What do you mean by then? He's done for now. This squad have not played for him since Leeds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Seriously thanking our lucky stars we have 45 points because we look like a spent force without Grealish and Tuanzebe. It’s not getting any better is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Not the man to take this club forwards. No identity, no plan and no tactics. Just awful. Wes and Saf need to get rid in the summer, we look worse every week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackbauer24 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 No getting away from the fact that the performances have been nothing short of disgraceful. Not even the results, in fact they probably flatter us, but the lack of effort, organisation and plan are beyond unacceptable. He's had a window, he didn't address real issue and Hause by has looked appalling so far. Carroll is not the missing link from what I've read on here and all Smith has done is kill our attacking abilities in favour of losing slightly less often. This number of draws in this league is embarrassing. It's only when we throw caution to the wind we actually play and we did that when he first started. Ah well, at least when he gets sacked he can't argue it was because we didn't warm to him in the beginning! We're worse now than under Bruce and that is damning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 What were you actually expecting from a man that's achieved nothing more than mid table in his managerial career? You get what you pay for. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdabush Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 We get worse every week. For all the talk of playing attractive, attacking football, I haven’t seen any since before Christmas. I don’t like constantly changing managers and I want to give him time but I just can’t see it getting any better when we carry on playing with no obvious style of play.

Isn't that what this was supposed to be. I'm hoping he can turn it around. All that needs to happen is going back to his first day at the club. Play slower progressive football regardless of the whingeing fans. Switching to pumping it up the pitch is a losing tactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) I must have imagined us playing some of the best football i've ever seen at the club when Grealish wasn't injured and Dean first took over. I guess it must just be a co-incidence that it all started to all go downhill after the baggies game eh..... Imagine a gold nugget in a a steaming pile of shit, Grealish being the nugget take that away and what's left? The team that's churning out results like this.

Smith needs to improve, it's not all about 2 players being out. It's not an excuse. Out of the starting line ups tonight, I'd have picked majority Brentford players. Konsa, Barbet, Canos, Mokotjo, Sawyers and Watkins for sure - probably Odubajo too and there isn't too much in Maupay (league top scorer, looked lively throughout) and Abraham. I have no idea why you'd have more of that Villa side in a mixed eleven. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
