Post-Match Thread - Aston Villa 1 - 3 Abominable Kit Stealers

We are a work in progress, there will be ups and downs. Let’s not judge them too harshly.

100% correct.

Im hoping we improve once this playing twice a week spell is over. It’s too much unless you have a tremendous squad.

[BC Villain]

For all the goodwill and progress Smith has achieved, he has picked up one of MON's bad habits - a reluctance to rotate his squad, preferring to stick with his first choice 11.  He didn't react to Burnley changing the game, we got lucky on Saturday, and tonight was arguably our poorest home performance of his reign.

Can somebody teach The_ads how to use the quote button?

Unpopular opinion I know I've felt for a while that Martinez isn't that great a shot stopper especially if it's put in the corners or down low.   Brilliant on crosses and commanding the box and defence but there's been a few I thought other keepers would have got to.

Are we seriously having this conversation. He’s been one of our best players and kept us in the game on Saturday. 


Isn’t it so very convenient that tonight becomes the night you air that when Saturday he was absolutely brilliant. How odd

If you say so.  You didn;t see the error he made on Saturday then?  How odd.

I'm expressing an opinion, you happen to disagree. I'm sure you'll get over it with a bit of therapy.

And I'm sure you won't say anything else like that.

Are we once more heading into another duff smith run?

[cdbearsfan]

A bit annoying that our record of conceding goals against any old donkey who happens to be contracted to Man U still applies when they're on loan to someone else. ☹

[Legion]

Please be civil.

Disappointing night. Probably worst performance of the season over 90 minutes. We're still doing far better than a lot of us expected but maybe the talk of Europe should be put on hold.

[Drummond]

We were crap all over the pitch, gave stupid goals away, made plenty of mistakes and the passing and positional play went awry everywhere.

Roll on Saturday.

I don’t like mental health slurs - you should retract immediately

Do you do anything else other than have a go at other fans?

Whilst you can say what you like on here without fear of sanction. Every time we get beat you are like a fly round shit pal

Somewhat ironic you're calling out Risso for having a go at your comment when you've pretty much told me you can't believe I'm expressing my opinion on here.

As legion said, please desist.

Southampton, Leicester and Man City last season. Albion in the year we came up. Four examples it's taken me 30 seconds to remember. It was crap tonight but let's not go nuts.
