Watford v Aston Villa post match thread

[CJ]

That was shockingly bad - from selection, to performance, to lack of effort or even pride. I wouldn't give Smith any more money - he'd still pick Wesley and play Jack out of position. Trouble is, given our current position it's going to be hard to attract either decent players or a decent replacement for Smith. I think we're well and truly fucked.

We lacked energy, pace, nous and flair. Oh, and discipline.
Everything else was fine.

There clearly was truth in the rumours that the players were having meetings from which Smith was excluded.  As somebody said they played today as though they wanted him sacked.

[Goldie.7]

Leave now, your level is Walsall and Brentford, take Terry with you as well... GO!

[AV82EC]

Catastro fucking omnishambles.

If Smith survives this I’ll be amazed.

Time to move from worried to extremely worried.

Smith stood in the tunnel at the end there, like he was about to go to war with the players. A post above mentioned that there's something not right in the camp.

For once I'll be genuinely interested to hear what Smith has to say post-match. If he mentions effort or the officials I'll be raging.

This is very worrying.

So much for the Norwich win giving the team some confidence, never thought for a moment we would go onto win, when they went down to 10 men, sorry Dean you've gotta to go.

Steven Gerrard for me. He'd get the team fired up.

Well the players meetings certainly didn’t bring an upturn in performances. They are equally to blame with one or two exceptions. Awful

For some reason or other something seems to have happened between Smith and the players. We are no longer a unit. No idea how we have come to this.

Where did these rumours come from?

[Singapore Villa]

Fuck me.  That was horrific.

What a rabble.......It was like they just met in the car park before the game.

Something is clearly wrong in the dressing room as there was a clear lack of effort out there today.

[auntiesledd]

Clueless, gutless, and completely unacceptable. It’s time to stick somebody else in the manager’s office - in a bid to sort out this utter feckin’ shambles. Sorry Dean: you’re completely out of your depth. Next!
