Arsenal v Aston Villa match thread

[villadelph]

Fucking assholes

[Toronto Villa]

We will now lose two fucking games playing against 10 men with a lot of time left in the game. Absolutely pathetic

[Ger Regan]

Absolutely shit game management from smith, again. It's what has concerned me for longer than this season, and he needs to fucking sort it out.

[Kimaster1976]

Fuming! Exactly the same shit that happenned at Tottenham but against 10 men this time.

We had the game won and in total control to get more then on the hour decide to do nothing but defend and get beat.

[PaulWinch again]

It’s a fucking pathetic effort. Twice against 10 men, awful.

[CT]

Completely throwing this away.

[Three Spires Villa]

In the lead twice against 10 men!! And end with nothing. Dean Smith and coaches, wise up quickly, this is not the championship. I don’t want to be the plucky new boys, I am concerned

[Axl Rose]

Now he brings on a sub. Fucking hell, Dean.

[PeterWithesShin]

We're knackered because we have so little of the ball, against 10 men for so long and still less than 40% possession.

[chrisw1]

Just fucking pathetic.

[kippaxvilla2]

For such a good coach and reader of the game it’s amazing he cannot see the obvious at times.  Game was crying out for Conor and Davis.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

No excuses. Another game we should have won against 10 men. Unacceptable!

[SoccerHQ]

Dean Smith needs a damned good kicking for this. They were tired and needed a change about 15/20 minutes ago. He really needs to think about his tactics because I'm sorry this should be won and done by now.

Very poor.

Worst thing for me is this isn't the first time. Was exactly the same v Spurs and even on Monday I didn't think his use of subs was clever.

Premier league is ruthless and seems to me he still is game managing like we're playing v likes of Bolton and Rotherham, games you can win in second gear.

As good as many other aspects of his management style are, you need to be quick at game changing options at this level if you really want to be at the top.

[Meanwood Villa]

They were there for the taking and we've fucked it

[PeterWithesShin]

We have a pen VAR review
