All you’ve done is whinge we’ve dominated the ball and had way more chances. They’ve also defended well. I wasn’t looking for an example btw. Another overreacting worrier for the ignore list toodles.

Whinge? We've had two shots from outside of the box whilst they've let us have the ball. That's it. Wake up mate we can do much better than this.

We’ve played into Burnley’s hand now it’s going to be harder to break them down they’ll continue to park the bus

Indeed 

It's hard enough to get through them as it is.

Now they'll just sit in goal.

We need to be going all out attack at speed IMO now

The football has been good, there's just nothing up top to worry Burnley. Watkins doesn't have anything in his locker in these type of games. A low block finds him out.  Chukwuemeka wants the game at half speed.

Disagree

He's playing up top alone vs a back 3, what do you want him to do? But if the defence is occupied by Watkins the midfield has to push up further in to the space, our best chance will be from JJ chuk and Buendia, maybe even mcginn going right up the pitch and playing between their lines 

That said the header was a decent chance that he should do better with

Villa have been okay but had trouble creating real chances.

Stupid challenge from Buendia - he’s a risk taker and that’s why he should play way up the pitch, far away from Villa’s goal.

Yes, exactly. He should not be allowed in our own penalty area. Ever.

I must be watching a different game to some on here.

We have done ok. Emi lost his head for a second which is a shame as he is playing well.

Chuck has been quiet so suspect he will get 10 minutes and then be off.

Agreed- I don’t normally look in on match day threads but the negativity is completely over the top. We’ve largely dominated but are a goal down due to a silly mistake

It's not gonna happen mate. Save yourself. It's the hope that guts you.

Completely agree.

"Villa playing well until that moment, Pope playing well..." 5Live.

Always best to get an appraisal of how things are going elsewhere.

This is accurate.  Burnley barely seen the ball. We could have scored, although arguably would have been a 0.02xg worldie.

Then Buendia being a bit kamikaze in the penalty box,  probably trying to hard as a result of having to unjustifiably prove his worth, cost us.

I expect we'll score. Burnley's shape has been so defensive, I don't see it changing this half so we will get a chance or two.

Watkins been terrible though,  should be off within 10 mins.

We need two strikers on to get through that back three. Ings and Phil on and we can win this no problem 

Any bet takes on how long it takes Gerrard to put Ings on?

Posted it earlier, but there was literally "is this a library" from Burnley fans that you could clearly here in the first 10-15 minutes, hard to believe how dead it is

Is there a reason a huge chunk of stands is completely empty?
