With some sadness the season draws to an end. It marks one of the oddest, most difficult, yet in many ways most rewarding chapters of our long history. By August football will likely look like it usually has with grounds packed again. But the past 12+ months has been hard on everyone, aside from the game we love. Hopefully we close this season with an optimistic eye to all things Villa but to everyone personally and professionally. To everyone and your families have a wonderful last game, and a positive path in your lives moving forward.

Unchanged as expected. Davis back on the bench.
-
Great to see Carney on the bench despite the game tomorrow, sure he can be o.k for 5 minutes at the end.
-
Let's fuck 'em up.
We'll lose won't we.
Oh well, let's fuck 'em up!!!!
-
Liking no Kante for them, at his best it's like an extra player in midfield for them just like Milner used to be for us.
Think we can get ratting and really disrupt the Jorginho-Kovacic combination there.
Playing a 3-5-2 by looks of it, Werner and Pulisic upfront so need to make sure we don't park the back 4 too high up the pitch.
-
Chelsea: Mendy, James, Thiago Silva, Rudiger, Azpilicueta, Kovacic, Jorginho, Chilwell, Pulisic, Mount, Werner.
Substitutes: Arrizabalaga, Alonso, Christensen, Zouma, Giroud, Hudson-Odoi, Ziyech, Gilmour, Havertz.

That bench is just bizarre. One day we will have a bench like that

it is almost a waste

Abraham not on bench again

That bench is just bizarre. One day we will have a bench like that
At least they can only use 3 subs this time, 5 killed us last season as I remember they put on Giroud and Pulisic on the hour mark and both scored within about 5 minutes of that.
-
I see Stuart Atwell is the referee every chance of a balls up hope its not us
-
Win please.
-
Smash Chelsea into next week please.
That’s all.

Great Post TV. Best wishes. UTV

It's great to see there isn't a tarp in sight at Villa Park vs the monstrosity that was Totteham last week shoving fans to the upper tiers so they could keep all their sponsorship on display. Showed exactly where their loyalties lay as a club.
-
Similar display to last time, please.
-

The tarps from VP went into skips last week. I did stop the van and ask if I could have one but got no joy.
-
Shame Chelsea have so much to play for today, would have preferred them trying to keep injury free for the CL final.
That said, a win today would be both fantastic and hilarious. Go get 'em, boys!
-
is it on the telly?
-
Sky
-
found it, thanks!
-
Come on Villa, let's do these!
-
sky sports action for anyone that's looking.
-
Hairs up on my arms hearing the Villa fans singing.
-
Come on boys, let's fuck these fuckers.
-
The fans sound great. Good noise coming through. C’mon Villa. Would love to see a great game with Chuk coming on to get a winner.
-
We can indeed hear you singing boys and girls. And you sound brilliant!
-
Matt Targett the first player to be an ever present in the Villa side since Stewart Downing.
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.
-
Fucking Hinchcliffe again.
-
Lots of boos for taking the knee I'm afraid.
-
Lots of boos for taking the knee I'm afraid.
Racist c*nts. Don’t be like Chelsea fans. It’s a really ugly look.
-
Lots of boos for taking the knee I'm afraid.
What is wrong with some people.
-
Such a strange thing to boo. The mind boggles. Fuck em. I'd throw them out.
Come on Villa!
-
It has been nine years since we won our last game of the regular league season.
-
It has been nine years since we won our last game of the regular league season.
vs Liverpool?
-
It has been nine years since we won our last game of the regular league season.
10 no, mate?
-
I must admit I didn't notice the boos.
-
It has been nine years since we won our last game of the regular league season.
10 no, mate?
In that case I must have misheard.
-
How can the ref not even see that on McGinn as a foul? That was a clear yellow card.
-
Chelsea’s No. 5 shot by the club sniper.
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.
So they are 'twats' for opposing supporting a Marxist group intent on anarchy?
-
Very even start and very positive by us. We’ve not let them settle which is encouraging.
-
How can the ref not even see that on McGinn as a foul? That was a clear yellow card.
yep - clear booking
-
Kovacic goes in high, no talking.
Jack nudges Jorginho who goes down like he's shot, two minute lecture.
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.
So they are 'twats' for opposing supporting a Marxist group intent on anarchy?
Shut up with that shit.
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.
So they are 'twats' for opposing supporting a Marxist group intent on anarchy?
Really - OMG
-
Let's just concentrate on the football, shall we?
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.

I'm guessing they know as much about Marxism or anarchy as you do.
-
I heard it on tv, but thought they were just booing the Chelsea kick off, rather than the knee
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.
You have to be a right tone deaf ****** to be booing this cause. And yes thankfully way more applause. We have lots of idiots amongst our own
-

Bore off.
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.

Jeez. Yes or no to racism? It’s simple. Give you a clue one of the answers makes you a c*nt.
-
Let's just concentrate on the football, shall we?
-
People wait all that time to get back into Villa Park and one of the first things they do is boo the anti racism message, the mind boggles at the stupidity of some people. Thankfully the majority soon drowned them out with applause.
-
Jorginho rolled about eight times when he went down, the twat.
-
Not a bad start. This Chelsea defence has some goals to be leaked today.
-
Had forgotten Bert played for them. If it was the other way round we'd be thinking he's bound to score.
-
Chilwell - ha. Targett >
-
Jack.lools.like he is trying to hard to do.something special. Need to calm his play
-
These are a much better side than they were under Lampard but they do look like we could get in behind them.
-
Traore needs to get himself involved. Game is passing him by
-
We are starting to get pushed deeper and deeper now. I’m getting worried
-
Did our fans boo the knee?
-
Did our fans boo the knee?
Some yes, many didn’t
-
Hasn't been a brilliant start.
-
Some booing twats thankfully drowned out by clapping.

Yes.
-
Hoof
-
Let's just concentrate on the football, shall we?
Sorry, missed this.
-
These are a much better side than they were under Lampard but they do look like we could get in behind them.
Deifinitely. The problem is they’re zipping it around our area now.
-
Decent run by Bertie, shame the keeper didn't spill it.
-
We're doing way too much hoofing. Pass and move you fuckers!
-
Can’t hold on to ball at the moment
-
They're well on top.
Tough ask to constantly boot it up for Ollie to hold up v 3 CBs. Would like Davis on for last 30 minutes.
-
great work by traore decent chance
-
Traore showing his brilliance and why we all get frustrated at times with him in a couple of minutes
-
These are a much better side than they were under Lampard but they do look like we could get in behind them.
True. Look at the number of players they get into the box.
-
Why the feck am I watching Leicester take a penalty?!
-
Hause so far has been outstanding
-
Amazed they didn't find a way to give a penalty there.
-
We can't keep inviting this sort of pressure.
-
Has Hesgoal been blocked in the UK?
-
Decent run by Bertie, shame the keeper didn't spill it.
That was brilliant, it's those little bits that make me like him, if he could consistently do things like that a couple of times a games week after week he'd be a top player.
-
We have defended brilliantly but that is literally all we are doing now in this game. You know that their goal is coming if we don’t find a way to put our foot on the ball.
-
Starting to think we might be mentally on the beach.
-
They're playing through us so easily, would get Doug on at HT.
Sort of game where if wide players can't get on the ball and influence we get outnumbered too easily in other areas.
-
we need Watkins to hold it up better we are under the cosh here
-
Has Hesgoal been blocked in the UK?
No good here, or in Romania - where my son is watching on another stream.
-
Still, it's nice to end the season not for some reason shitting bricks isn't it?
-
We need to move this out of our box. We need McGinn and Nakamba to have another very good game.
-
Starting to think we might be mentally on the beach.
I don’t think we are. I think Chelsea are just very good and very, very motivated.
-
Traore just does not do enough. For all the occasional fancy flick here and there if we want to push on next season we need better than him on the wing.
-
The whole midfield is being bypassed by Chelsea
-
Only a matter of time unless Dean tweaks it
-
Chasing shadows.
Emi has touched the ball more than most of our midfielders
-
Our midfield as much as we love aspects of it and certain players is at best mid table. And it’s showing
-
Stupid fucking ball.
-
Only a matter of time unless Dean tweaks it
In August.
-
Not exactly getting the crowd going are we
-
Chelsea are also showing with their possession and ability to move the ball that Tottenham they are not.
-
Bit of a wake-up call. If we want to qualify for the Champions League, this is the gap.
-
Southgate in tears.
-
Has Hesgoal been blocked in the UK?
No good here, or in Romania - where my son is watching on another stream.
I can’t get it working either! Damn and blast
-
We are getting totally outplayed.
-
It's a matter of time until we go behind at the moment.
-
They really should be 1 up. Mount should have done better.
-
Does anyone want my match ticket or is it too late?!
-
I would take off AEG and get Doug on. This is only going to end badly if we don’t change
-
Only a matter of time unless Dean tweaks it
You reckon?
-
£250 million to park the bus
-
Pretty obvious that our set up is not working.
-
Has Hesgoal been blocked in the UK?
No good here, or in Romania - where my son is watching on another stream.
I can’t get it working either! Damn and blast
Just got it working on my phone, seems to take a bit longer than usual to load but worked eventually.
-
Well played Targett.
-
We need to exploit their formation, but we can't with the way we're set up.
-
Great tackle Konsa
-

Hesgoal loads occasionally, but that’s it. Worked ok with F1. Any suggestions of alternative?
-
Grealish lucky not to be booked.
-
We are so glad to see the Holte in business again we're making sure the entire game is played as close to it as possible.
-
Not very enjoyable so far. Come on Villa!
-
Chance McGinn, bit more like it from us. And the crowd sounds magnificent.
-
ooooooh great work and shot by SJM
-
Chelsea’s players are just pathetic. Squealing for everything.
-
great spell then couple of crunching tackles. the chelsea boys won't fancy that with the final around the corner.
-
We are so glad to see the Holte in business again we're making sure the entire game is played as close to it as possible.
I assume our fans will move to the North for the second half.
-
The game is turning. A few shots and hard challenges.
-
Getting a bit of a foothold now.
-
Unlucky, we need to press Jorginho so much more as he will lose it when pressured.
-
Ooer. It’s just connected.
-
Jack looking a bit lost as a no 10
-
Shoulda coulda
-
Stop giving the ball to them constantly FFS
-
Wouldn't mind seeing Grealish wide left and Chucky behind Watkins at some point.
-
Giroud will have a field day with amount of crosses they're getting in, he'll come on and score v us as usual.
-
Back to them being completely in control.
-
Shit half. Let's see if Smith makes a change tactically or personnel wise.
-
Wouldn't mind seeing Grealish wide left and Chucky behind Watkins at some point.
This. Hopefully before it's too late.
-
Wonderful support
-
The referee has been decent so far.... sure it'll change.
-
Shit half. Let's see if Smith makes a change tactically or personnel wise.
I think that pretty much goes without saying! Just need to get to half time
-
Absolutely no movement for Konsa for that throw. Everyone standing still
-
I can't imagine Chuk will come on for more than a few minutes, with tomorrow's game.
-
Why are Tottenham helping Chelsea? Twats.
-
Chelsea the better side but I think we are doing ok to be honest
-
What a load of rolly polly fuckers the Chelsea players are. Horrible.
-
Won’t Chucky and Bidace be playing tomorrow?
Can’t see them being involved today.
-
The referee has been decent so far.... sure it'll change.
It did. Useless twat.
-
Clash of heads with McGuiin and John just wonders what the fuss is about
-
Won’t Chucky and Bidace be playing tomorrow?
Can’t see them being involved today.
Philogene-Bidace is too old for the youth cup so he's more likely to get a decent appearance, chuk might get a few minutes.
-
Won’t Chucky and Bidace be playing tomorrow?
Can’t see them being involved today.
Bidace is not an u18.
-
Won’t Chucky and Bidace be playing tomorrow?
Can’t see them being involved today.
Bidace is too old to play tomorrow, and if they're on the bench they should be in consideration to be involved. 20 minutes or so won't make any odds to Chucky's chances of playing tomorrow.
And GOAL!!!!!
-
Yesssss
-
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
-
Fucking get in
-
YeeeeeH
-
Get in Bertie
-
Traore, top corner!
-
Had forgotten Bert played for them. If it was the other way round we'd be thinking he's bound to score.
BOOM.
-
GETTTTTTT INNNN!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I thought it was a bit jammy initially but I actually think there was some intent there by Bert to hit it into the ground
-
BERT
-
Bit of luck to it but who cares, great goal.
-
LOLOLOLOL
-
Tuchel has a definite "round up all the villagers and shoot them" 1940s look about him
-
Wonderful to watch a stream when you know we've scored!
Traore mishit into the top corner.
Really like Targett on set pieces, needs to continue next season.
-
A second before half time be nice, if I'm being greedy. 🙂
-
Tuchel has a definite "round up all the villagers and shoot them" 1940s look about him
Looks like an older version of the spy in Deutschland 89
-
Like the way that worm popped up to divert it onto the bar and in.
-
Get in Traore!
-
Ah. The fans booing pre kick off soon had something to cheer :)
-
Jorginho on a yellow, excellent. Keep on having a run at him and see what happens.
-
Nicely worked goal, even though Bert mishit it!
-
These are fucking rattled. Mon Villa.
-
Bit of luck to it but who cares, great goal.
What was lucky about that, we actually had a plan for a corner 👏
-
The pressure is showing on Chelsea, they are getting niggly.
-

He looks like a Thunderbird
-
HT fuck Chelsea
-

I've just laughed like a drain at this.
-
Kovacic should be on a yellow aswell.
-
Fantastic. Would be thrilled to end the season on a high.
-
Jack getting in his ear, love it
-
I’m not up on all the modern lingo but is this what is called sh*thousery?
-
Kovacic should be on a yellow aswell.
Should've been since about the 3rd minute, the challenge on McGinn was easily the worst foul in the half but the ref completely missed it.
-
Get in! And this has been our crap half!
Chelsea getting a bit rattled now...Tuchel will have the teacups lined up for the half time team talk ready to throw around!
-

I've just laughed like a drain at this.
I have only just realised Tuchel looks very much like my comprehensive school games teacher.
-
Chelsea lashing out as things aren't going their way.
Wankers every one of them.
-
how ever much Bertie gets slagged off by Villa fans . First season of goals and some wonderful goals in there and assists , I think next season we are going to see a player , well happy with him.
-
We grew into that after basically just giving them the ball for first 20 minutes.
Just checkec back to last season's fixture and Hause scored in 43rd minute to put us 1 up but game turned when they put on some quality subs on the hour mark, we did nothing and they scored twice in five minutes.
Tuchel will do the same so really hope DS just dosen't expect us to hold out playing as we are, Luiz is an obvious sub early second half.
-
Lovely run from Bert for the goal, nice to see a move off the training pitch work in a match.
-
Chelsea lashing out as things aren't going their way.
Wankers every one of them.
I can see one of them getting a red if they don't equalise in the first 20 mins of the second half. Jorginho being on a yellow will be interesting, especially if we can keep a high-press going in the second half.
-
Don’t forget they have Giroud.
-
Chris Wilder reports for the BBC:
"Well worked free-kick, came round the back and pulled it to the edge of the box, Matt Targett bounced it into the ground and it's gone right in the top corner!"
Apart from the fact that it was a corner, and it was a different player, those are some top observational skills there.
-
Kovacic should be on a yellow aswell.
Should've been since about the 3rd minute, the challenge on McGinn was easily the worst foul in the half but the ref completely missed it.
Will be one of those instances where he gets booked in 89th minute for time wasting or something and you wonder how he hasn't had a yellow at any point before.
Both of their CMs on yellow also means none of them can touch SJM when he starts motoring through them.
I fancy our chances at holding out and at least not losing this one compared to last year when it was generally accepted we'd lose even if 1 up with about ten minutes left v these type of team. The backline is working nicely again, Ez is brilliant on a one v one situation.
-
Chelsea lashing out as things aren't going their way.
Wankers every one of them.
This. Watch it get worse the more desperate they get.
-
May only get another 25 out of Jack. We look good when interested and really ordinary at other times. Next season will be great.
-
Tuchel will do the same so really hope DS just dosen't expect us to hold out playing as we are, Luiz is an obvious sub early second half.
Luiz? No thanks.
No one else is more certain to commit stupid fouls in dangerous areas than him. If he does end up coming on first I'll be doing is betting on him getting booked.
-
We are clearly almost a really good team.
Right players in this summer and we can properly kick on.
-
Chelsea lashing out as things aren't going their way.

It suits me if they want to lose the plot and implode.
-
Even though he’s on the bench, Giroud next scorer would be my bet if I could be arsed.

He was fine for last 25 minutes on Wednesday. Infact take off AEG and you can push him further forward with Nakamba still the deepest CM to really strangle life out of game centrally.
He's also one of the few we have outside Jack in the squad that actually makes good decisions in when to pass when approaching the box on counter, hit a nice cutback to I think Ollie late on in the game v Spurs.
-
Our goal was fortunate but we have done well to get back into the game in the last 20 mins. First 25mins we were getting torn apart. I'd be surprised if Werner stays on.
-
I still think these odious ****** will come back to win but I hope we don’t just let them have it. We have led in so many games this season and just fucking buckled. Let’s make them fight for it
-
Even though he’s on the bench, Giroud next scorer would be my bet if I could be arsed.
Clearly the post of a man who already has plenty of money ;)
-

Fortunate?
-
Yes wouldn't be against, if we're still winning, bringing Luiz on for AEG and going more orthodoxly 4-3-3 with Jack wide.
-
Can't see Chukwuemeka coming on - he's got a Cup Final tomorrow.
-
Jorginho 20/1 to be sent off is pretty generous odds if you want a speculative bet second half to run with.
-
We are clearly almost a really good team.
Right players in this summer and we can properly kick on.
Dunno, there was a gulf in class for most of that half. We will get better but we need three quality players to get anywhere near their level
-

He’ll be taken off long before that happens
-

Hold on with the win and we'd only actually finish 12 points off top 4 as it stands so not like we're 30 points off that as usual and many teams have quickly eroded that sort of points difference in previous seasons.
Don't think it's realistic next season mind but being in serious contention for 7th/8th should be realistic target, currently will finish just 5 points off 7th.
-
how ever much Bertie gets slagged off by Villa fans . First season of goals and some wonderful goals in there and assists , I think next season we are going to see a player , well happy with him.
Definitely you only have to look at Salah and De bruyne to see that writing a player off to early can be a big mistake.
-

That can happen with many teams and Tuechel's Chelsea. Point is as PW says we're very close to being a side that can match these sorts without caveats.
-
Chelsea changing keepers
-
God, I miss Villa Park.
-
Goalpost 1 Mendy 0
-
Even though he’s on the bench, Giroud next scorer would be my bet if I could be arsed.
Will be betting on this the second he comes on.
Chelsea subbing their keeper. Just injure two more players and they might not be able to bring him on 🙏
-
Well, one of their 3 subs being used is the keeper. Mendy injured.
Come on boys!
-
Nice tactic from Chelsea. Delay the kick off so other games be finished before this.
-
Jorginho 20/1 to be sent off is pretty generous odds if you want a speculative bet second half to run with.
Worth a punt at that price. I can see Chelsea becoming more rattled the longer are in front.
-

Depends. Chelsea only have Gilmour on bench who can play CM, rest are defenders, wide attackers and Giroud unless they just sit Mount in there.
Pretty ballsy for him just to unload central midfield as we possibly bring on more CMs.
Latest kicking off in second half so Chelsea will know exactly what they need to do going into injury time so will be very frantic last few minutes.
-
Kepa on.
That should be another goal for us.
Also limits them to just two outfield subs and bringing on some of their 200m attackers on the bench.
-
Commentators willing the ball in for Chelsea.
-
Leicester just got another penalty. Real pressure on Chelsea if they score that.
-
Great play by Targett again.
-
Chelsea totting up the yellows.
-
Here we go again. Kovacic takes out Grealish.
-
Leicester just got another penalty. Real pressure on Chelsea if they score that.
They did 2-1
-
brilliant defensive header by target. how did he get his body around it!
under the cosh again 2nd half
-
Just seen their goal.....Are Leicester wearing old shirts from the rags ?
-
Leicester go above Chelsea into the top four.
-
Great play by Targett again.
It was and I have to say I never though he would wmd being this good
-
Peno
-
Penalty! Better not overturn this, looked blatant.
-
Penalty to us
-
Certain penalty.
-
PENALTY
-
Might be varred
-
Penalty to Villa.
-
Confimed
-
YAAAAAASSSS
-
Yesssssss
-
Get in.
-
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS EL GOALZI 2-0 FUCK OFF CHELSEA
-
El Goalzi. 🥰
-
El Ghazi sending Chelsea down the khazi?
-
Superb penalty, keeper can't save that even it he goes the right way. Definite penalty as well, any more contact and they'd be down to 10 as well.
-
"Captain. Leader. Legend" bombing Chelsea out the top 4?
-
Bert may not do everything we want from a footballer, I mean the total package but he is a fucking nightmare to defend against in every attacking context.
-
Let's get the clean sheet for Emi now
-
10 league goals for El Goalzi
-
AEG such a good penalty taker for us, ice cool.
-
Magnificent Villa. Keep going boys.
-
Let's get the clean sheet for Emi now
Now that would be the cherry on top of a cake dripping with icing.
-
What is Tuchel moaning about to the officials?
"Just because your losing"! ;D
-
AEG such a good penalty taker for us, ice cool.
Confidence is a massive part of it. He even slipped taking that.
-
What is Tuchel moaning about to the officials?
Thinks El Ghazi touched the ball twice
-
This is fucking brilliant.
-
I'm rather enjoying this.
-
AEG such a good penalty taker for us, ice cool.
Imagine how many goals he'd get for Man U!
-
Take a shot Jack
-
I must say, Hause slipping into the heart of defence over the last couple of games has been seamless,
-
Why do none of their players ever fall over?
-
The fans there must be loving this. All the best to them.
-
SJM needs to up his game a bit
-
Just wish we'd shoot a bit more often on edge of the box, Jack should've done it there rather than playing a one two with AEG.
Spurs first goal in the week showed value of an early shoot sometimes.
-
Werner nets, offside ;D
-
They're trying to redraw the lines to shaft us here...
-
shoot on sight lads, it's kepa in goal remember
-
AEG such a good penalty taker for us, ice cool.
Imagine how many goals he'd get for Man U!
Targett on corners is something I really like aswell, curled in a nice one just before the penalty. Find it insane we took so long into the season to try that.
-
As prior to Covid and injuries, but I feel we do have the makings of a very good team here. Fantastic to see fans back in the Stadium too... must be amazing to be there.
Astute work over the summer and we’ll be pushing Europe next season
-
Haha. Chelsea's captain is an utter throbber.
-
How was that even close?
We're still too open here.
-
VAR will do anything to give this goal, no doubt.
-
Does armpit not count now or something, it's miles infront of Mings!
Ollie would've had a right to ask for three more goals from premier league if that had been given.
Jorginho off, Ziyech on. Kovacic still vulnerable on a yellow for them.
-
Jorginho off might open things up for us a bit
-
End of last season, sitting in my garden refreshing everything I could with a sense of panic.
This season, sitting in my garden chilling.
Have loved this season and love that we can put loads of good results together. Onwards and upwards.
-
Traore should've gone down earlier there, Kovacic lunges in and dosen't get close to winning the ball.
Them going down to 10 men would be icing on the cake and they've had a few sent off v us over the years at VP.
-
Fasten your seat belts because Chelsea have to throw the kitchen sink at us now.
-
Target playing his way into England contention. If only
-
McGinn booked, top of the bookings league now. Champions!
-
Nakamba is marvellous
-
I’m surprised they haven’t brought on Giroud instead.
-
Nakamba doing well
-
No Giroud today - yippee
-
McGinn booked, top of the bookings league now. Champions!
He didn’t need to do that
-
McGinn booked, top of the bookings league now. Champions!
As if we needed another reason to celebrate today you go and say that.
-
I'm rather enjoying this.
Me too
-
Just looking at live table, Everton down to 10th. Ouch.
That's got to hurt given who they have as manager and what they've spent.
Mad we needed 59 points to finish top half this season, finished 9th in 10/11 with 7 fewer points if we hold on to win.
-
They've made all their subs haven't they? Why do they keep banging on about bringing Giroud on?
-
Commentators seem to have lost the ability to count because they're talking about Giroud coming on still.
-
McGinn booked, top of the bookings league now. Champions!
He didn’t need to do that
He's Super John McGinn, he does what he wants.
-
Mason Mount holding midfielder for Chelsea now. Last 20 minutes should be fun if we can keep moving the ball quickly.
-
Emi injured for being brave
-

How the hell are Arsenal 7th?
-
Holte end wanting Tammy this summer.
-
Commentators can’t count subs
-
Were they singing about Tammy then?
-
Commentators seem to have lost the ability to count because they're talking about Giroud coming on still.
I must admit, I ha e no idea how many subs are allowed anymore.
Aren’t they allowed 3 more because they’re losing ?
-

They'd probably want that.
-

There's no chance Mendy went off with concussion so doesn't count, is there?
Bugger, 2-1.
-
Need a third here somehow.
-
There goes the clean sheet.
-
Fuck me 2-1

Won about 6 of the last 7.
Shows the scale of the task ahead in that they've largely had a terrible season yet will finish on 61 points.
Lot more difficult to break into the 60-65 point range than getting into 50s.
-
This could be a long 25 or so minutes. We need a third.
-
Fuck....gone a bit sloppy
-
We have been looking leggy for 10 minutes now.
Jack needs replacing
-
That started with a needless giveaway. Now we are going to be fucking under the cosh. Shitting bricks time
-
Feck, really wanted that clean sheet for Emi to tound the season off.
Time for some subs now DS.....
-
I would fucking just hate ending the season with the story being how we collapsed and allowed Chelsea to get a CL place. Fuck don’t do this to me Villa
-
Dougie needed with either Traore or el ghazi off
-
First time anybody has found space past Targett to get a cross in.
-
Time for a change. Freshen things up.
-
Chucky getting 20 mins
-
Here comes Chucky.
-
Chuckie appearance is an absolute shocker
-
Chuckie appearance is an absolute shocker
He will go for it and play without fear.
-
Spurs 2-2.
-
Chucky on for Bert
-
Blimey, Carney coming on. Go on my son.
-
Chuckie appearance is an absolute shocker
Why?
-
Andy Hinchcliffe is a wanker
-
Whoever the co-commentary is is clearly a Chelsea fan.
-
Liverpool and Chelsea haven't half had some luck in this run in.
When we used to be in serious fight for top 4 likes of Arsenal and Spurs would go unbeaten for about four months in second half of the season.
-
Can we agree: is it Chucky or Chuckie?
-
Chuckie appearance is an absolute shocker
Why?
Game tomorrow - I didn’t see him coming on with this much time left
-
Chelsea back in the top four due to the Leicester v Spurs score.
-
Fucking hell. That was nearly 2-2
-
These VAR checks terrify me.
-
Andy Hinchcliffe is a wanker
He doesn’t even pretend to be neutral
-
Refs lost the plot
-
This was meant to be relaxing.
-
That Tuchel really is an annoying c***.
-
That Tuchel really is an annoying c***.
Isn't he just. A prick.
-
Ramsey on for AEG
-
Ramsey on for El Ghazi.
-
Great ovation from the fans for both as El Ghazi goes off and Jacob Ramsey comes on.
-
We look knackered.
-
I wouldn't be against parking the bus at this point.
-
That Tuchel really is an annoying c***.
Isn't he just. A prick.
A rich mans Tony Pulis.
-
We look knackered.
It is never easy when the opposition have to score another goal to make sure of a top four place. They have been battering us for a while this half.
-
We look knackered.
And they look extra motivated with the goal. It’s going to be a very long last 10 minutes
-
Why am I so nervous for a game that doesn't really matter?
-
I think Nakamba's done well today.
-
Marvellous Nakamba has had a really good game.
-
The Leicester choke job is now complete. 3-2 down
-
Why am I so nervous for a game that doesn't really matter?
Just asked myself the same question. It'd be good to stop them getting top 4 but fucking Spurs.
-
The bookings for Nakamba and Martinez were very very soft.
-
The Leicester choke job is now complete. 3-2 down
Looked handball. VAR check
-
Looks like Chelsea are going to pip Leicester for fourth place.
-
Great save Martinez.
-
Jack out on his feet
-
STOP GIVING THE BALL AWAY FOR FUCK SAKE VILLA
Great save by Emi. But their equalizer is coming
-
I hope I'm wrong but I think this is going to end in a Desmond.
-
all the actions coming down the left from chilwell
-
Jack out on his feet
Yep, needs to go off for his own good now, looks knackered.
-
Azpilacueta sent off.
-
Haha ******. Soft red card but you can’t do that.
-
Chelsea ******. What a fucking dick their captain is.
-
That Chelsea red been coming since the 3rd minute.
-
Fair to say Jack made the most of that 😂
-
Five minutes added on.
-
Haha ******. Soft red card but you can’t do that.
Not soft at all, clearly swung out at him and made contact with his face, that's always a red card.
-
Fair to say Jack made the most of that 😂
But it was a deliberate strike by Azp........
-
Dirty Chelsea filth. That's why I despise them.
Hope Man City destroy them next weekend.
-
Let’s end the season on a high Villa. Get the fucking third goal and finish off in style.
-
Shit! We're crap against 10 men.
-
Should have finished it then.
-
Oh what I would give for Chucky to score in front of the Holte!
-
Fair to say Jack made the most of that 😂
Absolutely, as would most players. The Chelsea player should have been too experienced to get suckered in like that.
-
Tottenham winning 4-2 against Leicester the choking fuckers
-
Chelsea 28 trying to make a name for himself.
-
We are doing these last couple of minutes very well.
-
Game over. Tuchel telling his players to lay off.
-
Fair to say Jack made the most of that 😂
Absolutely, as would most players. The Chelsea player should have been too experienced to get suckered in like that.
Yep.
-
Horrible to see dirty Liverpool and filthy Chelsea scraping into the top 4. Both despicable clubs.
-
Get that whistle out yer arse ref.
-
Next season I hope we 'choke' like Leicester, you know, with a F.A cup and European football assured...
-
MOTM. Marvellous.
-
Tuchel getting the message across to his players that they have done enough due to results elsewhere.
-
Been impressed with Nakamba. Offers more than Luiz going from the last couple of games.
-
A deserved MOTM for Marvellous who has had a terrific game.
-
YAAAASSS.
-
Great couple of wins to end the season
-
Lap of appreciation for the 10k.
-
Great couple of wins to end the season
Fabulous we are on the way up!
-
If you’d have told me we’d finish a place ahead of Newcastle Id have been worried, two ahead of the tatters I’d be happy.
Well done Villa
-
Jack waving at the fans.
Jokes.
-
Good finish to the season not what many expected after Palace
We are a club making progress
Huge close season and will tell us a lot
-
I love Nakamba. His tenacity and determination in centre mid improves us. I hope that there's no talk of letting him go.
Even if we buy a top centre midfielder we should definitely keep Marvellous.
