Ratings & Reactions: Brighton v Villa

[Osirus]

Coming from behind away from home to win, when was the last time we did that?

Unbelievable what Emery has been able to do in about 10 days, we look a different, more resilient side.

Up to 12th, 6 weeks break to coach this team properly.

We might be in for a good season here boys, UTV, EMERY IS GOD

Just look at how the players are after that. There was none of that before Emery came. 1st away win of the season. 

100% this. Seeing the back five hug like that gave me feelings in places five men hugging don't normally give me feelings.

[Nigel]

That was some display of the dark arts there!

[Johnnyp]

Buendia was immense today. Elite players respond to elite coaching. Who knew. 

[TheMightyVillans]

Super nervous watching those stoppage time minutes but we were actually pretty comfortable for most of it... Think we need to be better at launching counters though. Hopefully the preseason ahead will help with that.

Game Management!

That's been the difference since Emery arrived.

[Hank Scorpio]

Would never have won that under Gerrard would we. Different level of game management

That 8 mins injury time = the super John McGinn show, welcome back big John!

We basically put the ball between his arse cheeks and he held it there for 8 mins

We deserved the win. Brighton were shit, they only managed two yellow cards FFS. Amateurs! 

[CVByrne]

Konsa edges Kamara for motm

• Ings
• Very Good
• Shit(if it was an option)

On another note, I'd take progression in the league over a cup run everyday. Back to back league wins and impressively done, happy days.

I gave MOTM to Martinez for entertainment value, great 3 points. OK so plenty of time wasting but we did whatever was needed to win the game. We have always been too nice. At the end of the day the papers will show 2.1 Villa  18 points on the board

Get in

Yet another diabolical refereeing performance. How they are not accountable is an absolute joke. He wants sacking. And his blind as a bat linesmen!

Has everyone who had a meltdown when we were 1 down, calmed down now? 

In fairness, a goal down under a minute due to more errors can provoke negative thoughts

[ChicagoVillan1983]

Bit of a smash and grab and I’ll fookin take it!

[Beastmix]

Steely performance, right there.

We'd have crumbled under every other manager we've had in the past decade. Whole team looked defensively well-drilled.

MENTALITY - That is what we showed today…. We were under so much pressure but the mentality and organisation we showed was impressive to see the win out. how it feels to be 12th heading into the WC break
