Aston Villa v Tottenham Match Thread

Fuck me, just end this now ref.

[andyh]

Spurs have been very poor.
And yet will win this game without us putting a glove on them.

Cash gets in ahead of Guilbert.  Struggling with that one.

Thats harsh. Cash has been poor tonight, but has had an excellent season before his injury.

Smith without Grealish looks like a championship manager.

Smith without Grealish IS a championship manager.

Soft penalty - but Kane knew what he was doing. He looked for contact and got it. Shame the ref didn't spot it - oh wait - its Mike Dean

Kane was going absolutely nowhere and Cash dived in. A cretinous challenge.

Tottenham look like the team that have had 9 days rest, and we look like the team had an extra time game on Thursday

[Chris_Jephcott]

Look, it was an emotional reaction to a soft penalty in a game that we have been humiliated in.

Yes, this season is progress and I have always said that this is a work in progress. We’re not there yet, we’re not even close based on the evidence of the last few games.

I believe that Covid has really knocked the energy out of the team, we lost Grealish at the wrong time.

We have had some great perks this season, but this last month is one to forget.

What I will never understand about players like Barkley is how could you be so uninterested? I can forgive someone being shit but I can’t forgive someone just not bothering.

[BC Villain]

Barkley has been terrible since he came on

Has he come on?  I didn't notice

[ez]

Looks like the towel has gone in now.

[Allan C]

It’s not that we’re playing badly as such, we just don’t have the quality in the areas that matter. Simple as that

[Uknowthescore]

It’s more grealish than smith who got us promoted and kept us up

[Skerra]

Why bother making a substitution now? Far too late.

[kippaxvilla2]

Surprised Spurs haven’t bought Ledley King on.

[Proposition Joe]

Spurs played on Thursday night, but we're the ones struggling with condition it seems. That's also not a good sign.
