As flat as I am after that ‘performance’ we do usually turn up at Villa Park and we still have 6 home games left. McGinn and Davis to return will help a lot. Ah Davis....the man, the myth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This, sorry to say it but we just aren't good enough. Even Ming's looked poor today. Nakamba and Douglas are just hopeless, neither of them have a clue what there roles are. How many times did two of our players challenge for the same ball or leave it for someone else and allow the opposition to close the ball down? We need to play more.midfielders to compensate for our lack of quality, Smith cant continue to leave us so exposed in the middle . Its time to build for next year in the championship, Only Grealish is good enough at this level, the rest are just out of their depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a striker that's scored 3 career goals in about 50 appearances, and he seems to become better the more injured he is. Take him out for the season, and some Villa fans will think he deserved the Ballon **** d'Or. He's shown absolutely nothing to suggest he can cut it in the Premier League.

useless Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Ignoring his goal stats I think outside of Grealish McGinn and maybe Samatta, Davis is probably our best all round player, would probably offer more than any of the others given a run in the team. He's a very good player, when fit I'd be looking at a way to fit him in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Not feeling good having to rely on Man Utd for some help... Probably the most inconsistent team in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply haven't scored enough on the road in winnable fixtures. Failed to score at Palace, Sheffield United, Watford and Southampton and only once at likes of Bournemouth. All fixtures we could've got at least a draw from although we were obviously screwed over in that Palace game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did say ‘McGinn and Davis’ will help. I’m not saying Davis is going to come back and save us but if he gets and stays fit (massive IF), he can actually hold the ball up and maybe it doesn’t keep coming back allowing the opposition to have 25 shots on our goal. Someone who can hold the ball up and I don’t see anyway else in the squad with that ability, will help our defence as much as our attack. Our midfield isn’t good enough to keep the ball without a wall up front to play off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had to get something. Sadly i have to agree, i had today down as a must win...obviously was going to be tough as 99% of Premier League games are, aside from the odd rare one when a team you're playing doesn't turn up like Newcastle (H) & like when we didn't today & countless other times this season. Unfortunately we are that team who fails to turn up as often as not hence the incoming relegation. I can't see us getting more than one win & a couple of draws from those home games at best as almost every team we are playing has something to play for... Either Top 4 or in Palace's case possibly a relegation scrap. As for the away games well we just don't turn up do we, so may as well forget those now too. I fear we'll be lucky to scrape 32 points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester- zero points as they'll want revenge for the cup. Liverpool- haha. Newcastle- Got a feeling we'll win this but could easily go same way as Bournemouth and today as they're hard to break down. Everton- Used to get results at Goodison but poor recent record there and they're much improved under Ancelotti. Could be playing for europe. West Ham- Final day shoot out. Anything could happen I guess. We're more likely to pick up points at home realistically Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 So if Watford or West Ham get anything at all from their matches this weekend we will slip into the bottom 3 and it is hard to see us getting out. Just have to keep our fingers crossed that Liverpool and Man U do their bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atletico winning will probably focus Liverpool's minds and they'll be seriously pissed off after it and will take it out on the Hammers......
