Villa v Newcastle match thread

[PeterWithesShin]

Didn't think we were too bad to start with but last 10 mins has been very disjointed. We still look more like individuals than a team to me.

I'm really not convinced by Elphick

[Tuscans]

WOW, all over the fucking shop

[Villa in Denmark]

I have to say, this looks pretty disorganised and unthreatening to me.

It looks like football for the visually impaired, where we've still got the blindfolds on, but some bastard has taken the bell out of the ball.

[pauliewalnuts]

I'm really not convinced by Elphick

Nor me.

For all the talk about how he's a leading by example, shed blood for the cause skipper, he doesn't actually look particularly impressive when you see him play.

[brontebilly]

this is straight from the tactics Tim school, this could be RDM's last game in charge if Newcastle start turning the screw

[TonyD]

Shite.  Utter shite. 

[Marton]

Has Westwood touched it yet?

How can you give that to them! Sit on the ball and get a free kick

The little things...

He has pointed at least twice...thats as good as we get.

[Dazvillain]

Last year we were poor but expected it. This year it's more frustrating as we are still poor but didn't expect it

[Stu]

RDM doesn't really have an idea how he wants us to play.

[Tuscans]

A slow and sloppy midfield doing basically nothing to make a mark on the game .... OFF REF!!!

[Matt Collins]

A great example of why bacuna isn't great in midfield there. He can't deal with the ball when he isn't motoring down The line

Elphick has been really roper in recent games

[ozzjim]

How is that not red??

[Villa in Denmark]

I'm really not convinced by Elphick

I am.

I'm convinced he's not the answer.

[kippaxvilla2]

That is a red card in every game not involving Aston Villa.
