  • Ru I'm torn, on the one hand, I'd like you and my Villa supporting friends to do well, and not be constantly caught in the relegation mire. But I really really want Sherwood to fail! There's just something about him..

    Sorry.

  • Well at this rate it's not going to be long. Lose tomorrow and there's going to be a real call for his head. Despite the loss of Benteke and Delph there was a lot of excitement about the mass of summer signings - there are some exciting talents in there. But..an awful, Moyesian run of injuries mean we haven't fielded our best side yet.

    Gestede and Ayew look like pretty poor buys - we were never going to replace Benteke like for like, but they don't look up to Premier League level.
    Still persisting with Gabby up front is a nightmare.
    Substitutions are insane - leading 2-0 bring on a forward, losing 0-1 bring on a defender.
    Defence is still leaky, midfield looks lightweight, attack just looks non-existent.

    We arguably should have got more out of the first few games, but most worryingly performances seem to be getting worse. There's no fight which should be the one thing Tim does well.

    Add to all that, everyone we should be competing with in mid-table is getting results and we are already adrift as a bottom 4. Last season there were 8-10 down in the basement to fight it out. Football is shit. Particularly Villa's football.
