[Archived] Aston Villa Vs Blackburn Rovers

[RibbleValleyRover]

Our midfield is effin atrocious.

Apart from Hoilett and Olsson you could bin all the rest as far as i'm concerned. I'd fancy my chances to make some runs through this midfield.

[adopted scouser]

Nice one Robbo, knock him out

[sweet]

bbc has possesion stats as 70% to villa, thats even worst than under allardyce - what the hell is that all about? Wigan have 50-50 against united to put it in perspective.

[Rovers Gals]

sod off baker boy , rovers attack now

[thenodrog]

two good tackles two yellow cards! Heaven forbid we actually foul someone. Refs a homer.

We may as well play with 10 men when Keef is in the team, he just ambles around pointing and is mostly ignored by his team mates. Give the tea lady a chance in his place, I promise you she can't do any worse. Pedersen is very frustrating this afternoon also, so slow physically and mentally

That's not correct. Teamtalk (Sky) has 54/46 and stream said 57/43 a few minutes ago. Definitely not 70/30 based on watching the stream.

Is this game a tribute to Big Sam?

And Wigan are 1-0 down...

Is this game a tribute to Big Sam?

I think so! It's like he never left. If Kean is going to approach away games in the same way Sam did, then they need to start giving away the tickets for free, otherwise it's an insult to the poor souls that travel to watch this garbage.

Pederson is so bloody slow!!!!!!!

Sturridge has always been class. He should have chosen to go to a club at Bolton's level before making the jump to Chelsea. His greed has stunted his development.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Looking at the way we are playing I'm not sure even making changes in regards to subs would make much difference. No point putting on another striker when we are creating absolutely nothing.

Robbo keeping us in the game.

[jimw1988]

robinson!legend!

[adopted scouser]

Robbo saving our necks again

[sweet]

And Wigan are 1-0 down...

doing better than us then, we were 4-0 down at this point?

[Gogger]

This is a disgrace! How poor can a midfield be?

[adopted scouser]

Pedersen ARE YOU PLAYING FOR THEM ?

[RibbleValleyRover]

Pedersen almost cost us bigtime just then. Not the first time he has done that this season.

Grella booked now. Both Jones and Grella on yellows, we will be lucky to end the game with eleven on the pitch.

[BRFC1995]

This is a disgrace! How poor can a midfield be?

this poor is the benchmark

[Balwer]

doing better than us then, we were 4-0 down at this point?

Sure. But you were comparing our possession in this game to Wigan's possession in theirs. I think Wigan would trade the extra 20% possession to have not conceded the goal.

[jimw1988]

Turns out grella and jones are to slow for pires!

Get pederson off!hes havin a shocker today!givet left back!ollson wing!

[BPF]

Total joke in the middle. Embarrassing to watch.

[DE.]

Robinson 0-0 Villa at the moment.

My God we are awful. I don't even want to type about it really. We'll be lucky to escape from this with a 0-0.

[bennyboyt11]

Pederson awful, Robbo is playing fantastically thank god. Perhaps due to Capello being in the crowd and wanting to prove a point... Needs a serious half time talk to get us in contention, the way we're playing is definitely going to end in a loss.
