It is would have been the perfect time to conjure  some dark arts, throw a defender or two on, a DM slow the game down, maybe he just lacks experience but it’s a poor showing given the circumstances.

Ultimately he's only had a few years in Scotland and a few months in the PL as a manager. Tbf he/they did a job on City for 70 minutes but needed that nous to be able to see it out. Even if they scored 3 in the last 20 it's one thing but 3 in 5 minutes is just piss poor, that's on you. Look at City at 3-2. Spent the rest of the game time wasting.

If people want to get pissed off then do it on the right people. Put it on the gutless authorities that have allowed football to be taken over by disgusting states. That is where our anger should be not on Steven Gerrard and Aston Villa.

Yep, most of the posts don't even make sense "he should have brought on a DM and gone defensive". He put a DM on for Phil at 2-0. Funnily enough Villa fans are saying they went too defensive with that sub and invited pressure, can't win really.

Christ I’ve just seen City’s second and third goals.

The second goal, the keeper was two yards from it and still couldn’t get down in time.

The third, Mings first touch was a disgrace for a premier league player, and yet again the keeper was missing in action.

That shit was bad from them.

Yeah I'm not getting the Villa hate, City are a very good team and could do that to 90% of this league. I think it's just the disappointment about losing the league but realistically did anyone think Villa could take a point let alone 3?

When 2 - 0 up, sure. At the start, no. They had done so well against expectations to get into such a good position, but wasted it.

Teams can come back from 2 or 3 goals down over 90 minutes, but in near 30 years of watching the game, it's only Istanbul and this one where I can recall a side score 3 goals in 6 - 7 minutes to materially change the result at this level. This is rare, and as with Istanbul, there probably is a mental weakness and failure on the side of the losing manager and players to immediately react, slow the game down, waste time, fake injury  etc.

Everyone’s losing their heads. He may not be, time will tell but no one (maybe not him!) expected  them to be 2 up at City in the first place. 99% of people probably thought City would win today.

At least they had a go, them conceding early and never being in it at all felt the more likely scenario. It’s frustrating but meh, he hasn’t cost us the title.

Being tired is fine, losing 3 goals in 5 minutes is unpardonable even if they were a man down. That is some special bottling. Started with the weird subs, you never try to go passive against City completely.

Just like the 13/14 season, no one will let Gerrard forget that he bottled the title for Liverpool in 21/22.
I think he didn't lose the title, but this is a good excuse to keep him away from the Liverpool job for which he is definitely underqualified and probable not manager material.

He can't get the Liverpool job just for being Steven Gerrard it'd need to be on merit, so he'd need monumental achievements with Villa to be in the frame.

Judging from some of the ridiculous shouts on here it would have been better if they just lay down and got tickled from the start.

As for Liverpool job and Gerrard, nothing he will do with Villa will prepare him so whilst he is still there no point even speculating. We are not a club that can appoint 'do a job' managers, not after Klopp

Villa did far better than anyone expected them to. I wrote off their game before it even began, and expected a routine 5-0 to the sportswash.

Let's face it, the only surprise in that game was Villa taking the lead in the first place. Blowing it was no surprise whatsoever.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Aston Villa goalkeeper Robin Olsen was attacked during a field invasion by Manchester City fans celebrating winning the Premier League title on Sunday.

The incident happened as Olsen tried to leave the Etihad Stadium pitch which became covered in thousands of City fans. Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard had no news of Olsen’s condition in the news conference after Villa’s 3-2 loss on the final day of the season.

City said it was opening an investigation and would issue an indefinite stadium ban to the fan responsible.

“Manchester City would like to sincerely apologize to Aston Villa goalkeeper Robin Olsen, who was assaulted after the final whistle at today’s match when fans entered the pitch,” the club said in a statement.

The English Football Association said on Friday it was “very concerned” about a series of pitch invasions that have marred the end of the season.

It's not just Mings, the whole Villa defence needs work. Cash believes he's a cross between TAA and Jack Grealish and he can be effective going forward, but on both Gundogan goals he seemed to have no idea what was going on behind him. Add to that a weak goalie and you can understand how a team can score three times in six minutes. Gerrard knows he's got work to do in the close season.

What happened today is not on Villa or Gerrard, it's on the TV companies who required them to play a match on the Thursday night leaving only 2 full days recovery before playing today. All so matches wouldn't clash with the Europa final. Burnley also got shafted but not to worry it's the greatest league in the world isn't it  ::)

Exactly. Some of the posts in here are fucking ridiculous.

Give a man a mask and he will tell the truth, Give a man a user name and he will act like a total twat.

he did his best as always. almost pulled it off but as was said already, they ran out of legs as a direct result of having a game on Thursday.

you have to question why that games was scheduled for Thursday.
