romavillan Posted February 9, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2017 Gardner not quite as shit as he has been scapegoated to be perhaps? Good to see Baker up there too, Kodija I would have guessed as number 1, Jedinak and Gestede are surprises. Grealish down where he is too, would have expected Elphick and Gabby at the bottom!

It's not an exact science as it only cares if the player was on the pitch AT ANY POINT during that match, so their contribution towards the points might be up for debate, but I thought it might be interesting to some nevertheless, and others can use it as a stick no doubt Adama Traore obviously sticks out a bit. His sole appearance coming as 1st sub on 74th minute in game 2 v Rotherham when we were already 2 up. Bree, Hogan, Bjarnasson and Hourihane out!

Looking a little more closely at Gardner. He has only lasted 90 minutes in 5 of his 13 starts, getting subbed off 8 times and his other 4 apps were coming off the bench. In his 8 matches being replaced, he also tends to be the first person subbed in the match (4 firsts, 3 seconds & once as third sub). His 5 full matches from 13 represents the worst percentage of any player with more than 3 total apps. EDIT : Boring trivia. Kozak is the only Villa player this season to have been subbed on and off in the same match (@Derby) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 At the rate we're going it will be more a push for mid - table mediocrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted February 10, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 10, 2017 Any push for the playoffs now requires help from others. IOW playoff teams dropping points. Which means as unsavoury as it is, tonight's game needs to, eh, how shall I put this, not go the way of the home side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Geez Sheffield Wednesday are lucky. One shot on target last week and it was a deflected shot and they win. Today Birmingham hit the post twice. If that was Villa probably goes in. Edited February 10, 2017 by KSV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted February 10, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 10, 2017 What a horrible game to have to watch! If the best outcome is for Small heath to win Ill skip it and wait for the scores! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junxs Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 As it stands we are 16 points from the playoffs, unless blues can salvage something. That would mean catching a point up every gameweek.. (and we're bottom of the form guide) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted February 10, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 10, 2017 16pts away with 17 games left. I'm beginning to think we mightn't make the playoffs ... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 So Bloose lose no shock there then. They do us and themselves no favours but they were always going to lose there. We go again nothing has changed our chances of promotion and of ending the season above Small Heath remain unchanged but we all know which is the more realistic target.

sne Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Never really was any push for the play offs to begin with. Just a short period of OK results followed by us reverting to form. Pathetic season is pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 The di matteo saga ruined us really. I think next season we won't be favourites thereforestation hopefully the pressure factor won't be as intense. Play offs are not happening Like I said we should be aiming for a top.10 finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrytini Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Play offs ? Our form in the last 11 games means relegation is a distinct possibility. The play offs are cloud cuckoo land now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberman Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 It is slightly shocking to look at the table and see that even if we win games we are barely going to move up places now. Shambolic season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
