Who the **** is this guy nuthugging Man Utd?

agree, what have they done? only failed to break us down so far

he's far too good a footballer to play the long ball to him, what an outstanding player

I'm having visions of it now.. Ashley Young hat trick. And after the 3rd (which was a penalty he dived to win) he struts over to the Holte, kisses his badge and moons the crowd to show a tattoo that says "**** YOU".

 

Not only does he not get a yellow for this, but the Holte End receives a yellow for provoking him.

I'd love to see cards introduced in football for crowds. And managers and the crowd can show cards to match officials. cards for everyone.

 

 

 

Rooney has scored more against Villa then any other side, just like Nolan has scored more against Villa then any other side, just like Lampard has scored more against Villa then any other side, just like Gerrard has scored more against Villa then any other side, just like Lescott has scored more against villa then any other side

I've also read man u have got more points from villa than any other team.

 

All of those are simply the result of us being the worst of the few teams who have always been in the Premier League (when records began). 

 

 

Pretty much.

 

At first when you see these stats you think "typical Villa" etc but the real reason is pretty mundane.

 

Speaking of funny stats, did Luis Suarez ever score against us once?

 

Unfortunately the rat got a close range header to draw with us under McLeish, not his finest goal ever though.

what's the truth then, Keane had a bust up with the players, or that Keane had a bust up with Cleverley for saying he has a bust up with the players when he didn't?

Gossip based on gossip.

He says all the right things to be fair to him.

yeh but wot the **** does the guy even do we pay him millions and he's not done anything why haven't performances improved under fox, fox out

Seriously though he seems like he has a real grasp of how to maximise the commercial potential of us and hopefully it will translate into more success on the pitch. Shame we didn't have him 5-6 years ago.

I wonder, has anyone criticising the team and manager for the result yesterday ever had to play a whole competitive football match with a man less? Because I have, and it is exhausting, having to cover two positions when you don't have the ball, having less options when you do. They actually did fantastically well to edge the possession stats, considering.

If you lose a man with 15 mins to go you can throw caution to the wind and risk conceding because you have the energy, it's totally different when you've been doing all the hard work for a whole hour.

Ok, that was poor

What has Benteke done particularly wrong? he's had absolutely nothing since the red.

really don't think 10 men is the time for Jack, and I usually want him to get a start.

Gardner diving for a penalty, rat

Delph on NZog off. Need to go 432

100%

it was one footed from the front, there's just never any consistency.

sorry this is referring to a two footed slice challenge from Varney on Westwood that put him out for a month.

it was one footed from the front, there's just never any consistency.

mind numbingly stupid, but is that really a red card?

Last chance Charlie

It's odd to me how the red card has been rescinded, how was his reaction in any way different to what Benteke did against Spurs? Also on the same day that Fabianski had his red card upheld for taking out a forward that handled the ball past him.

He just needs minutes.

Not entirely surprising that when we aren't playing the six best teams in the league in a row we pick up some good points. Hopefully we can build on the back to back wins with some more convincing/attacking performances although losing Westwood will be a bit of a blow.

i may be biased but is there a better right back in the league?

Man City and Chelsea have a few. He's playing really well though

Jesus christ, why do we **** do this

The other team tend to try extra hard to score a goal.

Charles Insomnia needs replacing. He has offered nothing to this game. A total waste of space.

Seems to be lacking confidence in going past his player, gets up to them and then turns or just hesitates and loses possession

The problem comes when as a player that is your only party trick. He offers us zero at the moment.

please give Jack a chance long enough to show what he's got in the locker.

Love villatalk.

Spend weeks and weeks screaming for us to have more possession.

Then a game with more possession

"GET IT FORWARD QUICKER!!"

came on to post this. I'm enjoying it - but I fear losing Westwood will blunt us a little, his forward passing has been great so far.
