Derby 2-0 Useless Aston Villa post match thread

[TonyD]

It’s not just under Bruce we can’t do the basics. It’s been years since we have looked like competent footballing side.

[Clampy]

I didnt think we played that bad to be honest

Of course you didn't.

And your point is?

[kippaxvilla2]

How about everyone knocks off the petty point scoring.  Debate and disagree with each other as much as you want, but this petty shite stops now.

Get her.  Joke by the way.

First away since Cardiff.

Record against the team's above us....Wolves away lost, Cardiff away Lost, Bristol City away Draw, Derby away Lost. Not great is it?

Observations....Grealish was the best player on the pitch. Whelan played well until his mistake. Looked fairly solid at the back but Taylor was abysmal going forward. When we got near the box the midfielders were looking for a striker who wasn't there. Never looked like scoring although Hogan looked sharp to be fair.

What has happened to our away support? Good numbers as always but not that noisy. Limited songs, reminding me of Everton, two songs.....come on youngsters get it sorted!!!!

I didnt think we played that bad to be honest but we didn't look like scoring. We seemed to try and walk it in at times instead of shooting. Disapointed but we're still amongst it.

The play offs.

I get the point, but I think it's close to an oxymoron in the context of what our ambition/should be. If we don't look like scoring we are by definition playing badly given what we're trying to achieve this season.

Always looked like a loss with Davis out.

Would like to see O’Hare playing more in this situation. Hogan seems a waste of space.

Hogan is a waste of space in a Bruce team. There's a player there, but as we're currently constituted I'd rather see Dave Lee Travis play Macbeth.

I take your point SE, but I would rather see Clodagh Rodgers play Goneril.

I was there today, and I would have to say that we were not up to much.  Not quite ghastly but erring on the side of mediocrity.

We have some players who should be more than good enough for that division.

We have a manager who knows to the players strengths. Davis was taken ill overnight, so we will put Onomah, who I think will be a fine centre midfielder but not an attacking one, gets chosen to be centre forward. His response must have been WTF, and many she people would have thought WTF themselves. However, it gives the manager a chance to involve the supposed best trainer Jack Grealish, who also happens to be a very good player.

I just hope the manager can realise he has decent players and tries to be more offensive

I spent the afternoon consulting  NF C 15-100, the French electricity wiring regulations. I then rewired our bedroom to add 6 plugs. I completely forgot about the game. I wasn't shocked at the result though.

What a toothless,gutless, poor performance that was.If we didn’t have the best keeper in the league it could have been five or six. Just depressing.

Why are you reviewing the Millwall game from last week?

Agree that our youngsters should be given more gametime, preferably ahead of Onomah.
Hogan actually had a really good headed effort that perhaps should have done better, and his movement up front made a bit of a difference.
But, crumbs of comfort for what was a poor performance.

One thing’s for sure - Whelan had shit shoes on, the shitty shoe’d bastard
