Three good chances second half:Ramsey - instead of shooting, crossed, although that was good defending too from the Forest player.McGinn - should have used his foot.Archer - instead of heading toward goal knocked it back across the goal.Bad decision making

He did the right thing and we would have scored had Watkins be more aware.
There were moments in the 2nd half that summed things up for me - (i) Watkins was given an 'out' ball with which he did well, breaking on the right side. When he got about 35 yards out, he looked for support in the middle of the park where there were acres of open space - no Villa player was anywhere near, and Watkins got crowded out; (ii) A Villa attack on the left was made, quickly and with incision, until it reached McGinn who scooped up the ball toward the goal to no one in particular ... he had all the time in the world to take a touch and then shoot.We looked unfit and the decision-making on the pitch looks terrible. There appears to be absolutely no understanding between the players, no idea of what their roles are, no link-up play between defence and midfield, no link-up play between midfield and our 1 forward.Gerrard has to go, it's terrible. Coutinho sums him up - lacklustre and ineffective.

Watkins was in the right place to put it in but the ball never got to him.
