The crowd reaction killed it for me. We needed to get a striker on because we were never going to score. We took off the least effective, and most expendable midfielder, and the crowd reacted the way that they did.
The reaction was pathetic and ignorant, and further underlined that whatever this manager does he is one step away from ten thousand knives in his back.
For today at least, he did know what he was doing, and once again a section of our support have brought shame on the Aston Villa name.
Least effective? .......really!? Have you ever seen Marc Albrighton? Nzogbia and Ireland are the only creativity we have in that starting 11
