Here we go

**** horrible challenge, prick went in to hurt him there

It will be a brave man to call him shit now..They'll be after you in force!

What a half. Been a piece of piss. Actually excited about Konsa and Hause in the wide CB spots. 3 ball playing centre halves let's us control the game better and takes the pressure off those two positionally

Some right boo'ers this Burnley lot

We werent winning this with 433. He's changed it around. Can't ask for much more than that. Well I could ask for a certain player to be dropped but I might out as well go outside and have a piss in the wind.

No, I think you are absolutely right and I do point a lot of the blame at Richard Madeley.

I'd happily steal their hard-drive and appoint it Sporting director instead of Suso.

Unbelievably naïve of him to basically go into the season with only two strikers and I'd say borderline arrogant to have only brought in the type of players he has. Ok, no-one wants a Pulis or Allardyce approach but the side is ridiculously lacking in pace and physicality. We have been absolutely rag-dolled in this league at times and It's like he just had an attitude that he was this top coach who would just be able to outplay and pass around teams in the premier-league which is ridiculous as a newly promoted team going into the most physical league in the world. At what point during the 140 mill spend does someone point out in addition to the centre halves, we might actually need a few players capable of defending a high ball into the box from corners and freekicks? It's a tough league and for me he has bought a bunch of fannys in the most part who get knocked over by a gust of wind.

Its mind boggling. Its like taking a fat f**ker out of the holte putting him upfront and then saying the fact he never gets a touch or a shot is down to shit service from the rest of the team. The blind spot some have with this man is astonishing. I do wonder if the same excuses would be made if it was Keinan Davis and the performances were the same.

His movement reminds me of those charity matches they play at Old Trafford.. and i'm not talking about the 45 year old ex pro's.

We'll be talking about Wesley in 30 years time. Truley cemented in villa folklore.

The whole team. Where was the fight we had when leeds did it last season nowhere.

He's retarded

The thing with smith is...i dont expect any manager to get anything out of this pile of shit. Obviously he has to take the blame re recruitment along with that gimpy Spanish richard madeley.

Mcginn, Mings and Grealish were outstanding at the beginning of the season. These **** fairies were getting away with it.

140 mill spent, 100+ on absolute shit

Wesley having an impact today, I'll take that.

I wish someone would hit the targett

Hopefully that gets the conor haters off his back for a week

Conooooooor!! Thats why you play him

You can't defend corners with only 2 players who can jump (center halves).

Regardless of tactics our team is basically Mings, Grealish and Mcginn. We need all 3 to be on it to win games. The rest of the team are just periphery players, airy fairy...good when the going is good but not good enough or with enough character to affect the game themselves. Passengers. The level of pressure on those 3 is ridiculous and it was never sustainable. It's why we'll go down imo. It's so disappointing because with them and Heaton we had an incredible core and even if we couldn't get the quality in this summer we just needed some solid burnley style players around them to stay safe this season.

We are an absolute shambles at the moment.

I know your view on this and what you say is logical. In normal circumstances I would agree that a poor player couldn't have that impact on the whole team. However, Wesley really is extraordinarily bad enough (again I know you don't agree) to be an outlier. You can carry a player for a while and work around limitations through tactics but over time it is going to wear on players having a front man you cant trust and fully expect to **** things up. God knows as a fan its frustrating to watch, for a player under the pressure of playing in the premier league and running the hard yards it must be soul destroying. But you'd have to view Wesley as bad I personally do to believe that to be the case. Edit - F**k I thought I was in the Wesley thread.
