Carn 71 Posted October 5, 2019 Think a few players need to be dropped now. You can't go on with some of these individual **** performances week after week without losing your place. Injury crisis or not, some of our supposed locked in starters have been dreadful lately. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Orly 277 Posted October 5, 2019 I hate to say it, but I think the verdict of whether Stiepy is a premier league player or not is in, and it's an emphatic "no". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crafty Canary 495 Posted October 5, 2019 When we are 4 down surely substitutions should be made to try and change things. When you look at the next 6 fixtures I can only see us getting points against Watford, We desperately need some change in fortune on the injury front.

Villa spent something like £150m and we're absolutely ravaged by injuries. The defending has been shocking but there some serious caveats that need to be taken into account. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unique 435 Posted October 5, 2019 The Man City game seems a long, long time ago......0 goals scored and 8 conceded ago..... Has it had a bad effect on the players’ mentality? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is fun. Have you given any consideration at all to the fact that our most talented player is a natural number 10 who has been shoved out wide? No, because you are a donut. Give your head a shake. None of those "stats" have anything to do with Norwich, do they?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted October 5, 2019 Definitely our worst performance this season at fortress carrow road. We actually played better at Field. Since that Man City win we have been extremely poor. Bullied out of it in most games and I am afraid to say we have been outplayed in this one. The fortress looks pretty vulnerable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We play two natural defensive midfielders in centre defence, and a striker in attacking midfield right now (Srbeny). If finding a way to move Buendia to number 10 is such an 'out there' idea to you, then I suggest you have a severe lack of imagination. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted October 5, 2019 Can't blame this all on injuries, because we chose not to name 25 players.... we named 23. We should have spent more money, or made full use of our loan spots, as simple as that.  2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Orly 277 Posted October 5, 2019 Hah, you seem to be having a bit of a hard time understanding my initial post, so I'll try one last time, and then I'll give up. Nowhere have I blamed the loss solely on Stiepermann. As you point out, and as I mentioned earlier in this match thread, Leitner, both CBs, and Emi also had dreadful games. However, Marco now has the same number of premier league goals and assists as me, after 7 premier league games.  He had, was it, 6 chances today? Looked nowhere near scoring any of them. So whilst he may not be responsible for our defensive behaviour, he has to accept that he has had a major hand in us not scoring at all today. Are you advocating that Marco start the next game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
