Bournemouth v Aston Villa Post Match Thread

Yes agreed, he got nowhere near the ball and clattered Engels.

[Toronto Villa]

Davis a positive?  The man can't finish, his control is ropey and hes constantly injured.  If that's our silver lining we really are fucked.

Davis did well.

No he didn't. Only a hat trick Thierry Henri-esque in the 37 minutes game time he got would satisfy some of our supporters.

Would it be too much to have him score once? We don’t need him to become Henry.

[LukeJames]

These 2 results against these could well fuck us.

[MalcolmP]

At least we are not in the bottom 3.  That’s about all you can say.

We will be. A absolutely pathetic result. Ten men against one kf the worsf teams in the league yet we should ahve lost 3-1.

Too many shit performances.  Worst player on the pitch was guilbert. All of his  crosses didnt beat the first man.

Hause mings were also pathetic.  Luiz was shit and grealish was shit.

Samatta davis targett only ones who walk out with any pride today.

Why the fuck ws grealish playing so Deep???  Smith has alot ti answr for fir that garbage today.

Grealish was best player on the pitch by a country mile - get back on the tablets you noob

The hope is that today's result proves a fatal blow to Watford's confidence and they go on a disastrous run. Would only need to find one more team to finish above then.

Think they'll beat Brighton next week. In the long run that might actually turn out to be good for us as Brighton still have to play likes of Liverpool and Man. City at home and they hardly ever win away.

The only time we looked threatening was when he was on the pitch.

Apart from that, it's "give it to Jack" and hope he'll deliver.

That's been our tactic all season....

It would be most teams tactics as well, get your best players one of the best in the league, on the ball as quickly as you can and as high up the pitch as you can.

This has somehow reverted as a criticism, which is bizarre.

[Axl Rose]

Crap game, crap result, Smith is inept. How I wish we had a better manager and could play football correctly; Start off like a fucking freight train, impose ourselves with pace and physicality, rather than ambling around like a used condom. It's a pain in the arse to have to watch such ineptitude almost weekly.

Besides Jack, a decent appearance from Davis, and a debut goal from Samatta, we were very poor. I love Mings, but he was back to one of his shit days today. He needs to be a leader in every game. Impossible perhaps, as he's only human, but he's too casual for my liking at times. And why on earth we didn't sign a midfield enforcer, I'll never know. I don't like Nakamba at all.

Hause, Freddie, and Reina were particularly crap. Reina didn't have a great deal to do, but he cocked up for the goal. Definitely should have kept Nyland in.

Out of 10 for team performance, 3.

Individually:

Reina 4
Targett 6
Hause -507
Mings 5
Konsa 4
Guilbert 4
Nakamba 3
Luiz 3
Grealish 7
Samatta 6
El Ghazi 2

Davis 7
Engels 5
Trezeguet...barely did anything.

Apologies for the non stop ranting. It's been a long day and I've had far too much to drink.

[SoccerHQ]

Yes agreed, he got nowhere near the ball and clattered Engels.

Was that at 2-0 or 2-1, can't quite remember.

Ultimately we got it back to 2-1 with still 25 minutes left and barely had a shot. Bournemouth managed things very well from then.

Just done dry Jan, so will be joining you on the drink later

Reckon the game on Tuesday took a lot out of us today. Crap excuse I know, but we’ll be up for the spurs game.

[ChicagoLion]

Making perfect sense to me Axl,

2-0, I can't understand why it's not a foul and yet a keeper is a protected species.

Bournemouth retreated in numbers, but we had chances, Davis in particular, to have got a point.

We better be. Two week break although it's never a given as many teams have flat performances after breaks. Spurs also have CL game 3 days after.

Think we're going to need 5 points from Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal/Man. United home games to have good chance of staying up.
