Tasty stuff.

Fair enough you have valid points, but i'm dreading the Barnsley game.

Why Grealish? He doesn't do anything.

Relegation is not a million miles away from what i saw yesterday and if the same performance and result happens against Barnsley then the writing will surely be on the wall!

I really don't think that Ipswich "fluked it" at all. Being at the match i and several others around me could see it coming in the second half and the half progressed it seemed inevitable. The young player they had Lawrence i think played a very astute game and it was him who we thought was most likely going to score of anyone on the pitch. They bossed the midfield for most of the game. Our defence now looks very nervous and it infects the rest of them. This bunch of players need some serious coaching to get them to play as a team and i can't see it happening at present.

I went to yesterdays match travelling up from South Wales. On watching the game and doing it intentionally from a neutral view I could see the differences in both teams play and i also reflected back on the games against Brentford, Forest and Wolves. One thing that stood out was the way that they were all comfortable with the ball and made great efforts to get it back. As opposed to Villa whose players seemed to have this idea that it was something to be avoided and when they did have it to hoof it (apart from Lansbury). The other teams also played as a team and did put the effort in and it would appear that Villa players do not actually put in a shift! In regard to Kodja yesterday he did start passing, but his service from the others was so woeful he may as well go back to doing it himself, that also includes Hogan who cut a very forlorn figure yesterday. He must be wondering just what (at the moment), joining Villa is going to do for his career. On numerous occasions Villa players got the ball back and then gave it back to the opposition, which was very frustrating. Taylor, Hutton and Baker being the worst three. In regard to the formation the 532 yesterday Hutton was so far up the pitch, with Taylor being so far down the pitch highlighted the disjointed nature of the team. Lansbury is an attacking midfielder, but was playing just in front of the defence, which meant that there was no attacking midfield. What should have happened yesterday in particular was Lansbury be up the pitch as say a N10 and the other two being support for both defence and attack. The wing backs should have been based on the half way line and moved up the pitch in tandem, which stretches the opposition. The three centre backs should be further up the pitch and not being so deep. This would mean the play would have nearly all have been in the opposition half and not ours. I think its called defending from the front. There is also something that others have seemingly not picked up on and it is this. When the opposition have a corner ALL the Villa players are back defending, which meant that when the ball went up the pitch it just came straight back! This has been going on for a few seasons now and is ridiculous. Throw ins also appear to be a problem as when do get a throw in nobody wants the ball. Whoever takes it is looking for someone to come for it and nobody does. Its pretty basic football that Villa fail to do. Suffice to say i left Villa Park feeling very frustrated, freezing cold with the highlight of the day being the chicken balti pie and the extra one i kept to be eaten on the way home.

Very well put. I went to yesterdays match travelling up from South Wales.

Very well put and food for thought.

Probably, but i know it has vanished from the news excuse the pun.

On the imediately our problem theme didn't they attack Poland at the same time so we should have declared war on them as well?

After all i identify as being a dog, but people kick off when i poo on their grass!

Probably

Who knows, i'm stuck on how many genders there are in humanity as according to some in New York there are 63 so far (and counting).

I find it weird that Hitler (fascism) is demonised yet Stalin (communism/socialism) is not. I think history nails it as Hitler was in championship in comparison to Stalin, Lennin and Mao. Funny as well that none of the communists/socialists spend their holidays in North Korea or Cuba.

This is dead now

I will leave this now as i did think there may have been some reasonable debate, but alas the keyboard warrior has taken over.

Thank you very very much for that. And yes divide and conquer has always been good for the people in power as it distracts people from what is really going on in the world and of course owning most of the media is always a boost for them.

Mmmmm lost me again?

Oh right now i get it sorry about that. Yes that's also a very disturbing case as is the chef lady in York who has vanished, totally bizarre. You would think that in today's hi tech world people cannot just vanish off the face of the earth.

Whatever happened to the free market.

I'm lost now that's too cryptic for me.

Has anyone looked at any of this? Its about people inexplicably going missing in wilderness areas near enough all over the world and now even in urban areas. The people doing the research strictly follow a criteria in all the cases. For instance they exclude any links to mental illness, crime ect. The main man is David Paulides who is an ex police officer and is very insightful and also only brings up the evidence and does not give any reason for why the people vanish. You can see a lot of the presentations on youtube and also hear a lot on coasttocoastam, wheredidtheroadgo ect. I find that on reading the books and researching the evidence that is available the whole thing is brain numbing in the extreme. For instance there are documented cases of children aged 2/4 years old walking 20/30 miles before being found and having crossed mountain ranges. This happens all over the world, not just America. One case involves a man running up a hill, checking in at the top with the race organisers and then running down again, one way up and one way down, but never getting down and no evidence of anything, he just simply vanished? Absolute crazy stuff that beggars belief! There is a website called www.canammissing.com The Australian cases are very interesting as well as the UK and American ones. For instance what has happened to the RAF man who recently went missing in Bury St Edmunds? (i think thats the right place). CCTV saw him go in down an alley with only one exit, but not come out again?

I would love someone to explain to me what exactly is the difference between a left government and a right government and also a far left and far right government is. Also whats the difference to a extreme far left and extreme far right government. All i seem to know is left is communism and right is fascism and as history tells us communism killed way more than fascism so it appears that the only thing any of them are good at is killing people.

Perhaps its a case of the keeper being unsure of the centre backs and the centre backs being unsure of the goalkeeper and therefore its never going to be right until they get together and work it out, concentrating on their weaknesses. Then they can become an effective unit concentrating on their weaknesses as a unit. The strengths look after themselves. Its like building a wall if you don't sort out the weak points first then no matter what the strengths are it will fall down as is happening now. Its very similar to doing a SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats). So we know what the strengths are:height, tackling The weaknesses are the lack of confidence in each other and as a unit to do the correct things and be an effective unit The opportunities are admitting that there are problems and therefore taking steps to rectify them and admitting that nothing is perfect and mistakes will happen, but the opportunity is their to fix them. The threats are there for all to see if they don't do the former then the latter is never going to change. If your car cannot go up the hill very well in 4th gear and for because of your stubbornness you don't drop down a gear then the car will always struggle and eventually it will breakdown, sounds simple but that's my analogy.

Taking the forwards off and putting wide men on was like having loads of bread but having nothing in the middle to make a sandwich! And to think he played under Alex Ferguson! There is no "never give up mentality" at this club anymore. Most of the players we have had recently are actually crap. The only people to have shined today were Bree, Hogan and Lansbury, the rest were crap!
