Obviously Chelsea is a very difficult fixture but losing 6-0 at home is just unacceptable. I'm also aware we've had a difficult start in general playing Arsenal and Man Utd too, but I have high standards for Aston Villa football club so the idea that losing them is fine or whatever just doesn't wash with me. Especially when last season we proved we could compete with these teams. There's the Tottenham and Liverpool defeats too and we finished comfortably above both last season. So already 9 points down on last season after 5 games.
I have no idea if Ward should go or who we could get that's better so I won't pretend I do. We have some kinder fixtures coming up now so you could argue Ward at least deserves those to try and turn things around but there's certainly a lot of pressure on to win them now.
