Aston Villa vs Barnsley
Championship
Tuesday 14 February, 19:45
Villa Park

...in which we all come up with perfectly sensible line ups / formations and then the manager selects a team that no one can understand

Whatever you do Steve, please no Elphick

0-0, 5 at the back, by passing the midfield, Kodjia trying to do it all alone, Hogan getting more frustrated by the game, getting dragged closer to the relegation places, post match people still burying there heads in the sand and throwing round words such as stability, continuity and gel.

If this can't be at least given a run for a few matches, it looks the most obvious of line ups to me.

0-0, 5 at the back, bypassing the midfield, Kodjia trying to do it all alone, Hogan getting more frustrated by the game, getting dragged closer to the relegation places, post match people still getting their knickers in a twist and throwing round words such as sack him, short term solution and Xia's naivety.

Well in the Championship the suffering is relentless. Another game so quickly. A dreary 0-0.

Fuck it. I'm not interested in this game. I'm still fizzing that they meekly surrendered our unbeaten home record.

With our away record? And the inane ability of finding a way to lose? I'm growing tired of this whole situation.
