Aston Villa 0-2 West Ham (All Goals) 08… by ourmatch
Oh dear!
This, to me is quite simply a disastrous result.
In the predictions thread, I thought West Ham would stifle the midfield and we’d struggle to break them down.
That was certainly the case in the first half, where the truth is West Ham were the better side.
West Ham, a side that I’ve said on here, are very poor.
So how much does it hurt for me to say we never had a shot on goal in that half?
A lot. So much so that I’m not even going to mention it anymore.
Onto the second half then and straight away, it seemed like we were asleep.
Downing did well to beat Bertrand and it was all too easy for Nolan to score. Just slack.
And within a couple of minutes or so Delph was caught messing with the ball and Nolan scored again. Even slacker.
And then, on came Albrighton, who within 20 seconds had put in a cracking cross, which was better than anything we’d seen in the whole first half.
And the game turned on it’s head.
Benteke, who hadn’t got a sniff was now getting loads of headers, albeit he failed to hit the net and the side looked instantly revitalised.
Why Albrighton doesn’t start is beyond me.
In short, we battered West Ham, but they went a proper 5 at the back and you just knew we wouldn’t get two goals.
The truth is, I don’t really want to talk much about this game, as losing like we did has really got to me today.
I suppose you could say this is what you get when you have a young side, but I’m just glad I didn’t have to pay to watch it.
And where we were a so called safe in 10th, 5 points above relegation, we’re now 11th, 4 points above relegation.
Still think we’re comfortable?
Because I don’t.
Moan of the day?
Even Bertrand can’t take a legal throw-in.
Its a sorry sorry state of affairs. I knew theyd turn us over today.
How anyone is still in support of this so called “plan” is beyond me.
Im buying a flight back to uk plackards in hand for this fucking joke of a boardroom and staff. I hope we get relegated so all the folowers can see what we are. A second rate club. Vtid
That was fuckin shit , left as soon as the second goal went in , yet again pissed off that I have wasted my spare time watching yet another pathetic performance from lamberts wank side , if he gets a new 3 year contract Randy Lerner should be shot !
lets be realists, with the majority of our play this season and last we would normally be at the foot of the table, we are just fortunate there is some god awful teams in the premiership at the moment… We have an advent owner a woeful CEO and a Manager that doesn’t believe in quick fixes but in the last window loans 2 player for a quick fix…… utter rubbish !
The worrying part for me, is that reminded me very much of a championship game on West Ham’s part. Which is why I’ve said we’ll seriously struggle if we get relegated.
3 worse teams than us?
Well Palace and West Ham (the early candidates) don’t seem to be in that 3 atm.
I suspect this may be a lot closer than some of us think.
Lerner you have destroyed this club. The Villa PR machine and local Press have contributed to our demise. Lies lies and more lies. Fed up with continued biais reporting of Lerners spending BUT no mention the money is a loan which he gets interst from no mention of player sales no mention of TV money no mention of the fact we can’t compete with the likes of a Palace Hull etc. fed up with niave so called fans who year on year believe the spin especially this time of year when Lerners focus is on season ticket renewals. I don’t blame Lambert, yes he should go he is not good enough. But I do blame two things for our clubs demise 1, Lerner 2, Lerner supporters. Anyone supporting Lerner hold your head in shame you have allowed this to happen. I said earlier in the week that I hoped for relegation the reason this is necessary is to ensure no more excuses. The real state of the club will then be obvious. Lerner out. Lerner fans leave our club.
Agreed ted too many supporters are just happy with the dross served up every week. And the other person to blame is that mumbling fuckwit who picks the team. He should be sacked on the spot let alone given a new contract. Absolute joke of a regime
We aren’t naive fans. We know what’s going in. We don’t fall for lies or Villas PR stunts. We aren’t happy with the “dross” served up every week. We just choose not to mope about it like you negatives. Yes we are shite, from top to bottom, we can see that but choose to keep the faith. I don’t want championship footy so I’ll do my bit to help keep us up however ineffective.
Ill expect to see you outside VP tomorrow with your “OUT” signs doing your bit ye?
It’s apologists like you that are part responsible for this dross. All to willing to forgive and forget every game. Lamberk has won 3 in 13 and one of them was a fluke v city and WBA where form book goes out the window. The club is on its knees and people like you accepting the situation lets Lerner laugh at us and get away with it.
I would say it’s going to be a very long run in to the final game.our home form is clearly relegation material aswell as our inconsistency.we’re like a schizo team,which one will turn up on the day.finally don’t we miss vlaar?
blame the manager, let off the stay away owner
thats all
(there again some idiots believe the spin and bullshit)
Well well well what a surprise. A comment on the game after a defeat from the knob who, after we beat West Brom, clearly stated he weren’t commenting on games!! Low and behold as soon as we lose he makes an appearance. Prick.
Are you saying this isn’t the Managers fault?
never blamed the manager, who appoints him ? You can be short sighted and blame him … I will not
Just because Lerner appointed him dosnt mean lamberk is blameless. He still bought the players and picked the team. Admittedly on a shoestring which is of course Lerner’s fault
So sack him and ask who Lerner would appoint as the next cover ?
Pochetino wouldn’t be a bad choice
Lets not dwell on it, we’ll pick ourselves up and gob again on Tuesday.
Agree agree agree, he’s fucking useless of knowing the basics of the game, he must have played rugby most of his life, he don’t understand football.
let off the owner who picked the manager
IANROBO Who wanted Lamberk as manager as far as i am concerned he was not Lerner,s first choice it was those whom i fondly nicknamed The Lambert Lemmings who wanted him so Lerner gave them their man.So lets hear the LEMMINGS come out and defend him now.
It’s really annoying even this site WHY d sme so called fans focus on Lambert? Yes he needs to go but the cause is Lerner. Let me make it very simple for some, if Lambert is so bad and should go (which he should) why does Lerner not only keep him but apparently want to extend his contract. Lerner uses managers to deflect from him. Lambert is an embarrassment and a puppet BUT that suits Lerner. Lerner please go Lerner out.
Video added, but it’s back to front!!!!
Searching.
3 cheers for the Lamberk fan club. the sheep will be all out to defend their idol. Another home classic from the mumbling twat. It’s so predictable you can only laugh at this point and from what I’ve heard some morons still sing his name. AVFC is dead.
NO ones supporting Lambert read what’s written. Are you so much a Lerner supporter you can’t understand clear dialogue. Lambert is a poor manager and should GO. But the main cause of our decline is Letner and all his supporters. Lerner out
Is anyone surprised we lost and we were shit again. It’s happened pretty much every home game since Lambert took charge, simply awful manager and they want to reward him with an extension. Someone is clearly taking the piss and seeing how far they can take the joke.
Lambert on sky hold our nerve and we will be fine. Fuck of lamberk u useless mumbling prick
Yep he’s back to using we’ll be fine!!!
Proper video now, sorry about the ad.
We are shit without Vlaar, we should have signed another CB for cover. Baker and Clark are not good enough. This should have been a home win, we need to beat Cardiff and Norwich, we also need to get at least a draw from the Newcastle game.
We as a club are flat and uninspiring and we have been for sometime, I dont think there is any other way of describing it
Three year contract don’t make me laugh the bloke is a complete and utter clueless idiot….But we’re all singing off the same hymn sheet…What the fucking song Lambert?
At least Lambert has actually said where the blame lies this time;
http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/aston-villa-poor-defending-blame-6687596
His team !!!
Why the hell is Lambert getting a new contract?? Every other manager that is failing to get results is getting fired, and yet we give ours a new contract?? Who the fuck makes these decisions.
We are heading towards the bottom 3 at an alarming rate. Woeful performance again today. Apart from the 2 centre backs, that is Lamberts strongest team and it was still dreadful. No width, no movement, no penetration, no idea of how to play that system or even as a team. I guess it doesnt help that Lambert changes formation every week.
We are hard to watch and in many ways, I think we have gone backwards.
The blame lies with Lambert..If his team can’t defend..His Fault,,If his team can’t win at home..His fault…Etc Etc…ALL LAMBERTS FAULT!!!!
They are both incompetent but we are stuck with Lerner so lamberk must go now
of course … so then Lerner may appoint, lets say Lee Clark then ?
On a slightly different note, Maicon, the Brazilian kid has been killed in a car crash in Russia 🙁
Who ?
Maicon, really that’s a shame, decent player so I’m told.
