Hutton getting into a good position and doing nothing as usual! Least he's having a go mind. Come on boys.
-
He does use his right foot a lot when dribbling though.
-
Richards isn't great at RB at all. Yes he's a powerful runner but has no composure on the ball in attacking areas.
-
“We realise there is concern amongst our supporters,” Krulak told The Sun. “I see that on their message boards and I see that on social media as well."
-
There's not enough quality in the final third as Tim is leaving out our best player(s). The striker position is going to be an issue all season though, unless we get Austin in January.

Its unlikely, but I'm just saying I don't think its at the point where there is no way back for him. He certainly hasn't burned his bridges - he's made some strange calls, people are seriously questioning him, but he's not overseen embarrassing collapses in individual games.
What about Leicester away?

Something happened to him yesterday because there were at least three occasions in the second half when he had loads of space to overlap in to and he didn't go. He held back and received a nothing ball.
We'd switched to a back four then so maybe he was told not to bomb on. Maybe he wanted to but was worried about leaving the space in behind that has led to goals previously. Either way, he needs to have the confidence to run past people, especially when there's easy space to run in to.
And there was a moment in the last fifteen minutes when Grealish had the ball twenty yards infield and was imploring him to bomb on so he could play a ball in.
In the end Grealish played the ball there anyway to force Amavi to run on to it - he belatedly chased it and nearly got to it but it went out of play. Before any of that had happened, Jack had already shouted "F*** off" and turned his back on it - he was clearly furious.
Now that begs two questions.
1.) Is Amavi being instructed not to make runs to the byline, even when other players think the space is available?
2.) Does our 20 year old playmaker know more about the game than his manager?
I think we've got this very talented footballer confused and tied up in knots of thinking about what he should be doing rather than just expressing his ability - by all means make sure he's doing everything right tactically in his own half, but let him play once he's in the final third surely?
He looks really, really frustrated to me.
Someone recalls that differently in the Grealish thread :D

Were ruining this guy's career
Shame
Not ruining ruining his career in the slightest. He's a good player with huge potential and he's showing that.
He cost us a point against Palace and you could say the goal VS Albion was down to his error as well. So there's a lot of room for improvement still.

I remember after Sherwood got sacked by Spurs he was doing some punditry on ITV4 on the Europa League. He came across utterly clueless with his opinions on certain players etc. I put that to the back of my mind after what he did end of last season but now it's more in my mind than ever!

Would anyone take Pearson?
-
What's this corner about? I didn't see it
Think Iago Aspas for Liverpool.
Was one min left he played it along the ground to a Stoke player who started a counter.
-
Hard to have a go at him for that corner when he was the only player who gave us any sort of hope
-
What an absolutely terrible first half! Change it Tim before it's too late
-
Why on earth would you ever put a Villa defender in your fantasy team in this day and age?
I've got the assist machine Amavi in mine

Adama is an injury doubt.

"If we came here today,

To the beat of Locked Away by R City.

People really are only as good as their last game or two on here aren't they?
Sinclair has been crap the past 2 games but one of our best players for the first few games of the season.
Don't agree, he's just anonymous in every game he plays. Doesn't try and take his man on, just puts in extremely average performances.

Got a feeling we will see
Guzan,Bacuna,Richards,Lescott,Amavi,Westwood,Gana,Sanchez,Agbonlahor,Sinclair,Gestede
subs:Bunn,Clark,Hutton,Veretout,Grealish,Traore,Gil
If Agbonlahor and Sinclair both start...oh my days...
-
I don't quite understand the people who say, 'I'm going, so we will lose. Whenever I go, we lose'.
If anyone ever goes, we lose.
We lose all the time.
Haha...
My last few games have been...
Villa 0-1 Man City (2013)
Villa 0-2 West Ham (2014)
Villa 1-4 Stoke City (2014)
Villa 0-1 Swansea (2015)
Villa 0-1 Burnley (2015)
Villa 2-2 Sunderland (2015)
Liverpool 3-2 Villa (2015)
Played 7. Won 0, drawn 1, lost 6. Scored 5, conceded 14.

Bacuna

Traore
drop grealish for traore
Not sure that would work. Don't see Traore as the cutting inside type (if he was to play on the left) and if we swapped Gil to the left, don't think he has the pace to go on the outside regularly.

A Championship player.Stick with him, and that's where we'll be.
Who has never played in the Championship......
He doesn't need to have, to be that standard of player.

Guzan a few years back and for a long time was one of our best players. Great reflexes, good on crosses and I always felt assured when he was in goal. He always brought confidence to the back line.
Recently though it's the opposite because of his kicking. He's so awkward on the ball it's unreal. So annoyed how him and the statue Lescott cost us today, but you can't forget all the good Guzan has done for us.
