Watford v Aston Villa Official Match Thread - Sat 14th - 3pm

[JNB90]

Young keeping Sarr quieter this half. He looks more comfortable at LB himself.

 

[Bonker]

Bailey coming on, for awol ghazi hopefully.

 

[Tom Cat]

Come on Bailey, show us what you are all about

 

[JNB90]

Bailey for AEG. Might aswell.

Ghazi is sadly inconsistent and this is one of his clueless 3/10 performances

 

[Fulford]

You called him a clueless manager, I provided evidence he’s not.

I stand by my behave

Tell me what he's done apart from take the most expensive Championship team into the PL by the skin of it's teeth. Brentford did better without him.

He's won fuck all and mark my words he never will.

 

[Lord Ron Saunders]

that change is desperation

 

[Pangloss]

This prick just sitting on his arse in the centre of the field, fuck off.

 

[Villa Onion bag]

I didn't expect us to do well in this one and my pre game comments show that, but I cannot accept us looking so unfit, Watford, newly promoted look fitter, faster and stronger than us all over the pitch. Unacceptable.

I agree, and yes, I am disappointed.

 

[antvillan]

We lost virtually every game when he was out. We went from top 4 to clinging on to 11th place. The bloke gives me no confidence at all. If the owners want to make the CL they need to recruit a much better manager and one who can attract CL standard players.

Until we get into Europe we won’t attract those players. Smith or not (it’s a fair argument but we’re not there yet)

Evidence? Your honour may I approach the bench…..bollocks.

 

[Pride of Lions]

I thought the idea was to have shots on target.... that way we might score a fucking goal............ so far, after almost an hour, we haven't had one on target.

The good news is, we've had most possession...............

 

[The Fear]

Lets not row between ourselves, some like Smith, some don't, same as all managers.

COME ON VILLA.

 

[JNB90]

We're playing like 2nd half of the season Ross Barkely. Devoid of confidence and ideas.

Don't panic yet though guys. Long way to go.

 

[Fulford]

Until we get into Europe we won’t attract those players. Smith or not (it’s a fair argument but we’re not there yet)

Which means we'll never attract them at this rate. Top managers attract top players.

 

[Holte139]

Buendia just had 4 or 5 players around him then, what can he do?

Ramsey's looked good since he came on.

 

[Dumble]

We really need a midfield boss get it sorted Villa

 

[Bikini Inspector]

I just don't understand the Ramsey substitution Smith does all of the time. Ramsey has no pace etc he is not an impact player. Either start him or don't waste a sub on him.

 

[Pangloss]

We really need a midfield boss get it sorted Villa

We're not getting into Europe with players like John McGinn in midfield.

 

[antvillan]

Evidence? Your honour may I approach the bench…..bollocks.

Lol!

If our progress isn’t enough to persuade you, then nothing I say will.

One way or the other we both want Villa to do well. Today has been shocking tbf, but I’m confident we’ll find our groove in the games to come.

 

[JNB90]

Absolutely.... they've won every single duel. Every single 50/50. Nipped the ball from under us much quicker.
