Jesus christ. Fn out played them all 2nd half and lost.

Tonev, what the ****. Stop trying to be the hero.

Benteke is having a rough go of it.

Come on Bacuna, that had no prayer.

This is as bad as it could get. We are lucky to only be one down.

A lot of pride in that game but it just hurts so damn much when you feel you were wronged. We were clearly wronged.

I hate to bitch about refs but how do you miss that blatant handball?

That was the biggest bullshit foul and yellow card to set up that set piece. Why the hell was it a foul?

What a god damn animal he is. I love you Benteke.

How the hell is Gabby constantly offsides today?

I am very excited for the first match. I am rewatching the Eng. Sco. friendly from the other game and I cannot stand Theo Walcott.

That's okay buddy, everyone has their downsides Hahaha, NFL Fan? Who's your team?

I am going to say 12th. I say we finish above Palace, Fullham, Hull City, Newcastle, Norwich, Southampton, Sunderland, and West Brom.

I don't know if you are looking for other foreign fans to chime in but I figured this would be a good place to give my first post (aside from the intro post) and explain a little bit here. My name is Scott and I am from Pennsylvania, USA. I have been "soccer" fan about 18 years now (mostly just following the US national team and national competitions). My brother-in-law has been Chelsea supporter for a few years now and has been asking me to try to follow the Premier League and I decided to give it a go this year. I have paid attention to the league leisurely for a near 10 years and I told him I wanted to have a club to support rather than just look up scores and read stuff. This Summer I said I would decide on a club and set some parameters: They must have a player from the US that typically starts (Guzan). They cannot be one of the so called big 6 clubs (As a grown man I refuse to be a front runner or bandwaggon fan or as I am reading here "plastic fan). They had to have been one of the originial league founding members and they must have a a marquee player that I have heard of (Benteke). After narrowing it down this way, I decided Villa would be the club for me. I have spent the past couple weeks lurking on this site, waking up every morning to get the scoop on whats happening with the club. I am a loyal person and am invested in sports immensly here in America (Pennsylvania to be exact).I played every sport growing up soccer, basketball, baseball, football, hockey, tennis. Sports were a big part of my upringing and are still apart of my life as I am grown. I am a big fan of american football and basketball and have been a 49er (NFL) fan in american football most of my life and Wake Forest (college basketball) fan for most of my life. I now add a new club to support to my list of favorite teams back in the United States and I greatly look forward to my first year of following Villa. I also just had my wife order me a 13-14 away kit for our one year wedding anniversary coming up. (Sorry I went off on a tangent there)

I have been lurking on this board for about a week now and want to fully get into it and learn more about the game and the club. Nice to meet you ladies and gentlemen.
