Caught the highlights. How in the **** was that ever given as a penalty? VAR was actually used properly tonight. The standard of refereeing is abysmal.

yet 21 VTers give him a vote of very good !!!

Loved hearing the new version of ‘Dr Tony went to Rome” tonight. I wasn’t there but it sounded something like

Nas Sawiris went to Spain, in a battered mini, brought us back a manager, super Unai Emery

You know good times are here when new songs are created.

This f***ing team! Just making my way home from the pub. There was only the three of us Villa there, but it was flipping mental. 

[KillieVillain]

I'm really worried that our poor goal difference could cost us a Champions League place !

Coming multiple times every three days is hard work at my age

No MOTD tonight, how annoying.

If it was on, then there was only one match to show. The super mid-table battle to a 0-0 draw of Boehlys boys against Klopps kloggers. 

[Hornso]

Always rated VAR…

It takes a lot of practise, and cod liver oil capsules.

I gave the ref a very good because he got the red card decision correct, gave fouls correctly for both sides and when he made a mistake with the Leicester penalty he checked it out, realised his mistake and immediately corrected it.  That’s good refereeing.

I voted "good" because at least he corrected himself, see plenty who won't or don't.

Referee was good by this year's standards

Emery  should change his name to Diamond

Here's the official evaluation from just north of the 49th 

Martínez: 7 Overall good ... not that busy, not much he could do about Barnes's goal
Young: 6 Slowing down, a specialist in the dark arts.
Konsa: 7 Did everything he was asked of
Mings:7+ Imperious again
Moreno: 8+ My real potm, but gave it to Traoré anyway
Bailey: 6 Weakest link on (sadly not just) today's performance
McGinn: 7+ Good solid game
Luiz: 7 Maybe not his strongest game, but was in the mix all the time
Ramsey: 6+ I prefer to see Ramsey on the left
Buendía: 7 Beautiful assist
Watkins: 7+ Great first half and goal. Seem to go missing in the second half ... woke up in the last five minutes

Durán: N/A
Chambers: N/A
Traoré: 10 Did hardly bugger all, only had one good kick of the ball.
Digne: N/A

If anyone disagrees ... they can do their own evaluation.

VAR corrected his mistake....then he watched it 6 times, 6 times, something i could see after watching it once.

it's very rare a ref sticks with his original decision when told to go to the pitch side monitor.

Missed the game, can someone give me a little run down? @fruitvilla review was good, but what was the story arc? Did we deserve it?

[AntrimBlack]

The Unai Emery stand. 

You heard it here first.

[TheAuthority]

I keep watching the replay from 85 mins until the end.

My balls ache

[GlobalVillan]

Massive. As big as the Chelsea win for different reasons. Atmosphere in the away end was absolutely bouncing!

Short answer yes (I thought so)

But only just ...could have gone either way.
We outplayed them but looked susceptible on the counter.
