Burnley v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[dorsetvillian]

One point from Spurs and Burnley is almost comical. The difference in attitude today from Thursday was remarkable.  The Spurs gamble has gone full circle. What the fuck does Unai now do against Liverpool. Personally forget the final, go out and win the game full strength. Let the final take care of itself. The thought of missing out on CL in the league to Bournemouth is depressing.

Some embarrasingly over the top reactions.

Frustrating really. We do try and walk it into the net too often. Its great when it comes off but we need to have a pop more often. I wasnt expecting the same level.of performance as the other night but we should have beaten them.

Having a pop worked wonders in Nov-December but apparently it wasn't sustainable and it looks like that was correct.

If anything, we were “having a pop” too often today.

We had quite a few shots from outside the box today, unfortunately they were all poor efforts.

There are overreactions and then there are some of the comments on here.
I’ll have to raise my expectations a bit higher as I’m clearly not expecting enough.

Indeed. I mean, a 4 point cushion and a Europa League final. Two bites of the cherry plus the prospect of ending the trophy drought.

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

Fuck it. The players and management don't seem to be arsed so I guess they know what they're doing. The point could end up being important. I have to say I'm not too scared of Liverpool, and the draw will suit them too.

A draw doesn't suit either anymore.

A useful point won, well done boys.  UTV

Silicon Valley burnout casualties call this 'toxic positivity' 

If Silicon Valley had more fellas named Billy Walker working there instead of the Chads and Todds, maybe AI could be put back a few years in favour of the human spirit.

Not confident 115 beat bournmth neither

Plus they don’t play until after our Liverpool game. 
So we will have to put some effort into that game which we shouldn’t have had too.

Also unfortunately we are recently the gift that keeps on giving as far as Liverpool are concerned. No matter how they're playing we find ways to gift them points.

we are not going full strength neither . . .  expect mings , maatsen , barkley etc  not that ross was bad today , he had some credit.. Id imagine sancho and dougie ..

least of all us with our poor goal difference. we'll beat Liverpool though.

No offence to Tyrone Mings, who has been a decent servant to us, but I really hope we never see him in a Villa shirt again. He is finished at any decent level

Last home game, a few days before a major final, were going to batter them.

Too many poor performances. Cash and Martinez really poor for the goals.

Mings being selected mystifies me. He is totally gone at this level and really impacts the way we play.

Stonewall penalty mind.

[andyh]

Liverpool have nothing to play for other than cementing 4th with the extra £2.5m in prize money.

We will be putting out the stiffs to protect the main players for the cup game.
It’ll be spurs all over again

[Tayls_7]

I'm not sure if there's another team who try to economise their effort in quite the way we do. If it pays off with our first major trophy in decades and CL qualification it will be quickly forgotten but if it all goes to shit it will be rightly castigated.

With our reserves?

Totally, him and a few others prob their last season with us.
