  1. Lucky yam yam bar stewards. Torres did great not diving in as he could have left a huge space in behind. He got outrun but we had enough behind him to deal with their goal. Digne was unlucky to divert it straight to their man. But, Carlos was ball-watching. Konsa was way behind him yet quickest to react and unfortunate not to get a block in.
  2. Tielemans is just not doing it. He gives the ball away far too much. Dendoncker is like a sideways player who is afraid to play a forward pass. Bailey keeps losing the ball or giving it away. With our injury list there's not much we can do. It's nights like this I wish we kept Young and Philogene. If he's serious about winning this game I think Unai needs to bring in Dougie, Ollie and Matty.
  3. For me, Emi is the first name on the team sheet and without doubt our most important player.
  4. I'd just love all Villa fans to realise where we've come from in the past decade, enjoy the fact our defence plays mostly in the opposition half, see how frequently we score goals, watch our management team celebrate every goal, see us climbing higher and higher up the table and stop moaning when our weakened starting eleven lose cup games. Honestly, I could cry watching how beautiful we look as a team and then unhappy tears at how our fans whing because Tielemans makes a poor pass that leads to a cup defeat. Sit back and enjoy the overall experience right now because I live in fear of Unai, Nas or Wes getting bored of us, I really do.

  6. Crazy to say but, was this is easiest game of the season?
  7. Brilliant display yet again! He did great to hold his discipline in that second half after his yellow. Brilliant performance, yet again. We're not missing Moreno and I never thought that possible.
  8. Looking back to his best. When Bouba is at it he's absolutely brilliant! We are so lucky to have him.
  9. He's not a natural striker but there's no doubt he's good enough for where we are. Ollie works his socks off every game and chips in with enough goals to more than justify his place in any Premier League team. He was great today!
  10. He's going to be the best Villa defender ever if he stays long enough. Absolutely wonderful footballer who just oozes class with the ball at his feet.
  11. Our Bellingham. Absolutely brilliant player who works hard up and down the pitch. So happy to see JJ back playing and on the scoresheet.
  12. I absolutely love him! I have said for a very long time that he's our best centre back. I just think he's got that game that nobody can pass. He's great and he looked his best today.
  13. Matty was brilliant today. I wish he would be more willing to overlap when in attack. He had chances prior to that first assist. He defended brilliantly against a very difficult opponent.
  14. Yeah but the fans need to stop with stupid comments after we lose the odd game. Seriously, I'm sure we've now attracted a load of hangers-on who aren't real Villa fans. The atmosphere at Villa Park today was dead at 3-0. That wasn't shock!
  15. For me, Dougie is Captain material. Whenever John McGinn doesn't play, Dougie has to be Captain.
  16. No, he's not. Holding midfielders font score in five consecutive home games! He's in the top 3 midfielders in the PL.
  17. By the way, if you question how good Unai Emery is, I am a better Villa fan than you!
  18. Honestly, I read some comments from moron's and wonder 1) How on earth do these people call themselves supporters and 2) How long have they followed Villa. For any sensible Villa fan, you must be wondering how on earth we got our owners and manager. This is THE best Villa manager in my 51 years and he is only two transfer windows into his management. The owners need to give him the keys to the safe because Unai is THE real deal and will take us wherever they want us to go.
  19. Gets better and better. We're really seeing prime Dougie right now.
  20. Looks a really good player. Got a bit of an edge to him and I like that in a player.
  21. It wasn't a faultless display from the lads but please remember we were playing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Yes, this isn't an elite Chelsea of old but, it is still Chelsea away with many expensive international players in their side. I have no doubt that Unai will make us a real force but we are still less than a year into his management of us. To expect us to go there and roll them over easily is getting ahead of ourselves a little bit. We needed Emi and the defence at times but, that's why you have a keeper and defence. They performed well for us and have us a platform to go win the game. Remember, their keeper made a few really good saves and the score could have looked a lot more impressive if it wasn't for him. We may struggle against Man City, Arsenal, Newcastle, Liverpool, Spurs and Man Utd but there's nobody else to fear in this league. And, I'm sure when right at it we can give those other six a real game too.
  22. Absolutely! No mention of the fact he had both feet off the ground going into that challenge either.
  23. That ref was disgraceful. I cannot believe he even developed balls enough to change that yellow to a red. He was appallingly bad. We did well. They still carry a lot of quality and we could have had more if it wasn't for their keeper.
  24. Must be a Chelsea fan, like the ends commentating.
  25. Notice how Chelsea are blocking off Torres from receiving the ball whenever any of our back line have the ball. They are stopping him taking the ball forward out of defence.
