Ratings & Reactions: FAC3: Villa v Stevenage

[CLARETANDBLUEFOXY]

I guess the only good thing that can come from this is if it wakes UE up to changes we badly need 

[Farlz]

It's on the players and the manager. 

The keep Cash deep and have Aug push was very strange and there was a clear tactical instruction to keep the ball at all costs and not put crosses in. That resulted in a massive shit attacking performance. A very shit day from everyone, no one gets excluded (except Sanson tbf).

I don't think we were great, but certainly didn't deserve to lose. 2 really poor moments cost us. Although the initial foul was outside the box, you can argue that it's playing the advantage. The foul in the box is a definite pen. Both could have been totally avoided if dendoncker hadn't forgetten how to play football.

The players collectively are at fault for the second for not closing down the short corner! then Olsen compounded it by not doing the basics right and covering the near post. 

Going out in the 3rd round 7 years on the trot is beyond embarrassing and must be some sort of record. 

We deserved to lose the second the team was chosen

That was completely unacceptable, an utter disgrace to not see that out. It was obvious that Stevenage would get a decent chance again yet we **** about with the ball unable to create another goal. What the hell Dendonker was thinking I’ll never know, and Leon Bailey, wow, his touch is abysmal. He wasted so many opportunities with shite dribbling/passing/crossing/shooting. He’s just not good enough I’m afraid. 
 

Fair play to Stevenage, they deserved that and will enjoy it big time. But Villa? I’m not happy.

Ollie and Emi were both poor coming on. It's easy to single a few lads out, but there's a distinct lack of form in several.

No point blaming Emery. Man's a proven, established winner unlike none of these wastes of space players bar Dibu. I'd rather **** them all off and give him a few years to build in his image tbh and if still bad then he can be blamed.

Nah he has to take his share of the blame for that.

Losing to a League Two side is completely unacceptable. 

[MackHaakon]

We lack leadership on the pitch. Without it the likes of Couthino, Bailey, Watkins and Buendia will drift in and out of utter shitness during a game, and feel sorry for themselves most of the time. We have too many mentally fragile individuals who are mostly there for themselves.

Coventry “ We are the butt of all jokes this weekend “

Villa “ Hold my drink “

Kaden young would have done a better job. 

Then we can't also have a go about playing a second string side. Like it or not, and I'm liking it less by the day, Bailey is our only senior in that position.

Gud ebening.....I have come here to win a cup....but not this year has I've f****d up twice by playing shit teams.... especially the team today

this post is absolutely uncalled for. completely embarrassing post. **** off with this drivel 

[HongKongVillan]

Deserved, the team thought this was a walk over and certainly wasnt. I like deondonker thought he is ok so far this season,but my word he deserves a few slaps on face

[briny_ear]

Not really sure what to say. 

A real shocker both from the team and the manager.

All I can assume is the management didn’t really want a cup run this year.

if so, we got what we wished for.

I am 36 years old and this is, quite literally, the most embarrassing moment of my Villa supporting life. I don’t even remember being this humiliated when we got relegated. 

What about the time when you told all your glory hunting mates that no chance is Grealish going to City because he’s Mr Aston Villa.

Or the time Lescott pocket dialled a photo of his car to the whole internet.

Or when we signed all the “best” strikers in the Championship and one of them couldn’t climb over his garden fence.

Villa players routinely take the piss out of the club, and have done for years.

VILLA TILL I DIE 

[EvilChameleon]

Getting upset happens, but like this? Oh no baby...

[holteend1982]

Can't blame emery at all, the team was good enough to win and was heading that way until dendonker decided to make some crazy decision. Would have loved a cup run and I'm sure emery would have too.

Pathetic response, casual racism even. Was nearly impossible for anything to be more disappointing than the result, yet this post has topped it

Martinez in goal and they don't score 2.

Mings and Konsa at the back they don't get a sniff.

We still had more than enough to beat them. That's just a fact. However, that doesn't mean you can take things for granted like we did.

[stewiek2]

Trott around playing tippy tappy between central midfield and back four.

Play ball to Bailey, who cuts in and blazes over.

Play ball to Coutinho, who cuts in and blazes over.

Rinse. Repeat.

Then why do we play our second string?

We were playing a league 2 side. The team we put out had much better players than the team we faced.
