With the performance they put in they should have lost, in agreement not arrogant from what I saw.
Again well over paid. Wasted budget.

Come on Amanda ffs you must know by now on the ‘post match thread’ you can’t have a say on how you saw it ��
I don’t agree Villa were crap but definitely average and we made them look a top team . Spot on ‘overpaid’
Even though I wasn’t expecting a win I thought we could have and should maybe at least got a point, again it’s down to not finishing which needs sorting out ASAP
Manning being first to be subbed was spot on, not his game at all
Vassell was my MOTM

Listened to radio commentary and watched second half on tv in the Stag. We played ok, but never looked dangerous near Villa's goal. Better performance than two years ago under Stubbsy (and match stats show that), but Villa were not really put under much pressure. Hard to see where our goals will come from in open play. Should have signed a proper goalscorer over the summer. The forwards/wingers that we have are really "support players" and although hard working, are unlikely to score very often at this level. We are going to need somebody who can get into double figures if we are going to stay up.
Always disappointing to lose, but some of the comments - really? Villa were one game away from the Premiership last season, and have the quality we can only dream about. When you looked at the fixtures at the start of the season, surely this wasn't one where points looked likely. I'm not clever enough to know whether Villa played badly or we made them look average, but we were in the game for the bulk of it. It wasn't pretty to watch, but I think that's what we have to do away on limited resources.
Connor Hourihane is most definitely on 30k a week , mentiond in a fans forum by the CEO at my club .
James Bree who also joined Villa from us is on 19k a week .
Third consecutive season in the championship for Villa this time so it just goes to show it ain't always guaranteed to succeed by any means .
They were bailed out in the summer I believe so clearly lessons don't appear to be learnt in the west midlands .
Too big to financially fail apparently according to some of their fans I once read , now then where I have heard that before over the last 10 years .
Agree Lasterman we were well in the game yesterday and had as many chances as them as near as dammit the difference was they put their chances away we didn't. Defensively it doesn't sound as though we did too much wrong so I don't think we should tinker with that side of things what we need to work on is taking our chances and getting our midfield up quicker to support the forward. We have also played 4 of the top 7 away so far so we couldn't really expect much. It is what we do against the bottom sides away that matters because they will be all 6 pointers. Warney also needs to work on the psychology away from home. He has got us believing we can take on the big boys at home but not away yet. It could be if we can take one big named scalp away it might go some way to boosting confidence and getting on some sort of run away from home.
At end of day that’s what it came down to Roly, them putting them away where we didn’t .
It needs sorting
