Great link. What a miss by their number 7. 4 yards out, middle of the goal, keeper stranded and he puts it over the bar.

1-0 down bad mistake from turnbull. very young side out, nice to see kakuta back. bruma playing as a deep midfielder which is a bit strange.

Thanks Abramovic.

2-0 another bad mistake by turnbull...

Turnbull is having a mare. Another mistake and it's 0-2.

That defence looks scary, Villa should have just got a 3rd

Thanks for the link btw, abramovich!

ffs 3

Bloody hell, we're terrible! Still, I suppose it's only to be expected with most of the reserves now out on loan

My grandfather was a keeper in 1950. He could probably do a better job than Turnbull has done today. Absoutely awful performance and the only one to blame for all three goals. Not very promising at all.

Studge hits the bar with a superb freekick

Sturridge looking decent tonight - must admit, Villa look very good though

Great shot from Kakuta!

Good god.

4-0.

Tonight is Turnbull's night isn't it. That would be some kind of a record...4 goals and the keeper has a huge part in all of those.

Well that was pretty comprehensive - 4-0 to Villa, and it could have been a lot more.

Very poor performance by Chelsea, but as I said before, a lot of our reserves are now out on loan. The only positives for me were Danny Sturridge, Michael Woods & Gael Kakuta (who should have been playing further up the pitch). I don't understand why we had 5 defenders on the pitch (Nana, Bruma, Hutchinson, Magnay & Gordon), maybe we played one of them in midfield? Didn't look like it to me though.

Villa are the reserves Champions from last season, and they looked it - I was very impressed with Marc Albrighton, Chris Herd and Barry Bannan.

No doubt we'll learn from this and improve - the sooner the better :Whistle:

I had to og out on a standby but from what I saw Aston Villa are a cracking side, our goalie flattered them but they were very quick and a good passing side

Yeah, our reserve defence has looked very, very dodgy from what I've seen, and from the sounds of it tonight was no different.

I seen Turnbull in pre-season and he made me wonder why we bothered. Hope that someone is seeing something in him that I've not!

Things to pray for this season:

1 - Cech stays fit.

Things to be thankful for this season:

1 - Hilario is still here :)

1. He's English

2. He was available

3. .... now you've lost me

I wasn't quite sure why we signed Turnbull either. Replacing Carlo Cudicini (once the best keeper in the Premiership) with Boro (who got relegated, remember!)'s second choice was never going to end well...

At least we have Hilario, who is solid if nothing else.

it's just one bad game, every player has one.

he's perfectly ok as a back up keeper.
