Aston Villa v Wolves Post Match Thread.

Things are that bad I’d almost be embarrassed if we did somehow manage to stay up.

I was hoping with two up front, we would be loads better and at least a threat.

I was wrong on both

I personally see noting in Davies at all. Sammata I'm.happy to give a bit more time..

Absolutely predictable again - the players are abject and I wouldn't lose any sleep if they all left (Grealish is clearly off and just not interested anymore) but the management is truly as bad as anything we have seen in the last decade.

And for those wanting to give him next season to see if he can get us promoted again - please - we need fresh ideas, a new philosophy, someone who has the charisma to build from the bottom up. We are rotten and sadly, back to square one yet again.

The next thing our owners should do is spend money making sure every single Wolves fan is unable to comment on anything Villa related on the internet.

We were abysmal today. Hate every player. ******

Wolves didn’t have to do much really, they just did enough. We look like a team that has no belief, ive no idea what our strengths are (do we have any) or what the plan is. We just aren’t good enough for this league.

We run around for 90 minutes but other than that I’ve no idea what the plan is, none whatsoever. If we stay up I’ll be amazed.

Smith neglected to put a single wide player out there for them!

After caving to the pressure to abandon his dreadful 4-3-3.. He literally stuck 3 slow-footed CMs behind the forwards and jack.

Dean Smith out, tonight. I’d rather have Neil Warnock lay into this bunch for the next three weeks than watch this dross and go down without a whimper.

Smith won't be here next season.

Approaching relegation like a juggernaut careering towards the cliff edge.

I'd say that we're approaching relegation like a Frenchman in a country village who has just had a particularly hearty Sunday lunch.

He's half-asleep and is preparing for a couple of hours kip....

[levico]

The frustrating thing is that we all know, deep down, that Smith is going nowhere any time soon. I suspect he will go when the remnants of this sub ordinary squad are looking at the prospect of a second relegation. Even then he’ll have his supporters.
For once, we need to invest in a quality manager, whatever the cost.

If only it were that exciting!

I was watching (I think) an NBC stream and the commentators plotted the narrative arc of this game from the get go. You'd hope that our coaching team could've had such insights. We were never going to get anything, but we didn't look like we wanted to.

I have a horrible feeling that Smith has been reading message boards, given that the line up looked like it had been picked by committee.

[SoccerHQ]

It's a slow death type of season again. Whatever formation or players we put out we're showing every game we're not good enough at this level.

We've had plenty of chancees in last 10 days to at least get out of the bottom 3. In games we need to win we draw and games where draw would be good result we lose.

If we couldn't get out of the bottom 3 with last 4 games I can't really see how we'll do it with the last 6, probably two games at best where you think we might get a draw out of it if we play well.

[RichardBatchelor]

Pure McLeish territory. Dismal.

[Villatillidie1982]

There was never enough quality without McGinn and clearly he is still recovering from his injury. I didn't think that there was much between the teams. Wolves didn't offer much either. It was all so passionless without the fans

[Villan82]

I am starting to really dislike Smith and the half arsed message his continued occupancy of the hotseat has represented all season.
