Clearly emery has zero interest in this competition and only wanted to get kamara and mings up to speed. Buendia and philogene look awful atm

The club obviously doesn't give a shit about domestic cups.

Fans need to stop spending their hard earned money attending.

What made you think we’d play a strong side today then?

Don’t understand why we had such a poor bench. Understand the starting line up but why nothing at all to bring on?

Well i wont be paying to watch any further carabao cup matches when its clear we dont give a shit.

Next season i reckon villa be lucky if 20k fans turn up if ee get a home tie

Yep, first one I’ve missed deliberately and purely because I knew we wouldn’t give a shit.

Obviously it was shit, but that's because we weren't trying and didn't care.

It was a strong enough side we just couldn’t be bothered
Apparently domestic trophies aren’t worth winning

Emre had no interest in winning this, bigger fish to fry. Thought Kamara and Mings looked ready but Buendia and the young keeper nowhere near. It's a competition worth missing.

Philogene was absolutely dreadful. What on earth did we see in him to bust a gut to bring him back?

I thought it was wrong to give Kamara and Mings the full 90 mins. Both were blowing a gasket for the last 15 mins or so. Instead he brought on a young defender into midfield  :o Agreed on Buendia and Philogene sadly

That was a pretty strong side tbh. Putting 3 youngsters on in the last 15 minutes as if we were 4 nil up pretty much summed the motivation up.

Much as I love Emery and want him to see out his career with us I would like to see a journo ask him some tough questions for what is a third successive limp exit from this competition.

Probably should have watched Ludwig as my girlfriend was suggesting.

Most of the team looked pretty poor apart from Kamara and the three young musketeers who came on at the end.

Not that bothered really. Bigger fish to fry and don’t think we need the extra games.
