How did we not win that, and more to the point, how did we not lose that.

Not really sure what to make of that, poor decision making at times, great going forward, wank at the back but entertaining throughout.

So much to be positive about but so much work to be done and most of that cannot start until Jan.
But we wanted entertainment and we're getting it.

we only got ourselves to blame for that last goal

against 10 men passing it back fucking about and basically inviting them on to us which was rediculous when you have a man extra
the game is there for the taking but we blew it

That's entertainment....but it's not goalkeeping.

We were just so easy to play through

Yes the defence is shit. But the midfield really as offering zero protection.

I got absolutely sick of watching people just waltz past hourihane

Nyland will rightly get stick but what was in front of him was no better.

I know we didn't win, but I'm kind of into this new Villa.

We badly need Bjarni back to actually do the covering work in midfield. Their fifth stemmed from Conor not doing his job.

Fuck it, give me a 5-5 over hoping to nick it 1-0 every day of the week. There is not a single side in this league that wants to face us going forwards, i'm convinced we'll stick 7 or 8 past someone this season.

Embarrassing to be honest. A comedy game showing up every weakness we have in all its glory especially that absolute fucking liability Nyland. Get rid fucking sharpish and take the piss with a bid for Johnstone on Jan 1.
Abraham and Grabban are a class apart from the rest of this league, the rest of our shower of shit can fuck right off especially that invisible twat Hourihane.

Where on earth do you start with that?

Sensational from abraham, McGinn, Bolasie,

Very good from el ghazi, Hutton, tuanzebe and Taylor

Hourihane provided all the defensive midfielder protection of a traffic cone

Chester cost us another goal

Nyland faced five shots and conceded five goals. The last two goals were his fault

I think our offside goal was onside

We've got to sort this defence out though. We've been very lucky of late and we can't keep riding our luck like that

You must have been unbearable to live with when Potato was manager if that’s how you react after a really good game where we’ve scored 5 goals.

Enjoy the entertainment and forget about the negatives for a bit. You might find you like it.
