Ratings & Reactions: Villa v Man City

[Stevo985]

It's really simple.

One of the best Villa performances I've seen.

Ever

For all Man City's faults, I've never known their fans to have a racist reputation, in fact quite the opposite when you consider where Main Rd was.

My opinions on them are skewed by some of the comments I read on one of their forums when we last played them. Opinions from a bygone era. Probably not the best way to gauge a fan base but it was vile, vile stuff.

Fewest shots a pep side has had in over 500 games (2)

 

Lolz

Just watching MoTD, linesman flagged for offside on that Luiz goal, not that the ball went out. Don't think it was hardly looked at, cause it wasn't offside.

First on MOTD, let’s see how much credit we get from the morons in the studio.

Unai’s first win over Pep and what a way to do it…

COMPETE AND UTTER DOMINATION

-

We really need to enjoy and absorb this era of Aston Villa, the reign of Unai Emery.

Shed the negativity, the criticism, the complaints… enjoy this time and be immersed in it with complete positivity and hope…

I have never witnessed us be this good and step up to this degree… it’s even more significant in this day and age of crazy riches and finances, corruption and limitless funds… the playing field is as far from balanced as it has ever been…

Unai is doing an incredible job…

To face up teams like this, dominate them and basically destroy or dismantle them (we should’ve scored a few more goals really, we played so well but weren’t clinical) is a major statement and sign of major progress…

Brave, fearless, unfazed and stroking that ball around (and protecting it) with such ease… I have never seen a Villa team play like this and feel so much pride…

but most of all…

I am overwhelmingly grateful to Unai Emery… he is one of the very best around and a class above, humble and dignified yet so elite and accomplished.

What a time to be a Villa fan!

I like Ashley Williams, he’s always complimentary about us.

Getting married tomorrow and tried watching the game on my phone under the table at a Family meal at the venue. Absolutely rumbled myself when Bailey scored.

Previously on VillaTalk I've explained my theory that when a team like Man City come to town, you have to basically hope they underperform.

If they turn up and play as well as they can play, then they'll win. No matter what you do.

All you can do is do your best, and hope that it's good enough to capitalise on a poor performance by the opponents.

 

 

Not tonight though. That might be the best Villa performance I've ever seen. And I'm not sure anyone could have come to Villa Park tonight and got a result.

City were not below par. They weren't allowed to play. We were drilled, disciplined, clever, fit, brave, confident and coached. We were coached. Because of this man.

 

We're Aston Villa, we have one of the best managers in the world, and we're in a title race.

Might as well win the title this season. Already 35% there & would mean the next 38 years not bothering again?!

Does rumbling lead directly to non conjugation?

To a man, perfection. 

Barely a misplaced pass or poor decision made. 

I can't think of such a flawless performance I've seen before this.

Shout out to this man today… everyone was so good really. McGinn was absolutely immense and unstoppable, Bailey was brilliant…

but Bouba was also excellent and showed his class and ability, so important for us.
