Imagine my surprise, yet it doesn't seem to get much of a mention...

Since Feb they have played 21 games in all competitions.

They have lost 9 and drawn 2 - the two draws came in a 0-0 at Everton and a fortunate 1-1 draw at home to Burnley.

They have won ten, including a late 3-2 win at home to a relegation threatened West Ham and an opening 4-3 at home to Leeds.

Hardly the stuff of legend.

Impossible, I thought they were in competition with the Centurions and Invincibles ??
 
Oh yes I would. I could not play for U****d, Liverpool, Celtic and England.
Yes you would. The phone goes now, Neil Lennon on the phone. “Peoffrey you fucker, get off bluemoon. I want to pay you ten grand a week to play for Celtic. You’ll have a lovely house just outside Glasgow, we’ll get you as fit as fuck and then you’ll play in front of 60,000 every week.”

“Nah, my principles won’t allow it.”
 
They've been absolutely shit since the restart, if not sooner. Credit where it's due they were playing incredible and built an insurmountable lead early last year. But they're getting hit with regression to the norm (and their luck has run out) and they've been pretty poor over the last few months.
 
Villa set out their plan and stuck to it, and on another day could (and should) have had 10. They were easily the better team and tore Liverpools defence apart.

But.. this was a very very rare day in which ref decisions went against the scousers. On a "normal day" that Salah dive would have been given as a pen, and at least one Villa goal (free kick one comes to mind) would have been flagged offside (incorrectly in my op as nowt was wrong with it). But given they've had favourable decisions for a while now, that would have put them at 1-1 (assuming they bag the pen) and could have pushed on from there.

We'll see if it continues but its the scouse Derby next and I'd be shocked if there were no debatable decisions that were beneficial to them (one game does not a season make)
Or that one word that scares the shit out of Pep...complacency.
Sometimes man dyke strolls around at the back thinking hes God and nobody should dare challenge him.
Villa did and got everything they deserved

It started before the lockdown.

Atlético Madrid had just beaten them, and Watford thumped them 3-0.

Indeed.. and since yesterday (what with the Red Filth's 1-6 and all!) it's been nothing but 'Guffaw-guffaw! Chuckle-chortle!' and so on from me..
