To be the worst Villa left back in recent years takes some doing. He looked bereft of any ability whatsoever. In that clip he gets beaten easily, then just gives up. Abysmal player, needs bomb squadding immediately.

getting done by skill happens. The lack of effort afterwards is unnaceptable.

I guess it's time to start thinking about what kind of club we are now.

No more talk about where Villa 'should' be; those days are long gone.

It was great skill that did Taylor, his giving up was awful mind, what really gets me is the amount of defenders we have in the box and only 1 made any real effort to try and actually defend.

A number of players should be taking a long hard look at themselves tonight, big question is are many of them really that bothered.

Quite concerning that Smith's solution to the lack of fluidity was to bring on Whelan. That's like popping a handful of Imodium to cure your constipation.

People are surprised because the same bunch of players, minus Grealish, looked so good just a few weeks ago and outplayed three very decent teams at this level.

Jesus that’s criminal. Like you say slowing down instead of busting a gut to stop their player having a free cross is disgraceful.

Downing-esque.

“Sometimes I have to take some responsibility myself,” said Smith.

... words ... some more words ... it was the ref’s fault.

Lazy, uncommitted, powderpuff.

Our recent downturn is incredible.

[pauliewalnuts]

That was pathetic.

Observe, also, Hourihane unable to summon up enough energy to block the shot when he's stood 5 feet away.

Pathetic.

You remember when we got relegated and we said we had to get out of this division quickly otherwise we’d turn in to one of those big clubs yearning for the old days and stuck without the premier league money forever? (Sheffield weds, Forest, Leeds until this season) We are now in that category.

This is worrying. What’s going on behind closed doors that has changed things? It can’t just be Grealish being out.

[pauliewalnuts]

How about this?

Kortney Hause and Glen Whelan, ladies and gentlemen.

Still extremely poor though!!! With the exception of Grealish
