We have no midfield. Nothing. There’s a defensive line of sorts. Then Nothing for 25 yards. You can moan about the deflections but If we are letting players like Grealish and Barkley tee up shots, we are asking for trouble.

Keita isn't a worker, we then went 424 before Fabinho was moved to CB. Non-existent midfield today.

Hush now mate, I can see your upset, but theyve had 8 shots and six have gone in. Just one of those games.

Villa will talk about this in 10 years time, we will have forgotten about it in a month.

Its an aberration, nothing more nothing less
 
I was going to defend Adrian after the first but deleted my comment before posting, instead opting to wait and see how the game panned out. Glad I did, he's been our second worst player behind Gomez. Not that anyone else is that far ahead of them!

Although it is a bit of a freak scoreline, we are going to have problems playing a high line with Adrian in goal. He just isn't a sweeper keeper.
 
Pathetic defensive line. You’d hoe players would be intelligent enough to realise if you get done 10 times by the same thing, maybe change it mid way through the game yeah?

just no common sense. Villa have worked on running from deep and we’ve no answer to it.

When he started last season, he wasn't attempting to be a sweeper. We seem to accept he could not do it, he booted everything. Why are we now expecting him to play?
