    Oh give me a break. We were on a 15 game home winning streak and had just beaten Man City and Arsenal back to back. We were playing a side who have 16 points after 31 games. That's an embarrassing excuse.

    The only game I'm confident of us winning of that lot is Bournemouth home. We havent won a game against a decent side since Arsenal in December. Our record against the top 8 since then is this LLLLDL

    We had a chance to go top at Xmas and failed to beat bottom of the league at home, scraping a last minute draw we didnt deserve. We had a chance to make a statement win against Spurs at home and got thrashed. We had a chance to put the pressure on Spurs by playing before them and bottled a 2-0 lead. We're mentally fragile in big games.

    Sorry but this is absolute bollocks. The media have been praising us all season and have constantly ridiculed Spurs for years because they wont win anything with talented teams. But by all means play the victim card if you like. Everyone's out to get Aston Villa. We're turning into Liverpool fans it seems.

    Why not just wait until it's decided? Get some fresh air or something.

    I'm no defeatist but It's far more likely that we finish about 6 points behind Spurs than ahead of them. I dont care what fixtures they have left. We scraped a draw at home to Brentford when 2-0 up. We're mentally fragile and have blown big games several times this season. As soon as we get close, if we do again, we'll blow it again. The only way we're getting CL football is if 5th place gets us it. Whatever will be will be on that front.

    Haven't people got better things to do with their weekends than watching and stressing over another team's result with 8 games to go?

    My priority, as it has been all season, was to win the Conference League. We are the best team in the competition and we have a better chance to win it even at this stage than the finals we've reached in the last 15 years simply because of the opposition we will face, if we reach the final, won't be as good as Man Utd, Arsenal or Man City. I don't get giddy about the thought of Champions League football as much as most on this forum do. I know it would be something new and exciting but a trophy is a memory that will last forever, especially a European one. Ask Newcastle fans how good reaching the CL was for them. I mean, they've gone from strength to strength I would take winning the Conference League even if we fell to 6th in a heartbeat. Quite frankly, I would question anyone who says otherwise why they even support a team in the first place.

    Really poor today. Final ball was shocking all game. Wasn't effective cutting in either as they seemed to read him.
  10. R.Bear
    Two points dropped. It's no good resting players midweek is you spontaneously combust when 2-0 up, at home, against a team who had basically given up, in 5 minutes. We should hang our heads in shame after **** that up. Just what we needed before a big European tie.
  11. R.Bear
    Bailey's final ball has been horrendous today.
  12. R.Bear
    If we lose this, it's one of the very worst games in Villa's Premier League history. Make no mistake.
  13. R.Bear
    This is about as typical Villa a thing as you will ever see. Dominating a game only to throw it away in 2 minutes.
  14. R.Bear
    ROGERS

    2007. 13 losses in a row in the Premier League. 8 of them we didnt score in. In that time we also lost an FA Cup tie, also with scoring. We did win a League Cup tie there in 2012 against a second XI. For what it's worth.
  16. R.Bear
    He caught that rather well.
  17. R.Bear
    Amazing pass. That was the sort of Ollie finishing from when he's on a dry spell.
  18. R.Bear
    I think if we get a goal early, we're gonna batter this lot.
  19. R.Bear
    Diaby and Bailey. Interesting.
  20. R.Bear
    As I've already explained, it's a misunderstanding. I just worded my post poorly.
  21. R.Bear
    You misunderstand. I was saying the defence and goalkeeper are merely ok. As in that's it, ok and nothing more.
  22. R.Bear
    Thanks for coming on here to tell everyone how much you dont care about something. A brilliant contribution. Also the bit about not watching and England game on TV for a decade is clearly utter bollocks.
  23. R.Bear
    You can say that about every England team/manager in history. England squads have failed spectacularly in past years. Group stage exits, limp knockout exits. Southgate hasnt won anything obviously but his record in tournaments is light years ahead of everyone outside of Alf Ramsey. People overrate this England squad. The defence and goalkeeper are ok, that's it. For all the talk about the attacking options and world class players England have, yeah so do other teams, and more of them.
  24. R.Bear
    Even though he's done a good job. And he has, people saying otherwise are living in a dreamworld with a clear agenda. But having said that, I cant stand the man. Even ignoring his Villa hatred, his banal interviews, company man persona and his charisma vacuum personality make him impossible to like.

    Matty Cash

    R.Bear replied to paul514's topic in Villa Talk

    Cash was excellent today. The run when he skinned the defender and put a cross in was superb. He looked furious that no-one was offering themselves and I agreed with him.
