o'lbs

He was suffering from a virus and looked heavy legged then picked up the caution. Cappello shouldn't have started him imo

the swap players might not agree terms at villa. or like the city

we let barry go for 12 and I thought we could of strung them out for 20m.

Then they paid 24m for joeleon lescott which was well over the odds, and paid stupid money for de jonk.

When Dwight Yorke went for 12m the going rate was about 17m

we need to hold out for the big big money. We know they've got it.

I'd like Ireland, but I want at least 25m for milner.

we can't let him go ...........unless they totally blow us out the water say £40m

That was one of the worst games i've ever seen. Passing was crap and we seemed to dwell on the ball then give it away. Worst culprit was Cuellar who was atrocious. So was Downing, he's just an expensive peter whittingham.

First half I a couple of the blues players nearly came to blows. Carr and someone else.

lucky for us Friedel was magnificent and so was Gabby even tho they were getting physical with him all match. The last 10 mins the atmosphere was brilliant.

Stonewall pen for me even tho I was in the north stand.

4th place is up for grabs now!

I think it will be a draw. I imagine we will come flying out the blocks. We'll be like caged tigers after the wembley fiascio.

Thank phuck arteta is injured (said on bbc)

I don't see O'Neill changing anything I really think we need a moment of brilliance from someone just to lift the whole place. Good luck lads.

I reckon if we're going to win we'll do it the usual Villa way ie. the hard way ie. on pens

lampard sends the vital spot kick into orbit que pitch invasion and intense euphoria

I wasn't that bothered before but all the crap going round since saturday im now buzzing my tits off, I secured my two tkts today and there's no way in hell Chelsea will be allowed to walk all over us again, this is the biggest match for years and I can't wait now. bring on the chavs

we should get a shirt sponsor that pays money. my season ticket has gone up 50 quid

i am a bit underwhelmed because of the opposition and what happened in the league cup final, and cos it's only a semi final it's a long long way to go and a lot of hassle and cash.

there's no way we'd get doyle cheap unless wolves went down.

I'd bring in bellemey and keane. but not for 15m a max of 12m for both.

there's not that many names that spring to mind apart from these two.

well it was a physical battle. doyle was only small but he mix's it with our heavy weight centre halves brilliantly.

it was too physical a game for pussy's like stuart downing, i was glad when he went off maybe sidwell should of started.

we let in stupid soft goals. at 1-0 i thought we were gonna get 10.

it's frustrating game. but derbys can end up like this.

I really think we can tear wolfs a new ársehole.

we should be buzzing after our last few games, this is a game for our 3 creative players Milner Downing and Young to run riot.

they don't have much that can hurt us. Jarvis seems to get a few mentions latley but there's nothing we should be scared of.

I want to see a high tempo start, bombing down the wings and shoot on sight.

the fa cup is only another 2 games max so there's no reason why we can't still achieve both.

Cuellar was atrocious. so was the wembley pitch, it looked water logged down the one side.

I think it's a crap stadium. Why didn't they build a roof that you could close in the bad weather like the millenium stadium.

I thought our best players were Petrov, Warnock and Heskey.

2nd half Valencia proved he's not the new danny wallace.

wasn't just the ref who was a total arse gravey. every decision the linesmen on both touchlines waited for the ref to point before raising their flag in agreement.

not getting that vital first decision obviously affected us psychologically.

Milner had an absolute mare, everytime he had possession he squandered it. and the best chance fell to him so I knew it wouldn't go in (to be fair he did dig it out for himself)

Cuellar was the best player last night no one else had any urgency. We looked better 11 against 11 than when nani got sent off.

It was just bad luck that Delph went off then Petrov got injured.

Had to applaud Wayne Rooney when he chased Ashley Young the length of the pitch and ended up in the right back position where he slide tackled Young put the ball out and left Ash on his árse.

On the whole a frustrating game. I think we showed them too much respect.

it's a good point but we didnt play well at all. thought Bentley was brilliant, how i wish we had him.

man utd are back in form. we'll do well to get another 0-0 draw. maybe we can kick rooney all over the pitch so he's injured for the final?

I've got more respect for people who support birmingham city than people born and bred in birmingham who support manchester.

Heskey had a good game, all the officials were shit. we had enough chances to win and they looked a bit subdued. I enjoyed the momment when Delph mugged Fabregas.

Wenger must have been watching a different game we never played any long balls

Milner is more like Zidane.

Milner is the new Zidane.

felt suicidal at 2-0 down.

was so nervous all the way thru.

Guzan was decidedly dicky.

Cuellar started terrible but got stronger

What a finish by Ashley Young.

I feel emotionally drained, but still buzzing

well we went there got an away goal and kept a clean sheet. and thats what you want. fans were fantastic, we should of got 3 or 4.

Now lets finish the job.

Milner was terrible. he's been brought back down to earth thinks he's zidane or something. Ashley Young was total gash aswell who the phuck does he think he is giving everyone looks of disgust when he doesn't get it perfect into his stride. then goes and looses it cheap blatent dive in front of the referree.

the only one who was any good was stephen warnock who was excellent in possession (apart from the air shot when petrov gave him no warning)and tackling and bravery.

song should of walked for persistant fowling. but it was 88mins and wouldn't have made much difference.

I hope we bottle up the anger shake it up and bit then uncork it against liverpool on tue.
