get him into it.

Definitely need new faces in this side,  but i think there looks a good base to work from.  We deserved something from the game, but ultimately its a defeat.

[Pete3206]

Sam the mouse, 100% agree

[nick harper]

We missed our one on one and they scored theirs. Fine margins but I thought we were good in the second half.

[nodge]

Hutchinson for them could have been booked 3 times or twice and sent off once at least. The way it is with us at the moment I'm just surprised he didn't score the winner

[Leicester_Villian]

Westwood seemed the only one prepared to shoot today ..........

[Flamingo Lane]

As well as a terrible clearance kick by Gollini it was a terrible throw to Cissokho and then a terrible pass by said full back. Amateurs.

Did slightly better than i predicted. Shows where I think we are really - an average lower mid-table championship team who aren't gonna win much away. People have to realise we finished 15+ points behind Norwich who look much better than us already. going to take half the season before we see an big improvement if and when new players come in. . Hopefully this will strengthen RDM's hands to get the players he needs.

Gotta love how Bacuna and Westwood get slaughtered as usual despite Gardner being comfortably the worst player on either side and both, Bacuna especially, were involved in nearly everything good we did in attack.

[PaulMcGrathsNo5Shirt]

Hutton, Bacuna, Cissokho, Gardner not good enough. Westwood is ok for the squad as is Gestede. McCormack looked decent despite lack of sharpness, Ayew looked good as did Baker. Like Elphick - we finally have a leader. Grealish needs to be given a chance and I'm sure he will. Lots of changes still needed in what I feel will be a transition season.

[Matt Collins]

As I said beforehand, it's quite hard to see how you get ayew, grealish and McCormack into the same side. We even had to sacrifice ayew a bit today, though grealish was on the bench

I thought green looked quite good when he came on

[CT Villan]

On the whole we did ok...weak links were Gardner and our fullbacks.

[TonyD]

Just get some new players by next weekend. Please rid us of Cissokho, Westwood and Bacuna.

This this and this ...

[PeterWithesShin]

And if Wednesday are one of the best sides in the division we don't have too much to worry about, they were crap apart from Forestieri.

[Richard]

First game no need to panic - if that's the best team in the league I honestly fancy us to be there or thereabouts.

However two or three obvious weaknesses - full back central mid and centre forward. Fix those and we will be fine.
