We don’t get given penalties like that happens to Jack every game .

Shame he’s rarely in the box when he’s fouled then.

So annoying. Watford have looked dead and buried for large parts of this game.  They will go and win it now guaranteed. 

West Ham are safe now I reckon. 

Wham are safe, few weeks ago some were claiming Newcastle could be brought into the mix. Norwich, Villa and Bournemouth to go down, Watford score goals and we don’t.

Until that shocking penalty decision we were the better side and looked well up for it, can't believe how one wrong decision completely turned the match. We go a goal down and we give up. After that we were poor. 

Still cant understand why VAR didn't overturn, every person I spoke to thinks that was never a penalty, everyone in the Sky studio and commentary said it wasn't a penalty.. how can one person watching a video replay get it so wrong? Are players now allowed to jump 2 footed into a defender and win a penalty? missed that new law. If it was the other end of the pitch it wouldn't have been a penalty and our player would have been sent off for a 2 footed challenge with both feet leaving the ground

There’s no steel in our team, we are second to every ball.

Our captain is a sulking spoilt kid when we need a leader that shouts at and or motivates the team during games and gets them to pull their socks up. 

I’m so tired of this whole lack of confidence crap. I have nothing against losing a game of football but it’s the manner of which we lose makes my blood boil. Take the captains armband off jack tonight. Petulant and moody! A captain is supposed to embody the spirit of a team ffs. UTV

He’s afraid to take jack off ffs

Big shout out to all of you on Villa Talk that make games like this slightly less painful!

Bet no one wants a lift from Jack

There’s no doubting his ability but mentally I don’t think he’s got it. Making him captain was very premature

Sack him tonight.

Cant blame him for the first half but we’ve come out with nothing in the second half. It’s his job to pick them up and motivate them.

6 months too late. What’s the point now?

Ive turned it off. I’d rather stick hot needles in my eyes than watch any more of this. Zero fight we deserve to go down

That's a pen.

Again no fight! We need to surround the fat ref and call for the VAR ffs

Agreed on the first point but that’s what good players do. There’s only so much coaching does to an average player. You can’t just suddenly make Samatta, Trezeguet and El Ghazi do what their front 3 do. 

They have better players. Much, much better players. It wasn’t a pen and that’s cost us massively as we were putting in a good shift but if we’re all honest, we were never winning this match. They’re just so much better than us. 

Yep they are better buy it’s so frustrating that we just have no fight in us! No pressing, I can’t remember the last time we made a tactical foul for the love of Christ

They’re really good to be fair. Their wide players are showing us how it’s done at this level. They attack at such speed. 

We’re dreadful. 

They are so much faster at moving the ball and moving into space it makes you wonder what we do in training. 

just don’t bother coming out for second half. Lions we ain’t atm

If I was manager I’d have them walk off the pitch. This is **** ridiculous!

Never a pen. The game is bent

Same old though, good passage of play and some good chances not taken. Rinse & repeat 

Ahh , drinks break

So it looks like the plan is to keep it simple with nice quick passes, then give it to Grealish who will take on half the Man United team and lose the ball.... Luiz looks our best player again easily

The entire dean smith playbook right there! 

2 set pieces wasted. It used to be our specialty 

with calls like that offside you’d think we were playing at the theatre of plastic dreams 

Jack masterclass coming up to secure the transfer? 

We look out of breath just walking out of the tunnel

A point and I will be dancing around my living room

In reality, as soon as the window shut we cemented what would happen. And then in January the likes of drinkwater and baston show the levels of desperation we were at. 

I've got no problems with going down. Premier league football is dying. Its more for fans abroad now and just making up the numbers can get **** really.

I feel the same, the premier league is toxic, I actually enjoyed last season more even though I couldn’t watch as many games I spent more time on here especially on match days.

Will we be able to spend big if we go down? 

I think it will depend on how much we get for Jack and who ever else they come knocking for. Also hope we don’t repeat past mistakes by simply trying to spend loads.
