For those reasons, coupled with what is for me a correct decision for a penalty shout on Kaboul, I don't understand Sherwoods comment that they were robbed. They just weren't clinical enough.
I like that we're scoring goals, for a club that never scores enough goals, but our defence was just as embarassing yesterday as it has been for the first three weeks, we just weren't made to pay for it as much.

Yo Neil! Welcome back! You've been missed. You gonna be around for Metal Month III?
As for Villa, you're right: we weren't robbed, we just went to sleep at the end. Missing Benteke and Delph. That's what happens when you sell your best players. Not a great start for us, but nothing unexpected. Mid to low-table finish, anyone?

Still feel like it was two points lost.
That M'Vila I think it was, looks decent. Scored the free kick and pinged some pass to Defoe who should have scored. I'm sure it was him anyway. |
Too early yes, but we almost went down last season and at the moment I don't see any reason to think we won't be in a scrap to survive again this year.
Note: anyone notice the opening titles on MOTD: "Wide open title race"? At four games in? Jesus! Of course it's ****ing wide open at this point!

You guys is gonna have to get your **** together if you want to keep that title. Very poor performances. You couldn't afford to have lost Terry, and look what happened. Roman cannot be pleased.
