    Tactics wise was wrong today and player wise was wrong today. Wish I'd gone out for bloody mothers day now Teilemens on the left doesn't work, it just doesn't. Against poor opposition you can get away with his lack of energy, against strong sides you can't. Bailey central ? 5 at the back ? Lost the midfield battle as soon as that team sheet was published. Mcginns red card, it looked to me like he was late but caught him with his knee rather than booting him but only saw it from one angle. No complaints with the red though. Zaniolo and big Tim did ok when they came on, diaby was a total disaster. You know its a terrible day when werner scores Some self reflection required from the manager, down to all the players after that.

    Another appalling showing, he really has just dropped off a cliff, everything he touches turns to shite

    Tough one, it's touch and go and will go down right to the wire If I'm allowed to watch the game or the wife insists on us going out for a mother's day meal

    After emmental performance by the ref, we escaped with a draw, so I'm pleased.

    We won't sell Tielemans unless man utd or Liverpool offer big money for him, by all accounts he's settled in the Midlands as is his family, we dont need to sell him and hes a good player. He just doesn't have the athleticism to last more than 65 mins or so in a physical or high tempo game against quality opposition. Doesn't make him a bad player, he just needs to be used wisely so for me I wouldn't be starting him against a spurs team that start 100 miles an hour and try and play like that all game. After 50 or 60 minutes they normally tire which would be a good time to bring him on. We could use mcginn further up field for the first half and have a stronger athlete in there next to Dougie and then make the changes as and when. Tim being one of the only other players we can use in midfield especially if Ramsey is being rested or out. Tielemans for the last 30 or even 45 depending on how the games going would be ideal, I also expect he will have played at least 60 mins or so v ajax a few days before.

    He came on as a second half sub.

    While lenget has been decent enough as cover for pau, we just aren't the same. I would be looking at the potential to keep lenget for next season, dependent on how mings recovers. But certainly not on the wages barca are paying him.

    He does well against passive teams. Athletic physical teams he is anonymous. The way spurs play, if we have other options such as Tim next to Dougie and mcginn further forwards, I wouldn't be starting with teilemens.

    Yes. It's delightful Oldest went to the cup final last week, I was preying they would get hammered but just losing still made my day. I try and stay humble as with my father-in-law whose spurs and 2 of my best mates man ure fans, as we all know that being a villa fan comes with no guarantees. If we managed to get in the top 4, then I will big it up large, until then I'm just celebrating our wins and their losses internally.

    Thank goodness we got the late goal. Great football 1st half, 1970s football 2nd half. The long ball was just giving possession straight back to Luton but we continued with it through the 2nd half. Not sure why we changed our entire style of play but I hope we don't see that again if it doesn't work the first 3 or 4 times of trying. 3 more points on the board

    2 of my step sons support Chelsea, so for me seeing them lose gives me a warm feeling inside as I've had years of piss taking from them. Liverpool play city and also have spurs man u villa Brighton and West ham who are all in top half. Spurs have villa Liverpool man city arsenal Newcastle West ham Man ure have Brighton arsenal Newcastle man city Liverpool Chelsea Man city have man poo Liverpool Newcastle arsenal Brighton spurs West ham. Arsenal have man city Brighton villa spurs man utd They are going to be taking points off each other or sharing a point. If we can just keep winning we should get top 4 or better.

    Scores were looking good in the 76th minute Chelsea losing Spurs losing Poo drawing A went a bit tits up. Fingers crossed we can play well and grab all 3 points, in fact I don't mind if we play badly and take all 3 points.
  13. brummybloke
    This season he's gone from "Ffs Bailey!!" 90% of the time he was given the ball To Give it to Bailey ! it's becoming easy for him where before everything was a struggle. Well done lad

    While Ramsey was far better than he has been his decision making was very poor. We need his energy but I'm not sure he did 1 thing correctly with the final ball. Taking off Bailey ended pur attacking threat, very stupid to take him off bearing in mind he was getting the ball and doing something with it. Tielemans another poor showing after midweek. Not sure why these players have dropped off a cliff form wise but it's derailing our season. On the only plus side, we out played them for 75 minutes and if the correct final ball was made, should have scored 3 or 4 more goals. Another crap weekend another wasted 3 points and further away from the top 4. Disappointing.

    We've played well, had the majority of decent chances and picked the wrong option 9 out of 10 times. Ramsey guilty at least 3 times when we were attacking and in a great position, picking the wrong option, he also had a very good chance and put it wide. Cash, again calls for the ball, gets it and breaks down any forward momentum. Not sure if he's been told to not pass it forwards unless Bailey has come deep and man marked but its pretty pointless, wastes possession and allows them to re group when he can either progress it or pass inside to the ever open kamara but back it goes most of the time. Mcginn was the only one to take a shot when it had opened up and it took a good save to stop it thundering in. I would give it 10 to 15 minutes and if we haven't scored, look to diaby for Bailey as he's not been involved although he's not really been given the ball unless in tight spots away from danger. Hopefully we can pop 3 quick goals in to settle us all down

    Need to win this one for a few reasons. 1. To get back on track after dropping our standards over the last 6 or 7 games barring Sheffield utd. 2. To keep in touch with the top 4 3. To put distance between 5th and 6th 4. One of my mates will be an utter bell end if we lose as he's a huge man u fan. Pretty please 3 -1 to villa

    Subs made far far too late. Teilemens should have been off at half time, game was far to quick for him. We were poor, not helped by every ricochet falling in their favour, and every 50 50 being awarded to them. Almost glad we went out due to being the least of the 3 competitions. Disappointed but not devastated due to the lack of shape and aggression from our team for a lot of that game.
  18. brummybloke
    If we can take Carlos and teilemens off now please, and cash. 1st 2 not quick enough for this game and cash has been terrible
  19. brummybloke
    I doubt we will play as bad again this season. Carlos cash lenget doug kamara and teilemens have been very poor. Can't put a basic pass to a team mate in that half. Teilemens hasn't got the energy for the pace of this match and Carlos needs taking off before he is sent off as the ref blows his whistle every time he challenges for the ball. Maybe doug is still feeling ill because he had been quite anonymous this half. Out of the 3 things we are in the running for this is the least I'm interested in but at least play half decent.
  20. brummybloke
    Felt we fell apart after half time. Change in personnel made it very scrappy although I appreciate why it was done. Great result, shame diabys effort didn't go in as he may have got confidence from it, again sadly, he was rather poor bar 1 effort on goal. Would have taken a 1 nil all day long so 5 is brilliant. Too many changes crushed our momentum
  21. brummybloke
    1st half was very poor. Half time everyone could see it needed changing, diaby and teilemens were terrible and needed replacing. Only at 3 nil was the change made and we were instantly better. Diaby needs to be the sub not the starter. If only emery had bothered changing it at half time, we would have had a chance to get something from that.
  22. brummybloke
    Brilliant, now can we take invisible diaby off and ineffective tielmans ?
  23. brummybloke
    Diaby yet again useless, what on earth has happened to him ? Tielemans has been poor and those 2 are like playing with 9 men tonight. Get Bailey and zaniolo on for Tielemans and Bailey at half time.
  24. brummybloke
    Teilemens starting the second half exactly how he played in the 1st half.
  25. brummybloke
    Teilemens having a shocker and diaby absent. Some lazy play and there been lucky 3 or 4 times when the ball has broken outside their area, mcginn has been hovering and each time it's fallen no where near him. Thank goodness for emi some of our own making but 4 or 5 saves in that 1st half. I can see diaby not lasting much longer in this match. Zaniolo or Bailey will be on.
