We play that way the rest of the season we will still win more than we lose

How many times have we said that down the years, and how many times does it actually happen?

Agreed.

The better team by a mile.

Our record $50M forward came on to replace Bailey, how is that settling for a point??

1 point off ‘title chasing’ Spurs in 4th & 5 points above the mighty Manchester United. We are struggling for consistency but Jesus fucking wept let’s not throw in the towel just yet.

UTFV!

We lost, which makes us losers. I’ll bet you any amount of money we don’t finish in the top 6. Typical losers 

Oh come on, man. If you're going to take the piss you need to be less on the nose than this. You need to build up steadily rather than going for gold right off the bat.

I’m not a nose I’ve just watched us be losers since 1991 so this is nothing out of the ordinary. If we finish top 7 I’ll be amazed.

Ramsey and Watkins were woeful.

Yes it was their finishing that was woeful.

[Axl Rose]

We need another striker, I'm afraid. Not a mardy one that just runs about and gets booked, but a good one that's going to really challenge for the shirt.

I like Ollie, and he's scored plenty of goals for us, but when he's not on it, he needs replacing/subbing as his droughts go on just a little bit too long for my liking.

[aj2k77]

Glory hunting bastards. The bottle job is well and truly in full flow now. We'll do our usual plummeting and throw the season away. Absolute bastards.

Ramsey looked a bit better, but Watkins had a shocker. Snatched badly at all his chances, and first touch like a baby elephant all night. Awful.

I’m not dismissing the larger point you’re making. But over the many years of us fucking it up I don’t think we’ve ever have had a manager capable of making the appropriate corrections. Today was so much better. Yeh we lost, but that display would have beaten most of the naff in the league. That’s what we still need to do. We start blowing it up against the lower table sides then we’re fucked.

[charleeco7]

Better team lost today, which has happened more than once against them over the years. Injuries at the back are killing us, only one of the four who played today get in the side if everyone is fit. Good to see Ramsay back at it.

[Risso]

Emery hasn't been capable of making the necessary corrections of late. In fact, the polar opposite was true today. Left Kamara marking Maguire all game at set pieces, when it cost us one goal and nearly led to another. Took Bailey off when then was no need.

[Demitri_C]

Thats as aston villa as it gets. Absolutely devastating result. All we needed was a point and we couldnt even get that. The players have again let us down

What a collapse this is turning into

[Villan82]

Emery getting pelters now, Jesus wept.

[TonyD]

I think we played very well.
Longlet is truly a weak link.
Bailey should have stayed on the pitch
I hate Manu.
