Crowd seem very quiet. 

Yep. So much for the hyped return of European nights and big matchups. Pathetic effort from inside the ground.

**** hell Duran.

He's got loads of credit in the bank so we can forgive him and it wouldnt have changed the match result. But that was stupid, immature and now he's banned for key games. Very poor lapse in discipline John.

McGinn made zero attempt to play the ball and was very aggressive. If thats not dangerous play then what is?

Red or not, it was a stupid **** tackle.

Ahh yes the annual bending over to Spurs at Villa Park. We took a break from it last year but have lubed up ready to get back on track this season.

I wonder if this thread can go 5 posts without someone alluding to the fact that Bailey was poor in his first season then came good. I bet it cant.

He really is in hideous form. Hard to see how he gets out of it atm.

Abject game really. Not a great performance. We should have nothing to worry about at home but I really fancied us to win tonight.

That was dogshit quite frankly.

**** hell Diaby wake up.

It does kind of feel like a competition mainly for teams that would never have a chance of making Europe without it or have struggled in recent years. I didn’t think for a second we could get top 4 so was all for winning this. Now it feels like a distraction.  Let’s see what team Emery goes with.  

Maybe I'm crazy but I'd rather win a trophy than get top 4. Winning the CL is something we will remember forever. We could exit the CL group stage with a whimper like Newcastle did this season and then be stuck down in 8th with no chance of requalifying.

Need to find a way to play him and Bailey together, it can't be one or the other. We have to get them both firing at some point.

I'm inclined to agree. Because if its one or the other then it's Bailey by some distance obviously. I don't think our record signing should be making 15 minute cameos and I don't think he will accept that long term either.

We need to find a way to play them both or sell Diaby. It goes without saying that this is completely dependent on Diaby getting back to his best form.

Luke Moore vs Boro. Thought the kid had arrived

I remember they chose this match for game of the day on Sky. Back in the days when they would show the full game of choice at about 8pm. I was going to go out that night but stayed in just to watch it 

Great cross and good play before it. But when he gave the ball away near the end 

Still, have to look at the positive and his assist won us the game.

Never in doubt. A shambolic second half but I'm not going to think about that tonight. I'm just delighted we **** won.

We've been under heavy pressure for 25 minutes and we've done nothing to stop it.

Looking back at that goal, Watkins first touch a thing of beauty, an you don't save those finshes. 

It was taken as well as anyone could do in world football. World class stuff.

One of the best strikers in the world. Make no mistake.

It's just occurred to me that Ollie is having the best season by a Villa striker in the Premier League era.
