Don't panic folks, we're obviously lulling Derby into a false sense of dominance. It's all part of Bruce's cunning plan - before we blitz 'em in the second half.

Don’t deserve to be losing this game, the fact we are is all our own work. Don’t know what game some of you are watching but I thought we played well but without a cutting edge

We’ve not really created much of anything though despite the possession. It’s all pretty without much end product.

The possession is all very Lambertesque

Not sure what some of your laptops are showing. Utter bollocks? We've bossed them bar a daft pass back by Whelan.

No movement in front of the ball, and slow slow passing.

Jesus Christ. Get a flipping grip and stop traumatising people with what that wanker doled out as football.

We’ve done next to nothing with the possession. How many shots has the keeper had to save?

I'm not sure if that was our good half or our bad one.

This result (on safe assumption we lose) and the last 2 are all down to poor transfers and squad management. He can moan all he wants about bad luck with Hutton and Davis but despite all the money we’ve spent we dont have one fit, decent striker or two proper centre backs. An absurd situation to find ourselves in based on a series of dumb ass sales and purchases.

Gabby needs to come on and drag that tugboat Keogh down a channel or two. Onomah is dropping deep.

They can't pick up Grealish with the position he's taking up and running at them, he needs somebody up there to create space and give an option for a pass.

These are defending two solid banks 20-25 yards from goal like an away side.

This isn’t the worst Villa display but we don’t take enough shots on goal and get into dangerous positions. Since the Burton game we’ve scored 13 times in 11 games. 11.5 if you include this one. It’s not good enough.

Playing 6 midfielders is a great way to out possess teams whilst losing, let’s do it every week.

We are giving the ball away too cheaply, there isn't a lot of movement up front other than Jack, we have no tempo, no passion or desire, Derby are winning all of the second ball and we are making Curtis Davies, Tom Huddlestone and Ted Nugent look like superstars.

Other than that we're great.

We're playing 7 midfielders. Unless you are being incredibly obtuse you'd recognise that Jedinak is playing at centre half and Onomah up top.

Some of you need to go Christmas shopping.

Back out now. Let's twat these cloggers.
