  1. Yeah Zaniolo played well when he got on against Brentford... Gave Villa an outlet, strong with the ball and direct. Good to see, the goal in Europe will have helped his confidence.
  2. First-half Villa were pretty average yet controlled much of the game. They offer nothing to the game yet score a fluke goal. Second-half Villa much improved and deserved to win, statistics also confirm this. Brentford are poor losers though and they are a poor team; finally Ben Mee gets his comeuppance for being a s*** footballer. Moreno MOTM for me and great to see him back.
  3. Villa look really half-ass** today... Terrible goal to concede, sloppy and poor to react... Just an awful first-half.
  4. Bizarre take... So no white players have had the same treatment? Pretty sure we've heard similar things said recently about Zaniolo and even McGinn during Smith and Gerrard's time. It's absurd, absolutely absurd.
  5. I don't know, you'd like to think many managers would want to be remembered for their achievements in the game. I too think he's a good manager but madness to go to to Chelsea.
  6. So it was Chambers who got done for their goal?
  7. Again, I thought Jhon Durán did well and signs of maturity. Good experience for him. Held the ball up well at times, some nice passes, good runs, alert and got a few shots off. Eight changes to the team didn't really help much either, it was a disjointed display from all.
  8. Potter isn't that stupid is he? Well he did go to Chelsea so he probably is. I hope Man Poo keep Ten Haag a little longer, well until Villa play them.
  9. It's a potential trophy, which is something Villa have lacked for so long. A couple of reinforcements in January and Villa will be strong for both PL and Europe.
  10. Good touch and finish for the goal, tried to get involved in the game and make things happen.
  11. Be much better if we bundle in a haircut as part of the deal?
  12. Yeah, not even four minutes in then switched it off....annoying...
  13. Lots of smoke around Luiz now, I guess it's a product of our success and will continue to be a problem if we are not fancied as a 'top four' club. Someone will be spinning this, whether it is the players agent or the media. Douglas Luiz has been one of my favourite players since his great displays during 'project restart'; I'd be really sad to see him in another PL team and especially Arse. I'm hoping IF he does leave us he will go to Real Madrid, he'd be great in La Liga.
  14. Yeah I concur, Villa need reinforcements. Spuds, Barcodes and Man Poo could all be out of Europe so will be rested for an assault on the CL places. Anyone seen Alex Baena play at all, must admit I've heard of him but I never watch La Liga anymore.
  15. Remember what Benjamin Zephaniah said: "Form is temporary, but class is permanent and you know what, we have class".
  16. Egg head getting the sack then, pity. Who are the favourites for the Man Poo job now?
  17. I was down for the Wet Spam match and met him and a few other players after the game. Buendia was mobile, went in and out the players entrance a few times and he was still limping very badly. That was 22nd October. I'd say we may see him back in a Villa shirt this season but probably only the last couple of months all going well.
  18. Also under Unai Emery Villa are grinding out results, previously we played well against Arsenal and lost. Villa are also capable of dominating Man S***** and winning well.
  19. Bosnich was on SKY this morning saying Villa are very much in the Title Race. And you know we are having just beaten two of the best PL teams in the space of three days; it's incredible really. Brentford are tough at their place though so i'd take a point.
  20. Needs a well-earned rest I think in the midweek European game away... He played great against City and looked a little tired against Arsenal; need him fresh for the next PL game with Luiz missing out.
  21. It's actually a myth (of sorts)...regarding buying players in January. Villa bought Moreno, even way back we bought John Carew and Ashley Young. Looking through time you can find many others top players who moved in January: Van Dijk is one of them...
  22. Haha yes indeed the run is cool you can tell he's putting absolutely everything to tracking back. Love him and all the Villa players: "Honest bunch of lads".
  23. This. The atmosphere on Wednesday sounded great but it can always be improved upon.
  24. People saying we were drained from the performance but Villa could also be galvanised; one last push and then we can change things around. Also the luxury of Ramsey, Diaby and Moreno raring to go. I thought for long periods of the game against man s***** Villa were looking to control the game, especially as the match got into the last ten minutes. Pretty sure Unai will want to keep a settled team but he can change it too.
  25. Just a great performance, the whole team could easily have qualified for MOTM. But yes Bailey was great and had them worried every time he got the ball, looking to turn, run and take players on. Defence and midfield ALL of them exceptional. It's probably the best I've seen Villa player since forever (mid-eighties) because of the calibre of the opposition and their confidence. Villa tactically were brilliant which is why this victory is up there, Emery outthought Guardiola. From watching on TV the noise seemed deafening too, much of the same for our remaining games will keep the energy high. Emery is constantly name-checking the fans and their support and it is greatly appreciated.
