Well tonight’s the night of the uncomfortable truth for me.

All season I thought that we would be ok, and that we could actually avoid relegation. But it’s been coming for a while now - we are nothing more than a mid-table championship team that got lucky last season. We’ve had poor recruitment, poor management, poor defence, poor training, poor injuries (granted there’s an element of bad luck here) but the team are just poor.

I couldn’t bring myself to watch after the penalty. That’s the first time I’ve actually ever had to walk away in disappointment like that.

But that’s it now, I think we’re going down.

Final point tonight; this team doesn't deserve our fans and our fans certainly don't deserve this shit team.

Was Grealish 100% fit? Or has he ultimately reached his peak for the season and now in slump?
Doesn't deserve any England call up on that showing tonight or the cup final. Not cutting it against the top teams. But that's in part due to his weaklings of team mates
However would expect him to assert himself far more in matches if he's now matured into an international player.
And I don't think he'll move to Leicester no matter how many BFF are there the way the Leicester fans were goading him what's the score shows how much they wish they had him.
He was nowhere near champions league level
Complete bollocks

So he was champions league level in the last 2 games for you ?
He looked fit tonight to you ?
Did he asserts himself ?
It's the harsh truth so stop kidding yourself or kindly explain how what I wrote could be bollocks.
I deal with realities .
If Jack played well in either game the team plays well so can't be bollocks.
Oh and elite top level players impact matches consistently.
Thanks
he is playing for a relegation team, how could he be champions league level, he has been carrying this team all season, how could that not be affecting him, he is the most fouled player and not one other player attempts to protect him. Yes you are spouting bollocks,

The last couple of games I can see he is looking ahead to next season at another club, I think he finally put his hands up and said I tried my hardest but can't do any more.
We have been let down again by owners not seeing the obvious months ago.

Can we replay the season starting from August 2020?

Well that's down to Coronavirus I guess

The most frustrating thing is its still in our own hands yet we're playing like we were relegated weeks ago. The lack of fight is unnacceptable.

Purslow no doubt convinced them to stick with Dean. Tonight is not the night to blame the owners. We've got 150,000,000 problems and the owners ain't one.

I've maintained that it will go to the last game since  Christmas, now I'm not convinced we'll win more than one or two more games.

Well we only need to win 2 more
Draw around 4 or 5 and it's possible

Let down by recruitment in my view

And coaching. We struggle with the basics.

The players don’t believe it’s possible.

Andy Townshead said, and it must of hurt, " Aston Villa are the worst team in the league and are playing like a team already relegated"
The level of ineptness on show tonight was beyond belief
who coaches this shit ?
We have choices, suddenly turn into a team with belief and desire, carry on as is and sleepwalk down to the championship, bring in a new management team with a short term objective to stay up. No guarantees but we tried.
I guess we are into sleepwalking and looking forward to local derbies  next year.
How fucking annoying

What we wouldn't give for another Andy Townsend in our midfield. Or Ian Taylor or Gareth Barry....proper midfielders who could hold their own against the best.

The point really to my last above post is look at Sheffield Utd.
Dean Smith could get a team and squad together like that and play his way not be given tools that aren't 100% reliable in creating a team ethos.
It's now becoming a mismatch team and nothing to build on.
Why Andre Green and O'Hare and Davies weren't in these squads all season is beyond me those are just 3 who should be included .
