Aston Villa v Brentford Post-Match Thread

[Legion]

just watching Traore at Boro , looks frightening . Shame we have not got him instead of  Elmo but to be fair he would be playing crap under Bruce like all the other good players we seem to buy . 

You do recall how fucking useless he was for us right ?

Most of the players we have had recently have been.

I can't recall many that were as bad as him personally

Just a bit of a sweeping generalisation. Can't think of all that many over the last few years who have been any good for us after showing a degree of talent before we signed them and after they have moved on.

However let's not forget Boro got relegated last season and Traore was just as useless for them as he was for us.

he played about 150minutes for us as an 18 year in a new country for a club that were in freefall, that's not making excuses it's saying that we barely saw him and most of the time we did was the last few minutes of a game we'd already lost.

Johnstone saved us from total embarrasment. The only positive on a totally shit afternoon.

Forgot to say, what the hell are the song words all about on the big screens? "Villa Villa" and "yippee aye ay yippee aye ohhh". Jesus Christ. Never mind the result, we've become Reading or Bolton. Tinpot.

I could really be annoyed at Mr Bruce, for putting our kids out there and not giving them any support, "shit management" then when he has to make changes takes the our best find in a decade off (I'm sure that's done the kid loads for his confidence)

When surely having another striker up long side him would of helped the whole team, but what do I know.

Hungry? Thirsty? Buy some of our shit pies and piss water.

Individually and collectively crap. Green, Onamah and Davis all now injured which confirms my view that you need to handle young players carefully at this stage of their development. There needs to be a huge response from manager, coaches and players on Tuesday otherwise things will turn nasty.

I thought they already had.

Even the Doctor would seem to have seen enough, seeing his tweets on yesterday

I agree. Years ago I thought the 'Cascarino in the air' on the scoreboard was tinpot too. It wouldn't have been quite so bad if they had only used it when he had actually scored with a header.

A Bolton moment?

It is always a bad sign when the catering starts getting criticised. It doesn't seem to matter so much when a team is doing well.
