Totally over run in midfield. we've reverted back to giving it Mings whose only option is to hoof it.

HT, and fucking lucky to be going in level!

He's not going to hook McGinn, so I'd go with the double change -

Ramsey > Luiz
Konsa > Chambers

My stream is awful today (I see you're watching the same one Risso)

Yep, it's normally really good but been terrible today.

The midfield is a massive problem, doing nothing either in attack or defense, the gaps are huge.
There is never a pass on so we just hoof it forward and are second to every bouncing ball.

This is alarming stuff today.

Not really. This is exactly how we perform most weeks.

We’re being overrun in midfield by a good, physical side, and the defence as a team is shaky, though Mings has been excellent. Cash is getting joy down the right. We may have Lady Luck on our side.

Very, very lucky to be level at HT.

Konsa is absolute garbage and McGinn not far behind him.

Show us something different Villa.

Dougie for Ramsey

Chambers for Konsa.

Assuming it’s the same one, who is the second commentator? I think it’s Hendrie?

Season after season we underwhelm in the midfield area and it gets exposed time and again. We'll do very well to get a point here.

Get Luiz on.

Bit concerned that Gerard is making Ramsey not progress

He's trying to play him back to form and it's not happening.

Look at you two bragging about having a shit stream, while the rest of us have a perfect picture of just how bad we are.
