Aston Villa v Barnsley - Match Thread

[jwarry]

Make or break time for Bruce now.  A repeat of recent second half performances will not be acceptable. He has no choice but to go for it.  If he does with any luck he might actually stumble on something that works 🤡

[Nelly]

KODJIA!!!! Hutton Assist!! Come on!

Adomah assist.

Apologies, the radio said Hutton. Twice!

Whats sad is I have zero belief we can win any game we go behind in. Even if it is Barnsley at home.

I'd go three at the back with arracking wing backs second half 😳.........

Bruce is changing everything ever two second, I wouldn't put it past him. He seems to be having a meltdown at the moment.

He has walked out before so there is hope.....

[Tuscans]

anything on TV?

Sky showing all the goals as they go in. Will be online later.

They did, but easy mistake to make as they do look alike......

Yeah I heard that. Sky showed the goal, Hutton was about to cross ( would never of reached Kodjia if ) but passed to Adomah who put the corss in and Kodjia stabbed it in.

get grealish off

He's played ok. Played a part in our goal.

He has and we have been OK in general.  Shape looks a lot better and although we haven't created that much, we've still worked the keeper quite a bit.  Just look a bit low on confidence.  Couldn't see from the North Stand whether it was a pen, but it looked soft.

Could be worse - you could be a Barcelona fan. They are losing 2-0

My heart bleeds for them.

Yes, but they can hardly be bothered to clap when they score.

The problem with Bruce is he'll take off Amavi and Hutton only to put on Green and Bacuna. In doing so create a completely unbalanced side but an offensive initiative. We KILLED RDM for doing it, Bruce should be no different.

He hasn't created any sort of system in his time here, even with all of his resources and buying power. VERY worrying.

It would force our hand I suppose.

We need a goal in the first 15 minutes.

No idea what is wrong at our club,it  seems to me that neither does that nice fella Mr Bruce.
Such a shame,its looking like a long walk off a short plank time.
