Aston Villa v Southampton Match Thread

When we pass the ball, it's to the man or just behind him, expecting the receiver to do the work. We never seem to pass into space so that the man getting the ball can play it first time or do something quickly.

Having said that Buendia tries something creative to be the exception that proves the rule...

Can't we just bend one ball in behind a defender and have Ollie run onto it through the middle? Just one..

Oh ffs. Ramsey is doing fine

He's been booked though so more about not risking a second I think.

[Edvard Remberg]

Class! 70

how classy of Walker-Peters getting caught gobbing on the floor during the applause.

Southampton have been utter shit, yet we've hardly managed a shot worthy of the name this half.

Yeah, that's worrying, they truly have been abysmal but we still are made to look workmanlike (at best) and pedestrian.

They actually have been running hard, working hard

There's been quite a few periods of this game which is genuinely Sunday league quality 😂

[jwarry]

This has to be the scruffiest game ever seen in the PL

[ez]

We need to keep breaking up the play with soft fouls and pretend injuries.  It's the done thing.

I had the choice between going to the game or babysitting my 5 year old grandson. Made the right call by not going!!
