This is a pile of wank.
Too many touches, too many passes sideways and backwards.

Considering our 'embarrassment of riches' up front, not one of them is showing any desire.

When Hutton goes on one of those runs the best you can hope for is that he blunders into snoop inner and gets a foul

I wonder what his cross completion stats are like. Single figures?

Is the match as entertaining as Cooper's tweets about that couple rowing in the Square Peg?

No chance, those have been the highlight of Twitter today

Why does Hutton throw himself to the ground all the time? He was in a good position then

Leisurely.  There's a good word to describe Villa just now.

Agreed with this. I don't think it's a lack of desire though - to me they either look nervous or unsure of how each other play. We certainly have a lack of chemistry up front which would suggest the latter.

I don't mind the number of touches I just wish more of them went to someone in our coloured shirts

We're on top, but can't see us scoring.

We're in the claret and blue, Paul. I'll be happy to get to half time all level. We're gash. No idea how to attack.

Lets see if we can at least get a shot on target before HT.

I've never understood why the standard complain of football fans is 'try harder'. The main problem here is surely lack of quality, a clear attacking plan and a degree of confidence
