United and Tottenham are both so bad 18:22 - Feb 16 with 4990 viewsGarv

I'll almost be disappointed with less than 4 points from the next two games.

United just awful full stop and Tottenham almost unwilling to put the game to bed, how many break aways and half chances did they want?

With good organization, togetherness, a bit of quality and a bit of luck, we can get a win or two against them.

Ah yeah, that I agree with ( Result )

I just want it nice and simple

6 home games, win those, 3 draws away, nice and comfortable. lol





I hadn't really given it a second thought, But I can't believe how bad our home form has been this season.


For me, we can beat Spurs, Wolves, Brentford, westham at home

I’d guess 32/33 keeps a team up this year.

So 15/16 points needed from 13 games (I think we have left)

7 points at home, 10 away.


It's the goals scored that shocked me more when I saw it this morning.

Aren't some seeing a poorer performance than what it was v Southampton?

Broady should have had a hattrick, we had our own waves of attacks but simply chose the wrong passing options at times and they did end up winning, but i've seen worse performances than what we gave v Southampton.


Considering Southampton's clear lack of quality I wouldn't say the performance was good either.

I disagree, compare the two fixtures or any of ours over the same side in the past 2 seasons and it was our best effort by far, it was final balls and finishing which let us down imo, Julio, Broadhead, Delap all should have scored. Delap passes to Philogene and it's 2-1 town etc for example.

Result wise definitely sucked, but performance wise, it was absolutely fine for me besides the fact we just didn't convert.

Could it have been better, of course, but I don't think it was 'poor' or bad etc.

I would hope it would be better compared to last season considering the amount of money spent on the squad in the interim. Yes, it was an improvement on the home game in 23/24, which is only really remembered for Sarmiento's winner, and probably better than the away game too (though I'd argue we performed better at St Mary's in 23/24 than we did this season), but that's not to say the performance was enough.

Son hobbled off with an injury and is already a doubt for Saturday. As is Kevin Danso.

They are certainly a young team that's been put through the ringer. If we can match/better their intensity, I think we've got a fair shout.

Ange suggested all should be fine for Ipswich.

I guess we just need to beat what's in front of us now. We have to put a run together.

That is the plus point really, the expenditure has enabled us to at least catch up with the likes of southampton and leicester. It might not be able to help us with the rest of the league, but if it's helped us catch up in that respect then it's a good thing going into next season.

The performance should have been enough to win the game. We created plenty of chances that we didn't take and limited them to not much. With a competent keeper, we'd have won the game.

It does make me wonder how many more points we'd have on the board if Palmer arrived in August rather than Muric.

Enough to be outside the relegation zone, possibly with a bit of a buffer. For balance, Muric has also made some great saves at times (Brighton away being an obvious example) but the number of big errors directly leading to goals has been hugely costly. We probably would have a very impressive win against Bournemouth on our record if we had a different keeper.

I’m absolutely convinced we’d be a good 5/6 points head of where we currently are.

13 games 1 win 4 draws 8 defeats 9 goals scored 6 opposition goalies got clean sheets. Unprecedentedly bad. For a season ticket holder with very low expectations to start with, who doesn't see away games, it's been a bit disappointing to watch.

There was a post on here the other day about how arrogant Villa have become since getting Champions League - think we could do with looking a bit closer to home


It was tongue in cheek. If we get 4 points I'll be bouncing off the walls, if we get three points I'll still be bouncing off the walls. If we get two points I'll still be happy.

It was more a criticism of United and Spurs this season.

Spurs didn’t even have to be at their best to beat us comfortably, which is what I had expected. The same with Manchester United tomorrow.

They look bad because they were playing each other or other established Prem teams of similar quality thus cancelling each other out. When we face them it is a different story. Expect more of the huff and puff with no goals then they score with every shot they have at our goal. We'd make the weakest ManUre team in ages look like prime Barca.

Prove me wrong please!
