As for Brentford, didn’t Ivan Toney use to play for them ? Not sure who that bloke they had up front today was. Hardly touched the ball :)

It looked to me that Brentford didn't play badly today, they just ran into an inspired opponent.

Didn’t give him a sniff and the less said about that open goal his strike partner missed the better, awful miss and got dragged immediately after.

With the Holte End letting him know what they thought of his ability 😉

Toney as not a happy man in the post match interview I heard.

I've been very vocal about the last Manager and the problems we had but today the game spoke for itself however one thing I will say is that football is a very simple game made complicated by people like Gerrard.

A very well judged return for Sweet Caroline at the end as well.

Sorry to hear that, shame the day had to end on a sour note. ;)

Weird. I wasn't aware Sweet Caroline was played, though I had a good singalong to Hi Ho.
Thought that too.
Stayed way after the end and did Hi Ho, but no Caroline!

Ivan Toney insists similar performances to this will be unacceptable.

"Shambles, to be honest. Shambles," he said.

"We were like a bunch of kids out there. I don't mind losing games but not like that. Embarrassing performance from the boys."

Now, I'm not saying it was a good win today but no one's posted on the 'Next PM' thread for 8 hours.

Do you think our shape was significantly different today?

Yes. Another midfielder alongside Doug and full backs playing as fullbacks

And critically a player linking defence and attack.

He came in under Dean Smith as a coach I think.  Looked like a spare part in the videos released from the early training sessions under Gerrard.

Ive just read he was high up in the Eng u20 World Cup win but I can’t mind seeing him around the bench with the first team, mind you it was easy to be lost among them all.

Sadly Liz Truss's chances of taking the Villa job have dwindled somewhat.

You were one of the worst Ivan, did fuck all for 90 minutes.

It was much different players plying in there proper decisions - Bailey came wide a lot more and looked much better for it

Midfield looked really well balanced and we moved the ball much quicker
