Aston Villa v Chelsea Match Thread

[PeterWithesShin]

He got us into the 4th round of the FA Cup, that's a pretty miraculous achievement.

[Brazilian Villain]

3-0 down to a London club and looking clueless. Any chance Nas is there to rage sack this CLOWN.

It's really not funny any more

He'll be doing his 'I'm rattled, are you rattled?' routine next.

I thought Emery was a cup specialist.

A cup emabarrssmenalist

Stevange and now this on our own turf

Im not happy with him tonight. Just like newcastle didnt bother to make zero changes

[taylorsworkrate]

Still no subs....

[pauliewalnuts]

Man United are going to murder us

[TonyD]

They have such a ridiculous amount of space. Why don't we press like they do?

Been told to throw the game is crossing my mind.  It’s the only excuse that’s excusable. 

[Meanwood Villa]

I'm afraid that unless we score first we seem a pretty easy nut to crack  Another embarrassing performance at home against a team that has really struggled lately.  I thought the Sheffield Utd game was us getting back on track but I'm very worried watching this (after Newcastle) that we might be out of steam.

Two very concerning home performances back to back and those ****** coming on Sunday. It was fun while it lasted

[VillaTim]

There is absolutely no shape or structure , zero

[Small Rodent]

I’m so done with this. Something has gone rotten at the club

Yes. You. Ha ha!

I wash twice a decade thank you

Once more than me!!!

[Rigadon]

I think the plan is to save us for Manu at the weekend and go for top four instead of the Fa cup. I think Emery has said that PL has priority. After all we do seems to take it as a training match.

Wishful thinking.  This is the same performance as the Newcastle game.  We haven't felt with the press well enough in midfield, have wasted the attacking situations we've had, and looked shaky at the back.  And our midfield has been SHITE.  This is worrying.

[Steve67]

Chelsea are much more energetic, much more aggressive, much more pace. These all missing from our team. Chelsea doing to us tonight what we have been doing to teams all season.

[coreyfeldman]

I think I'd have played better than kamara tonight

[Keeno]

Battering us in fairness. Every single passage of play they've been better.

[Rigadon]

Still no subs....

No Bailey to bring on

[Proposition Joe]

When we have the ball there's three of their players to one of ours. And when they have the ball, there's three of their players to one of ours. Where are our players?
