Frustrating the way he gave the penalty away at such a crucial period in the match and then he misses the chance to redeem himself.

Low in confidence and making bad decisions at the wrong time.

I thought he was partly at fault for the second goal the way he went down with the speed of a sloth.

The fourth goal as well looked awful and it certainly looked a shot that should have been saved.

Get rid.

When you finally cave in and change the batteries in the TV remote, oh my. 

The home match should be quite an occasion - really hoping we can get some kind of lead to take into the 2nd leg.

Expect it to be a close match though and think both teams will score. UTV!

For those wanting to watch this in the Lower Grounds for free.

Get in quick!

Now sold out!

Were any of those Spurs

No, Spurs never did win it. However, they did create a record of their own - their biggest ever defeat!

Against Fulham, the boss recorded his 50th Premier League fixture in charge of the claret and blues, setting a new club record for success at that milestone.

Recording 30 wins, eight draws and 12 defeats, Emery has a 60% win percentage which sees him record five more wins and nine more points than any other Villa manager after 50 league games.

He could have cleared the ball towards the sideline instead of poking it back into the middle.

Yeah agree. Put it out of touch, whack it up the field but to put it where he did was really poor and almost cost us a point.

Why is it more than the capped bus fares of £2 a trip?

If you pick the right day you might have Chris Heck on there with you!

Strange, Showing availability on mine but then says I don't meet criteria when selected? 

None of the ticket criteria set was for season ticket holders to buy extra tickets.

I'm a claret member (so meet the current criteria) and normal tickets are definitely showing as sold out.

Your options are Lower Grounds or Terrace View I reckon.

That's the 2nd leg 

Good point - so it is!

The first leg is sold out I believe apart from maybe Terrace View or Lower Grounds you might stand a chance.

Based on pure guesswork I reckon Spurs will win 3 ,draw 1 and lose 2 of their remaining matches and will end up on 70 pts and that will be the key number of pts to beat or match if we have a better goal difference.

The lad has the ability and hopefully he'll improve as it is his first season in the premier league and he wouldn't be the first player to take some time to adapt.

However, he does feel like a passenger in the games too often so I'm sure that is something Unai will be working on with him.
