There was nothing really wrong with the tactics first half, we just failed to take our chances after typically rubbish defending gifted them another chance. I've been saying it for weeks, but we've go far too many mediocre players. McGinn isn't even mediocre, he's just crap.

If we're trying to get Nakamba up to speed, why didn't we give him some minutes?

Just got back. £60 on petrol, £60 on tickets, £30 at Pizza Hut at Starcity and a lesson in taking chances from Spurs. What a depressing day.

There's no way we'll ever move on another level with Ings and Watkins as our strikers.
Both are nowhere near what's required at this level.
Sorry to be harsh but after today I couldn't care less if either or both move on in the Summer.

I didn't see any of the game thankfully, but it irks me that Gerrard called them a "top club". With that mentality we won't get anywhere. They're not a top club: they're Spurs.

Depends which metric he used. They never win anything but they've qualified for europe evey season since 2009 and will likely be back in CL for next season. And they attract top managers with ease.

So a little different to us not finishing in top half of prem since 2011 and getting in relative rookies as managers.

There'll be no changes at Leicester. Same team, same tactics, early goal conceded, confidence dives, Leicester score again. "Changes will have to be made". Yeah, yeah, yeah...

I think Gerrard brought Buendia and Bailey on to try and attack them more, and then Digne lost an eyelash or something so on came Young as per bloody usual. I don't remember Marv even warming up to be honest so not sure if him coming was ever likely to happen.

Our fans are as shite as McGinn's ability to retain possession. Who fucks off with 20 minutes to go. Wankers.

Anyway by far the best thing about today was driving to the game. Got a few miles down the A14 in my mate's car, and we could see two people messing about on a bridge a little way ahead. Got a bit closer, and one of the people was a young lady in a total state of undress leaning over the bridge and waggling her ample bosom at the passing cars and lorries.

We left when their 4th went in and I don’t blame anyone else who did. Although I should have stayed to the end to beat the traffic

If we improved the WiFi and/or 5G at B6, you could start your manager out threads before the game has finished.

Utter wank to see the total lack of support for the side today. Its almost universally the lower Witton, truly the worst of us as they fuck off on a regular basis. But the emptying on 70ish minutes was pathetic.

Agreed.  So annoying the wait after I had pressed submit.

It’s always been a thing at Villa though.  It used to happen when it was still in the balance as well.  This obsession with traffic which doesn’t bother me really is just weird.
