I like the fact that we aren't the soft touch that we've been for too long. The Keane effect seems to be evident.

Delighted as I am - and our defence was rock solid - we do need to pass the ball better - looking forward to Grealish feeding Bentekke ....... Yep, very tidy midfield today, and much better on the season in general, but not enough attacking impetus up the middle of the pitch.

Marc Overmars is quoted as saying Ajax almost sold Daley Blind to Villa two year ago...

Some on RAWK are clear headed enough to give us credit where it's due. But some on there seem to really despise us, we've become somewhat of a bogey team for them.

Balotelli looked poor, tbh. Ricky Lambert is their new Charlie Adam. One big season at a smaller club, and now he sucks.

I did notice that as soon as Sanchez came on the midfield started to lose it's shape and we looked a bit wobbly, with other players trying to tell him where to move, etc. Risky move by Lambert there, because Westwood was doing fine in that role.

Looking into what?

Don't get so excited about one game. Teams win some games in this league, and they lose some too. Sometimes they draw. Just because the announcer is praising Villa, doesn't mean we are that good. Just kidding, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Incredible team win, best Villa midfield performance in a long time, disciplined and mature, and absolutely oppressive defending. Team spirit is sky high, and to think our two best players weren't even on the bench. 2nd place, roll on Villa!

So far so good...they're gonna coming flying at us now though, with Sterling probably coming on straight away.

haha

You sure about that?

Just gets worse for the NFL...cannot see Goodell surviving through all of this. He just might want to GTFO anyway. Step right up, Condoleeza Rice. A female commish would be a PR coup for the league right now.

Just saw on CNN some dippy actress who is promoting the fact that she gives to charity and said this: "Impacting someone you don't know is such a next-level karma of paying it forward."

What do they get up to at the Lace Market?

Does Earl Grey tea get better when it's aged 12 years?

The whitest song of all time^^^

I see your Montell Jordan, and raise you

I snuck in some peppermint schnapps to put in your diet coke

It's shame we are out of the league cup, cuz it would have given him some playing time, which he desperately needs

Amazing what Merson did for that team, a true cut above

James Brown stole her moves!
