Leeds 0 Gerrard Out XI 0 Post Match Thread

[Stinkin_Thinkin]

we needed to capitalize in the moments straight after the red, Leeds had lost their heads giving away foul after foul. As soon as they got their sub on and restructured the window was closed.
Shame we didn't have a better cover option at RB as Konsa got loads of ball in offensive area's but you knew he wasn't going to do much with it.

I 've got an early start for work tomorrow. Do you think we will be first on MOTD2 ?

[PeterWithesShin]

On the one hand, 65% didn't think we'd win before the game, injuries are taking the piss now.

On the other, we are just so fucking dull. Probably only Preston are more boring than us in the football league.

[Clark W Griswold]

An absolute seeping arsehole of a Villa team, with Gerrard a giant boil on the cheek of it.

[Astnor]

Again forward playing just seems random. Whatever it takes to do in front of goal to score watkins dosent have any of it. Seems a good bloke and have other talent. A winger as he used to be. So its "waiting for a new manager" time then.

[RamboandBruno]

If Coutinhio scores just after the sending off, it could of been another 2 or 3 nil, as they are really shite. But he hit the bar and we just had no real tempo, it really was another boring drab affair. I think if we dont get a win at Forest he has to go, there are a number of good managers out there looking for a job. Watching villa has always been more down than ups but Its been a while since ive been  this bored watching them.

Result not great but as a performance it was much better considering all the injuries. Luiz and McGinn did really well as did Young. I know chucking on Ings is a likely sub but he hardly got a kick. Problem was Watkins really. He did a lot right in terms of his movement and hold up play. But in the critical moments in the box he didn't deliver. Thought the ref bottled giving them a number of clear yellow cards after the red.

Martinez 6, Young 8, Konsa 6, Mings 7, Augustinson 6 (Bednarek 5), Luiz 8, McGinn 8, Ramsey 7, Coutinho 6, Bailey 5 (Buendia 7), Watkins 6. 

[Kevin Dawson]

No urgency, no quality. He has to go after that]. Yes, he's been very unlucky with injuries, but I'd make a change now.

[Bad English]

French TV (Canal+) was so relieved to get that turgid dross off the screen so they could get back to wanking furiously over the amazing Manchester 'dare-bee'.

[exiled on the wirral!]

3 unbeaten

What's not to like?😁

[LukeJames]

Everything is so slow and laboured. Its become a real fucking drain watching us under Gerrard.

[coreyfeldman]

What I'm baffled by is the amount of times in the last 15 minutes where doug has the ball half way and he passes it backwards. I thought he was pretty good today overall but is this a lack of confidence in the team, or conservatism?

Bailey was hopeless, buendia again has to start. Will he being freddy back in from the cold cos konsa at right back is a problem, especially in this system

[Skerra]

Get Gerrard out now before he does any more damage to our team. How Archer doesn’t get a start I’ll never know. I’d do a 2 for 1 offer in the transfer window, buy Watkins and get Ings free or vice versa.

[Exeter 77]

Villa would struggle to force a Morris Marina to breakdown on that performance.

[RichardBatchelor]

Didn’t think it was as bad as some are suggesting but so toothless. Young was superb.
