Stoke v Villa post-match thread

Better in the second half at least.

Roll on August

[Risso]

Better in the second half at least.

Yep, slight signs of recovery, but still not good enough, ultimately.

Next season we will piss this League🥺

[PeterWithesShin]

In fairness it would have been pretty much impossible to be worse than we were in the first half. Stoke were utter wank.

[CJ]

Better second half and but for Butland we could have won it.

[ChicagoLion]

Another awful ref, where do they get them from?
Too many happy to take the money and not give a fuck.
Surely we must have a better option than Holigram, every free kick useles, so why is he on the pitch?

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Down to 11th tonight.

Roll on next season.

[Malandro]

Play the u23s and any player that is likely to be here next season.
Awful.

[PaulWinch again]

Least second half is something to build on.

[SheffieldVillain]

The only players we have at the club definitely and consistently at the standard we should be aiming for are Tuanzebe, Mings, McGinn, Grealish, Tammy and Chester (when fully fit). Only two of them were on the pitch today. It's no surprise we aren't very good.

I hope we can keep Mings for next season, I really like him. The kind of standard we should be going for.

[Gido82]

A game between two very average mid table teams who will be in this league for years.

[PeterWithesShin]

Who'd have thought at the final whistle at Boro that we'd go on a run of W2 D8 L5. We'll go into March having won 1 game in 2019.

[Skerra]

I think if the players had a fraction of the passion we have for the club, we would be in the auto promotion places.

I have a feeling we'll be looking back at Tyrone in the way we do at Robert Snodgrass now.

Even though only on loan, they really understood what playing for us meant, but ultimately they'll get a better offer from a PL club and move on.
