I can't remember the last time a player was both a hero and one of our worst players in a game

You can't appeal yellows

On the news last night they said that there was also some previous investigation about getting a dog drunk. Just your every day Tory MP stuff really

The Henmania triple fist pump - VINTAGE Unai.

New album out today. A really good listen so far!

A couple of months back the Liverpool players were gonna win the lot because of Klopp as an amazing send off. Now apparently the same group of players are under lots of stress and pressure because of Klopp leaving. Basically just making stories fit the performances.

It is true, unfortunately. At least until they appeal the stupid shootout booking.

I really wish I’d paid more attention in French at school now because I’d love to be able to read what they’d written on LilleTalk about last night. I bet even the most levelheaded Lille fan was either having an aneurism or just incoherent with rage. Do we have any French speakers who could get us a few choice quotes?

Must have hurt when they celebrated the evil Matty Cash scored to save the coefficient

The Manchester accent completely threw me for a minute there.

On that subject (and this could equally have gone in the Books or Religion threads), this is well worth a read:

Emery has the ability to grind out these results, it’s why he’s won 4 European trophies. Why were the 2nd best team over both legs, but even when Lille went 2 up, we were still in the tie, and managed to get over the line to force ET.

Probably something like that. Interesting that the BBC and Guardian use different spellings though.

Looking ahead to next season - works for us to have both Newcastle and Man U in European competition. Really will stretch their squads. Most of the Conference League who plays man united will treat it as probably their biggest games ever, it won't be easy for them.

Are we going to single handedly drag Spurs into the Champions League with us?

Just started Ripley. Looks promising, particularly the b&w cinematography, which gives it a very 'period authentic' look.

The Guardian labelled him the Tainted Martinez I bet Pickford does it he be labelled clever

Last night was the most ever Villa way to win a tie. IMO we were poor but probably created the best chances - Cash, Dougie, Duran all score on another night. Other than their 2 goals, they didn't really create a lot. You just knew if it went to pens we'd win though. My lad is 17 and he wanted it to go to pens, even at the start of ET, cos, as he said, we have Emi and we will win. He was spot on. It was all a bit mental and I've woke up this morning with a thick head, a sore throat - my neighbours must of thought I was laying the smackdown on my family with the amount of shouting cos of the ref - and a need to rewatch the game, or at least that shootout a few hundred times. Bring on the Greeks

Olsen, we had a sub left and would have lost a peno taker

This. Cash nearly scored three goals FFS and yet still some aren't happy! When Emery was first at Villa, Cash was playing well, unfortunately he's had a few injuries. Villa have some strange and highly critical fans.

I love how he is really really into it. But for his players and his club he walks straight down the tunnel and probably on the laptop within 5 minutes.

Was there a post match interview, I've not seen anything?
