Bournemouth v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Woody17]

Never a foul that FFS.

Watkins gets the ball running up the pitch and not one player near him

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

You just know Bournemouth will win this.  :'(

Commentator just said Tammys goal last week was ruled out for offside, WTAF?

[jwarry]

This ref is massive ******.

For someone who’s supposed to be our best referees he’s been shocking

[kippaxvilla2]

Fcuking hell I feel physically sick.

We have become the total opposite of pre Christmas team.

Lack of squad depth screws us over yet again. No idea what the answer is when the only way we can try to improve is by selling our better players every year. Rinse and repeat.

I think the squad's fine, to be honest.

But what are the odds of getting lengthy injuries to all three of our key midfielders at once?

Imagine Rice, Odegaard, and Merino are all out for Arsenal for the next three months. Their title challenge would be fucked and everyone in the media would be endlessly bemoaning their awful luck.

It's absolutely this, just rank bad luck.

[enigma]

Have we had a shot this half?

[andyh]

Bailey. Fuck off again
Absolute dross man

[AlexAlexCropley]

Bailey has been atrocious

[Halfway to Moseley]

We’ve barely crossed the halfway line this half.

[PeterWithesShin]

Been so long since we had a shot it was in black and white.

The difference is that Arsenal would just go out and spend a few hundred millions to replace them. (Transfer windows permitting of course).
