Back from the game, and well, i dont quite know what to say about that......
First things first..... last minute winners away from home in the cup are bloody epic, and I dont care who it was against, but moments like that are what football addicts out of us. Absolutely fan-bloody-tastic, the away end went mental.
More rationally, we look very at home at this level.
Defensively we are just a joke. Comical really. First half we played OK, we contained the expected rush early on, put
Well, that wasn't very pretty, was it? I wrote on twitter that I felt uncomfortable about being outplayed (and we were very outplayed) by Norwich. Alan Hansen reportedly described our performance as embarrassing, and while i dont usually have much time for the miserable sweaty, on this occasion he was right. it was embarrassing.
I dont do knee jerk reactions, and while I remain confident that we will come through this, I'm not *quite* as confident as I was before. For me, what has changed
Welcome to "Deadly Doug ate my hamster". I hope you enjoy .... feel free to interact :-)
So, I was watching Chelsea on the old telly box at the weekend, and I think I've seen the future, or the present, or something, of where Lambert wants to take Villa - and I notice Aston Villa Review agrees with me, although I'll need to listen to the podcast to find out why .. I am listening as I type, so will let you know.....
Chelsea are, albeit at a very different level, going through the same kin
🤣 here in northern California we entered the “hot” season 5-6 weeks back and it will run until mid/late October. I will leave the conversions to you, but we’ve already had numerous 90+ days and look to have several near 100 in the middle of next week. Once summer truly takes hold we are pretty much 90+ every single day from some time in June until October. But it is dry, which makes an enormous difference. Lived in humidity (North Carolina & Texas) first 30 years of my life and dry is infinitely preferable
Sorry for the hijack, here’s a photo from 2 months back that is on-topic
I don’t get the mood on here. We lose one then we are doomed, win one and we will coast to the title. I thought we were done against Brentford and we’ve managed to get 7 points in 4 games - 1.75ppg. Even if you count Brentford then it’s 1.6ppg. Realistically we should win one of the next two. I think we only need one point. Yes we are **** but we were **** v Brentford too. I’m hopeful Zaniolo and Tielemans come back in Monday. It will make a world of difference.
Something else to mention. Both against Chelsea and Brighton we adopted a strategy to conserve energy. We don’t need to do that anymore with no Europe.
Quite a good game, Donny coming back into it now but Crewe look decent at the back. Very nicely poised and quite incredible considering Doncaster's recent run.
