Aston Villa

McGinn's goal today was an absolute belter. Worldie.

Just seen this. What a goal...worth checking out. Neves would be proud of a shot like that

Brucey cliche bingo post match yesterday - saw it on SSN and he's a disgrace.

And yes, he says some fans have never liked him. Blues link innit.

Jon Hatson was defending him on 5Live and managed to convince a Villa fan that Bruce needed more time...

No...you've got to view it from this angle to fully appreciate it: https://twitter.com/WittonRoad/status/1043519792089587714

Oh that is beautiful. Great strike. Love that angle of it too

 

[Tom Hark]

Fair play - on a par with Ruben's, that (and from pretty much the same place).

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Lovely hit. And they lost the game. HAHAHAHAHAHA

Mind the fucking chasm.

There’s some who will never accept me here, but that’s part and parcel of management.

Twat. Maybe they don't accept you because the results have been shite and the football has been worse than shite.

I still believe that the team we have will be a threat in this division.

So they should be, look at your budget compared to everyone else.

We all look for time. That’s the magic word.

You've had two years and 100 games.

No matter how you dress it up, it’s still a new team and people have only been here for a few weeks.

a) It's a new team (to a point) because you decided to build last year's team on loans. When you loan things and can't afford to keep them, they have to go back. Fairly obvious stuff.

b) Elmohamady, Jedinak, Chester, Hutton, Adomah, Hourihane, Grealish and Kodjia all started on Saturday, they were all around last season (as were five of the seven subs) so how is it a new team?

I heard that interview in the car on Sat and I nearly crashed when he said the team would be ok "given time" .

 

[Deleted Cyber]

Lovely hit. And they lost the game. HAHAHAHAHAHA

Mind the $#@!ing chasm.

Paddington! Warn me before u post this. Nearly choked!

I can't stop watching jedinak not moving a muscle. He just stands there on his heels - is it just me who thinks he should be more ready for action?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Top bantz from Brucie tonight as he picks a starting XI with no wingers and has four wingers on the bench.

Top bantz from Brucie tonight as he picks a starting XI with no wingers and has four wingers on the bench.

I saw that too. Surely both Bolasie and Adomah are both better than Bjarnason?

I notice he's still persisting with Jedinak at CB too.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

“I am convinced Mile Jedinak will be a centre-half. I saw it the other night. He has been, in my opinion, unfairly criticised because results have not gone for us.

“If you analyse the goals we have conceded, we have had far too many individual errors, far too many. However, the team for me has not functioned defensively.


“I think I know what I am talking about with a centre-back. I am convinced it is his way forward. He proved it the other night. He provides a certain physicality which the team don’t have if he is not in it.

"The other night" was against Rotherham by the way. And the individual errors are partly Jedinak's.

They've had James Collins training with them, I'm sure he does this stuff as an elaborate work of self-parody.

 

[The Bear]

Calling him a dinosaur nowadays is being unfair to dinosaurs. At least they went extinct eventually.

I take it Sky don't allow their red button match choice on Fridays. Is it just Tue/Wed games?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

This is on the red button, 8pm kick off though (if you were trying at 7.45 then it won't have worked )

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He's playing Grealish on the wing, isn't he? Fucking hell, he must be determined to get a pay off.

Villa Talk is going to be tremendous tonight...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Centre half at right back, defensive midfielder at centre half, right back at left back, attacking central midfielder on the left wing, defensive midfielder on the right wing. It's a work of art.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

It's Saunders-esque. It really is. With this clown in charge Villa are never coming back.
