Aston Villa vs Blackburn Match Thread

Bruce has got to take some of the blame. This was so obviously not the way to line up today. Its weird

[Hampshire Villa]

maybe the pace is deliberately slow to make Lardy look quick when he comes on for 10 minutes!

I hate being in this festering cesspit of a division.

Sounds like we have no width. I'd like to have seen Green on the bench, as he would give us an option.

Getting very tired of saying the worst half of football ever at Villa park this season😳

We should be grateful. If we'd played like this against a Premier League team we'd be 3-0 down by now.

No streams, four pages of match thread by half time, no goals, no excitement.

Life in the championship

I thought some said it would be more fun!

Problem was with McCormack up he didn't work off the ball to put their three under pressure. Now Kodjia has moved Grealish hasn't got into it on the left although they've gone back to four at the back.

McCormack just isn't that sort of player which is why it was so odd

Is kodjia up top now then?

5 pages for a match thread so far!! it must be bad. Come on Villa just win.

Could be a game for gestede (but also for RHM I think)

Monsieur Kamara of sky sports Villa much better this half.
