  1. Don't want any of this inevitable "reality check" nonsense if we lose. As long as we give it a good go what will be will be. However, no reason why we can't go there and win. Just do what we've been doing to other teams. No fear and full focus on defensive duties.
  2. The more success we have this season the more grief we're gonna get. We're currently pissing on everyone's bonfire, have the best player in the league and generally living rent free. Good times lol
  3. Talking of bets I decided to bet Villa for the league at 100/1 ew before the Palace game. The way results were going seemed like a little bit of value. 80/1 now.
  4. He has played up front before if I recall correctly Last season when we didnt have any strikers available? I'm sure someone will confirm or deny...
  5. What a nice problem to have. Barkley should be back for Man U and yet we've coped brilliantly without him. Proper competition for places going on!
  6. Fair play to him if that's the case. I was scathing of him last season and honestly though he wasn't cut out for the Premier League but he's gone and proved me wrong and probably many others.
  7. Don't know what he was on tonight but I want some! He was an absolute nightmare for Chelsea.

    Sure he'll be on Southgate's radar when the next squad is announced. He's been an outstanding player this season.
  9. Well we certainly look very organised these days so something has clicked. We have momentum and we have a great team spirit within the squad which also counts for alot. Nothing is being left on the pitch. Great to see!
  10. It's just lazy journalism. A 5 year old could have written something better in crayons.
  11. We seem much fitter at the moment so I'm hoping we can at least match them for a hard earned point. My worry is the first 15 mins as we seem vulnerable at the start of games. We can't concede early. We should be cautious and try and hit them hard on the break.
  12. I actually think half the time opposition players are psychologically beaten when Jack has the ball in front of them. Quite often I see them deflated and making no attempt to win the ball and just go into Jack out of pure desperation
  13. He's steadily getting better as the season goes on. That injury really done him in I think. If he can just add a few goals to his season now. You can see he's desperate to score one but isn't playing as high up the pitch this season.
  14. Having seen the replays a few times now I think it's fairly obvious Mings caught the back of Zahas leg on purpose. Wasn't that bat but obviously retaliated for Zahas push or punch whatever it was. It's all a bit pathetic really but that's football! Zaha has an awful attitude so no wonder he hasn't progresed his career.
  15. In my opinion Mings will be straight back in the team after his suspension. Done nothing to deserve being dropped and a key player.

  17. I think all villa fans were very concerned about our subs but its great how they've stepped up when needed.
  18. The second yellow was silly but the first was a bit unlucky. For that reason a soft sending off really. What annoyed me is that Milojevic should have got a second yellow for his cynical tackle in the second half. No different from Mings one on Zaha! I'm glad he's got a "nasty" streak in him because you need that in a team.
  19. Got to be worth 50m on current form! You just feel like it's impossible to score against him. I swear he must be a Jedi.
  20. Sick passing today. Incredible vision for that pass to Ollie. Best player in the prem by some margin at the moment.
  21. He was so good today that his work almost goes unnoticed. So slick and unassuming. He was hoovering up everything.
  22. Tackling was first class today. No one could get past him. Another MOTM contender.
  23. Should really have put that Grealish chance away... more of a bad miss for me rather than unlucky but apart from that outstanding and deserved MOTM! He's working so hard on and off the ball.
  24. Indeed and its maybe that previous torrid seasons have made some fans overly paranoid and hyper critical. I think we've all felt like that at times but you have to overcome it with some logical rational thinking!
