Over the last couple of weeks there have been call for Ajayi to be moved into midfield; I have to be honest and thought it might be worth a punt. I think today we saw why it would be a catastrophe, he was dreadful. Unfortunately, when he moved back into his back four role, he was equally shocking. I would give him 1/10 for that performance- the 1 only earned because he scored. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an Albion team so devoid of talent. Someone earlier commented that this gave Allardyce the chance to look at some of the fringe players; I would argue that his starting 11 comprised players who all would be considered first team squad, that’s the disturbing part for me. Villa’s youth team, based upon their performance last night, would have beaten us. We were disgraceful.
