Come on Villa please win.
-
Jesus out, Timber starts.
-
So Enzo didn’t make the final cut in the end.

Jesus out, Timber starts.
Some Arsenal fans will be cross with that.

Probably makes sense as i had afeeling unai would go unchanged

He's probably dead wood though.

Doors still not open Lower Holte
-
Please win, really hate Arsenal.
-

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay...
-
Come on me Villa babbies!
-

I think we’d have gone Carlos at the back if Cash wasn’t fit with Enzo coming on to the bench. The kid will be good. Long season.
-
#AVFC went digital with their tickets for this season and there are teething problems - big queues outside the ground are not moving
If this is bad then this could be delayed. I think Palace had the same issue last season when they went digital and had to delay k.o for their game by 45.
-
Lower Holte doors aren’t working
-
Lower Holte doors aren’t working
No excuse for that, sounds like a shambles.

Indeed - it’s one thing if people can’t get their head round the tickets/handful of people the club have messed around.
It’s entirely another if the gates don’t even work.
-
Usual bollocks at Villa Park. People’s digital tickets not working but, fortunately, no problem with my season card.

You can see the cue on the left.

Predictable chaos at the turnstiles North Stand and Witton Lane
-
It’s what Jane told me, I’m at home, seems to be other stories out there too. We’ll find out soon enough I expect.

At least they got the new badge on the stand!
-
Our firm went digital on payslips. Many of us haven’t seen how much pension, tax or NI they’ve paid for six months, and if you want to know how much you’ve picked up you have to wait until oay day and look at your bank balance. If they’ve made any mistakes, we’re none the wiser.
Sorry, off topic I know but it’s most annoying.
-
You can see the cue on the left.
Give it a rest.

Hopefully just opening the gates will cushion the blow.

Have they tried switching them off and then back on again?
-
well at least the sun is out now

Ah fuck! It's like you have me in your pocket.
-
Fans are snookered
-
Ground problems have reardoned they’re ugly head again.
-
I can't believe Michael Oliver is being allowed to ref another Villa match. Just watch how many Villa players he books, the man's a complete w****r.

I’m hoping we pot a few in today.

Lets put the ball on the centre spot first before we start predicting.

Well I will be in airport which may or may not have it on but I’ll only catch the second half. If anyone had any way I might catch the first half reliably on my phone then I’d appreciate some guidance.

yet the powers that be were out patting themselves on the back (as usual) during the week.

Coms between officials are down...its all going off

I have cursed us by paying for a NowTV pass.

Martin Keown
Former England defender on Football Focus
Aston Villa pretty well cost Arsenal the league title last year, so they will be taking that as oxygen into this game. The owness is on them today to take the hurt from last year and get the result.

Love it when the kids go past those Smoke jets and absolutely shit themselves.

I expect us to win all 19 league home games this season.
-
I expect you to tell us every game before the rest of the planet knows, including the goalscorer that we have scored again. And loads of goals at that. Make it so.

-
I know it wasn't intentional but I do always wonder why lifting a elbow to fend someone off isn't a foul. Rugby officiates on a mix of intent and outcome and that seems more sensible to me.

Good and bad Cash within 15 seconds there...

Not for nothing was Alan Shearer known as Mary Poppins in certain quarters.

Let off there. Cash not good there left us exposed
-
cash final ball shit and nearer got us in trouble.

Pretty sloppy at the mo.

The commentator asked UE if he was considering starting with DC. UE's answer was that was then, this is now
-
Cash down
-
Cash hammy gone
-
FFS.
-
Cash is done. Kosta time
-
cash down now
-
On comes Ned, could be a tough'un for him.
-
Cash hammy banjaxed.
-
I think Kosta has a great chance to cement himself here.
I like Cash, but if it’s his Hamstring, he’ll be off for a while to come.
-
Emery pissed off with his injury
-
Awful for Cash.
-
Great save Emi
-
SAVE Emi boy
-
Ned on
-
Ah, there it is. Our first bad injury of the season. Just the 428 others to go, then.
-
Why hasnt the sub been ready to come on ffs??
That almost cost us
-
Nearly bloody punished.
-
great save Emi
-
Big call to bring Ned on ahead of Carlos.
-
We need to sharpen up here. So much sloppiness.
-
Emi what the hell was you doing there? That was never a foul
We got lucky there
-
Not the most auspicious start.
-
That’s a lot of faith and trust in Kosta by Emery. Hope the kid really takes advantage.
-
Maybe we could ask the ref to let us have the ball occassionally.
-
Nedeljković looks about 12.
-
Bailey down
-
Fuck Bailey looks like he fucked himself.
-
All Arsenal.
-
Quite a shit game so far. Now Bailey down. Fuck sake
-
Bailey serious injury no2 of the season?!
-
Spinny twisty trick
-
Won’t be surprised if Bailey is done also now
-
And this ladies and gents is way i was harping about having the extra players
2 injuries in 2nd game
-
I though arse was pretty injury free last season , be nice to see a saka or odegaard injured instead of our lot.
-
We better have a few pennies left in the bank this week to buy a couple of players.
-
Well that might be a nasty one for Bailey. Fingers crossed he can run it off and it's not a ligament.
-
Bailey still alive.
-
I can’t believe the amount of injuries we get Cash and now Bailey
-
Is it the turf?
-
This is a watch through the fingers game at the moment
-
Eye twist on Rice.
-
Oh Ollie
-
Omg ollie
-
FUCK me Ollie....GEEEEZ!
-
Bit rusty that
-
Talking about not having a pre fucking season.
-
FUCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKK OLlLIE
-
What a miss ollie ffs. Thats shocking
-
Christ Ollie!!!! Flaming hell!!!!
-
Practically an open net he’s missed there
-
fucking sitter
-
There he is.
-
OMG What a miss
-
get duran on
-
Hmm. That bloody should have been buried. Totally.
-
Ollie. Fucking hell. What in the name of God was that?
-
Shocking pass
-
That’s woeful from Ollie.
-
I still love you Ollie!
-
Ollie will get a tap in now though. He’ll make up for that one.
-
how well Bailey did too
-
Ollie miss
https://x.com/d7em10_TFC/status/1827390567011045715
-
Against teams like this you have to take those poor from an England striker
-
Strange, fraggy affair this has been so far...
-
Ollie is still shaking off the Southgates....
-
We look a bit more balanced with Kosta. Pushing forward a bit more…
-
Ollie is such a streaky goalscorer. He just needs one to get himself going. But he looks so off his game right now.
-
Saka is a proper pusscake. Fucking screaming like a tart.
-
been pretty poor but for that one chance, need to put them away .
hopefully grow into it more.
-
Saliba excellent there tbf
-
Have him John!!!!
-
Leon Bailey brilliant. In defence
-
Superb leon
-
Never been so happy to have Duran on the bench to be honest but would bloody love Watkins to notch one first
-
Waste so many fucking chances.
-
Fuck em up lads.
-
Bailey well done son
-
Bit of anger there!
-
get the panda on to rough these fuckers up
-
Handbags! That's what we like to see.
-
I always think of Arsenal as lacking discipline… if something ruffles them, they lose it.
-
Love it nice and feisty. Onana and Ginny are up for this.
-
These Southern softies don't like it up 'em.
-
Ref doing well I think. No need for cards over that nonsense. Free kick to Arse for the initial foul and let's say no more about it
-
I always think of Arsenal as lacking discipline… if something ruffles them, they lose it.
comes from tarmac head
-
Why was Saliba nearly pulling Watkins shirt up round his neck completely ignored by everyone before the handbags?
-
Slow from Digne there
-
Honestly I think he just picked his pocket but yeah there was a bit of shirt-pulling
-
Ha Ha, whisk foot.
-
Bailey should have retained the ball better there. Just inviting more pressure on us
-
This is all them at the moment.
Yuri off for rambo maybe at half time?
-
First goal wins this. Unless we score it.
-
Rogers is ace
-
Thats better, Morgan on the run, twisting and twisting with another twist spin.
-
Ned is switching off at times.
-
What a run from Morgan.
-
Superb morgan
-
Rogers is ace
Yeah he is an absolute cut above everyone on the pitch at the moment
-
Rogers is ace
He really is.
-
That not a booking?
-
Love to see Rogers go on a run like that.
-
Thats excellent from Youri
-
I bloody love Rogers. He’s a player who can create that moment of magic that we need. Massive player for us this season
-
Bailey has put a big defensive shift in so far
-
Sounds dead there.
-
Morgan reminds me of grealish the way he glides.
-
Ollie is so off the pace it's incredible.
-
6 added mins
-
watkins been a bit shit
-
What is up with Ollie?
-
Ollie playing rank atm
-
Replay of footage of Rogers going past Arsenal players

-
Ollies Weston Super-Mare touch has come back.
-
Ollie is really off it.
-
Bailey is insipirational this half. Putting in a real shift.
-
Rogers you are fucking ACE
-
Rice booked for a foul on Rogers
-
are there still fans stuck outside?
-
are there still fans stuck outside?
Only Ollie Watkins isn't inside VP.
-
are there still fans stuck outside?
You would think so with this atmosphere.
-
I don’t think that free kick went to plan.
-
What a shocking free kick that was
-
If Rogers keeps this up he'll end up being a legend.
-
Sit down Ar tit a you shitty hole.
-
Build the team around Rogers, the boy is absolutely superb
-
I think I'd put Duran on at half time. He looked really sharp in the last game.
-
Rogers has gotta be close to an England call up on the back of this, best player on the pitch by a long way.
-
Half time. Get Duran on.
-
fuck off tarmac head
-
I'll settle for 0-0 at FT I think
-
fuck off tarmac head
HA HA, class.
-
Rogers on fire ATM. hope he gets a goal in the second half. My MOTM so far.
-
Ollie stinking the place out that half. Needs minutes but clearly not up to speed yet
-
Gabbys record will never be broken at this rate.
-
I think I'd put Duran on at half time. He looked really sharp in the last game.
this. watkins rusty as fuck , of course needs to play to get up to scratch but Duran will be a pain in the arse for this and hes done 45 mins.
should be 1 0
-
We are close to being title contenders. Whatever the result today, I’m convinced of it.
-
Been a good warm up for CL. Will be plenty of these cat and mouse games in that tournament home and away.
We've looked very solid. Frustrating that Ollie didn't play at all in pre season as he's off the pace and that was a really poor finish. Had time to take a couple of touches and slot it into the corner.
Rogers when he bursts forward is frightening. I'd be amazed if he dosen't make an England squad in next six months.
What's interesting about this is we probably have more on the bench to change things than Arsenal do with likes of Duran and Maatsen.
-
Rogers is some player
-
Rogers is £50m player now, easy. He's going to be amazing for us.
-
Got better as the half went on. I do worry our sloppiness will cost us.
-
Ollie always looks a bit off when he's not played for a while. I'd give him another 20 to get the minutes in his legs and then give Duran another chance to change the game.
-
Hopefully we bring Ollie on for the second half.
-
Rogers is some player
[/quote
Best player for us by far
Awesome performance
-
Michael Oliver always looks like he is about to kick a conversion.
-
Rogers and Tielemans have been superb that half. Most of the rest good but Watkins looks way off it. I think we’re doing well
-
Ned is switching off at times.
Don't be picking on the new boy from the off. How about encouraging support. Help him find his feet.
-
Rogers is some player, absolutely roasted them a couple of times and not with raw pace but a lovely combo of strength and skill, hard to teach that
-
Never been so glad to see half time. Whole game was all over the place. Late start, pauses, so many misplaced balls. Match badly needed a reset
-
Hopefully we bring Ollie on for the second half.
Yep. George Weah's cousin not really cutting it.
-
Ned is switching off at times.
Don't be picking on the new boy from the off. How about encouraging support. Help him find his feet.
No wonder he's switching off if he's reading comments on here while playing.

HA HA, another good'un.

We're on a par with these mugs, bodes well for the season.
-
Rogers looks class, Ollie having a shocker.
-

Winning it, second at a push you reckon?
-

I think it's better stop start so Arsenal don't get into a rhythm.
Beyond that early Saka shot they've created nothing.
Key for us is to take a chance on the counter as we will create more on the break in second with some of the runs Rogers is doing.
Getting Maatsen on will help with that..
-
Ned is switching off at times.

Yeah Paul, leave him alone, don't you know Ned reads H&V at half time. He'll be gutted and all confidence drained now.
EDIT: I see PWS beat me to it.
-
Did i just hear Redknapp say that Arsenal much the better side ?
-
Rogers and Tielemans have been superb that half. Most of the rest good but Watkins looks way off it. I think we’re doing well
Bailey as well.
-
Did i just hear Redknapp say that Arsenal much the better side ?
He's bound to say that, his old man hates us.
-
Rogers has gotta be close to an England call up on the back of this, best player on the pitch by a long way.
I think Carsley is at the game. I've said for a while that come this time next year he'll have had his first cap.
-
Ned is switching off at times.
Don't be picking on the new boy from the off. How about encouraging support. Help him find his feet.
I think he's doing really well and the rest of the players are definitely trying to protect him, no ones making tight passes to him. Be really good minutes for him...
-
Other news though, the Lambrusco is going down a treat. Another bottle and I'll be dancing around a handbag.
-
Rogers and Tielemans have been superb that half. Most of the rest good but Watkins looks way off it. I think we’re doing well
Don't agree on Tielemans, our midfield is being bypassed. Can't break their press at all. Watkins offering nothing as an outlet either. Rogers has been best player on the pitch, I think we will see likes of Duran and Ramsey early in the second half.
-
Did i just hear Redknapp say that Arsenal much the better side ?
They were!
-

He is, that's what made me think this must be putting him in the mix.
-
I love how often the fact we basically stopped Arsenal from winning the league last season has been mentioned around this match. Much more fun than the Emery had a point to prove narrative.

Carsleys face looks like my ball sack after a swim.

The Panda will ease our pain from around 65 minutes.
-

They were!
They look more composed, we look a bit more chaotic and likely to stumble towards scoring a goal.
-
Rogers has been the best player on the pitch all game. Arsenal have been quite dirty, and could have had more bookings.
Can see Duran coming on and causing chaos second half.
-
where's the fucking LED's man?
-
Ned is switching off at times.
Don't be picking on the new boy from the off. How about encouraging support. Help him find his feet.
Pretty sure he didn’t read this at half time.
-
Feels like the game is passing Onana by a bit - and this is exactly thr kind of game where we need his perceived strengths
-
Arteta whenever the panda is warming up

-
Saliva sorry Saliba has handled Watkins well.
-
Did i just hear Redknapp say that Arsenal much the better side ?
Worse was Neville defending the Arsenal player treading on Torres' foot. Imagine if it was a ManU defender, he'd be screaming for a card. Twat.
-

A one in ten games man according to the Everton fans.
-
Any changes?
-
Any changes?
nah
-
What's that now, 7th time Ollie has given the ball away.
Fuck me make that 8
-
It’s nearly chaos panda time surely?
-
Get the panda on, he'll score the winner. Or punch someone.
-
Watkins man 🤦♂️
-
Theres being not fit and being shit
-
OMG, how did that not go in
-
Ach
-
WOW, fuck me.
-
Jesus Christ. Come and win this bloody game!
-
hows that not gone in
-
Im sorry as great a save that was ollies gotta score that ffs
-
Ollie needs a turn of luck badly.
-
Going to regret these
-
is that a class save or a miss ?
-
We’re going to lose this.
-
Come on Villa!!!!
-
We’re going to lose this.
I've got the dread, too.
-
is that a class save or a miss ?
Top save, some will say he could've put it more in the corner but I don't think he had time to adjust to do more than he did.
-
Come on Villa! Just put one of these away. Please!
-
The save

-
Criminal.
-
BEAST! Get down Martinelli you plum
-
Watkins fucking pass it. Don't just fall over ..
-
JJ and panda getting ready to cause chaos
-
Rogers just shedding tackles.
-
Ollie won’t have any more open chances than the two he’s had the rest of the season.
-
Rogers is sublime.
-
Here they come.
-
The first was a bad miss, the second was a stunning save. We'd be creaming if Emi made that save.

Looking the much better team this second half.
-
The first was a bad miss, the second was a stunning save. We'd be creaming if Emi made that save.
It was a great save. He also should steered his header more in the corner.
-
Phew
-
Yes Amadou,,,,lovely stuff
-
Ollie and SJM off.
-
Come on Panda!
-

it's like the one EMI made at arse last year. Shit shot good save.
-
Another chance

99% of the time the keeper won't save it.
-
0-1
-
There it is...
-
Twat has only been on the pitch a couple of mins.
-
We’re going to regret those missed chances aren’t we?
-
And thats our own fault misisng chance after chance.
-
You simply do not miss those chances at this level.
Bollocks.
-
3 great chances and fucked them all
-
not deserved
-
Typical
-
Will be a harsh defeat if we lose this.
-
Unlucky
-
Missed countless chances last week and now this week.
-
If you can't keep a clean sheet very often you're going to drop points too often.
-
Problem is you have to take your chances when you get them - we didn’t
-
watching that watkins header I still think he could have guided more to the corner then straight but oh well.
-
Wankers. Missed our chances, they took theirs.
-
Onana booked
-
Screaming bastard
-
lol saka
-
Urgh. I’ve missed this feeling of a pending unfair defeat!
-
Ross and Ian coming on soon.
-
Rogers ublucky. Final ball could have been better
-
Onana and Digne off
-
Barkley is the sub i wouldnt be bringing on
-
We’ve played well enough overall to get a point. We’ve had clear cut chances to win the game. But against the top sides we have to make those key moments count.
-
0-2
-
0-2
-
Poor from Emi
-
Can't help but laugh. JFC what the fuck is this.
-
Ah well.
-
Rubbish villa. Fucking rubbish
-
Back to my sick bed 😕
-
And that is why we have to take our bloody chances. Again.
Pathetic. Totally undone here. Our performance deserved much better than this.
-
That's their revenge for last season.
-
Difference between a side that will challenge for the title and a side that is in the next group of clubs.
-
Frustrating - we should have a won this but gifted it to them - can’t afford to do this at the level we want to operate at
-
Really soft this performance. Too sloppy in front of goal and if your level drops you get punished.
-
Can't help but laugh. JFC what the fuck is this.
One of the five or so best teams in the world taking their chances while one of the fifteen or so best teams in the world doesn't?
-
Well at least I won't have to watch Motd
-
Just hope we don’t let our heads drop after this and Ollie sorts his shit out
-
Should be 3
-
My fear before the season started was i think we havent replaced the goals that diaby and luiz bring to us and after two games we have missed so many chances.
-
If you miss open goals, you lose games against good sides. Not clinical enough.
-
Arsenal fans chanting for Emi, really hate these ******.
-
Last season was built on having such a excellent home form and we have lost the first home game.
-
arsenal arrogant wanking fans
I just hope the corrupt mancs win the title again
-
Arsenal fans chanting for Emi, really hate these ******.
Dish it out you gotta take it back sometimes.
-
Arsenal fans chanting for Emi, really hate these ******.
was a soft goal at his near post.
-
Arsenal fans chanting for Emi, really hate these ******.
Let them have their moment they bitter about last season.
We have no one but ourselves to blame with all the awful finishing from watkins
-
Oh shut up!
-
Another Raya save.
-
Great chance for JJ
-
Not too bothered about the defeat.
I've seen enough to know we're going to have another very good season unless the CL totally drains us.
Ultimately you don't take gilt edged chances when they come around against title winners and they will sooner or later.

No bother. It’s not like Arsenal will win anything again this season.

Tielemans has been class today, hardly wasted a pass so in general terms I don't think we'll miss Luiz. And majority of his goals were penalties so we just need to get some more.
We'll score plenty v bottom half teams so not really worried. Today we should've had two goals from not many chances but Ollie just had one of those days.

Yup. Either team could have won it, one team took their chances and the other didn't.
Just like both games against them last season.
-
tackling our own players now

Cant they both lose?

Raya will be their MOTM, says plenty.

If only
-
lol wtf was the free kick?
-
Not much by way of consolation but we will beat most sides in the league playing this way and with the chances we’ve had. We won’t miss them like today. Not the really good ones anyway. But to stay in the top 4 we need to be more ruthless.
-
Give Buendia a run
-
No bother. It’s not like Arsenal will win anything again this season.
I wouldn't bet against Saka winning an Oscar the diving twat.
-
Annoyed, should've at least drawn, but that's a better annoyance than others available.
-
Arsenal fans chanting for Emi, really hate these ******.
It amuses me they hate him so much.
He was endlessly loaned out for nearly a decade and he still stuck around to win them their only trophy in about 7 years.
I guess he must've trash talked a bit after he left but it bemuses me why they're so unhinged about him.
Should've saved the second which was disappointing as it has killed us getting a result.

Youri has been good but i cant see many goals in our midfield like last year. I dont think we have addressed the 15+ goals diabs and luiz gave us
Ollie had a poor game last week too.
I think the most worrying aspect for me was how easy arsenal cut through us. Two chances two goals.
-
It's frustrating but before the West Ham game i'd have been happy enough with 2 draws, we have 3 points so not a disaster. Just frustrating.

I wouldn’t describe it as cutting through us. The first goal was an unlucky bounce off Rogers and the second was a mess at the top of the box.
-
Next time we play this type of match we need to be trusting Maatsen to start.
A few times in the second half we had decent breaks but Digne was a bit fatigued so couldn't get up the pitch to support it quickly enough.
Maatsen got pace to burn so wouldn't shock me if we see him in from the start next week at Leicester.

The second was far too easy for me.

I thought Digne did a very good job on Saka but he isn't offering anything offensively these days.
Thought we took off McGinn too early.
-
Maatsen should have came on wwhen JJ and Duran came on
-
FT. We go again.
-
Only one player we are missing. Watkins. The goalscorer variety

Two absolute sitters missed, the second one was worse.

They were both shocking, the first embarrassing, the second will take some time to forget.
-
Watkins oh dear, clearly not fit enough, thought we should have won this but you can't miss chances like that. Need a better back up than Duran.
-
F**k England - Ollie needs to concentrate on his day job!
-
Probably two of our best players (Watkins missed 2 sitters and Martinez let a shot through his hands for their second) cost us all the points. That’s the way it goes but we more than matched the cockney wankers.
That’s my considered opinion.
-
Played very well, should’ve won it but when you
miss sitters like that you will pay the price and we did.
I thought we suffered when McGinn went off but what a player we’ve got on our hands with Rogers.
Disappointed but also encouraged by the way this team are developing.
