Aston Villa 1-1 Ipswich Post Match Shouting

[RichardBatchelor]

Fours sitters missed by my count.

I don’t think we were bad, but the finishing was awful. And the Ipswich goal was terrible from us.

[Proposition Joe]

Nowhere near good enough. This approach of playing very slowly and then trying to up the tempo at the end just isn’t working. Dreadful result.

Our walking football + an organised team that presses our midfielders and defence = a bad day at the office.

I didn't see the Ipswich goal. How on earth did we manage to let them score? From what i saw at the end of the first half there was no way I could conceive we'd concede, not even us.

Anyway, Rashford looked promising. And shame Asensio skied that good chance he had.

[Sexual Ealing]

Such a shit, arrogant performance. Fair play to the Ipshitters.

[VillaTim]

Our set pieces especially corners are pretty abysmal , what is Macphee bringing to the table

[PeterWithesShin]

4 without a win in the league, which includes games against the sides 16th, 17th and 18th.

[KRS]

Another 2 points dropped against shit opposition.

We’re still toothless against teams that park the bus, and the back 4 let us down again…if we don’t concede we more than likely win today. Our inability to keep a clean sheet is killing us this season.

With Newcastle and Chelsea both losing, that's a terrible loss.

That, plus the other points we've thrown away at home.

[TopDeck113]

So when is this much-predicted funeralling of an opposition team actually going to happen?

This is a poor result in the context of an afternoon when our goal difference should now be comfortably back in the positive.

[dorsetvillian]

We had our chance and blew it big time. Such a frustrating season.

[BC Villain]

Fair play to Ipswich.  Defended really well and deserved the point.  We simply didn't do enough to win it

[SamTheMouse]

We're capable of dominating teams, but we don't start playing until we concede. It's been the problem all season long, and it's starting to get really fucking annoying.

It's the reason we're not currently competing with likes of Liverpool. They are generally on it from kick off and maintain the intensity for most of the game. And they're not all blowing out of their arses with an hour gone.

Either we're approaching games deliberately killing the pace, or we have a general fitness issue. Either way, it needs addressing pronto.

Same story all season. Every game is 50/50, so results are 50/50. I think we've been found out and need to tweak our style. Works in Europe because they're less familiar, but everyone in the league (apart from Spurs, mate) knows now to play against us now. We can't dominate like we did last season.

For the first time under Emery I think we're under performing against the quality of player in the squad.

[CT Villan]

We typically do better in open games, but struggle when things are tighter or more physical like today. I agree with other posters that our slow, lethargic build-up does us few, if any, favours. I do like the look of Rashford, Malen and especially Asensio though.

Yep. Any talk of top five should've been in the bin weeks ago. It's definitely done now. We're into miracle territory.

In the league , Spurs mate hammered us 4-1
