Aston Villa - Nottingham Forest
Just not at it tonight. Injuries and pressure will do this. I think we might concede a few more at this rate. It feels like the heads are dropping

You have to wonder when we will be in a match like this again.

We have 5 our our first 11 injured; Sangare, Aina, CHO, Murillo and MGW. And then Savona out too, Netz and Taiwo not available. And Ndoye been out. I don’t think you can be too harsh on the guys, we’ve been fked with players out.

Not arguing against - mgw was the big one. He has been so important for us. To lose him is to essentially rip the heart out of the team. Of all the players to lose, he was the one we could not afford to lose.

It's not looking great is it. If they're at all capable think we need to get sangare and MGW on ASAP. Maybe murillo too.

For all the dominance from villa, we're still only 1 goal down in the tie! Come on lads!

Something needs to change if we are to stay alive. A third and it's curtains

Something needs to drastically change soon if we are going to get back into this.

Completely. Although, I'd also argue the lack of a proper full back also seriously damages us

If they are fit enough to be on the bench they need to get on the pitch pretty damn soon.
Unless MGW and Sangare were purely to bring on in the 119th min for pens?

I do wonder. Europa you can list loads of players in the match squad, they might not be at all for, just there to put doubt in the opposition or even just to be there for the lads on the pitch

Their pitch seems to be so slippy

Poor from the off.

Just so disappointing.
