Voinjama Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Was at the Hawthorns yesterday, that is now 15 times I have seen Villa play and still no defeats, and that is the honest truth. Saw myself in the crowd too, just behind the disabled section in the away end. Was actually a decent game, very impressed with Al Ahmaadi (sp) in the second half. I think the club should buy me a season ticket, I am clearly a good luck charm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 your point is right, pick up points when you are not playing very well. but, my fear is we are going down to low levels of performance, I thought we had progressed away from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voinjama Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Anyone see that stupid Baggies fan arrested just after the final whistle, try and take on 4 people at the same time. Utter fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie09 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Just read through the comments having been at the game last night. Can't understand the fuss about not starting with Gabby, Delph and Andi, as HH states they were running out of steam before the final whistle which is why we couldn't press for the winner. First half Albion were quicker and sharper - there was no tempo to our play. Despite Tonev's pile driver, he was a passenger in midfield as he was static and allowed their players to run past him on several occassions. He's not ready for the intensity of a derby game. We desperately need our full backs fit as neither Clark or Baker can play there. Long had so much time to control what was a hoof ball from the back for his first goal whereas every time we had possession they were snapping at our feet. Overall pleased with a point after an awful first 20 mins. Albion are an average team and we'll finish above them at the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 A continuation of our simply brilliant away record going back more than a year now, to 2oth October 2012, of having lost away only to Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, and Man City. A great platform and a great indicator of the character of the Team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwi1890 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Sylla was awful, his passing was shocking, btw I also hate when we spread the ball across the back four it makes me nervous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Is this the same Paul Lambert who has stuck with Wiemann through a terrible patch of form all season until injury? The same Paul Lambert who is clearly looking to build his midfield around Delph (the only ever present when fit). The same Gabby Agbonlahor who was supposed to be out for another two weeks... Some of the comments in this thread are absolutely laughable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillanousOne Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Guzan: 6 - not sure he could do anything about the goals Baker: 4 - Poor Clark: 5 - Got better as he grew into the game Vlaar: 8 - Easily our best player Bacuna: 5 - Error aside he did ok Sylla: 4 - No first touch or urgency KEA: 7 - One of his better games for us and great goal, starting to attack and pass forward as well as harrassing players and losing possesion alot Westwood: 7 - Great work rate and good goal Tonev: 6 - his shots are at least now on target and he looks dangerous, still lacks composure and good decision making Kozak: 7 - The best striker on the night Benteke: 5 - Won a lot of headers but still waaaay off the pace subs: Weimann: 7 - Provided urgency and threat Gabby: 6 - looked up for it Delph: 6 - Got heavily involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 It seems fairly simplistic to not credit lambert for the progress and improvement of Delph, Weimann and gabby. Just because he didn't buy them doesn't mean that they aren't his players or that when they play well, it doesn't count as a gold mark on his record. And Guzan definitely needs to be accredited to lambert. He was 100% gone before lambert got in touch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Avenue Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Clark playing left back really is a no no. The number of times first half we got forward and got the ball out to the left flank to find its Clark we're asking to take on a man or whip a cross in is so frustrating. On the other flank Bacunas crossing was quite poor but I just put that down to a bad day at the office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted November 26, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 26, 2013 So the song... "We know what we are, we know what we are, pride of the midlands, we know what we are" At what point did we stop singing that and they started too? Was it when they last beat us, or when they finished above us in the league? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted November 26, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 26, 2013 There really wasn't much else we could have done with the defense though. Other than playing 3-5-2. But that's a bit risky IMO. If Lambert had the choice Clark would not be playing LB. Could Lowton do a job there? Not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
