    I thought it was absolutely fascinating television. Watching all the different new players was loads of fun and just so interesting. Kellyman is a young kid and he was totally fearless. Carlos is like some Spartan warrior. Diaby and Jaden both seem so overloaded with skills on the ball, I often find myself having to hit replay so I can see what's happening at lightning speeds. As for weakness, awkwardness, the bad passes, the missed penalty --- all that stuff seemed incidental to the big, broader reality: We have a cracking good squad. Considering how deeply Emery tapped into Villa's roster, this match not only bodes well for the Villa, but -- for those of us still pinching ourselves that we're even in Europe -- nudged me across the line towards thinking we definitely need to be pushing for the CL. Why wouldn't be? Who's better than us when we playing well? Maybe Citeh, maybe. But with this group of talented players, we should fear no one. Main positives: Diaby, Martinez, Dougie, Tielemans, Konsa, Kellyman ... and erm, sort of, Olsen. Mings super impressive, too. Digne sometimes great. Diego growing in power and leadership. Skilled and scary. I feel a little concern about Archer he'll improve with more confidence. I think Torres is absolutely sure to gain in boldness. He's still getting his shipping tape off.

    Emery does seem to enjoy winning.

    Thanks to you English VTs for staying up for this. You've made this brilliant and lots of fun. All I have to do normally is get up at some ungodly hour once in a while.

    Do we need to practice our time-wasting skills? It does take skill, after all.

    I don't like this tikki takka football we're playing in our own penalty area. Find a different part of the pitch please.

    I fear this match is going to hurt Cam Archer's confidence right when he needs it most.
  7. Marka Ragnos
    Mings' confidence is just stunning. It actually scares Fulham players away like mice.

    Not sure we need a new striker. New right back, yes.

    This. It's been horrible. Let the game pro-friggin-ceed!

    We are lucky as ****.

    Diaby exudes a kind of VERY serious impatient-to-score vibe.
  13. Marka Ragnos
    Poor Cameron looks kind of crushed. I feel bad for him.
  14. Marka Ragnos
    I actually thought you two were joking around.

    This match is becoming as start-stop as a King Crimson song.

    Tielemans does pass the ball back a lot. Just sayin'
  17. Marka Ragnos
    Need to get a rhythm going.

    I'm buzzing ... what a great chance to see so many different players.
  19. Marka Ragnos
    Cash and Diaby makes sense, too. Diaby needs a speedy workhorse behind him to help him stab forward and inside.

    Definitely offers a certain stable sort of approach for us, and it's really great to have that in our defensive portfolio. I suppose Emery will use Konsa when he's the right fit vs. a given opposition -- horses for courses, etc. I just hope he gets enough game time to keep him sharpened.
  21. Marka Ragnos
    I think it's understandable as a worry. He's still very much a new player for us, too. We don't really know him that well. I have a hunch he's aware of what he's doing and he plays a fine line, but maybe I'm naive.

    Where's Sunday's Buendia? Two bad through passes he would have just dribbled forward with vs. Newcastle.
  23. Marka Ragnos
    All these target man passes to Kamara and Tielemans just aren't working. Did we do this so much vs. Newcastle????
  24. Marka Ragnos
    God, I love Villa. It's like a disease, this love.

    "Villa are taking a big chance with the high line!"
