Every post.  Every single post.

I bet they don’t get this on Leeds forums.

Aye, for goodness sake.  There must be better things to do....

Just got back to Liverpool .Would just like to thank the spineless (McGinn the exception) bunch of players wearing the Villa shirts for a performance totally lacking in commitment ,passion and desire. Yet another defeat at home in a cup tie,i honestly do not know why i make the effort when the players can not be bothered to

We're up to Liverpool tomorrow taking my son back to Uni. Love the place since I studied there almost 30 years ago

... at the end of the day these are Bruce's players.

Some of them aren't even our players.

Exactly

Hopefully some of them may be Bruce’s again in a few weeks

Pretty poor all round, on top of it if Abraham is leaving then it’s brown trousers time. A couple of new player would be nice.

It was a torrid afternoon.

Only positives for me were Mcginn and Lansbury who made some telling passes and staked a claim.  O’hare started brightly but faded quickly and was pretty anonymous in second half.

I’ve no real problem with selection.  Who do people expect to play centre half when Chester is carrying an injury and in need of a rest?  I would have preferred BB to Wheelan, but can understand the thinking that ( in theory) Wheelan offers more cover for the makeshift defence.

There was loads of empty seats in Trinity and North - low 30s sounded about right to me.

Do not despair our Chelsea legend JT will advise Abraham that he should stay at Villa ,after all he has known him since he was eight .Wish i believed  that.

Whelan offers no fucking cover. He's utter, utter shite. I hope he was charged £10 to watch Swansea today.

For me Lansbury has to play against Wigan ahead of Whelan.
We’re trying to win games and his passing is desperately needed.

Whelan makes himself available for a pass, holds the midfield shape and does exactly what he’s told to do, that’s why he plays, and has done under most managers he’s played for.

Exactly.  He's poor as piss at everything, and provides no cover or we wouldn't be conceding two to three goals a game. If he's not even doing the basic things he's expected to, his complete lack of anything else makes it like we're playing with 10 men.  9, if you then add Hogan in.
