Aston Villa vs Southampton Match Thread

Did we actually sign Wesley, or did he win a competition on a packet of Rice Crispies?

[Chris_Jephcott]

SCORE!

[Axl Rose]

Kodjia looking sharp.

Get in Jack. Stunning.

[BoVillan esq]

Jack you beauty

[GarTomas]

I’ll weigh in with some blind optimism and say we’re going to win 4-3

I'll have what you're having, mate!

It’s on!!!

[AsTallAsLions]

Grealish grabs a consolation.

[Toronto Villa]

and there’s your silver lining con job goal by Jack which Dean will use to say we didn’t play that badly and only lost by two

[TonyD]

Luiz pings a ball into the box, cleared by Wesley.

Ha ha.  He really is an asset for the opposition’s defence.  I think Gabby could play better even now.

Grealish scores

[pauliewalnuts]

Kodjia has shown five times the application Wesley has.

jack class

[Rudy Can't Fail]

No pace, no movement, no urgency, body language of the team is fucking awful, utterly predictable coming forward.

Too many players who are not good enough at this level, and - I am starting to think - a manager in the same class.

Mentally, as a team they have developed to rely on Grealish to do everything. Players aren't accepting their own responsibility to create so that when Grealish doesn't deliver, we're a team without a compass. That and we have too many players that were bought to develop and others that are Championship quality at best.

And just to prove my point..

[BoVillan esq]

Pick that mother out.

Jack you beauty!  Fantastic strike.

[JUAN PABLO]

shame we will be losing him
