Aston Villa vs Stoke City - League Cup Rd 4 Match Thread

If KD scores, I'll have his name tattooed across my ample arse.

Scores today or ever ?

[Andy Poole]

If KD scores, I'll have his name tattooed across my ample arse.

Got it all crossed!

A few bad injuries and some of this lot could get games in the league for us.

Shudder.

[Hookeysmith]

How many times does Taylor receive the ball and instantly looks to pass it backwards

[hilts_coolerking]

Blimey that was piss poor.  We look very lacking in quality.  On the strength of that I'd like another striker coming in and Keinan farmed out as soon as Wesley's fit.

[Monty]

Not sure it was such a great idea to leave Jack out of the squad.

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Underwhelming. Fair play Stoke so far, though.

[Diablo]

Boooo-llocks!

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Lansbury really is a microbe of a footballer.

He must have made 5 million out of the game during his "career"

Fucking melt

The way he saves himself, he'll probably be stealing a living when he's 60.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why Davis will never be good enough.

Yep.

It’s a bit alarming that at the moment he’s back up striker.

And he’s here for the next 4 years

[CT Villan]

Absolute garbage.

If Hause and Lansbury never play for Villa again, it won't be a day too soon.

Davis in open-goal miss shocker.

AEG very poor.

The only one to come out of that looking decent is Steer.

[Ads]

The passing all over the park is far too loose. Hause, Lansbury, El Ghazi,  Davis and Taylor are all consistently giving it away cheaply.

Its making it far too difficult to create a platform in the game.

That said, as poor as our play has been, we should be winning.

How many times does Taylor receive the ball and instantly looks to pass it backwards

Each year for the last 3 years I’ve been thinking it must be his last with us

[Meanwood Villa]

Gave the ball away in our own half so many times we're fortunate to have only conceded one. Couple of chances we should have taken, Lansbury and Davis. Bit crap really 

[Scovilla]

Dreadful midfield.Ramsey is the only one trying.
I like him a lot.
