Aston Villa v Chelsea Match Thread

How is this even a debate in a world in which Jay Rodriguez exists?

Nonsense subs the last two

[pauliewalnuts]

Fuck me, how annoying is it when we do that - fannying about at the back and give away a throw.

[Brazilian Villain]

That’s a stunning goal

Martinez at fault

He was. Initially it looked a better goal than it was. Emi either didn’t trust the wall which is ultimately his responsibility or he just got the ball flight completely wrong. Two massive errors have cost us this game. And when combined with the number of superb chances we had…well it’s what you have right now. Relegation zone within our grasp

Looked to me like he misjudged the flight of the ball and took a step to the the right, then realised too it was going to his left and he was in no man's land hence the lack of an attempt to save it.

Why the hate for Mount, is it from Southgate constantly picking him over Jack?

He seems a decent young man.

Opposition players don't normally annoy me but he's got the most punchable face in football, no one comes close.

El Haj Duouf?

Got to be Vardy for me.

Rebekah?

[TonyD]

Ramsey off for DaDonkey?

Why does Gerrard never look at using the 4th or 5th sub? Time and time again he makes 3 changes, 1 player at a time, often with only a few minutes between them.

We have lost much of our momentum after the subs.

We sold all our wingers so we can't play a different way. Dendonker keeps it at 0.2

Because he's a twat. Compare the subs Potter made at half time, they've looked much more solid since.

I'm swaying toward your way of thinking, BV.

He's also one of those random/boring hand gesture goal celebration types.

And he is always rubbish for England, but who cares nowadays, England are rubbish enough with or without son of Southgate.

Has Phil slowed us down? Seruous q as not watching

[villadelph]

Bring Buendia and Coutinho on has completely killed our forward progress.. hand brakes on and we’ve got South Americans spinning in circles and Ollie giving the ball away.

We lost it, and the match, when gifting them their second goal.

[Steve67]

Have we had a shot on target this half?
