Arsenal v Aston Villa match thread

[ktvillan]

I turned the stream off with 15 mins left because I could see we were trying our darndest to chuck it away.
 Totally fucking unacceptable to be losing  after leading against 10 men.  We're not fit enough and that's down to Smith, and yet he won't put the subs on.  Fucking idiot.

[Edvard Remberg]

FUCK OFFF

[Ian.]

Bollocks. Proper fucked that up.

[richtheholtender]

We’ve always been a team that lose 3-2 in games where we’ve been in control. This is no shock.

[Villa in Denmark]

Fuck OFF!

[ironmaidenmania]

If Smith doesn't turn this around quickly he'll be gone, and that may be the only way we can try and stay up. Totally inflexible to make subs. Why were we so tired when we had the extra time! Dreadful and this is what I expected. If this goes on we'll be down by Christmas.

Very, very poor!

[Pete3206]

That's the worst game management I've seen for many a year.

Some of those players will need to take a look at themselves as well. Lost their heads.

[The Edge]

We were denied a definite pen. I dont understand what the fuck VAR is for?

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Can't see the owners being happy about all this after spending £180 million.

[Chris Stares]

Haven't seen any of the game but I just knew it would be down to poor game management. Shades of Sherwood against Leicester when we were 2 up and lost 3-2?

[aj2k77]

Fucking hell, what a bunch of over the top babies.

[Damo70]

I am not happy with was has happened today but some people are going a bit over the top regarding Dean Smith. We are a newly promoted side who have just lost away to Arsenal who have qualified for Europe one way or another for donkeys years.

[Flin5tone]

inviting pressure when 2-1 against 10 men, just like against West Ham

If Bruce made these decisions he'd get slaughtered , what the fucks Smith playing at

[themossman]

Take your point but it’s the nature of the defeat (self inflicted) that makes this one so piss poor.

I’d have taken a one goal loss before the game but the way I see it the players got us in a great position, helped by the red card, and smith let them down.

How are they, they had 10 men, the crowd on their back, they fucked up against Watford last week, it's not like they're the Arsenal of old. We threw the points away, Arsenal didn't have to do much to win them.
