  1. Should be a piece of piss to pass out from the back around Costa and beat the press, just ignore the noise and keep playing
  2. Too slow on and off the ball. Kills us against a good pressing team.
  3. We could get a tie in the arse end of Armenia and it would probably still be nigh on impossible to get an away ticket.
  4. 2024 Europa League final is in Dublin. Nice.
  5. Man City game at the weekend got me thinking about Gerrard and the last game of the season when they won the league against us. At the time i was devastated we threw away the chance to stop Grealish and co from winning the league. Now looking back, can you imagine us holding on and giving Liverpool the title. Even after us sacking him this season, he would always look back on how he won Liverpool the league via our club...eww makes me feel violated he would have. Liverpool fans would be insufferable about it too.
  6. According to Tyler some villa fans were applauding him. Jesus wept if thats true
  7. He was a cheating word removed with us, we just turned a blind eye to it
  8. I found that 2007-2009 side a really hard watch. We played some awful stuff, but it was the most memorable team in my lifetime because it had great moments. 2008/2009 (the big tilt the top 4 season) my memory is us just being awful a lot of the time and just winning. - Portsmouth away Heskey , they absolutely battered us for an hour then they get a man sent off and batter us even more! Saw it out somehow. - Hull City away around Xmas, we were crap... not a hope of scoring and Ashley Young sticks a cross in on a rare break in the last min and defender scores an own goal somehow. - Everton (the Ashley Young last min goal (3-2)) camped in our half for the whole game, they had about 3 off the line, hit the bar and we nick it. That winner is probably the greatest moment ive experienced as a villa fan. - Sunderland away, got dominated we're 1-0 down, Milner scores one with his hand/shoulder on the counter and then we get a penalty for a foul outside the box on another counter and win 2-1 after Young got sent off. Admittedly, the buzz of winning games in that way (and staying up there in the top 4 hunt) was unbelievable. Away days were insane. It kind of made me think there was something a bit magical about O'Neil how we pulled victories off. But the narrative that we blew it with the Heskey signing and the UEFA Cup thing (MON says we got tired) is false imo. The luck just ran out. Well luck is a bit harsh as it was incredibly resilient side but quality wise we were nowhere near good enough throughout the season, we had some brilliant counter attacking players, Ashley Young was phenomenal and we were great at set pieces but they weren't a good footballing team.
  9. He's our only player with pace and genuine ball carrying ability. Even though things weren't coming off his threat was enough to pin the wolves left side back and helped us in that 2nd half. No other bastard would have been able to get onto that pass from Ings anyway.
  10. I know we are **** shite but the crowd roaring at Digne because he didn't swing it in with no one in the box shows how toxic and thick our fanbase are. Booing at half time too. Bunch of flappers.
  11. Playing Cash further forward only exposes him further for the woeful footballer he is.
  12. He's the death of me on here. Whatever 11 he picks, formation he plays, player he signs or sells i have no argument. He could decide to flog Kamara and i'd just go with it.
  13. Bloody hell, you'd be telling the opposition left back to start thinking about life after football.
