Back to June and July being the best months of the year as the Villa don't get to spoil them.

I will revise my initial pre-season of seeing at least one of Wolves, Brentford or West Ham being relegated if any of the promoted teams get their act together to now replace West Ham with us as at least they showed they can score and have some fight in them at least.

Getting a bit lost in the (correct) wailing about the general state of things but - Cash was fucking awful, and is not good enough.

And yet we haven’t replaced him over multiple transfer windows.

What a wank way to lose the unbeaten run.

Watch that.

First, how many of our players in the box, how many make an effort?

Secondly, watch the body language after they score. Rogers, clearly could not give a fuck, just slouches off.

There is something wrong behind the scenes here, this isn't just poor performances, this is something worse than that.

Damning.   

There is a lack of pride and discipline there.   Losing at home 0-2 and conceding that.

TBF we would have lost it earlier if Newcastle had a striker.

I agreed with the starting 11 but this is arguably our strongest side, other than Kamara in it, for the time being.  It didn't work and if this is as strong a side as we cvan put out, we are going to struggle this season.  We are crap at defending, our body language is very poor, we are in the bottom three, deservedly so.  If the answer to the question is Buendia or Lindelof, then we are going to struggle, even though Buendia was busy tonight.  Poor window, terrible performance, too many looking out of sorts and Emery will give us the same old rhetoric in his post match interview.  Bizot is not the answer either.

Look at the difference when we crossed the ball into their box - they were organised and committed and it was easy. We look fucking rotten.

We look as bad as we have ever under Emery. To not have scored a goal in 3 games is shocking.

Tomorrow should be the biggest day in Villa transfer history, this is a really dodgy time, because I see Uni as a very principled man, I think he would walk rather than be sacked, the club need to support him to keep him, or else.

The other thing is, next up, Everton if you think this was difficult that is going to be a nightmare.

The only team in England's top four divisions yet to score a league goal this season and never really look like doing so. Pathetic.

One of the commentators said they are fitter than us.

They're probably not. They're just playing like they really want to win, we are not.

It's been Gerrard-esque since the end of last season.

The third goal we don't even challenge the flick on. Bizot has no presence he's a competent sub goalie. Konsa and Cash are sulky little fuckers who can't concentrate. McGinn lots of running around but no quality, Watkins looks like he can't be arsed and hasn't woken up yet (somehow his touch is worse). Buendia was alright but for all his urgency there's nothing in dangerous areas. Maatsen is abysmal, scout needs shooting on that one.

All in all, a game that summed up our summers work and when Martinez leaves tomorrow and Costa doesn't sign because it's total made up bollocks there's going to be a lot of angry people.

How on earth are they going to sell tickets for Ł150 to watch pedestrian football by a load of sulkers and a bit of buffet at half time?
