They were very jammy yesterday and Speroni must have had a back hander! They will run out of luck eventually.

I don't know for sure but I assume he played behind the striker for them. Playing in the role of Kante is just not for a piss weak player. I think he scored a hatrick last season playing off Davis against Norwich. Grealish being injured at the time. Opposition know he flaps playing the holding role and will just pass back to our defence no forward thoughts at all. It's easy for them to force mistakes hence the goals we concede. Same when Whelan plays there both slow in mind and body. Conor needs to play further forward where he is suited or not at all for me. Sign a proper holding midfielder that has pace and an eye for a pass with a football brain.

I don't condone the booing but it did give the players a kick up the arse! First 10 we looked lively then they get a foothold and we kept giving them the ball or just hoofing it out of play under no pressure. Find ourselves 2-0 down and the crowd boo another aimless kick out for a throw in. From that point on we looked like we cared and got back into it. 2-2 is a fair result and I hope they take some confidence from that to the next games.

you can lock it for sure and it only gets opened again when we ever get in the top 6!

one decent set piece the rest was shite! that freekick at the end was utter garbage. Annoys the hell out of me as a player so weak I don't understand why he is being asked to anchor the midfield and Thor to play further forward bizarre. Both fish out of water.

when they play Leeds and Sheff Utd next 2 games

Stress fracture means it's just time to heal so I guess they know how long it takes. I think we were quite lucky in the fact one more kick and he could have been out for the season. It's a pisser but maybe we can get momentum at the right time going into the play offs!!

A mate of mine met him on the train at Watford said he was a top bloke and had a good chinwag! Loving life apparently nice to hear.

Yeah but in those days Villa fans would go to the sty with their mates and vice versa. Madness to our generation but my old man tells me it used to happen loads. Not sure when it all changed but interesting non the less!

Kane and Son out for a while means that their champions league place is at peril for their move to the new stadium. It could be messy if they miss out on that money pot. Shame!

Sherwood won away at Spurs there is still time for them to combust hopefully

Bryan took a break from Roxy Music for 20 years must have missed that Utd actually look decent first half the bastards!

What is your prediction for the top six oh wise one and where will Villa finish!?

Good result for us we need to win tomorrow to narrow the gap on the play offs. Leeds will win the league but 2nd is up for grabs if we can put a run together.

I have nothing against Leeds had a great time before 1996 League Cup Final with their fans. Spying will give you an advantage at defending set pieces and so on. It's not as bad as buying players when you are banned to do so but still it is cheating.

Think Jokanovic is on his way to Forest got to be the only reason he did not want to speak to Stoke.

So he is to Utd what Tim Sherwood was to Villa initial success but ultimately found out? I am hoping the 6-0 beatings are coming soon starting against Spurs!

Dembele from Spurs to some Chinese team for 9 million!? I think this bloke is quality why so cheap is it his injury record!? We should sign him for that price obviously we can't afford him or the astronomical wages he will get but still 9 million!!?

As I said last week Monk is perfect for them. He has polished the turd well but he cannot buy anyone has a points deduction round the corner what motivation is that. They have parachute payments for another 2 seasons and a very good squad at Stoke if they offered it him he would take it. Younger and and more forward thinking than Moyes and Fat Sam.

I assume Deano gave him permission to discuss the possible loan and talk to Wolves. The only concrete evidence is what Dean said about it's upto the player so he can hardly make a decision without going and talking to Wolves. That is my take on it but obviously could be wrong.

You listen to ex footballers and they talk about having a strong spine. Nyland has been weak we have now replaced him. Our best defender this year was Axel he is now out. Best Midfielder Jack out and it looks like best forward Tammy is out too. Even the best teams in the world would struggle in this situation. Our first 11 is equal to anything in this division if we could get them all back fit we would have a chance. As it stands we will be eeking out points till the end of Jan. It's a kick in the nads but that is football! hopefully we sign a couple more to get us firing again.

Well what better way to repair that mental state than go to the place you had all the success!?

if Tammy goes use the wages we paid him for Benteke. He would destroy this league.

10k season ticket holders could not be arsed the magic of the cup!
