Ratings & Reactions: Derby v Villa

[Demitri_C]

Wow...just wow. That was a complete 90 minuet performance. I would put that up as the best away win since we went Dow now. Simply superb.

cinor bolaise and Chester were great. Nyland was good as well today. It was simply a masterpiece watching that game.

Brilliant. Well done, Villa, well done Dean Smith. 3 points off the playoff pieces. Dare I say we are there or thereabouts?

Another decent ref today as well, which is always a pleasant surprise in this division.

The improvements are clear to see. 3 wins in 5 games. Great start to the Dean Smith reign. Played well. Plenty of chances and eventually took them. Hoofball consigned to the scrapheap thankfully

[Lerner's Driver]

Play like that and we are going up. At last, we have a team that tries and succeeds in dominating opponents. Most of that second half was truly beautiful to watch.

[Keener window-cleaner]

What a mind blowing second half! Did they even have the ball??!!

[pacbuddies]

Great win. This moves us a few places and 3 points closer to the title. My 25/1 bet is looking better each game now. Bring on the scum.

[VillanousOne]

we responded to a second half team talk by not playing even worse and giving up.

McGinn is one of the best signings in years

That was the best away performance i have seen from us in a decade!

Hamstrung by a Kodjia with too much to prove and Adomah who is simply off the pace we still played better in the first half.  Enter Elmo and Bolasie and we simply ran over them.

Kudos has to be given to Nyland who was a different animal tonight, a much stronger showing with confident shouts in patrolling his area,gave the defence the solidity it needed;  The new keeping coach deserves his beer.

Im genuinely excited how far this team can go once we build a head of steam.

I know you shouldnt read into one result like this, but it has been building since the first game.

[Robtaylor200]

Fantastic result, so wasteful, but we made the chances. On another day it could have been 6 or more

Small heath up next, cant wait

Time to get out the Rum

 

[Mister_a]

So, after about 5 years we finally click and batter a team

[Dave-R]

Brilliant result against an inform derby.

[joshharris12]

Best performance in 5 years 

[Stockport_Villain]

That was an absolute pleasure to watch. Thanks Dean for making your players believe they are good enough and for getting them to play your way. Can’t wait for SHA.
