Again the pitch is woeful so it’s difficult to be too judgmental about our passing. We’re okay, they’re better but not by much.

1-0 them

We are completely overrun in midfield. How the hell does the manager not see that two up front simply doesn’t work for us. And in today’s game very few top clubs play this way. Too open. Too exposed.

Two up front is such a shit idea, especially when your two are Watkins and Ings. We've no pace and just aren't hurting them.

Rubbish.

We've been rubbish. Rubbish formation, rubbish passing, no tactics of note.

Come on Villa.

We are in Smith territory of stubbornness.

Yes. When we picked it out of our own net and kicked off.
