Brentford 2 v Aston Villa 1 Post Match Thread

[The Edge]

Got what we deserved for fannying round after we scored.  Trezeguet's moment of stupidity at the end epitomises what total clusterfuck that was.  Brainless and totally unprofessional

I would fine Trez for that. Embarrassed himself and embarrassed the club. We have so many camera angles to look at now how can players not realise this? Honestly footballers are so fucking thick sometimes.

Absolute Disgrace. Poor from both Teams like a Championship pre-season friendly

Bang on. A poor quality games between two poor teams.

Piss poor, thought we got over that type o performance, looking at today team you are talking about needing 4 or 5 players to up grade, don't mind losing if we played well, but this looks like a performance under Dean smith before he left

That’s a terrible defeat. Seems our latest Covid shutdown has really taken the momentum away from us. Instead of playing Burnley at home after an easy win at Norwich it’s all come apart a bit. Somewhat understandable given the circumstances. But it’s also revealing to the manager just who might make it and who needs to be replaced as the window opens. We were very good at times today and conceded a very poor goal right before the break. After that it was an even game until their goal. This won’t sit well with Gerrard.

I lost count of the times a promising villa attack was ended by Traore or Targett. We need Young, Bailey and Watkins back asap.

We looked good for half an hour but faded badly.

Good:

Buendia
Martinez
Maybe Ings

Ok:
Maybe Ings
Ramsey
Konsa
Cash

Shite:
Targett
Hause
McGinn
Luiz

Utter Shite:
Traore
Trezeguet

By far and away the better side all game. Hause poor on 2 occasions and it leads to 2 goals

We always lose here and it always rains.

Let's not dress this up or find mitigation.

Brentford were awful and we lost to them. We have too many nothing players. Constantly giving the ball away, little creativity, no urgency.

11 defeats out of 19 games tells it's own story.

A horrible, horrible defeat.

That’s how I see it.
They didn’t ‘want it more’ or anything like that.
We should have had more than enough to win but we didn’t have the nous, fluidly, pace and speed of thought.
Misplaced passes, giving the ball away cheaply and not quality from 30 yards out.
The team looked like a team where everyone was recovering from either being ill or on the piss last night.

And trezeguet can fuck right off, the cheating bastard.

This is on Gerrard at least as much as any player.

[PaulWinch again]

Not good enough. We’ve lost some defensive resilience of late.

Suspect we need a bit more than that but there is no need to panic, we have plenty of good players and I think we now have a good manager who is only a handful of games in with no preseason

Yep very much a Dean game.

Is SJM available for Man United in the FAC, or does he miss the PL game?
