Was my man of the match today. You once again, talk arse gravy. I thought he was the second best player but we were slow and had no penetration. And that has to come from your attacking midfielder which in this case is Afellay. Today was awful and he was part of the problem. You're mental

The game today was crap and in the first half we were crap and been matched by a side who are 20 points behind us,second half Afellay started to control the game by running with the ball,this made us play with more speed which created more space,when MH made the changes we went back to how we performed first half,before Christmas I would of said start Bojan but at this moment it would be Afellay who would start.

Its not even a contest is it?
Bojan is miles off the pace.
I thought Walters was abysmal today then bojan and joselu came on making Walters look like Ronaldo.

The attacking midfielder has to carry the can for a bit of that. He played well but he barely threatened the Villa defence which is his job.

There's no doubt Affelay deserves to play, we went to pieces when he went off today and was replaced by Bojan.

Just feels like we're settling for the ok girl cos she's good looking enough and is easy to get on with but we could do better with Afellay to me. We need a lot more from the player that plays where he does.

He played well but he barely threatened the Villa defence which is his job. I'm really not sure what you expect. Affelay carried our forward threat throughout the game. Our only sustained period of decent play came from him picking up the ball and driving at the heart of their team. He was excellent today. Its not his fault we've got two wingers who refuse to take on a defender of any description and a centre forward who is no target at all then when he is he's always offside. To single affelay out for any type of criticism is ridiculous. He's more than doing his job whilst most around him flounder or flatter to deceive.

He played well but he barely threatened the Villa defence which is his job. These are the same points, so they are still incorrect. With better finishing, we'd have scored several more. We had lots of chances - amazing you didn't notice. We also won the game. Their single shot went in and should have been chalked off for hand ball, meaning they would have created nothing at all. And Afellay was excellent if you actually bothered to watch the game. Really poor, as per.

It's down to the manager. We're hopeless at breaking sides down. It happened again today. The whole attack is at fault.

We needed to come out and play with more intensity and Afellay was key to that as we were playing 10 yards further up the pitch. He was excellent today, if he'd stayed on I think we'd have won by more.....

To single affelay out for any type of criticism is ridiculous. He's more than doing his job whilst most around him flounder or flatter to deceive. Agree Afellay started our second half drive with his runs. His retention of possession is outstanding. Our problems going forward are not with Afellay and Imbula but lie elsewhere. We got nothing from Walters, absolutely nothing. He doesn't have the pace, guile or aerial power to upset defences even Villa's which is truly awful. Shaq and Annie stayed too wide first half and it was only when they joined the team that we scored. Our full backs failed to contribute with the exception of one moment from Bardsley. Having wanted Bojan to come on at half-time, I have to admit the substitutions really messed us up. Bojan is just off it at the moment, he looks to have bulked up too much, and Joselu was ineffective. I know he has limitations, but Diouf's pace gives us a different option and he has to start but Afellay and Imbula are nailed on. I think Bojan and Imbula are too attack minded to play together so no spot for Bojan at the moment

Its not the fault of affelay (or Whelan and imbula) that our front 3 are so frustratingly bad at times nor is it their fault that none of their colleagues can seemingly cross a ball. Despite 2 goals Arnie was crap. Despite 2 super passes, shaqiri wasn't much better. If it wasn't for the ridiculously bad substitute performances of bojan and joselu, I suspect a Walters thread would be dominating tonight's message board. I agree we weren't great today but your pointing a finger in the wrong direction by aiming it at affelay. Fortunately not great was more than enough to beat the shower that was in front of us today. We've been there, at an even lower level, and you have to feel for the villa fans. Agbonlahor is supposed to be a villa fan and he played like he couldn't give a flying fuck.

Totally agree chiswick, our crossing from fullbacks and wingers is dog awful in fact I would go as far to say its the worst I have seen in a long time and that said with the skill we have in the side is just mind boggling! Alfie is the best player we have in that position at the moment and was the best player on the pitch today so why one numb nut is giving him abuse is unbelievable!

I'm not pointing it at Afellay but he is part of our problem at breaking crap teams down. He's the attacking midfielder he has to do more. Agree with everything else. But Afellay despite playing well is part of the issue we have as a team.

If you cannot see that we made chances, which we failed to convert and that Afellay played well, you obviously were not watching or have so poor an understanding of football and the match in question that you are frankly beyond hope. Either way, you are competely clueless and this is a waste of my time and energy
