The fans were brilliant, one of the best away days I have had anyway.
I still haven't got my voice back.
I've lost my voice as well "Sheffield's a shit-hole, I want to go hooome" - fantastic away support yet again. Over 5,000 Villa, brilliant!
As for the game - first things first - WE WON! 8) :shock: Although despite three quality goals I thought our overall collective performance was still pretty poor today. Whereas I left Chelsea thinking "could that be our turning point?" I most definitely didn't do that today. We are still very much in the shit, but this was nice light relief in a season so far of misery. I also found it very telling that despite us winning some people were still singing anti-Houllier songs - that shows the strength of feeling in my opinion.
Kyle Walker - sign him up, now! Couple of defensive mistakes maybe but he really was excellent. Powerful, quick, technically good, can clearly play composed football. This is exactly what we've needed for YEARS in the full back position. I know he plays on the other side but Walker's performance today just highlights even further how **** SHIT Warnock is.
Super Marc - a future England regular, make no mistake about it. This boy is already class and he's still no way near even being the finished article. The most exciting prospect I can remember at Villa for a long time. Great finish today and was always a massive threat.
Ashley Young - he can leave as far as i'm concerned. I've never rated him as much as most on here and I honestly think if we could get £15million for him it would be good business. He always loses the ball, he doesn't look interested anymore, he's so predictable it is untrue and basically I think he's massively over-hyped. He's really not that good in my opinion. Albrighton is better.
Pires - another who can be booted out of the club faster than you can say "va va voom". There's nothing to say that hasn't already been said - he's been a catastrophic signing.
