How many times have the players slipped? Jeez

Baller

Improving in the final third. Great to see. If he continues on that trajectory he'll be one of the best fullbacks in the league.

That should be a read surely?

Just watched the last 10 minutes of the game. Another joke of a ref?

This line up. Oh well, I'll keep quiet until the end of the game. But looks like a really poor choice and makes me doubt the manager. Hopefully there's a system change and I'll be proven wrong and ignorant.

One of the problems is that a lot of our play happens on the left side of the pitch in between, Digne, Ramsey, Buendia and Philipe. Making it easy to defend against. Theres plenty of space open on the right side, but whenever the ball is switched, its McGinn or an overlapping Cash and our play slows down or breaks down, if they manage to do a anything its a predictable cross towards the backpost. Another problem is that with the play happening on the left. And Cash bombing into the space on the right. We're completely open, with both the fullbacks attacking at the same time. While we're at the most vulnerable we pass it to the players who's most likely to break down play. I'd rather we'd have Cash as defensive fullback. Drop Buendia down to midfield for McGinn and play Baily or Traore on the right. Makes us far more unpredictable and also adds a threat on the right side which will make us harder to defend against.

We played well first half. Baffled by the subs though.

Hate saying it. Should be dropped st the moment.

This ref..

Poor sub I think. Hope I'm wrong

Ings looking 10 times the player of Ollie(on current form).

We'll be struggling as long as thuggish Newcastle is allowed to use their arms to hold players down and pull them to the ground. We're getting frustrated and its affecting our game.

Playing like shit. But what a **** useless ref. Our players constantly being held and thrown to the ground and he completely ignores it.

Yup right infront of the ref who ignored it. Happend plenty of times to Watkins as well.

Outside. Our players being held and thrown around multiple times, no free kicks given.

Strong, great with the ball at his feet. Could have been interesting to see him link up with Coutinho and Buendia, oh well glad to see him do well.

I'm just curious about the reasoning behind it.

How on earth was he at fault for any of the goals?

Was involved in all 3 goals conceded. Looks half arsed and completely off the pace in all of them. His head must be somewhere else, terrible performance topped of with the sending off.

I got a tear in my eye. Lovely watching him come through and perform like this.

McGinn seems to be holding quite a bit. Been doing a poor job so far, always on the backfoot and to slow to catch up.

Ref ignoring clear fouls on villa players.

Remeber from school a kid was hit in the head with a 1/4 filled plastic bottle of coke that was thrown at him. He got a brain hemmorage and was hospitalized. It's dangerous, absolutely moronic to make it sound as trivialities.

Did exactly the same
