I'd forgotten what winning felt like!

[packoman]

Well we won and played some good stuff, but not looking forward to the blues game.

Motm Walker, great debut.

[dudevillaisnice]

Walker - 9/10

Great player - scored one and set the rhythm for the last one for Stan..

Good Win, still a couple of problems with giving silly fouls away etc.. but a Win is a Win.

[Mantis]

Yay, we won!

Haven't seen the game but it sounds like Walker had a cracker.

[Designer1]

Huffed and puffed but at least It's a win. Good debut from walker.

[Jez]

Pft only against a shit Sheff Utd team :wink:

Well done Villa, hopefully a kick on but wont know for sure until after a few more games...

[AshVilla]

Scrappy peformance against a struggling championship side.

Will need to defend alot better if were to get anything from the blose game.

[Nigel]

Can we buy Walker now please!

[Gringo]

MOTM Brad - 3 important saves.

[kingysilvers]

Walker MOTM, good scoreline that masks another poor performance.

[Brumstopdogs]

Pleased with the win. Lots to improve on though.

Good game:

Walker

Bannan

Petrov

Bad game:

Cuellar

Young

We're through which is the main thing in the cup!

[kiddybloke]

never EVER a pen and a harsh sending off but young gave him an excuse to give him his marching orders.

Good result, performance ok.

[TheWizzler]

still after this match performance i think we will struggle against the scum still giving away really cheap possesion and i think we can thank our lucky stars it was sheffield utd we were playing because if that were a prem team we would have lost that match but winning is still great don't get me wrong.

[Stevo985]

Good performance. Still some dodgy moments in there, can see the players still have a tendency to panic.

Spoilt by the sending off of Young, harsh I though, but his fault for making a stupid challenge (or Houllier's fault if you believe the match thread *rolly eyes*)

MOTM, Walker. great debut. Looks a player.

[pacbuddies]

3 yellow cards and one red. Our disciplinary record is shit and we are going to have suspension after suspension to deal with over the next few months.

[The_Steve]

Good debut by Walker, great build up for the final goal. Pity that despite the referee's best efforts we still won, Houllier made his subs at the right time, we were under the kosh for a little bit we hung on. League form goes out the window in the FA Cup so pleased with going into the next round, could give the lads a lift.

[hoaxn]

Young banned for the derby? Bad game for him.

Not a great performance. Struggled for anything against a very poor SU team.

[TheTransferWindow]

Walker looks like a real attacking fullback. He had some shaky moments defensively, so I don't know how he'll do against the better teams in the Premier League, but he'll be a weapon at home when we need to find a way to break down teams.

[villatillidie1980]

Potential bannana skin, fortunately avoided, although ash defo tried to step on it!!

As has been said, a win is a win!!
