  1. My German friends say Gladbach is a bit like the Villa of the Bundesliga????
  2. Commentator on Brighton v Toon: “ it’s a lovely football match. Such a joy. A lovely lovely football match!!!” I don’t know. It’s not that great. It’s been a bit leaden for the last ten minutes.
  3. Brighton have turned down the temperature a bit. Actually both squads have.
  4. Just reading about how Saudi Arabia sentenced a retired teacher to death for a tweet. No exaggeration, no “other side,” etc. It’s sheer horror. Do you think it’s a coincidence that Newcastle’s using the green of the Saudi flag in away kits?

  6. I find myself disliking Brighton a lot less than Toon. Is that a normative Villan response?
  7. Diego with a long beard would be able to give forwards death stares at will.
  8. What more can one ask, really, especially when you consider how far we've come so quickly? I mean, jesus -- we've been ****-ing incredible. It's almost too easy to forget that these days. And now we're headed to Anfield, and the Reds know they'll -- at the very least -- have some serious unpleasantness visited upon them.
  9. But Liverpool raking in £200 for an aging winger -- not sure I want that. Would rather draw or beat them along with Mo on Sunday. Winning at Anfield is statistically next to impossible. Didn't they only lose at home a single time last year or something crazy like that?
  10. Well, had a look at a Pool forum. On the positive side, they definitely take the Villa seriously. A few grudgers seem to think we wrecked their CL chance. There are some "I have a bad feeling about this" types -- same as we have here. On the negative side, they think our left is vulnerable and Bailey is a real weak spot if he plays on the left. One said we're basically gate-crashers trying to get into the Big Six party and we need to be "put in our place." I wouldn't say they're disrespectful. I saw admiration for Emery and McGinn. Don't seem to realise we have Nicolo now.
  11. Same here. I honestly would have accepted even worse from Olsen and still been pleased by his obvious efforts to improve. It’s sort of … poignant?
  12. Bring on Fiorentina -- or whoever. The Villa ship is in good shape for Europe. It's pretty amazing to see the versatility Unai has coaxed from this squad. Our players are proving themselves capable of evolving their talents in surprising and exciting ways.
  13. Olsen should come off. That's a head knock. Even on the chin, you can concuss.
  14. I thought the applause was for Dendoncker coming on ... haha ... not Dougie going off.
  15. Hibs were putting together some nice passes. They do have some talented players.
  16. Robin brings that out, I'm afraid. He wavers between seeming confidence and cockitup-ery often. Overall though, I think he's an asset to us at the moment. This game is a good thing for him. We need to have some options.
  17. Bailey on a higher order here. Great Kellyman assist. Almost felt like a discretionary goal for Leon. Effortless.
