I think we are papering over a lot of cracks at the moment..

I don’t really. I think there is one large Kamara shaped crack, a smaller Onana shaped crack and a Rogers crack that sometimes disappears

It all came from the back, too slow and no incisive passes.
It was, though I thought Mings' passing was a bit more incisive than his performances of late.

Peak Buendia when he came on. Ollie was also at it. Everyone else was poor.

Feel like I've seen that exact Cash mistake half a dozen times this season. As soon as he shaped to come inside, I knew they were going to score. Bit harsh, given his overall contribution this season, but very frustrating.

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.

I’m more concerned with Brighton, they have two very winnable games

Sky don't deem the Buendia foul worthy of inclusion in the highlights. QED, Villa fans are wrong.

Poor result, that said normally I would have said this point is enough, the problem is we have Liverpool and Man City to play and a final stuck in the middle, its all still to do.

A lot of that performance down to fatigue.
What I don’t get is why Rogers plays for 90 minutes when he is obviously totally fcukd.

I feel like the story behind this is waiting to come out. It is inexplicable

I struggle to understand how standing on someone’s foot , taking their boot off without touching the ball is not a penalty.
Once the ref does the 2 hand cutting signal VAR are never going to review it.
BTW Taylor is a xxnt.

Walker's a twat. He took his penis out in a bar and showed it to a woman a couple of years ago while his kids slept soundly at home.

Yeah it’s annoying - but to be honest we shouldn’t be relying on a late penalty call against Burnley. If we had turned up today we’d have won, we didn’t and so we didn’t.

Paul I largely agree with your postings, but cmon successful teams have been relying on such moments for ever, football history is littered with them. Arsenal got one today.
