How many times can he be furious at really poor performances without looking at himself?

No system works if the players don't do their jobs and get the basics right.

From minute 1 in this game we were passing the ball to the opposition, leaving massive holes, not marking on set pieces, failing to track back, etc.

He can't kick the balls for them, can't physically yank them closer to the man they should be marking, can't run them (coughCashcough) like hell back into position when they get caught out of it.

He can coach them and instruct them, if they're willing to listen and do what they're told. This performance was 11 players not doing their jobs, and he'll have every right to be angry about that.

We’ve also absolutely battered Man City, Brighton and West Ham at home (as well as beating Arsenal) and have beaten Chelsea and Spurs away.

Plus had a club record winning home run.

If you can’t get behind that, I have no clue.

Which is why these performances are so hard to take. How can we do that and look like a really top team then look like an utter turd of a team like we do tonight?

Villa is such a lovely club to support. Even in a great season like this which up to now it has been, we still get made to look an absolute shite team by getting battered by Newcastle x 2, Liverpool and Chelsea. Only Liverpool is acceptable out of those teams, Newcastle doing the double over us is embarrassing and getting hammered at home by this mediocre Chelsea team is even worse. Can we not just go through a season where we generally look capable every game, why do we have to have these awful performances even in a good season. 
 

It’s just symptomatic of being a Villa fan I suppose. Why we’ll never be one of the big boys.

You do realise if we didn’t have the odd awful game we would be the best team in the world right?
