We look utterly clueless up front. Not good watching so far and I'm a few beers in. :cry:

We are getting in and around the 18 yd box - if only we had someone who can finish. Maybe BK would like a run up front.

Summed up right then, great run and ball from Oster to Matejovsky, with a great ball to Doyle, who missed by a mile.

Derby 0-3 Villa, painful for the bottom side.

Doyle puts a header wide from 8 yards. Should have been 1-1.

Kitson would have buried that (if he had actually managed to get into the box).

Some good pressure from us at last.

They look ropey when we apply a bit of pressure. Not sure about Keller as well.

Boos at halftime.

Shots on target - 0.

Really not good enough.

H/T.

So, to sum up the half - some good approach play, especially from Johnny O. Lousy up front.

Desperate attacking towards the end of the half.

We can score, we really can - it may have to come from someone other than our front two.

I'd like to say take off Doyle, however, twice he has been in a position to score, and I just get the gut feeling that he will break his duck. Having said that, if he hasn't by 60-65 minutes, then Kits should come on.

Agree - we're really at the diminishing returns stage now with Doyle.

Get Long and Oster off at half time and put Kitson and Little on.

Even if Litttle is lacking match fitness, atleast he can actually beat a man put a decent cross in. Something that Oster hasn't done in the entire first half.
