Our defence was decimated when we played them.

We still dominated the game at Villa Park. At Old Trafford they made a change to their formation and we were slow to react and they took the initiative. But we should have so both.

I’ve been a Villa fan since ‘88 . This is the worst Manure side ever. They’re so shit but have one or two players that can create a moment.

Reputation has got them the points they have. How we dropped 6 points to these scummy clearings in the woods I’ll never know. 

Brentford should have had at least 12. 

Mason Mount back in England contention .

First 25 they were the better team but since that Ait Nouri chance we wrested control and dominated the game. 

As for O’Neil if we had Kamara, McGinn etc then they don’t get the ball.

Poor first 25 but we took control after but we didn’t keep it simple enough at times. If we do then I think we can get another two or three.

The worst scenario for me would be Ramsey going to someone like Newcastle and getting someone shit like Longstaff in exchange plus a token gesture of £10-15m.

SHA fans have been going on about them moving to that site for ages. Apparently its been bought and therefore isn't an option.

Anyway, we aren’t moving. At least, not under the current ownership and probably never, for a multitude of (good) reasons.

 

And the obvious reason being Vilers are not allowed in town ……

mate!

We need a new stadium on the current site.

People need to realise that the Championship and below is no where near The premier league in terms of fitness strength and conditioning.

The fitness levels of premier league players have been getting higher for a while now. 

once Rogers is Premier League fit he’ll be a huge asset.

It is sad news, whoever it is.  I have lost friends after literally watching them whither away.  My Dad has cancer (under control we think and hope) and my Mum recovered from lung cancer.  Bastard disease, my heart goes out to them - they might be Royals but they are still human beings and now William has both his wife and Dad fighting it.  Terrible. 

Hopefully your father beats it.

What a name. Worth the admission fee alone.

Michael Owen on the segment with Howard Webb asked why the foul on Konsa wasn’t spotted immediately even though it was pretty blatant.

@Vive_La_Villa is correct about Gabby especially between ‘07 and ‘09.

Now back to Duran I think he needs a Teddy Sheringham style striker next to him to get the best out of him. Or a Buendia type player. I don’t think Ollie and Duran can work as a two. 

When he played on the left earlier in the season one thing he did do was solidly hold an end up on the left defensively. 

A nine match winning run to end the season would be nice.

They certainly have at least a handful of good players IF they go down.

Personally I don't think they will

Who you thinking? 

Chopping and changing the back line and midfield due to injuries will never be beneficial to the defensive record. 

It was a performance full of grit and determination. 

Barcelona under Pep used to average 70% possession and have 10-15 shots per game. Hardly passive and lazy possession. It’s called controlling the game. It’s what Don Unai wants. 

I still believe that we need to beat one of the top 3 in the run in to get 4th.

How difficult can it be? Clearly handball

Annoying that we gave spurs the respect we did. 

We were tired and I think it was a symptom of the first game where admittedly they should have had 3/4 in the first half. Only mistake Don Unai has made in hindsight. 

Next season I hope we try and blitz them first half. 

5 wins. Get those 5 win lads. 

We should be beating all the teams left if we play like we are capable of playing. 

I LOVE DURAN!
