Aston Villa v Huddersfield Town Post-Match Thread

[Matt Collins]

It was still fucking unlucky though!

Interested how we play at derby. I assume Jedinak plays. But can we afford four attackers away from home against one of our rivals? I'm not sure we can.  Not sure who gets dropped though

[Steve67]

We will win at Derby, due an away win.  Jedinak in for Westwood. We really need another mobile forward and better options than Gardner and Green off the bench.  Two games unbeaten, build on that.

Sheff Weds getting turned over by Burton shows what a topsy turvy league this is.

[LukeJames]

Mentality is fucked, should have been 3-0 up playing confidently, they have one attack and we collectively shit ourselves and spend the next half an hour being second to every ball and standing off them.

The referee was absolutely bollocks, making the most of his big day out at a nice stadium and making himself centre of attention.

The league isn't topsy-turvy it's just shite.

I'm fucking steaming. Absolutely furious.

Talking as someone who hardly watches football anymore, I thought we were desperately unlucky. The first half was as good as I've seen for ages and the atmosphere was superb. It was like someone turned off the magic tap in the second half and it was not if, it was when. Comical and so totally Villa. I still think we'll win the league though so fuck the fuckers.

[Risso]

What a terrible, terrible goal.  Fucking shit.  Cheers Elphick and Gollini, again.

We won't win the league unless we start putting sides away. Chances wasted against Wednesday and Huddersfield and the result is we end up dropping at least one in the first and two tonight against the most ordinary of opposition.

Norwich showing how it's done.

That bench was woeful. We need another one in midfield along with Jedinak and some pace up front.

Jedinak for Gestede, have Ayew leading the line away from home. Gestede to come in. Need to try playing three in midfield I think particularly away from home against the half decent teams. Amavi maybe too instead of Cissokho.

I'd consider bring Gabby back into the squad  too, last chance saloon. If he turns in an effort like Richards at Luton, he can do one.

We need to bring in somebody else up top with pace. Wells for example, Gabby has had his day.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Blimey that is some shit defending for their goal. I am miffed.

If Lescott and Guzan had been responsible for that clown defending they'd have been hung.

I rate Amavi, but watching that game tonight I started to think he might not be cut out to play full-back in this league. Saying that I might have brought him on to play left-midfield. And/or maybe brought Hutton on and pushed Bacuna into midfield. Shows how short of options we are I suppose.

Yeah I thought the defender could have dealt with it as well.

Can't believe we didn't win. We should have been out of sight at half time, and that missed chance right on the stroke of half time was the key moment. Score that and we would have won comfortably but they got the bit between their teeth second half.
Plus point - I really like Tshibola.
Westwood needs to be replaced asap.
