Aston Villa (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

Thought we were comfortably second best all night to be honest, Rogers has had a great season but was dealt with tonight by Gvardiaol.

Young left back kid for city looked very good, was a bit surprised grealish and foden didn't come on as I thought you lost a bit of momentum post 70 minutes but suppose pep's change won him the game.

Can't work out if we were leggy, too negative or just comfortably out footballed tonight. Probably a combination of all 3.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Am I the only one here who thinks it was a pen?

I didn't think it was a penalty, Dias clearly got a touch on the ball.

To be honest, Even without the touch I still didn't think it was a penalty as Ramsey stopped his run and waited for the contact, Dias stopped and never as much as stuck a leg out.

The next thing is, The referee was in a good position and never gave it, It's very rare you see the referee sent to the monitor for something like that...

Ridiculous decision imo

Played well overall I thought, kept plugging away and got the goal in the end. Real hard work from everyone on the pitch today. Well done lads.

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

Not sure if my stream cut out and I missed it, but did anyone catch Morgan Rogers completely dominating our team? I assume it must’ve happened as everyone in the pre-match thread assured us it would

Thought it was a strange team Emery picked. I was delighted to see McGinn on the bench.

I like Prince William but he can HAVE IT!

Fake 'Prince of Wales' ..supports England...

Retirement Villa 2-1 Aston Villa

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Boring, time wasting Brummie twats got what they deserved.
Martinez is worse than what Tim Howard used to be like at Everton.
The only disappointment was scoring a little too late to be able to see Villa get a goal kick and to see how quickly Martinez took to retrieve the ball and play it.

The early leavers missed the winner..

Never leave early

Greta win! Omar superb today

And I’m starting to turn my thoughts that Doku never going to be good enough, he have now made 2 great subs and got us 6 points on them and the assist he did today was kdb class,

Really important win

He comes on, shows his explosive pace and lays on a superb pass which gets us the win. Pep will never let him go. Such a quality player. Still young though. We have 2 legends leaving. Doku will become increasingly important.

I like his Mrs more

Who's Mrs More ?

Just wondering does anyone know if Marcus Rashford hit the post after 17 seconds? Ratboy hasn't mentioned it.

He did, pretty shit really shooting wide from there

I was happy to see Digne kept on so long as Maatsen is in good form, and Digne had a shocker

 

[deano ou812]

Roy Keane just said "Marcus Rashford can be unstoppable"...

Erm OK, That's why a team sitting in 14th and playing Rasmus Hojlund up front have fucked him off on loan.

Think he means when he runs he can’t stop as his brains are in his feet..

 

[Brewster's millions]

It was meant as a bit of a gag, not a peer reviewed scientific paper :-(

We’re all scholars on here mate.

Fair and balanced summary.

I think it's a 50/50 but fuck knows why he's being sent to the screen to have a look. If the on field ref gives it so be it but come fucking on

Seemed like Emery was set up for a draw tonight throught the game really, I think he was happy enough to try take a point and battle it out in the last 4 games.

Kicking the can down the road basically.

I'm surprised to be honest especially with the way Villa have been playing lately they've been incredibly good.

Still laughing at the early leavers.
