***Villa v City Official Match Thread***

[Outcast]

Pep can fuck off. Its not the players, Pep system is holding us back. Utter wank.

[zabbadabbado]

Another defeat because our genius Coach fucked about with a winning defence.

I am sick of his bizarre stupid fucking tactics and Coma inducing Football.

He really is killing us with his shit team selections and playing style.

Haaland is papering over the huge cracks.

[stevefromdonny]

6 minutes vs 13 minutes.
Best league in the world.

blatant and disgusting

I think if the ref played until we scored it would be Monday

but which week

[s1ty m]

No complaint from my part.
The game was lost because of a poor lineup, poor recruitment, a small squad, and shit tactics.
The well known recipe.

Saw it too many times to bother at some point.
Will most likely enjoy our games as soon as he fucks off. Win or lose.

Agreed.

The new coaches have made little difference, and the new recruits are pretty average. Clueless and toothless. We are a top 6 side, on a good day.

That's what killing me at the moment - my daughter prefers to watch the women's than the men's because Pep has us playing sideways, backwards, sideways, slow it right down and go backwards again - repeat. Absolutely mind numbing.

It's not working anymore, it was okay to watch when it was working but not it doesn't work at all and it's painful to watch.

[Dub City]

A performance even worse that that rancid jersey which took some doing.

Keeper apart none of them could complain if dropped next match.

[city72]

Spent fuck knows how much and we are the biggest one man team in the history of the game, bought so much utter gash it’s scary

[Sparklehorse]

I’m just losing the will to live when I watch that awful shite. There is no pace no desire no skill. I think Bobb has a lot to offer but is just not delivering which is very disappointing. It’s definitely time for Pep to go and to bring in someone stable, the arrogant cunt hasn’t realised that everyone and his brother has worked him out and he has nothing new left to contribute. It’s slow turgid fare and I’ve had enough of it. He tells us that he loves Rico and that Cherki is one of the most talented players he’s ever seen, why are they not of the fucking pitch from the start then. I will guarantee we will not beat Bournemouth next week and then any faint title aspirations some of us may have had will disappear in a cloud of smoke as Arsenal move 9 points clear of us and more disturbingly the rags glide above us. There is something seriously wrong with our approach and for a very long time now he hasn’t been able to sort it out, and I’m now sure that he never will. Thanks for the memories now fuck off and try again with some other mugs.

One nil away at pn form Villa is not a disaster.

[Mase]

One nil away at pn form Villa is not a disaster.

That team selection and performance was though. We have a decent team, give it our all and we're unlucky on lose - then fair enough

[Redna]

so villa goalie holds on to the ball for over 10 sec twice and we dont get a corner but brentford goalie holds on to it 10 sec and liverpool get a corner

It's called 'istree'

[carl_feedthegoat]

It is

[nottsblue]

One nil away at pn form Villa is not a disaster.

0 points is 0 points no matter how it's dressed up

Today was a fucking horrible performance. And the team XI was even more of a fuck up. Pep getting schooled tactically is now a commonplace occurance. We are still a top 4 PL side IMO but not one that will challenge for the title. We have become like Arsenal in the last years of Wenger

[Indianablue]

Deserved to lose for wearing that strip. In fact we were lucky not to have points deducted. Horrendous

[salford city]

Is it safe yet-just started at rhe end of this thread. Missed the game completely. Looks like i was the lucky one.

[Nigels Tackle]

bobb + savinho and are we playing in that rain kit??

all 3 pathetic
many others equally a shit
all on pep that one - fucking prick

Team totally wrong.

Reijnders ain't a DM
Bernardo cannot be allowed to start - his legs have gone
Bobb was absolutely awful
Josko terrible, kept giving the ball away
Stones kept telling our players to "slow it down" when we're one down
Foden nonexistent
Haaland missed our only decent chance

Thought Foden was the best player by a mile for us.
Agree on the rest

I’m just losing the will to live when I watch that awful shite.

That sums it up for me.
I will forever be grateful to the man, the best manager we ever had, who played some incredible football. Under him, we had objectively the best domination I've ever seen in football (our 4-0 vs Madrid). But he kills the living life out of me. And it is not the downfall that hurts me, I would back him up no matter what, it is the pure arrogance and defiance in making this squad after the treble, in his decisions to be smarter than the club, the fans, than everyone.

I've seen this in Brian Clough also, another one who redefined football, but ultimately that was his downfall also. His stubbornness and desire to change.

I didn't think Foden was very good. But then I'm struggling to find a better one. Maybe Nunes if he hadn't fallen on his arse again!
