JulieB Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Watched most of the game in a bar in Newcastle as the only Villa fan. Jumped up & screamed when Clark scored at the end, which prompted a round of applause from the Toon Army awaiting the Wigan game. Gutsy performance, which looked a million miles away from Man City debacle. Someone as Sky+ the game for me because I missed most of the 1st half so can't give MOTM, however moment of the match has to be Randy Lerner's dive on Faulkner, that was priceless!

Harry Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 From watching the foul by Essien, forget yellow that was a straight red IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Just read the last 4 or 5 pages of the Chelsea forum match thread...made me http://forums.cfcnet.co.uk/index.php?/topic/49123-live-match-thread-chelsea-v-aston-villa/page__st__465 That actually could have been the script of a very bad porno flick (or so I have been told).

The_Rev Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I had to leave for work almost immediately after the final whistle, I have just got back now so I havent really had time to see the goals again until I just saw them online. The little shimmy from Albrighton to take Sturridge out of the game before dropping that delightful ball into the Chelsea six yard box was a moment of pure class, wasnt it?

villa4europe Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 only seen it 2/3 times and didnt look for it (too busy trying to work out if clark did cech with the eyes making him think he'd go across goal before brilliantly placing it) is it going in if clark doesnt get there?

Still don't understand how Clark was able to wander in there and score so easily. When the ball came in EVERYONE but Clark just froze. Just goes to show you should always play by the whistle.

beasley14 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Played well and looked more dangerous. Good spirit to fight back too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 they all seemed to be looking at heskey and focusing more on getting him caught offside than marking clark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b6bloke Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Apart from the penalty part I like this from Graham Poll Mason, who despite getting two penalties right in the six-goal Chelsea v Aston Villa thriller, still managed to book nine men when there was not a bad tackle. The goals masked his display but for Villa to have seven yellow cards when only giving away 11 free-kicks tells its own tale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And lets remind ourselves of who polices referees....oh yes that would be referees. Villa are not a dirty side and they had seven players booked in what was not a dirty game?

The_Rev Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 True, but every Villa goal came immediately after an Essien foul, so he got his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alienvillan Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Great result, but if we hadn't of sat back and bottled it we would have been coming away with 3 points... I agree with this. The first half and the beginning of the second was fantastic, real fighting spirit. After Heskey scored it was mayday, mayday, mayday for the next 40 mins, headless chicken stuff. But Friedel was amazing. Of course Chelsea scored, eventually, twice. Disappointed once again. But then the fighting spirit came back. Where the hell was it from 48th to 91st minute? We still have a huge problem there. Three games in one. Happy and angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
