Tayls Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 We cannot get smashed at home by Wigan and expect to remain in this league. I'm sorry but, I have come to accept that we are going to be playing wolves and Birmingham next season. If we are not playing those teams, what a surprise it will be!

MCU Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Well played to Wigan and Martinez. Credit where credit is due. I said it in the match thread and I know he wasn't here for very long but Sean Maloney must be thinking what the **** has happened to this club.

AshVilla Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) We wont be relegated. There you are - remember me at the end of the season when the fainthearts have been proven wrong. 22% possession in the first 35 mins at home against WIGAN Can't really blame the "fainthearts" Edited December 29, 2012 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Conceded 15 in 3 Scored 15 in 20 Relegation looms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernova26 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) How the word removed are we not in the relegation zone? Most goals conceded (by far) least goals scored (by far). For me we are going down. These defeats shape your season and even if we do go on a little run as soon as we get tonked again (which will happen) our fragile confidence will be shot to pieces again. That's how it works folks. These 3 shocking defeats have relegated us already. These are the fahcts.

The_Lions_Roar Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Embarrassing. It worries me that we were being completely over run the the midfield yet we still had 3 playing cb! When we moved someone up, at at score I can't even bare to write, it was too late. If we don't change this formation we are gone. Did we even manage a shot on target all game? Woeful stuff, an all time low for me today seeing Wigan walk all over us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) We will lose: Guzan Vlaar Clark Ireland Benteke Bent N'Zogbia Westwood Dunne I don't think we'll lose Guzan, a) because I don't think anyone would put in a serious offer that would be better than what we can offer him, and b ) He just signed a new contract. I'd also like to think he might stay loyal to us after Lambert was the one who finally gave him a chance, but that's probably just wishful thinking. I also think Vlaar will stay, Clark too unless a really good offer came in for him but I can't see that happening based on his performances so far this season. I also think we'll keep Westwood. The rest I could see go though. I'm not going to put up a "how we would lineup in the Championship" teamsheet though. It's premature and a bit depressing.

Woeful stuff, an all time low for me today seeing Wigan walk all over us. We didn't have 3 CB playing. We had 1 CB + Lowton, a RB. + Herd, a 5'8" DM/Utility player. The only player who was 5'8" who has ever been awesome CB was Fabio Cannovaro. I don't think Herd is the next Fabio Cannovaro. He's putting in a big shift, and a lot of effort, but it's not his position. Benteke was 'marking' Ramis at the first corner of the match because he was the only Villa player with the height to match him. Baker/Vlaar are big misses through injury. We need to use the January transfer window to strengthen with experience in every position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 How the word removed are we not in the relegation zone? That's the only comfort. Southamptton, Reading and QPR are still (just about) worse than us and as long as that continues we will just about scrape to survival. It's not going to be a comfy ride. though.

VillakevBromsgrove Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 It is not going to happen, PL has just stated any new recruits will come from the lower leagues as this is the funding he has been given. Sorry but RL has got to go he is killing the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were getting no where near the ball in midfield and it's obvious we should of switched to 442 then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Well we were told by some that the score line against Chelsea didn't matter, well we're behind Wigan on goal difference, so yes it **** did matter. A truly awful start to life under Lambert and there's no doubt the relegation battle is still on. We're relying on January to save our season. Which is a surprise when so many were telling me how great the summer was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danceoftheshamen Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 So if we go down.. what will Randy's solution be?..That we need to sell to streamline the club? .....AGAIN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 As bad as I've ever seen us play. I just wanted someone to show some heart. At one point at 3-0 bannan played a ball straight to a wigan player and got booed, he just shrugged his shoulders, no effort to win the ball back and that is what worries me the most, not one of them looked like they had any pride in themselves, let alone pride for the club or the fans.
