Bent can't come on now anyway, unless we have been given special permission to use 4 subs.

Bannan needs selling ASAP, he is totally **** woeful.

Resting him to play against League 2 Defenders?

I don't think so, I just think Lambert has no clue with subs.

We can't defend so what are we doing - sitting back defending.

Really is so stupid and taking off N'Zogbia is a poor decision, he was a major outlet and even though he's greedy at least he makes things happen and panics defenders.

We are starting to look shaky at the back again, if we manage to win this it'll be more luck than judgement.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING LAMBERT??!!

I am sorry, but he has no idea with subs and stuff.

Dick head ref.

STOP this stupid passing it around at the back. Does my **** head in as we always end up giving the ball away.

If Lambert was under the illusion that he could send this lot out and defend a 2 goal lead, then he's much mistaken. We need at least another 2 goals.

What the **** Lambert, why is he bringing that tit on for?

**** sake, same old Villa

Same again in the next 45 Villa.

Zoggy paying back his fee today - just needs to pull the trigger a bit more.

Come on Villa, huge second half coming up!

You're just a shit Benteke - hahaha love it, great support there today as usual!!

Unlucky Lichaj, great football. N'Zogbia is looking superb.

They can shoot from 25 yards all night as far as I am concerned.

From what we've seen so far, we'll catch them on the break at will if they pile forward, Zog & Gabby playing really well.

Awesome Gabby!!!

Why doesn't Westwood take are corners normally? So much better than Bannan!

Cos' Bannan thinks he's Zidane

Delph looking so much better without Bannan beside him.

As for Bennett, I said he's getting exposed, not blaming him it was a general observation. He does like a trick though and that is quite worrying.

**** off Olsson you prick.

And ref, this ain't the NHL??!!! Just stood there watching haha

Vlaar has brought some class back into this defence. Clark, Baker etc... just hoof it or header it as far as they can. Just then, Vlaar cushioned a header and kept us possession. We need him to stay fit if we are to have any chance of staying up.

Get the **** in.

What was it like?

He got it on edge of box, turned the defender and smashed it from 20-odd yards. Proper screamer, no back lift, no 'keeper on the planet would have saved it.

Bennett getting very exposed already

WHAT.A.****.GOAL

Weimann is out 'sick'. To be fair, I'd be **** sick too if I had to play in this team each week.

Here we go then, expecting another lame, clueless performance.

If we lose this, I really can't see how Lambert can stay. I am also beginning to wonder if he's been told he's out if we lose this, hence the lack of any signings this month.

Reo-Coker on a free would be a start.

At the back, Per Kroldrup is on a free and better than what we have (Vlaar aside).

As for others that would cost nowt, I'm quite sure after a bit of research the following are available...

Albin Ebondo

Matthias Langkamp

Romeo Castelen

Andreas Ibertsberger

Asier del Horno

Zdenek Grygera

Any of them lot are better in their positions than what we already have and would not command a transfer fee.

Yes, Sissoko would cost that much over 4 years but who ever see's out a contract now days??

I won't proclaim to know what wages players are on at this club but I'd rather we paid a guy £75,000 per week who actually will add something to the team than 4 or 5 players who are absolute shit - like Bennett, El Ahmadi, Bannan etc...

Like Dmitar Berbertov? He'd be one who you'd classify as being up "for the fight" is he

I'd classify Berbatov as a top quality, International, goal scoring striker with huge experience at this level. Something that we have in Bent but due to crap decisions and poor management, we may as well not.

I'm actually starting to think VillaCas is related to Lambert in some way. I'd be interested to know what he'd think if this was Mcleish producing this managerial performance.

Someone said a few pages back about playing like Mcleish did. I'd take that right now because he at least kept us up. The way Lambert is going, we might as well draw the curtains and kiss everyone goodnight.
