    Law of averages, innit. Probability of not winning a home game for four months is virtually zero. Basically impossible for us not to win.

    Villa haven't won away since January.

    Charity FC.

    As proven by that own goal. And we haven't looked like scoring. And the set pieces are still abysmal.

    We do, dominated but created nothing, just like so many other times this season.

    As opposed to Villa who have been dominated, and also created nothing. Honestly, I swear sometimes two thirds of the people on this board would find a five and complain it's not a ten.

    We're dominating possession, but in mainly harmless areas. As soon as we get near the box it falls apart.

    At the risk of sounding like a heretic, I wonder what we'd look like if we sacrificed one of Sangare and Anderson to add an extra midfielder capable of playing in the last third, or a second forward.

    They created a goal. Two minutes later an excellent chance that wasn't offside. Our best chances have been to shoot from 25 yards.

    As I say that..... Boom, from 25 yards!

    I wonder how much of the good passage of play leading up to our goal was attributable to the mini powwow afforded to Pereira by Sels going down

    Several times MGW has pushed up alongside Jesus and there has been a gaping hole between them and Sangare / Ando, neither of whom look like they want to run with the ball. So it goes to the (invariably double marked) wingers, who tend not to be able to beat their man and have to recycle possession backwards.
    No wonder we end up with defenders having to take shots from outside the box. At least one has gone in this time.

    A lot. Sels has done it a coupel of times in the last couple of months. I think Brighton and someone else ?
