90 minutes to save his job? No way.
However, Steve Bruce urgently needs to get Villa looking like a side allegedly seeking promotion.
Cardiff saw us totally over-run. Reading, we were out-thought from the off.
Be it Bruce’s tactics or the lacklustre showings from a plethora of recently arrived faces, the narrative simply has to change.
Xia has been unnervingly silent or cryptic in his communications, suggesting a watching brief for the time being.
Whilst Bruce has more time from the boardroom, the terraces may not be so forgiving.
As fans we want fight, spirit & at the very least a side that competes.
We also want to get our season on track, starting now.
