Diaby makes way for Luiz to return. Just hope it is Luiz and Mcginn with Tielemans further forward.
-
No Chukky for them? Injured again?
-
FTF 8)
-
I’m signing out. UTV 🦁 💪🏼🙏🏼
-
This is an important match.
-
No Chukky for them? Injured again?
Must be. A quick browse of one of their fora earlier, loads of them would have him in their first team at the moment.
If he weren't crocked.
-
Like the team - but feeling nervous. Just win please villa
-
Just a point and it is mathematically impossible for Manchester United to make the Champions League.
That will be the big story for the media.
-
Douglas Luiz is our best goal scoring midfielder in last 30 years so that's only right to start him.
What I call a must win to go 9 pts clear.
I forecast 4+ goals scored.
Best of luck to us all and going to now focus!
Up the Villa!
-
Come on Villa. Let's keep Spurs 9 points behind.

Looks like we dodged a bullet there

Enjoy the game mate. Hope to see you on here after celebrating a good win.
-
Win please.
-
Come on Villa. Let's keep Spurs 9 points behind.
,,,and 6 points off Liverpool who we still have to play. Maybe we will finish up wanting Spurs to beat Liverpool ?
-
Got to expose Thiago Silva’s lack of pace.
-
If only the other teams had done their jobs we'd already have champions league football next season, and I wouldn't be going into every game feeling like I'm going to poo myself.
-
COYVBS
-
I think I've heard of 2 of their subs.
-
It’s payback time. Let’s put these misfit toys to the sword.

The only defecating tonight will be from between John McGinn's collosal cheeks, as he extrudes the last last remnants of Conor Gallagher's shit haircut.
-
A Chelsea pundit, Cole, and a Spurs pundit, Hoddle.
Come on villa, send both home crying
-
A Chelsea pundit, Cole, and a Spurs pundit, Hoddle.
Come on villa, send both home crying
To be fair, Cole is usually very appreciative of us. Also played for us. One of those "shit, yeah, I'd forgotten that" players.
-
No doubt there will be a few chants of "The Blues are going down" tonight.
Chelsea fans think its about them and retort "We're not that shit yet".
-
Thought Luiz would come in for Bailey rather than Diaby but happy with that. By starting Leon, looks like Unai wants to batter them into submission.
-
A Chelsea pundit, Cole, and a Spurs pundit, Hoddle.
Come on villa, send both home crying
To be fair, Cole is usually very appreciative of us. Also played for us. One of those "shit, yeah, I'd forgotten that" players.
Cole just trying to flog Watkins to a 'really big gun' there a moment ago.
-
Hoddle talking twaddle saying Watkins and Toney have both had great seasons, no only one of them has so far.

He is a twat .
-
Nervous about this one. Dunno why.
I was nervous about Brentford, Arsenal, Lille and Bournemouth (pre game)
Biggest game at this end of the table since City in 2010 - that team was out on its feet.
-
Hoddle is absolutely clueless. Ruining the viewing experience
-

I love this, gutted I'm not there tonight
-
Luiz in for Diaby as suspected.
Rogers keeping out a £50m signing is impressive .
-
I think I've heard of 2 of their subs.
That's two more than me
-
Pochettino has the most hardest job in world football says Joe Cole . Deluded.
-
Hoddle can't even acknowledge Aston Villa who are 19pts ahead of Chelsea just harps on about Chelsea and refuses to compare.
Must we have this?
Where's Dublin or Keown?
-
Joe Cole and Glenda clearly been on the crack pipe.
-
Worst punditry I have heard in a while.

I’ve bought TNT for a month. Is it always like this?

Players look focused. https://twitter.com/VTID_AVFC/status/1784283282282012999
-

Compare that to a manager at a struggling small club, with no money, twat deluded fans and crap players.
Oh wait, that is Poch.
-
Come on Villa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hoddle can't even acknowledge Aston Villa who are 19pts ahead of Chelsea just harps on about Chelsea and refuses to compare.

Id prefer Brian Little and Ian Taylor.
-
The atmosphere is real and rocking ! Comes across fantastic!
Buzzing for this just from viewing on surround sound !
Let's go !
Enjoy the Game everyone !
Up the Villa!
-

Nah the DoF will have in order to balance the unbalanceable books
-
Sigh, McGinn not in the defensive role.
-
Blimey
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Get in!!!!
-
We want five
-
Get in
-
Lethal finish...
-
Get in - lovely work from Digne. That’s some shocking work from Palmer just letting Pau go.
-
Cucurella has seen the links and decided to ensure he'd be joining a CL team!
-
Was it me, or was the ball out in an earlier phase of play with Digne?
-
Could i bother anyone for a trickle please?
-
Got two members of the Faroese Lions watching for their first game ever at Villa Park 💪💪🇫🇴🇫🇴
-
Was it me, or was the ball out in an earlier phase of play with Digne?
Didn't leave the line
-
The goal
https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1784298522025599301
-
That’s nearly brilliant.
-
They all just look like they're having a lovely time.
-
Fuck we mean business
-
We've come out the traps fast here .
-
Match thread so quiet. Posting to test if it works
-
No it’s broken
-
1-1
-
Fuck
-
Oh
-
Off surely?
-
Shit
-
Come on VAR!!!!!
-
Looks off to me
-
Disallowed!!!!!!!
-
Yes!!!!
-
Offside
-
Love VAR
-
UTV
Up the VAR
-
Why did it take so long given the lines so far appart
-
Jackson shouldnt even be playing should have been sent off last game.
-
That look like way off. But surely not that much
-
Thank fuck for that. Need to wake up a bit. We’ve dropped off here.
-
Phew.
-
Warning that . We need to step up again, been a bit wasteful with possession.
-
We’re being a bit careless on the ball here.
-
Match thread so quiet. Posting to test if it works
Quite happy for it to be deserted for the next ninety minutes and the most tedious 1-0 in history.
-
Warning that . We need to step up again, been a bit wasteful with possession.
It isn't really, we play a high line on purpose, sometimes that will mean teams will get in behind and score but get flagged offside, it happens so often that all it really does is show that our gameplan is working.
-
We can't get the ball
-
Chelsea look a lot like us in the years we were finishing 10th-14th.
Play it into a midfielder who isn't really moving, pass to another midfielder who isn't really moving, pass forward to your best player who loses the ball.
-
We're making a sub it seems
-
Diaby for Tielemans?
-
Only 3 teams covered less distance than is this season. Pretty impressive.
-
Diarby coming on
-
Yep, groin
-
Shame for Youri.
-
callagher should have a card for taking out teilemans out
-
Might work in our favour with McGinn dropping back.
-
callagher should have a card for taking out teilemans out
Absolutely
-
We've gone off the boil here . They are in control .
-
We've gone off the boil here . They are in control .
Relax
-
We've gone off the boil here . They are in control .
They can control their one nil loss as long as they like.
-
Tielemans is a big loss, we’ll miss his passing quality.
-
We've gone off the boil here . They are in control .
Relax
Don't do it
-
Let off
-
Sort it out Villa
-
We need to get on the ball. A goal is coming for them.
-
wake the fuck up
-
We’re letting them conflict this too much.
-
That's better!
-
Yikes. Come on villa we haven't won this yet.
-
not keeping the ball at all even when they get it .
but we will probably hit them on break still.
-
I'll be surprised if this finishes 1-0
-
Was hoping Chelsea might have hit the beach .
-
I'll be surprised if this finishes 1-0
5-0 will do
-
We're doing ok though considering they are 4th and should be coming to Villa Park and wiping the floor with us.
-
Was hoping Chelsea might have hit the beach .
They still have a minor shot at Europe.
-
that shot worse than his tattoo
-
This isn't ending 1-0 .
-
Cash is having a stormer.Diaby needs to get on it
-
Doing our utmost to help chelsea. Making some silly errors. Losing possession too easily
-
Rogers
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Rogers.
-
Ye of little faith
-
This isn't ending 1-0 .
Quite right
-
Get in there
-
Rodgeerrrrtrsssss
You fucking beauty!
-
Well done Morgan
-
What a fucking signing !! Get in .
-
Yes indeedy. We needed that
-
Massive goal right before HT
-
This kid is class
-
3 goals in 3 straight home games
-
This kid is class
And has a knack of scoring when we need it most.
-
Rogers is proving to be bargain of the season.
-
6 mins added
-
Cash so far having his best game this season
-
Where has this Matty Cash been? Motm so far.
-
Rogers goal.

https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1784308145797407152
Lovely finish
-
Rogers goal.
https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1784308145797407152
Lovely finish
Very clever
-
That'll do
-
Clinical... i like that
-
Comfortable
-
Can I just comment that Unai’s barnet is looking magnificent.
-
Gutted for Youri. However, groins can be a few days or a few weeks all depends - you can play through them as well…..but he won’t want to risk the Euros.
-
Sideshow Mel, after scoring an own goal, played the ball to Diaby, then to Cash in the build up.
-
What a great finish from Rodgers that was. Have we ever signed someone from the lower leagues that has improved so much in six weeks?
He plays now like he's been in the premier league for the duration Luiz and SJM have.
Quite an average performance really. Quick start and then we just sit back and give Chelsea the initiative so that second goal is a big moment for this game.
-
Great timings for the goals. Nothing stupid in the first 15 of the 2nd half please
-
Lovely second goal. But we need to get more control in the second half.
-
TBF, the difference between this match and Chelsea's match on Tuesday was we scored the second 10 minutes earlier. They had quite a few chances in that match as well.
-
Great first half very professional - haven’t been at our best but been in control in the most part without possession, and look like well score on pretty much every break.
Lucky with there heater that hit the post. Rogers seems to be an absolute steal - great recruitment.
Well done cash I find him really likeable but a bit limited but this has been his best half.
Just make sure we don’t have a 15 mins off after half time and we should be good.
-
We haven't played well but are two up. Not bad. I've been critical of him recently but Torres has been very good so far as has Cash. McGinn less so.
-
We are so good 8)
-
Don't concede in the first 10 minutes of the second half and I think we'll be fine here.
-
With some better possession we can open these up . They are still dangerous though
-
Good to go in two up but we need more of the ball in the second half.
-
Apropos of nothing, signed-in-January-from-Middlesbrough has now scored as many league goals this season than Doku, Grealish, Szobozslai and is only one behind Gabriel Jesus, De Bruyne, Maddison, Paqueta...
-

Platt - similar 3 month time frame
What did ever do.

Yep we need more control I think.
-
TBF, the difference between this match and Chelsea's match on Tuesday was we scored the second 10 minutes earlier. They had quite a few chances in that match as well.
They created loads in the 2 games we won at Stamford Bridge since 2023. Loads v Arsenal too.
They concede quality chances too which is their problem. Anyone good can do that to them.
-
Need to come out alert and focused 2nd half , don't give them a sniff . Next goal is enormous .
-
Btw,it's Rogers.

Rogers making the 2026 World cup squad probably isn't the worst bet then!
-
Chelsea thought they were in the game. They weren't. They were being toyed with. Clinical performance from Villa.
I hope I don't regret saying that.
-
Need to come out alert and focused 2nd half , don't give them a sniff . Next goal is enormous .
I'll be happier if there isn't one. To be fair.
-

Yep we need more control I think.
I still see us scoring the 4+ goals.
Chelsea tire and concede goals away from home second halves.
Watkins half coming up.
He's desperate to score and I willing him so much!
Let's finish them off!
Up The Villa
-
Btw,it's Rogers.
Indeed, ticked myself off for that!
Talking of names...probably discussed at length when the team news came in but Chelsea genuinely have a player on the bench called Ted Curd?!!
-

I'll be happier if there isn't one. To be fair.
Very true , I'd take it !
-
My Mrs is fuming, she thought we were watching Fallout tonight..
I think another goal and I'll swap to my phone. Not at out beat and winning. The sign of champions.
-
Yeah, there were loads of gaps in the latter stages.Chelsea can't keep it up. Oo'er missus.

Yeah but who's his Spurs buddy being signed from Newcastle this summer.
Joking aside I think he could readily be the Bellingham alternative or more if former become the slightly offset.
-
Martinez off
-
Need to come out alert and focused 2nd half , don't give them a sniff . Next goal is enormous .
I'll be happier if there isn't one. To be fair.
Mark my words way we go forward there's more here for us .
Emery will be demanding!
Great to be leading by two but take your point !
Let's cheer it home for 9pts clear
Enjoy the second half!
Up The Villa!
-
Chelsea have now conceded 59 Premier League goals this season.
They conceded 61 in Jose Mourinho's first three seasons in charge of the club.
-
Olsen in for Martinez? Rut-roh
-
Olsen on
-
2-0 our difficult lead and now Olsen in goal...
-
Olsen ! Gulp !!
-
Fuck what’s happened to Emi.
-
Martinez off
So Olsen coming in then?
Martinez was getting rubbed off by physio during first half on back of leg must be hamstring.
Helps Olsen ahead of Thursday.
-
Emi was getting treatment in the first half.
-
Hopefully just a dead leg or something for Martinez, really don't want him out for the season.
Olsen has been OK this season.
Think we can score more this half anyway.
-
Fuck what’s happened to Emi.
He was having his thigh rubbed first half
-
Sake
-
As I suspected it's hamstring issue for Martinez
-
Hamstring
-
Hamstring
-
How many more fucking injuries can a football team have?????
-
Haha! Fans singing Olsen the worlds number two.
-
Losing Emi and Youri is a massive, massive blow. Not just for today but for everything we have in front of us to the end of the season.
-
Can we bring some fat lads on and just have them stand in a row on the goal line?
-
That’s just fcuking typical how does a keeper get a hamstring?!
-
Seems 2-0 is the most dangerous lead ... please Villa... please
-
How many more fucking injuries can a football team have?????
Man Utd had 60 this season apparently. 5.5 teams worth
-
No great shock, their was a physio on working with Emi when tielemans was down and they were clearly working on his hamstring. That he stayed on to halftime suggests it's nothing particularly serious but there's no point risking him if he's not 100%
As the said on comms it's no harm for Olsen to get half a game ahead of Thursday as well.
-
That’s just fcuking typical how does a keeper get a hamstring?!
And how long is he out then?
-
Luiz booked
-
That’s just fcuking typical how does a keeper get a hamstring?!
And how long is he out then?
It depends on how bad it is - could be a week or could be a month.
-

Hope, pray and everything else.
-
The ball just isn't sticking tonight
-
Stupid from Luiz.
-
Luiz booked
I may be wrong here but I get the impression Doug is not all that bothered anymore with us.
Maybe harsh and hopefully hunch is wrong
-
Phew
-
I don't feel comfortable at all
-
We need to get a grip.
-
Luiz booked
I may be wrong here but I get the impression Doug is not all that bothered anymore with us.
Maybe harsh and hopefully hunch is wrong
Why
-
We’ve got zero control here.
-
Need it to start sticking to Watkins or it's going to be a long half
-
We’ve got zero control here.
We have 2 very important bits of control that mean we can do exactly what we're doing and try to catch them on the break whilst not using up much energy.
-
We look like we lost our structure
-
We looking pants this half
-
2-0 not our favourite lead... need 3-0
-
The ref has no interest in pulling them up for the little pulls and tugs, weird that he booked Luiz for it.
-
Olsen holding his back...
-
The ref has no interest in pulling them up for the little pulls and tugs, weird that he booked Luiz for it.
He probably had to book Caicedo so decided to do Luiz as well.
-
We were fouled on our most recent attack. shit ref.
-
The ref has no interest in pulling them up for the little pulls and tugs, weird that he booked Luiz for it.
He probably had to book Caicedo so decided to do Luiz as well.
Yep, so it's only a booking if the guy you pull shoves you over and then squares up to you like he wants a fight, which is an interesting interpretation.
-
2-1
-
It's been coming
-
Fuck.
-
Not in control at all.
-
Wake the fuck up Villa
-
Absolutely fucking shit defending
-
Would of had a pen of he'd of missed.
-
Rogers booked
-
FFS
-
Not in control at all.
Shit
-
Get a fucking grip
-
Bollocks
-
60-70 minutes we leak goals
-
That was poor
-
Playing out doesn’t work without Martinez
-
causing our own problems
-
Really poor from Luiz .
-
Fucking referee gave them two soft fouls in the build up
Hate these cheating bastards
-
Fallen apart
Fucking playing so fucking shit this half. If we lose this im gonna be furious
Dangerous freekick
-
Said we needed control. This has 2-3 written all over it. We’re a rabble at the moment.
-
Fucking wake up Villa!
-
Really poor from Luiz .
Controversial but I would’ve kept the same team.
-
This is shocking, doing a Man Utd
-
Do we look better without Luiz?
-
Luiz was so shit for that goal
-
Really poor from Luiz .
Controversial but I would’ve kept the same team.
Would make no difference with Tielemans now injured.
-
Bailey booked
-
Do we look better without Luiz?
We did. Recently.
-
Come on wake up Villa!
Have to say McGinn is not playing well at all.
-
Really poor from Luiz .
not his best game and SJM poor
-
Bailey with a horrible challenge ffs
Wake the hell up villa
-
Bring Tim on to sure it up or even Duran to give us muscle up top.
-
Their goal. Doesn't show Luiz losing it properly.
https://twitter.com/footballontnt/status/1784318904245882901
-
We need to get a fucking grip. We’ve been terrible this half, Unai you need to sort this. If it continues it’ll only end one way, we need some control in midfield.
-
Come on wake up Villa!
Have to say McGinn is not playing well at all.
How would you change things FV?
-
Need a to keep the fucking ball
-
This is shocking, doing a Man Utd
or brentford
-
Come on wake up Villa!
Have to say McGinn is not playing well at all.
How would you change things FV?
🤣🤣
-
This ref is a dopey fucker
-
We need to get a fucking grip. We’ve been terrible this half, Unai you need to sort this. If it continues it’ll only end one way, we need some control in midfield.
Youri went off, Kamara is out long-term, Tim hasn't looked up to it at this level. Who exactly do we bring on?
-
Most Villa thing ever, 2 up at HT and heading nicely to the CL. Then lose Emi for the season, lose a couple more players, don't win. Implode.
-
Are we gonna have enough players go play against Olympiakos on Thursday night ffs
-
Come on wake up Villa!
Have to say McGinn is not playing well at all.
How would you change things FV?
Bring Watkins on.
-
DOUG. Come on.
-
Doug is being an idiot.
-
Oh fuck off caicedo you cheating little twat, blatently trying to get Luiz sent off there.
-
dougie wants to get sent off
-
Alesha waiting at home.
-
Tim on, Luiz off please. Luiz has been Chelsea's best player
-
Doug playing a dangerous game, he needs to engage his brain
-
Well done Olsen
-
You have to pressure the fucking ball Villa. This is terrible.
-
Alesha waiting at home.
with his Arsenal contract.
-
Alesha waiting at home.
with his Arsenal contract fortnite stream.
-
Alesha waiting at home.
with his Arsenal contract.
Do you know something?
-
We are all over the place.
-
Close!!!!
-
keep the ball ffs
-
Close!!!!
Who for
-
Tim and Carlos ready to come on
-
We look unusually disjointed. It’s more us and than them. Like the magnitude of the moment and opportunity is weighing heavy.
-
Close!!!!
Who for
Us
-
Bailey off for Diego
-
Bailey and Luiz coming off.
I take Ginny off as he looks unfit !
-
how we not that score
-
Do I not like this.
-
I’m only following on here. That’s bad enough.
-
And Tim on for Doug
-
Doug was totally out of whack.
-
We look unusually disjointed. It’s more us and than them. Like the magnitude of the moment and opportunity is weighing heavy.
I wonder of Tielemans going off early affected a bit of the game plan as he would have probably come on about now. Plus losing Emi would have an effect on the team and the crowd.
-
Luiz has been abysmal. Seriously so bad
The rests made him worse
-
And Tim on for Doug
Sensible. the guy has lost the plot recently.
-
dougie shite
-
We look unusually disjointed. It’s more us and than them. Like the magnitude of the moment and opportunity is weighing heavy.
We look disjointed when we are under pressure and on back foot. We look smart when we are under pressure and on the front foot
-
Dougie howser
-
dougie shite
Ffs
-
Luiz has clearly gone off the boil, I wonder how much is down to Kamara's injury.
-
Luiz has clearly gone off th eboil, I wonder how much is down to Kamara's injury.
The eboil is the new range of Alexa instructed kettles.
-
Luiz been very poor . Backfired bringing him back
-
Luiz been very poor . Backfired bringing him back
Luiz has been abysmal. Seriously so bad
The rests made him worse
I think he is on his way elsewhere mentally at least. The booking v Brentford was the I don't give a shit moment.
-
Phew
-
Five at the back or Cash as winger?
-
Shit by McGinn there
-
First time this season i've been nervous in a game!
-
They get away with physical play
-
I’ve seen this movie before.
-
My god we have completely lost it here. Can’t get on the ball at all.
-
First time this season i've been nervous in a game!
Didn't you watch any other? ;)
-
They are really growing in confidence and we are shrinking.
-
as he booked callagher yet ?
-
Attack vs defence
-
McGinn is having a shocker
-
First time this season i've been nervous in a game!
Didn't you watch any other? ;)
I'm normally relaxed regardless, not so much right now.
-
as he booked callagher yet ?
Not a fucking chance of that!
-
We’re not winning this if it continues because we’re just gifting them the ball.
-
If we lose this we can have no complaints we just look so shit this 2nd half
-
as he booked callagher yet ?
He has persistently fouled
-
How are we doing?
-
2-2
-
Cucurella with the free role
-
He gave a free kick, for shirt-pulling, he knows it's a foul!
-
What a surprise
-
2-2
Oh fuck off!
-
How are we doing?
Chelsea pressing us to death really. We can't play the ball out but we generally seem to hold them off around the edge of our box. It's all Chelsea possession.
-
Absolutely battered us this half
-
No surprise.
-
One of our worst Half's this season. Appalling since half time. We're going to lose this without a fight.
-
It's time to show our big team mentality and win !
-
That’ll be us losing this 3-2
-
Dared him to shoot it..
-
Useless
-
Why are we crapping ourselves against these
-
We're now going to lose this
-
Fuck off and expected
This has been totally uterly fucking pathetic
-
fucking crap
-
One of our worst Half's this season. Appalling since half time. We're going to lose this without a fight.
Probably the worst since the Manure away.
-
Ffs
-
Ffs
-
And there you go. Inevitable- shambolic since half time. Their third is coming.
-
Only one winner here
-
They’ll win this guaranteed…. Piss poor. Without Martinez we’re fucked. Not becaus Olsen’s done anything wrong but the defence has no confidence without him. Appalling second half.
-
just let the fucker shoot
-
That's it. 5 th
-
Bullshit. Losing this. 2-0 up at home again! Fucking hell. Need to sort this out next season.
-
We’ve deserved nothing here.
-
Diaby off for the panda
-
No shock was it
-
Well if we aren't going to win it don't effing lose it
-
How long to go?
-
Poor formation changes as well. Irogbenum isn’t even close to be ready. Villa are a different beast now my arse.
-
We've been awful this half
-
Cucurella with the free role
The sky text mentioned Poch had changed it at half time to bring him into midfield and play a three at the back. Seems something we haven't managed to counter.
-
Fully deserved by Chelsea. We have been totally shit this second half.
-
diaby poor too really
-
How long to go?
15 mins at a guess inc stoppage time
-
No shock was it
Nope we all knew it was coming.
This has happened too many times this season
-
Diaby off for the panda
Why the panda?
-
How long to go?
8 + stoppages we could be another 10 on top.
-
Bumstead and Dixon coming on.
-
To be honest 2-0 was such a fake score given how we played. This is at least what they deserve. We have been really awful tonight.
-
They've had 73% possession and 18 shots to our 6.
-
I'm only following it on here and my heart's thumping, it's horrible.
-
How long to go?
7 + Injury time
so about 13
-
diaby poor too really
Luiz too…. Waste of a shirt.
-
Poor formation changes as well. Irogbenum isn’t even close to be ready.
FFS, people here were begging for Luiz to be taken off. I said Tim isn't ready.
-
Diaby off for the panda
Why the panda?
He's chaos
-
How the hell do we go 2-0 up again and end up in this position? This needs sorting out. Not good enough at all.
-
To be honest 2-0 was such a fake score given how we played. This is at least what they deserve. We have been really awful tonight.
At this point I'd advise anyone playing us to just concede 2 goals early on and wait for us to switch off.
-
They've had 73% possession and 18 shots to our 6.
We’ve been fucking terrible. The midfield has been particularly hopeless.
-
I wish I'd watched fallout instead lol
-
Probably our worst second half performance this season. Everyone awful
-
Poor formation changes as well. Irogbenum isn’t even close to be ready.

Luiz wasn't ready either, and we would have probably been down to 10 again if he had stayed on.
-
Diaby off for the panda
Why the panda?
He's chaos
Still don't get the nickname?
-
Well this game is going about the same way my day has. It started ok, and had got progressively shitter.
-
Villa cant use the tired excuse today we have had the week off. Totally shit performance
-
Oh Ollie
-
JFC
-
Fuck me sideways
-
That's a massive chance for Ollie.
-
That was the chance
-
Great effort ollie
Superb🫣
-
Basics of football, don’t lean back, won’t get another chance like that in this game.. Edit:Goldenballs will snatch the winner.
-
wwatkins misses a easy chance to win it
-
Donkey! He could have had a hattrick tonight. Wrong boots.
-
Oh god Watkins.
-
Basics of football, don’t lean back, won’t get another chance like that in this game.. Anybody thinking a Mudryk winner?
We didn't lean back, they were on us from the 10th minute
-
I wish I'd watched fallout instead lol
bit of a fallout watching this
-

I'd say that's unlikely.
-
I can't accept a draw, Duran goal please
-
7 mins added time
-
I hope this isn’t the new contract slump 🙂↕️
-

Ollies chance I think.

I think he was talking about Watkins for his chance, rather than the team as a whole.
-
And some were saying we dont need many new players in summer?
We seriously do you cant keep losing leads like this if you wanna be a top team.
Today brentford united to name a few jesus
-
How have we let so many shit teams dominate us at Villa Park and beat the top teams?
-

Ahh, ups
-
Come on villa - been unlucky again with injuries
-
Just don’t lose Villa.
-
I was on about Watkins finish. Head over the ball, bang 3-2.
-
Watkins not been in this game at all.
-
Poor performance. A point is better than nothing though. See it out villa.
-
Watkins not been in this game at all.
Quite a few haven't.
-
Really impressed with Tim
-
Come on villa - been unlucky again with injuries
Yep, I think 1 of the problems with having a game plan as precise as ours appear to be is that if we lose players to injury it disrupts us a lot more than it should.
-
I was on about Watkins finish. Head over the ball, bang 3-2.
Gotcha, sorry
-
Olsen saves us
-
I know Emery is also trying to conserve energy. Team is down to bare bones. We have a big European game coming up and he really wants to win that also. But tonight didn’t need to be this negative and conservative.
-
Come on you Villa boys! A Panda goal please (still don't know why he is called panda)
-
WHAT A SAVE
-
Thought that was it
-
WTF are we playing at here?
-
Fuck that was close for them again
-
2-3
-
U fucking donkeys
-
Oh for FFFFFFFFFS
-
How was that not a foul?
-
Pathetic performance.
-
Fucking hell Carlos.
-
VAR our only chance
-
That has to be a foul
-
Fuck this shit. Just fuck off Villa
-
Oh fuck off! That was written. Totally pathetic
-
That was my worry about playing before Spurs.
-
Absolutely thrown it away.
-
Foul?!
-
That was my worry about playing before Spurs.
My worry wasn't that
-
That has to be a foul
-
That has to be a foul
Ref hasn't given us anything so no shock he let it go.
-
diego carlos you fucking wanker
-
Bloody hell
-
Fucking bottlers
Im sorry but they are twice in a fucking season
Just fuck off
-
Ref to the screen
-
Blatant push on Digne.
-
Get him off.
Casual Copacabana prat.
Doesn't help with the standard Olsen 2/3 goals conceded handicap either.
-
Out of jail
-
The ref was right there
-
2-2
-
Ref to the screen
probably to give a penalty....
-
Looked like a push
-
Phew.
-
Blatant push on Digne.
Carlos
-
It wa the foul on Carlos…
-
Clear and obvious!!
-
Please go and win it.
-
Blow the fucking whistle ref. End this misery
-
Corner, come on Villa
-
Winner here 👍🏻
-
That's the right call, no idea how the ref didn't see that as a foul at the time.
-
Close
-
What on earth was Carlos doing though to allow Palmer through on goal?
-
got away with one there
-
Fuck off Poch.
-
FT 2-2
-
Thank fuck
-
Christ i'll take that
-
thank fuck for that.
-
That could be vital.
-
Full time. Very disappointing but it could have been even worse.
-
Thank fuck for that. That disallowed goal makes it seem like a good point.
-
Phew. Just need to look at the injuries for Youri and Emi and look at the desire of Luiz.
-
OLSEN MOTM
-
I've always liked VAR.
-
The save from Olsen won us the point there. My god what a poor overall performance though
-
Well the way we played we have to grateful for a point. Poor day at the office
-
Almost exclusively an awful performance.
-
Chelsea better play like that against Spurs. It'll probably be the Arsenal version.
-
Chelsea got robbed in my opinion
-
Luckiest point we'll get this season.
-
Chelsea got robbed in my opinion
How?
-
Phew. Just need to look at the injuries for Youri and Emi and look at the desire of Luiz.
Over the last 6 weeks I’m not fussed whether we sell Luiz. If he can’t get motivated in the position we’re in then cash in and get two or three players in.
-
Chelsea got robbed in my opinion
How?
Because they scored two legitimate goals only the same as us, but they should have been awarded all three points, an extra goal for winning possession maybe?
-

One theory, just before xmas 2022, he broke up with Lehman. He then puts in loads of great performances up to November-ish this year. We then start hearing they are back together......
-
The calls seem to go in favour for big clubs like us.......

Sorry guys.
