Aston Villa v Arsenal - Match Thread.

[villadelph]

You thought the balance was bad before.. enter Traore and Bailey.

Going all out for the goals now - cross your fingers.

Gerrard is rubbish regarding substitutions. Exactly the same as Dean was.

What's wrong with these fucking managers and their ineptitude

Luiz is possibly the worst player I've ever seen...ok that's not true, but he isn't very good at football.

Luiz is by a long way the best of our midfield three today. Free kick aside, he has been good second half.

[JUAN PABLO]

Why it takes so long to use subs

[Keeno]

Those were the right substitutions - we need them to stay wide, and win some 1-on-1s.

[Axl Rose]

Arsenal's kit looks like it has been washed 600 times using Flash for floors. Shite!

It's horrid isn't it.

It's probably the same colour as those pastries that man in France wanked in, in the story you shared recently.

You can still see?! You’ve got to be close to polishing off the entire bottle of whiskey by now.

Not in the game I'm watching, I'm afraid.

[brontebilly]

No Sanson???

Don't understand it at all. Seemed like he on the verge of breaking into the team a couple of weeks back. Not getting a sniff now.

He is anonymous and ineffectual most of the time.

Subs with 20 minutes left. Why not at half time?

Ha!

A glass of French red now.

Tomorrow isn't going to be pleasant.

I feel an equaliser coming.

This is the most fucking half arsed, half hearted performances I have seen for ages

I wouldn't say them being 1-0 up, or our failure to break them down, has been a particular failing of the deepest lying midfielder.

In terms of what each of the three is meant to do, I think both McGinn and Ramsey before he went off had been making a lot of bad decisions and being too risk averse in terms of their forward passing.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

If anybody thinks Coutinho is going to stay and play in this team they're delusional. We still struggle to put three passes together.

[Chris_Jephcott]

I don’t know really why I bothered watching this today. The next few games are going to be shocking aren’t they? Why do we look so scared against top half teams???

Not one single shot on target. Pathetic
