I think he's been itching to get out of Blackburn for a while, in part due to the owners. Club he had a very successful playing career at & closer to home which is also a big driver for him. Seems a done deal.

11:30pm kickoff

There's no excusing some of the individual errors; Binks for the 3rd & Lati was poor throughout but you're right. Actually felt a bit sorry for Lati, he was absolutely hung out to dry by the tactics. The roundest of pegs in the squarest of holes as RWB. Then with Thomas following Clarke into...

Incredible performance from Chisora. He's never easy on the eye but what an absolute warrior.

LAMPARD - IT WAS AN OK PERFORMANCE “I think we probably edged the possession, and chances, maybe we edged it overall. They had better chances that were predominantly from errors and mistakes from us, which is disappointing. Other than that, I don’t think the scoreline really reflects the game...

Little bit disappointed that Lampard thinks we were the better side & is pinning it purely on individual mistakes & nothing at all to do with his crazy tactics or team selection. Think he usually speaks very well but this a bit a delusional.

Gave us a free pass on Wednesday night but today has just been utter suicide. Shocking.

We got some things wrong tonight undoubtedly but our season isn't defined by games vs Leeds. They are absolutely levels above us & an unbelievable side at this level. Simms at fault for the first & obviously Dovin for the second but I thought they were both excellent apart from that.

Correct. I posted about it before he got his PL move.

Agreed. Good to hear that as it was an issue for Lampard at Chelsea.

I think you'll find it was "an unnamed premier league footballer in his 30's"

About as comprehensive a thrashing as you're ever likely to see at this level.

Not sure... selling your top striker at this stage of the season when you're involved in an incredibly tight playoff push is a hell of a risk. Iheanacho obviously has talent but is an enigma, not someone I'd be confident in relying on.

We got it wrong a few times even whilst leading vs Bristol City & Blackburn & it felt like an unnecessary risk but much improved in the last 2. I don't think it's a coincidence that's been when Binks hasn't played.

Rogers is clearly offside & his sole intention is to impact Semedo from defending. Don't understand how this is even controversial tbh.

Malen's 'goal' for Villa? Correct decision & an excellent spot by the ref & lino.

The hyperbole over it was always ridiculous. Our recruitment generally has been very, very good. I think we were lacking in a couple of areas, notably some experience & another midfielder, which we have hopefully solved now. You could argue we'd still ideally add another 1 or 2 but for Top 6...

Bit of both. They are absolutely dreadful but we're playing it sensibly & about as comfortable as can be.

God knows how this is still only 0-2
