Aston Villa (H) Post Match Thread

Last time i sat in 308 it was for the Sergio goal.Thought it was all over then but boy did i think it was all over on Sunday.Deja vu only difference was the sausage rolls are lovely now.
Lots of misty eyed older blues around me.We had been there before and come through because the boys in blue never give in.
 



Wish I understood what he was saying but love the passion

Best six minutes of football we’ve played all season. It was just full on.
Gundo scored two and didn’t waste a single pass. Raheem took on his man on the outside causing panic, but I don’t think any of us can overstate how immense Zinc was in getting the whole team’s tempo up. And he didn’t waste a ball either. He delivered an end product when it was most needed.

Love them all. But really thrilled for Zinc.

I could have snogged Gundogan’s face off at full time
 
many but i can’t still process and wondering how you all handled your emotions inside the stadium . I sstill can’t believe what just happened.
inside the stadium we stayed with the team at 2 0 despite being flat but when the first went in the belief came back the third was bedlam my 13 year old grandson and 11 year old were hugging total strangers and the regulars around us,he said the last 15 miniutes was the best match hes ever been to.thank you city for making it worthwhile.but please dont do to me again
 
One thing that struck me was Villa's time-wasting after 15 minutes. They played like they had something more than a PL match to defend & win.

Evidently it was Gerrard doing all he could to help the Dippers. Aside from 2-legged away ties or relegation/promotion/title games, I've never seen a team time-wasting so early when there was nothing to gain or lose for them.
 
Finally calmed down. What a comeback again from City.
Dreadful 1st half performance and changes needed to be made at HT.
Zinny showed pace and ambition down the left, straight from the restart, and that seemed to lift us
Gundo got in the right positions and the crosses came in
Seriously, we need a GK who can actually make some big saves now and again, Ederson has been really poor this season and again yesterday, had zip all to do and still couldn't make a save....his non-effort save when Watkins was through before their 2nd was baffling.
My three players of the season...KDB Rodri and Walker (almost Laporte for staying fit and being there all the time and keeping the defence together)
I've had it with this season, thought 18/19 was about as bad as it could get in terms of nerves/stress etc but this was right up there as well.
Time to refresh the batteries, lower the stress levels and enjoy our 6th PL title....6th...
