Match Thread | Aston Villa vs. Man City (21/12/24)

Of course it is. He doesn't change his play for anyone and that brings success, but success doesn't happen every season. If he had changed our tactics in previous seasons because we looked poor we wouldn't have won. The machine is broken but some on this sub would have us get a sledgehammer out to fix it.

He didnt have to change before tho did he? He was winning? Why would he change it then?

Now we are in a shit state of affairs and hes not changing, there is no plan B. His stubbornness is now badly hurting us.

How can you not see it?

Do we even do training anymore?

The coaching staff are getting off lightly - a week to prepare for this game and they serve up this crap

Everyone bar Rodri, Dias, Haaland and Foden should be sold at this rate

You're keeping Foden?

2-0 down and shuffling around is pathetic

Apparently Villa have been playing poorly. We have turned them into prime Barcelona. This is nuts.

Everton and Leicester next. It’s going to get worse.

Villa is a better team currently. That's just the reality

The reality is almost every single team in this league is better than us now.

 

[blue whippet]

Ortega gets 7/10
Everybody else inc pep get a 1/10

Jack is playing well.

I wonder if there’s a point this lot try to salvage some self respect and actually try?

Our dominance was always going to end but we are a shadow of what we were.

I can’t believe what I am watching and the way we are so easily knocked off the ball and bullied not to mention out skilled is nothing short of disgraceful…..but not a surprise looking at the team selection.
We are so easy to play against.

I’m not calling for Pep to go.. but some of this sits with him.

How have we got to here with 11 of the squad near to 30 or over.
