Ita clear now unai needs to start using his squad. Needs some rotation now because you can't stick with that same starting 11 after that.

We barely took the game to them. It looked like we went there as the underdogs.

Wednesday was Moscow today was Stoke. Okay I might be overreacting.  But since when did Villa become too important to take cup competitions seriously?  I’m still fcuked off about that.

I said this midweek and got crucified by a poster. But i would say this is even worse. At least we drew with stoke !
You got crucified because you chat reactionary bollocks. Eg you now think this is worse than Moscow.

Not read the thread but

Possibly worst half of football under Unai.
Early goal for them and we never responded. No control in any area of the pitch, didn’t put their makeshift defence under any pressure at any stage, sloppy mistakes and very few positives.

Emery was saying that in his pre match presser, saying we were underdogs v Spurs and teams like ManUre , I've not heard him like this before , was a bit DOL reminiscent

Do you even think about shit like this before posting it?

As recently as a few pages ago on this very thread you were telling us this was “worse than Stoke” - an event you seem to think happened because Unai USED HIS SQUAD.

Hope that's just mind games and he doesn't actually believe it.

This could have easily been written after either of the previous two games against Spurs.

What was my original point ? That if we lose it will be as bad as moscow as we forfeited the cup for nothing and behold whats happened we lost despite resting players

So your the only person talking bollocks.

It’s not “Moscow” for fuck’s sake. We have problems but they are entirely solvable - this isn’t the end of the road type stuff. We need to adjust some things but we still have some excellent players.

I do think we’re short a more dynamic option after letting Diaby leave.

Been there before, start drawing games we should win and then lose easily.

Our worst display in the league this srason. Too many individual errors all over the place. We”ll need to hold fire on the statue with any repeat performances. McGinn is right off it and Onana for such a big bloke can’t take a hit at all. Pissed off totally.

What on earth are you talking about ?

So it is factually worse than moscow as we got one point after that against stoke and we lost today. So tell me factually how it isnt worse??

I said we need to use the squad and mix it up as now we have a virtually fulm strwngth squad. we just got spanked 4-1 do you want to see the same 11 players play next week aftee we just got embarrassed 4-1?

Why would any sane person want to after that?

Our tactics seem to be play the ball into midfield to turn and drive the their defence, Spurs hit the first player, taking the foul and too few bookings.
We were pretty much snuffed out as an attacking force.
