2 big chances Ipswich missed in the first half were down to him being 5 yards behind the other defenders for the Clarke header and in no man’s land when Emi saved from Delap, don’t even get me started on the 2nd Delap goal. He’s simply not good enough for where we are at.

That's not on Carlos he shouldn't be playing correct. Then we hook our best CB to RB That's the issue problem has never been solved.

We came from a goal down to lead, and then through being lacklustre in the second - half we threw it away. Shoulda, coulda doesn't cut it at this level for me I'm afraid.

But most people in here have been fully ready to acknowledge our performance was poor? They're just pointing out that the refereeing also had an impact, because it did.

Sky sports are embarrassing finding reason as to why the 2nd yellow was not given, 4 tackles 1st half and a yellow the 1st one 2nd half was yellow and off, the 2nd one was a straight red, if it had been a Villa player the red would have been straight out, corrupt league, corrupt refs 

Honest, attwell isn't capable of being corrupt, he hasn't got the skill or the control that would be required 

He's just that **** useless

This - when you're playing a high line and one of the centre backs is keeping players onside it is suicide!

[Brumstopdogs]

On a positive we have some big players to come back in Mings, Kamara, McGinn and Cash.

Ipswich have now drawn 4 in a row so on recent form (and last season) are no pushovers particularly when we are not fully at it.

It's not a terrible point away from home, as Ipswich seem to be developing resilience. That said, it does feel a bit like 2 points dropped as we were ahead and in control. Locking the game down would have been a better option and we only have ourselves to blame for not winning. 

[maqroll]

To think we'd hit the big time when we signed Diego Carlos!

We'd be in League 1 right now if Gerrard wasn't sacked.

One of the dumbest and most disinterested defenders I've seen in a Villa shirt.

Reckon this will boost my chances of getting a Bologna ticket tomorrow?

[Villanbee]

Just a really poor display. So disappointed.

The right back issue is killing us. It's messing up two positions.

Onana needs to learn from McGinn how to be tenacious.

[maqroll]

It's a long drive back to B6. Hopefully they're getting an earful.

Surprised at people voting Rogers MOTM. Thought he was garbage personally. Only outfield players to come away with any sort of credit were Watkins and Tielemans.

To be fair he had a mixed game. Some good touches, but all of our advanced players misplace too many passes and make us vulnerable counter attacking sides.

Yep, for a "midfield destroyer", he can be quite passive.

[sidcow]

Wow. Wolves post match thread where we beat a local rival finished up with 9 pages. This is up to 11 pages already

[switters]

2nd half in particular really poor. Gave the ball away a bunch of times, resulting in quick breaks that got chances or corners. Do that enough and one of them was inevitably going to end in goal. It's not so much the high line itself, but sloppiness when playing with a high line is costly. Konsa definitely screwed us for the 2nd goal but others were guilty at other times.

Obviously abysmal refereeing to not give Morsy 2nd yellow from one of about three obvious 2nd yellow fouls he made - but that doesn't excuse under par performance. Hard to pick MOTM because no-one really shone today. Martinez had 2 v good saves, but maybe should have stopped one of the goals. Watkins good goal and caused problems, but we didn't ultimately have too  many efforts on goal. None of the subs really made notable impact.

Poor 2nd half but we move on. Last season we drew at home to Sheffield. Early days and we focus on Wednesday night. 

[Paul33]

Once again Emery costs us a win by playing Konsa at right back …. what is wrong with the guy ?!!!!

[AVFCDAN]

Onana isn’t luiz and philogene isn’t Diaby. Haven’t replaced either player really.

Kamara can’t come back soon enough.

[ROTTERDAM1982]

I don't know if they had the Bayern game on their mind, but really poor today, Apart from Martinez, not one player got more than a 6.

We are better when we move the ball quickly, we was far too slow on the ball today.

Ref didn't help though. Their 1st goal came from a free kick that wasn't a foul.

Konsa and Carlos poor on the 2nd.

1st game this season I think we really missed Kamara
