Burnley v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[brontebilly]

Some overreactions here.

We aren't the first team to be distracted by a final. Going deep in a cup competition is hard for precisely this reason.

Look at how many teams end up properly sacrificing the league when they go deep in a cup.

We are still 4 points clear of Bournemouth who have Man City up next.

Ah stop mate, our last three league performances have been an utter disgrace.

[Le Lapin]

Can't see this group of players getting anything from Liverpool or Citeh if they don't raise their game in a huge way. They look out of fight. I know they might have been leggy from Thursday, but that was shocking. Rogers was really bad today.

[Smithy]

Not a great performance. They happen.

Should have had a pen.

Oh well.

Bournemouth aren't catching us and we'll be in the CL next season.

Villa 

Bournemouth aren't the only risk.  If Brighton beat Leeds and an on-the-beach Man Utd at home on the last day, we need something from Liverpool or Man City.

On current form, we're not getting anything from either of those games, so we're relying Man City to beat Bournemouth, and Leeds or Man Utd to get something from Brighton.

Mings having a good old chuckle at full time there.

Yes I saw that, he should give his head a fucking good wobble. Don't like to see that.

Well said. Nice to see some balance.

[enigma]

Can't see us getting another point this season playing like this.

[taylorsworkrate]

Garbage result but Bournemouth need to win both and one of those is vs City.

Not really. If we lose both our games (can't see how we don't) then Bournemouth only need a point against City and to win their other game.

We may sneak over the line but it is so poor that it has got to this stage

You remember 94 right?

They won at Arsenal a few weeks ago and haven't lost since Jan 3rd. We're probably there but it's far from a Shay.

Morgan Rogers just looks disinterested too often - he suits Chelsea.

I didn't see that, and thought he ended up trying too hard. His form is a bit shot and he had a mate today no mistake, but disinterested? Not for me.

[Percy McCarthy]

Rubbish. All we had to do was be more careful in possession.

[eamonn]

Pitiful and shameful. Utterly disgraceful.

They are fucking mugging us off.
The can play like they this against Fulham, Spurs and Burnley and then turn it on in one game on Thursday.

If I didn’t know better, I’d call them a bunch of fucking frauds.

Forest were missing half their first team. Debatable whether we would have beaten them at full-strength. We're running on fumes, too reliant on Kamara. Huge summer ahead of player turnover. If we don't make CL, it's gonna be thin gruel next season.

Rogers has been bad for a long time.

If we end up needing anything, which I don't think we will, we're good enough to get it.

That's it. Not arguing any more over it.

Chill 

[ROBBO]

We didn't deserve to win plain and simple. We go ahead and minutes later Cash is fannying around instead of clearing up field 2-2. Can Mings go any slower and anyone offering decent money for Rogers i'd take it. This is Typical Villa always falling over when it counts. Unai has to take some responsibility leaving the changes late again. Burnley when they attacked did so with pace. It looks like we need to beat pool because because those beneath us are playing well. Mention to Watkins who put in all game.
