Maybe not the absolute worst.

But considering how bad the opposition are and how much we needed a win at this stage of the season (not just for this year but next) that has to make the Top 10 for all-time bad results.

Pau missing that header, Onana missing that chance at the end, we created fuck all else as far as I can remember.
I didnt understand taking Luiz off before Beundia, but there was so much else wrong and this has been the pattern now since mid January.
Dreading Wednesday as it stands

I thought it was obvious subs were needed at half time. We lost focus against the worst team in the division in 15 mins or so before half time and it needed to be addressed. Maatsen for Digne, Tammy for Ollie and Barkley for Buendia. Get Rogers onto left. Emery like v Leeds left it stupidly run for another 15 mins. Then he lost his mind completely with the first two subs.

Dont think Ive seen a manager having a drink while watching a game neither .

O’Leary used to do it.

At no point did we look like we were dominant, there was no sustained pressure, it was containment football.
There was no energy or ambition, just trying to contain an absolutely abject Wolves team.

It’s up there, because of its importance as well. We are absolutely chucking in our chance at Champions League.

The worst team in Premier League history. Absolutely fucking shameful. There is nothing that comes close. 3rd in the league? You abject fucking cowards.

They're not the worst team in Premier League history. They were in a death spiral under their previous manager but Edwards has improved their performances. Do you think our 2016 vintage would beat that Wolves team tonight?

I am utterly disgusted. That was one of the most embarrassing performances in our history.

Not a surprise as soon as they scored you knew it was game over. They are dreadful but showed some fight and wanted it more. We were weak and predictable. He absolutely cannot pick Watkins against Chelsea. Deserved fuck all.

The shape and attacking patterns are so wrong st the moment, it looks exactly like the start of the season.

I think the players had been drinking during the game as well.

From a bottle of water, yes. But that was an odd look. Mind you, the conditions looked bloody horrible.

I wonder if Villa Park will start to get restless if we start badly against Chelsea next week? There'll be an atmosphere, but not one the club would have hoped for!

Still cant believe he left Watkins and Buendia on with those first subs.
