Burnley v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[andyh]

We won’t win another point this season.
All our eggs well and truly in one basket.

[eamonn]

Mings passing back to Martinez with a minute to go was bizzare.

Nah. In keeping with his nonchalance.

[Monty]

We've been underwhelming to atrocious in 4 of the last 5 in all comps. The 1 we were good in, we were incredible. I think it's maybe acceptable to feel some frustration with this!

[Clampy]

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.

[Goldie.7]

Rogers 0.

5 league wins in 5 months is truly pathetic. If another club pips us to fifth it is what it is.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

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.

Somebody needs to do an Ice Challenge. Shocking performance, the only positive from the game is nobody got injured despite them all playing like they were.

You remember 94 right?

Relevance of 22 years ago? If we don't get CL football we have a summer of scrabbling around the bargain basement for Sancho's on loan.

[LeeS]

Mings shit
Rogers dire
Cash embarrassing
Villa such a let down

[Villa Lew]

Against that opposition that was an unacceptable performance.

[Monty]

Some embarrasingly over the top reactions.

A couple. Most I think are perfectly within their rights to feel miffed at our failure to get the truly modest points target to make CL qualification mathematically certain from a perfectly normal fixture list over a period of over a month.

[MalcolmP]

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

Bournemouth only need a draw agst City and a win at Forest (4 pts) to go ahead of us on goal difference if we lose our 2 remaining games

[eamonn]

Pathetic all over the pitch.

Too casual from too many players, not enough effort from too many players. I really hope Emery comes out and eviscerates them in his interview. He's been way too polite after a number of turd efforts recently.

I doubt it. It'll be his usual mantra. "This is Premier League (smile). After game 36 we are 5th, and we are in a HYUUUGE European final."

This is what prioritising a cup looks like. Last year two clubs did it and finished 17th and 16th respectively.

We are doing it and are 5th with a 4 point cushion.

Some perspective.

[TonyD]

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. 

[Goldenballs]

Fucking shit. Again.
