The Mighty Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur Match Thread

[Thomas Holte]

The players have given up all over pitch right to the manager sat in the dugout who set the whole tone of the game with his negative line/up showing far too much respect to them particularly when we are the home team.

Even his fucking subs were negative.

I dont buy that we are suddenly crap.

It is a combination of bad system, 2 bad mistakes, and a red card. It's a terrible day at the office.

We said this around Christmas when we had that dip vs Sheff Utd etc

We said it was a strange line up before the game and it proved to be the case.

Going defensive against these was playing straight into their hands.

Playing 5 at home against your level rivals is fucking insane. It's basically admitting to being the beta male.

And on top of watching this capitulation, I have to listen to Don Fucking Goodman and his negative crap.

It was fucking pathetic from Unai and even more pathetic that he didn't change it until we were 2 down.

 

[Stephen Jay Hawkings]

Imagine the biggest game of the season so far against a direct rival at home, and you get walloped 4-0.

Just fuck off Villa.

 

[colavfc]

Although we all love Emery. This was all down to him. Sorry boys. Emery is at fault here.

 

[ironside]

Heart of the midfield ripped out. Any chance of Buendia getting up to speed soon?

 

[Villan62]

This thrashing has been on the cards for weeks.

That's on Emery today, absolutely piss poor tactics, he sets us up like he's scared of losing instead going for a win, which will always catch you out.

 

[Stephen Jay Hawkings]

Great preparation for another big game Thursday which no doubt will be another big stinking Villa disaster.

 

[Fulford]

What the fuck was Monchi doing in January.

Correct, he's as poor as he's good sometimes.

 

[Gillette]

We were awful at Ajax too....there I said it.

 

[Platypus]

Oh.

It’s not why we lost tho.

The goal didn’t come from inviting pressure. We over committed and they scored on the break. Second goal was a disaster from Konsa and the chefs kiss was McGinn completely losing the head.

We were very comfortable first half. I saw plenty saying we were the better side.

I didn’t agree with the lineup but it’s not why we lost.

Glad I turned it off before Mcginn got sent off, shocking result. We are not ready for the Champions League

Woah you can’t criticise Emery on here.

 

[Villa1955]

And we still have to play, Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool ......

You don’t rush ACL injuries.
