Aston Villa v Tottenham Match Thread

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

Think the commentators are given us a lot more credit than we deserve. We look great passing it around in our third of the pitch but get over the half way line it becomes pretty clueless.

[taylorsworkrate]

Much the better team, but can't find the final cutting edge.

We've got into dangerous positions and created some panic, but without creating chances.

Trez lacks the quality for me. Spurs here for the taking.

I don't think we've been too poor overall, but can we really call ourselves "much the better team" when we haven't had a single shot?

[N'ZMAV]

This is a true test of what Dean's got in his locker now.

[Des Little]

We have absolutely no creativity through the middle. It’s hopeless.

[Deano's Mullet]

I said to the missus   we can  have the ball all we like but if you don’t create anything it will bite us in the arse because you just knew Tottenham would take their chances if they got them. I can’t see us scoring tonight whereas they still look dangerous every time they come forward.

[CT Villan]

Sanson struggling.
Luiz sloppy (again)
Final third crap
Very poor for their goal

Spurs are there for the taking if we can get our act together.

[Ian.]

I’d be tempted to get Ramsey on and push McGinn right forward. AEG on for Trez

[Mister E]

McGinn's done okay. Several others haven't.

[Risso]

You can’t keep playing 4-3-3 when your wingers are as piss poor as Trez and Traore.

[Steve67]

As per usual, it’s utter drivel. Lazy crossing and no creativity from midfield at all.

[AV82EC]

It was OKish until they scored then we've been downbeat since then. We lack quality in the wide attacking positions with a dreadful Spurs back 4 and despite looking threatening we have no punch.

[Rudy65]

You are being v kind

[Meanwood Villa]

We won't score

[BC Villain]

We lost to Sheffield United and scraped a lucky point against Newcastle.  Why are we so surprised at how poor we've looked

[TonyD]

So will Dean change this shite at HT?
He should.
No doubt.
