Brighton vs Aston Villa Match Thread

[Mellin]

This site is comedy gold. Three at the back isn't working so change to 4. A couple of weeks ago it was why stick with 4 at the back when it clearly isn't working.

Different formations work against different teams. 3 at the back worked against Burnley. It's obviously not today. We just don't have the bollocks to change it.

Although you could argue no formation would work with these players at this moment.

They are scrapping for every ball and we are powder puff. We desperately need some hard players

[Taylor]

Smith is going the right way to become the worst manager we have had since Gerard Houllier.

What a ridiculous thing to say.

McLeish wins that all day long.

Drinkwater with the conversion.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Targett failing the tricky five yard pass test there.

Targett's only playing to make Drinkwater look good.

[PaulWinch again]

We’re not the fucking Danny Drinkwater reclamation project.

Nzonzi? We can all see it, Smith can't.

[pauliewalnuts]

Drinkwater rolling with a 67% pass accuracy so far.

[Legion]

Any chance of a couple of scorchios please PWS?

The worst, most worrying, most depressing thing about this isn't the general ineptitude, it is the near total lack of spirit.

I was just thinking that.  There's been no reaction to the Man City result at all.

Certainly does look like the towel has been thrown in.

Sherwood without trying, which incidentally he didn't.

[Sexual Ealing]

Co-commentator asking why we aren't playing two strikers. Jesus Christ.

Remi Garde for me.
