I'm not crazy about Chelsea having more shots on target with only one-third of the possession, but that's just me.

Well that was about as terrible as one would have imagined. We suck so much donkey balls.

We can't even execute simple passes. I swear I could step into our team and wouldn't even look out of place right now.

It's almost like we actively try not to score or threaten for about 99% of the match even when we stumble and find ourselves in a possible position to do so.

Matic can diaf after his donkey handball Saturday and that 1v1 effort today.

Sell everyone on the team except the center backs and Azpi and I guess Willian can stay too because he at least tries and might hit a free kick from time to time.

Everyone else out, Hiddink out, I'm out.

Pretty much all of that. Do we not have a striker other than Costa? We elect to go with Hazard as a false 9?

ETA: one positive for me was Le Saux, Dixon, and White. I find them incredibly entertaining.

Question, what do you United and Chelsea fans attribute the lack of form to? Is it more on the players or the managers at this point? Or is it just a toxic combination of both?

Crazy what's going between the two.

I don't know about United our team is just full of a bunch of count. Costa and Cesc we kinda knew about but Hazard has fallen into that category this year as well. That combined with Ivanovic and Matic seemingly aging ten years over the summer has been the recipe for a total disaster.

i basically like everyone on our team we just suck. we play pretty damn boring recently other than today and we still can't score.

i dunno if it's the terribleness of the players or if it's LvG or if it's combo.

we're just poop. albeit slightly better poop today.

I am fricking sick of us not even trying to win a game

Kieran Richardson at LW while we have Grealish, Traore, Sinclair and Gil on the fuxking bench

It's not like we are away to city it's Norwich...the team we need to catch

I accepted about a month ago we are down but atleast go out guns blazing play a team like

Guzan
Bacuna Richards Lescott Richardson
Vertout Sanchez
Traore Grealish Sinclair
Ayew

That team gets back to what Villa have thrived on for the last 10 years, counter attack and run the wheels off of people

Alan Hutton can get hit by a bus
The fact that Traore hasn't started a game yet is an absolute joke, £7m in the summer positive when he comes on but we dare not give him more than a half an hour.

If/when we go down we won't come back up.

Same.

DDG is world class, but a great goalkeeper can only win you points if you actually score on the other end.

Martial has incredible potential and has individual moments of brilliance, but he's young and inconsistent.

Rooney has fallen so far off the wagon it's unbelievable.

Grealish should start every game for AV. When I watched him play last year he was awesome. Despite being so young he is an incredibly intelligent player who reads the game very well.

Child please I was the first to see this coming, though admittedly not to this degree. I thought we would struggle for top 4 not be fighting a relegation battle.

I don't think anyone could have predicted how terrible y'all would be this year.

No. $$$$$$ and London means you will always have the opportunity to attract top players.

Part of the fear factor was also lost when y'all lost to Red Bulls II, aka their USL team + some youth players.

Chelsea starting going downhill when Costa came on board and Willian became a full time player.

Both of these players should be subs. Willian is great on free kicks and worthless elsewhere. Costa is a poison that has degraded the team since he came on board, but masked by his ability to score on occasion - but not enough to win consistently.

Hasn't Willian been their best player this year?
