Aston Villa 2 The Arse 4 Post Match ah well what could have been thread

[Jon Crofts]

11 goals in 3 games conceded.
8 in 2 games at home.

[Smirker]

Hopefully once Carlos isback in we'll be better but we really need defenders.

[Bad English]

It's a game of two halves played by twenty-two gentlemen where Villa play only ever play one.

[Rigadon]

The script we all know and hate, but never seem to escape from, like a recurring nightmare.  I’ve lost count of the number of times over the years we’ve gone ahead in these kind of games but lost in dramatic last minute fashion.

We are conceding too many chances and the way Emery wants us to play seems too technically advanced for the defenders we have.  All of them suspect when under pressure to some degree, Konsa is completely inept at what he is being asked to do. 

[Axl Rose]

Defence is crap. Mings and Konsa are an absolute nightmare at times, and I long for the day they aren't in the starting eleven.

Martinez behaves like a fucking baby all game. Grow up and stop time wasting.

Doesn't seem to matter who is our manager. The end product appears to be on repeat.

Fucking hell

[Risso]

Utter wank. Any chance of Martinez making another save for us before he fucks off to win the Champions League.

Trust the process? Fuck off.

[TonyD]

The best and worst in the one game. 
I think Mings, Konsa, Cash and Martinez will be gone in the summer.
Total rebuild at the back for me. 

[Monty]

"We want attacking football! Just entertain us!"

[turns out to be risky]

"Fock's sake Villa bunch of drips"

Look, it's not good enough, but we did just play the top two in the league and ran one of them right to the wire. If it's building towards something I can live with it. If it doesn't, well, we've been there before.

[DB]

3 on the bounce, 11 conceded, role on the summer and get the defence sorted

[LukeJames]

Dissapointed in Emery after that. We allowed them too double up on us on the wings all through the second half and we allowed them to have free men on the edge of our box all through the second half. We seem to be incapable of learning from previous mistakes, their 2-2 equaliser was a carbon copy of the Stevenage winner and we had the customary fucking about at the back from Konsa. if we want to play out from the back then we need a whole new defence because none of the current lot are capable.

[Risso]

Nice of Mings to celebrate his new contract in his time honoured way.

[Rigadon]

And yes, the so called shit housing from Martinez is getting really boring.  Waste time, they just fucking add it on at the end when there's even more pressure. 

[kippaxvilla2]

The most Villa thing ever is to get rid of our main striker, cope admirably up front relatively speaking only for the defence to turn to absolute shit in three games. 

[aj2k77]

The softest of underbellies in the division. We always crumble under pressure. Never score late winners. Lack concentration and composure and seem to exist to give very, very average players immense amounts of money or retirement funds without ever showing any real improvement. Shit result, shit defending, shit mentality. As usual.

Entertaining game, played well and had chances to win the match.
