I think that can be considered full strength.....
-
Very strong line-up. Thought Ned might start this one.
-
Lovely to see Bailey back.
-
The same starting XI as Saturday then.
-
Well, that's certainly taking it seriously. Thought we might possibly have seen the likes of Barkley and Duran starting, but no complaints with playing what is clearly our first choice team.
-
I think we will see changes for the weekend vs Wolves. Surprised a little he kept that line up and not thrown in Maatsen, Barkley, Diego or Ned. Clear he wants us off to a fast start in the competition.
-
Love to see it! 8)
-
good line up, good bench - lets do this!
-
Decent squad that. Four full internationals in Olsen, Cash, Mings and Kamara to come back into it as well. That bodes well for future games.
-
Wheres jayden ??
-
Lovely to see Bailey back.
Yes great to see. Some real game changers on our bench which is hugely refreshing
-
Wheres jayden ??
Guess he must still have a niggle, as I think we can have as many as we want on the bench.
-
Strong line up - we will need the squad depth - not much rest between now and December.
Bailes, Duran and Emi B is best bench we have ever had in terms of forward options.
-
Wheres jayden ??
Polishing Bailey’s boots?
-
I'd love to know what he's said to big John to explain his omission
-
::)I'd love to know what he's said to big John to explain his omission
Score when you come on and I'll definitely pick you on Saturday.
-
Young Boys XI: Von Ballmoos; Athekame, Camara, Zoukrou, Hadjam; Lauper, Niasse; Monteiro, Ugrinic, Colley; Ganvoula.
-
Win please.
-
I thought there would be some rotation.
-
I'd love to know what he's said to big John to explain his omission
You only got 1 on Saturday, Ollie got 2, quantity over quality. You'll get your chance.

Villa v Young Boys at the Wankdorf stadium. Schoolboys everywhere will be sniggering up their sleeves.
-
The Champions League anthem is going to hit hard in about 40 minutes. It’s going to represent an incredible 5 or so years of rebirth. From the pain of relegation, to nearly going out of business, Dean Smith promotion, teetering with relegation again to the arrival of Unai and all that has happened since. We as Villa brothers and sisters have gone through a lot. But today marks another new and progressive chapter for us. Let’s all enjoy it and drink it in.

Did you get that one from the Profanisaurus?

My mate rather unsubtly quipped the Beeb will definitely want to show this one.
-
8 years ago today we were about to draw 0-0 away to Ipswich under RDM.
6 years tomorrow we beat Rotherham 2-0 at home, Bruce gave it the big one to critics and fans after the game. He didn't win another game as Villa manager.

The big kebab.

Come on you Villa Boys! Have a great match thread! See you on the post match thread with 3 points!

First ever Champions League match thread on this site
-
Young Boys XI: Von Ballmoos; Athekame, Camara, Zoukrou, Hadjam; Lauper, Niasse; Monteiro, Ugrinic, Colley; Ganvoula.
Think that BSC Young Boys will line up in a 4-4-2:
Ganvoula - Ugrinic
Monteiro - Lauper - Niasse - Colley
Hadjam - Zoukrou - Ali Camara - Athekame
Von Ballmoos
Niasse and von Ballmoos being fit again is a bonus for YB. Their new in-form striker Alan Virginius is only on the bench, but I'm sure he'll be used as an impact sub.

Let's hope they're strangers to each other!
-
Poor Young Boys, don't even merit their own line-up graphic. I guess we're playing a group of amateurs, huh?
-
We definitely need to rotate for Saturdays game
-
Ta da. It was just that their team was announced before they did a graphic.

-
Ali Camara - a poor man's Bouba?
-

I’d just worry about today’s game for now.
-
We definitely need to rotate for Saturdays game
No. Rotation will come through normal wastage.
-
Fuck the Poncey Swiss Wanky Fuckers!
Just wanky fuckers will do.
-
Our corner is starting to fill up
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GXsNEUlXYAAYmcg?format=jpg&name=large)
-
It’s lovely to see so many Villa banners. What a cracking display. 🌟👍
-
Well, that's certainly taking it seriously. Thought we might possibly have seen the likes of Barkley and Duran starting, but no complaints with playing what is clearly our first choice team.
There are 7 more games to go for Barkley and Duran and others.
-

No. Rotation will come through normal wastage.
Or fatigue/injuries
Managing minutes to minimise injuries is vital
-
How great is it seeing our name
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GXsRgWhXUAIIdDf?format=jpg&name=small)
-
Happy with the selection, we need to win this.
-
Guess one of the advantages of playing at olympiakos it was one of the most hostile fan bases in europe so that will help us on europe
-
Lads no matter what happens enjoy tonight! Some of us have waited a lifetime for this and I'm so happy to be sat about to watch.
4-0 minimum is my prediction
-
Only minutes away from the anthem being blasted out.
Never bothered with it previously but now I'm sooooo excited
-
Just wondering, is Olsen injured ATM? I can't think he'd be accepting of not even being in the squad otherwise and would have gone out on loan or something
-
oh third kit
-
The horribly ironic timing of Gary's passing has only just hit home...
-
Fuck the Poncey Swiss Wanky Fuckers!
Just wanky fuckers will do.
Yes, I sincerely apologise for that. I don't know what came over me. I admit I was wrong.
-
When Huw Edwards logs on to see Young Boys Wankdorf, he's going to be really disappointed that it's only a football match
-
Here they come out
-
That music. For Villa!!!!
-
The horribly ironic timing of Gary's passing has only just hit home...
Seeing him jump on Peter Withe after the goal has just done me.
-
Come on you Villa boys.
-
GOOSEBUMPS
-
Here we go. Buckle up everyone it's going to be quite a ride in this competition.
Win this one for Gary please.
-
is this real?
-
For Gary.
-
Ghastly and gauche it may be, but it is exciting to hear that Handel knockoff before a Villa game.
-
GOOSEBUMPS
Yep me too.
-
Bogarde is the invisible man...
-
How has bogarde not got a pic! Shocking
-
It really is a Scotland kit!
-
Bogarde is the invisible man...
No graphic for him, poor lad.
-
Come on, Scotland!!!
-
'Your raclette is French, your raclette is French, fuck off Young Boys, your raclette is French!'
-
For Gary.

Fair play to YBs for this
-
First game in the Champions League and we're wearing fucking blue!!!

Gary Shaw song belted out

Thanks for posting :)
-
Shit strip for Villa m’lord. Stick to claret and blue or the white strip in future please.
-
Love that kit 😍
looks great on them would look shite on me
-
Bollocks is that a free kick.
-
never a FK
-
Thats not a foul ffs
-
We've given them too much respect and space on the ball so far.
-
Dive.
-
Didn't look like a foul to me.
-
Love that kit 😍
looks great on them would look shite on me
Im sure it would look great on you pal 😘
-
Comfortable for emi thankfully
-
Need to borrow their groundsmen to do my lawn
-
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GXsXJBmXUAAX2Wn?format=jpg&name=small)
-
That's two bollocks free kicks.
-
got the ball
-
Second non-freekick
-
This refs pathetic. Thats not a freekick. Second one now
-
Love that kit 😍
looks great on them would look shite on me
Im sure it would look great on you pal 😘
especially with my hairband :)
-
Referee needs training.
-
Too slow with that coubter attack
-
Come on Villa ffs!
-
Not a great start!
-
Not a great start tbh. The final pass has been a let down so far just like pau there
-
OK chaps, let’s stop pissing about.
-
We’re not fully used to the pace of this pitch yet are we?
-
Lame YB almost score
-
thats not out neither
-
Foul on Bogarde, please and thank you ref.
-
We’re too hesitant. Let’s commit some bodies forward boys. You can see us getting used to this pitch also.
-
This lot are a Pulis dreamteam and Villa not dealing with it well so far.
-
We're struggling a bit with this surface. It is faster and more slippery than grass
-
Not sure if it’s the pitch but we haven’t started great.
-
Why is it artificial?
-
Anyone got a stream link please?
-
Keeps bounding off our players when we try to control it
-
Anyone got a stream link please?
Check your PMs
-
yellow ffs
-
Ref's not giving us much so far.
-
Reminds me of some of the Conference games from last season. A bit nervy looking, overly cautious. Understandable, but hopefully it won't last long.
-
This is shit
-
We are not on it at all here
-
Got stretched there
-
I'll be interested to see what this ref does deem a yellow if he doesn't think that foul on Ramsay was one.
-
Bogarde looking a little vulnerable
-
Why is it artificial?
There's only one sports ground in Bern so all the sports have to share it. If it were grass it wouldn't last
-
For Gary.
(https://i.ibb.co/zGd1L9N/IMG-4006.jpg) (https://ibb.co/zGd1L9N)
Fair play to YBs for this
Classy. Great respect
-
Bogarde looking a little vulnerable
Yep…and digne hasn’t started well either
-
Officials giving it conference league vibes atm
-
Why is it artificial?
There's only one sports ground in Bern so all the sports have to share it. If it were grass it wouldn't last
Cheers. Shouldn't be allowed at this level mind
-
its this bloody pitch
-
Not been great, lacked control and composure.
-
shouldnt be bloody allowed , we had to put up with thir bloody rules to play in this , so it should be grass only to enter the champs league.
-
Juventus leading 1-0 vs PSV
-
Bogarde needs hooking already.
They are targeting him and he looks susceptible
-
The ref's just wanting and waiting to give them a crucial decision.
-
Cheating divers and the ref's buying it
-
Bogardes struggling here
-
Phew.
-
Bogarde is really struggling.
-
Great dive FFS.
-
Bogarde is miles out of his level
-
Passing shocking just now. Can’t seem to find our own players. Don’t think we’ll end up with 11 of our team on the pitch the way we’re playing. For all our possession, only 1 team looks like scoring and, it’s not us.
-
ffs was worried then
-
Thats 3 flops in the final third in the first 20 mins.. get this out of the fucking game. Clown ref taking the bait.
-
Ffs man this is not good. We havent started at all
-
Its all coming down our right. McGinn needs to help him out he's getting roasted
-
Its all coming down our right. McGinn needs to help him out he's getting roasted
Similar to Saturday - that combo struggled
-
Our passing to the forwards is terrible.
-
Pitch is shocking , if you have not got a proper pitch then you should be made to play somewhere that has.
-
Ooooooo ginny
-
John…FFS
-
Better
-
close super john
-
Young Boys are going down far too easily here.
-
Good effort.
I am surprised by how easy some people thought a CL game would be
-
Probably should have scored that
-
That looks the way to cut them up
-
He hurried that
-
Mcginn with a chance. Poor finish
But at least its a start
-
Better now
-
Horrible flash backs of the FA Cup Quarter Final at Oldham!
-
Better…..we are settling
-
Better.
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Horrible flash backs of the FA Cup Quarter Final at Oldham!
^shudders*
-
Yeeeeeeeesssssss

Yesssssss youri !!!!!
-
Was written in the stars!!

In other news, McKennie doubles Juve lead.
-

-
What a fucking set piece !
-
what a fucking corner
-
Our first ever CL goal boys and girls!!!!
Behave.
-
Youri!!!!!
-
They wouldnt play a world cup final on a pitch like this so why a CL game? The team that play on it every week has an enormous advantage.
-
What a player he's become for us now.
-
BSC Young Boys 0
Nanny McPhee 1
-
The goal
https://x.com/sterlstopvb/status/1836091389383213473
-
It had to be the number 8.
-

Just said the same thing!
-
Another brilliantly worked set piece.
-
McPheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
-
In other news, McKennie doubles Juve lead.
sign him up
-
It had to be the number 8.
❤️
-
It's like Rio has never watched Villa before.
-
Our first ever CL goal boys and girls!!!!
Behave.
It’s true. The CL in its current format didn’t exist in 82.
-
In other news, McKennie doubles Juve lead.
sign him up
Fill him up.
-
Juventus 2-0 up so we’re only second in the table. Emery out!
-
A Macphee masterpiece!
-
It's like Rio has never watched Villa before.
Or bothered to learn anything about the back room staff
-
Oh Ollie
-
Oh Ollie..
-
It's like Rio has never watched Villa before.
he is clueless and gets paid for it
oh ollie
-
Lovely strike
-
Hmm that was utter shite
-
Austin McPhee probably gets a £500 bonus for that set piece goal
-
Geoff Thomas special.
-
(https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GXsbbKXWwAAGpy0?format=png&name=small)
-
Oh ollie so bad there 🤦♂️
-
Fucking Watkins.
-
Despite his goals the other day, Watkins still doesn't seem quite at it yet
-
Crouchie trolling ollie 😂😂😂
-
Oh Watkins! WTF was that?
-
Bogarde did well there after a Konsa brain fart
-
Oh ollie so bad there 🤦♂️
Plastic pitch - couldn't get the ball to run, or control it.
-
They wouldnt play a world cup final on a pitch like this so why a CL game? The team that play on it every week has an enormous advantage.
Because they can choose from a number of different stadia to host a World Cup final, but Young Boys can't just build a different stadium?
-
Im almost 100% certain duran would score that
-
Another McPhee set piece special incoming
-
these are right fouling bananas
-
Oh ollie so bad there 🤦♂️
Plastic pitch - couldn't get the ball to run, or control it.
Yep, looked like bounce surprised him.

Suprising that such a wealthy country only has one stadium in that area
-
getting used to the shiity snooker table now
-
Pitch really slowing the ball down.
-
We are sitting off them too much
-
Well played Bogarde
-
Fucking shoot Rogers
-
Bogarde did well there. Good recovery
-
rogers take it yourself
-
Rogers wrong decision there
-
Fucking shoot Rogers
bit harsh
-
We are going to win this.
-
Well done JJ
-
We are going to win this.
The kiss of death
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
YESSSSSSSSSS
-
Assuming nothing from VAR
-
Yeeeeeeeasssssssss
-
We are going to win this.
The kiss of death
Or not :)
-
Yessssss, Ramsey.
-
wtf this is ace
-
Would have been a pen anyway. Nicely followed up JJ
-
Ramsay!!!
-
Yessssssss JJ !!!!!
-
Cool finish
-
Haha what the hell?
-
We are going to win this.
The kiss of death
You were saying?
-
ha ha JJ nearly missed that
-
Stands.
This CL malarkey is a piece of piss
-
GETTTT INNN"!!!!!
-
ha ha JJ nearly missed that
Perfect placement
-
JJ super switched on
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
-
That's one for Gary Shaw.
-
Our first ever CL goal boys and girls!!!!
Behave.
It’s true. The CL in its current format didn’t exist in 82.
In its current format it didn't exist last season.
-
Lovely stuff.
-
That was bizarre. Loving the continuous GS chant.
-
Come on me Villa babbies!
-
That’s one of the worst passes I’ve ever seen, what the fuck was the defender doing?!
-
Growing into this CL malarkey
-
Another miss by Ollie
-
We are going to win this.
The kiss of death
You were saying?
Erm there is still 60 minutes ?
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
Would you take that or take the goal?
-
Yes JJ
-
come on ollie put these away
-
Watkins assist......
-
2-0
https://x.com/vnxman8307/status/1836094268605079885
-
Fucking Watkins.
-
This is just filth right now 😍
-
Our first ever CL goal boys and girls!!!!
Behave.
It’s true. The CL in its current format didn’t exist in 82.
In its current format it didn't exist last season.
It’s still the fucking Champions League. Just enjoy the game FFS!
-
thats a poor finish by ollie
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
Would you take that or take the goal?
The goal every time!
-
Did the keeper get booked for that because that's a yellow if he gives a penalty.
-
Another miss by Ollie
Worked out ok though. Edit: sorry, just caught up.
-
is this oxford united in disguise? we've created loads halfs and full chances
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
Would you take that or take the goal?
Good question- as luiz isnt here i think ill take the goal 😂
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
I don't think it would be a red myself so prefer the goal.
-
Did the keeper get booked for that because that's a yellow if he gives a penalty.
No caution, somehow.. idk.
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
Would you take that or take the goal?
Would have been yellow anyway as was a genuine attempt to win the ball
-
Keeper fouls and gives away a penalty,is it still last man sending off or different for keepers
-
come on more Villa. we want to be top of the league.
-
Watkins could have been in double figures this season already, he really has missed some howlers...
-
Juventus beating PSV in other game 2-0
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
OLLIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
-
That could have been a red card and apen if JJ didnt score
Would you take that or take the goal?
Would have been yellow anyway as was a genuine attempt to win the ball
Yep, not a red in those circumstances.
-
Carlos for Bogarde at half time?
-
Olllliiieeeeeeee!!!!!!!
-
OLLLLLLLLLLLLLIIIEEEEEEEEE
-
Fuck me…game over
-
Keeper fouls and gives away a penalty,is it still last man sending off or different for keepers
Not if it's a genuine attempt to play the ball, so could only have been yellow.
-
Carlos for Bogarde at half time?
No
-
3-0 to the Villa boys....
-
Oh my word!
-
One way traffic boys.
-
We are going to win this.
The kiss of death
You were saying?
Erm there is still 60 minutes ?
Are you having trouble understanding that I think we will win this? Also there is no god, no jinx, no kiss of death, no oh you've said it now, just Aston Villa playing football better than them.
-
We are top the league, I said we are top of the league
-
Oh hello! 0-3
-
Ollie puts us top of the league!!
-
fuck me
gary shaw is looking down loving this
-
Or VAR
-
Ollie scores at last!!!
-
Omfg !!!!!!!
Yessssssssssssee
-
Fucking Watkins!!!!
-
OLLLLLIEEEE!!!!!
-
Stands
-
I did say the surface wouldn't have an impact, now we're used to it we look superb.
-
We’re destroying them!
-
Disallowed
-
Or VAR
Fuck. Surely off his chest. Disallowed
-
Just realised goal difference is quite important in this format
-
How can he possibly get out of the way of that?
-
Stands
Disallowed
Someone?
-
It doesn't stand, This is weird.
-
Ruled out.
-
No where near his arm
-
Of course it’s ruled out. Ollie so unlucky. Was not even handball!!
-
Bullshit decision
-
That’s no way it’s handball. Very poor decision
-
Oh fuck ioff
-
never handball VAR u cnuts
-
Think it hit his chest the minor touch of his hand as it came down
-
How can he possibly get out of the way of that?
UEFA is still any handball by scorer whether accidental or not. If he had squared it for someone else it would have been given.
-
Honestly never hand ball
-
How the hell can they c
Disallow that, useless twats
-
Thats fucking riding
-
wtf.. this is insanely unprofessional.
-
Stands
Yesssssssssssssss!!!!!!!
-
The officials and var been shite
-
The fuck? Corrupt arseholes.
-
Never handball. Absolute bollocks.
-
Ally McCoist apoplectic at that decision
-
Doesn’t hit his arm, bollocks decision
-
Never handball. Objectively.
-
Absolute bollox decision. I thought they were not overturning decisions that weren't obvious errors?
-
Never handball.
-
Think it hit his chest the minor touch of his hand as it came down
There is no way can they know that had touched his hand or arm.
-
Need this pitch at VP.
Taken to it like a duck to water.
-
3-0 games done ffs. You have var and you still cant get decision right you useless wankers
-
Certainly didn't look like handball on the replay. What has VAR seen that we haven't.
-
Absolute bollox decision. I thought they were not overturning decisions that weren't obvious errors?
That is FA, not UEFA. But handball is not usually subjective but absolute in UEFA guides.
-
There should be a Var overruling var
-
So we've still got that most dangerous of leads...
-
Tielemans has been magnificent again.
-
Conspiracy time. In the final, they will disallow our goals for nothing so that Real Madrid win again.
-
Slow mo on TNT is quite clear, misses his arm and hits his chest
-
They clearly didn't look at the camera angle from the front. Stevie Wonder could have called that. Wankers.
-
There should be a Var overruling var
VarVar.
-
Well that was ok after a ropey start.
-
Slow mo on TNT is quite clear, misses his arm and hits his chest
Its unbelievable. When goals scored could be crucial at the end these kind of decisions are pathetic when you have VAR
-
Brilliant half. Fantastic. Very happy with that performance
-
More of the same in the second half please Villa
-
The ball clearly hit his ribcage.
-
There should be a Var overruling var
VarVar.
Ya ya
-
Surely if it wasn't a goal it should have been a pen for the 1st shot hitting their defenders arm?
-
Well. Young Mr Rogers is quite the player isn't he?
-
Slow mo on TNT is quite clear, misses his arm and hits his chest
Its unbelievable. When goals scored could be crucial at the end these kind of decisions are pathetic when you have VAR
Yep, it could cost you literally millions in the grand scheme of things.
-
VAR will always be bullshit as long as they have blind twats still making the decisions.
-
They clearly didn't look at the camera angle from the front. Stevie Wonder could have called that. Wankers.
Unless there is another angle showing it bouncing off his chest and onto his arm, that should not have been called.
-
It should be 0-3 but Villa have been magnificent here! We look deadly going forwards. So bloody proud of them right now. Come on.
-
thats given to Mbappe
-
Should be 3-0. Need to stand up to whatever they throw at us early on in the 2nd and see ourselves home to a comfortable win.
-
Great half. But not getting the decisions, not just the 3rd goal but generally.
-
After an unconvincing first 20 minutes its been complete domination. They can't handle Rodgers and Ramsey and there are surely more goals in this for us.
The overturned goal is a joke. VAR at best is guessing that it hit Watkins hand/arm. Absolutely nothing conclusive to overturn the on field decision.
-
Happy with that apart from that var against Ollie's goal. Never handball and you'd think the standard of refereeing would be better than that.
-
Grew into the game the longer it went on. Rogers has looked dangerous. He's cutting right through them at the moment.
-
Once we got used of the pitch we looked really good and made them look like spurs
-
We are by far the better team now, and are managing this really well.
2-0 is that scary score and next goal will be crucial….we need a third.
-
I thought VAR was for clear and obvious errors. Where was clear and obvious error?
Its such bullshit man
-
Remember watching champions league games in the past and its arguable that some of the decisions in this comp are worse than the domestic ones at times....and that was one.

Totally agree on the highlights I saw. They have assumed it hit his arm after hitting his chest when it could have easily just dropped naturally with the spin.
-
I haven't watched CL games for years. Is this how VAR works normally? Fucking disgraceful.
-
Fucking shoot Rogers
He's got to stop passing to Watkins, it's not as if Watkins is getting himself in good positions. Such a waste.
Shocking decision on Watkins goal. The one time he gets it right and is robbed by VAR. Idiots.
-
It clearly hits his chest bit may have brushed Ollie's hand (very slightly) to stop it rebounding away from from him. That's the only possible handball I can see it being.
-
VAR total Blues again.
-
we can win this champions league
-
It proves that VAR is just shit wherever it’s used, if you still have fucking idiots making decisions
-
duran 20 mins here would score a hatrick
-
Fatty McKennie scored Juve's second goal.
-
It took the players 20 minutes largely because of the pitch, but they've worked out how vastly superior they are to the home team.
-
Ropey start, then superb. Should be 3 clearly. Rogers becoming something special.
-
we can win this champions league
Fucking hell!!!
We've been very good but a bit of perspective. We are playing a team bottom of the Swiss league 😂
-
VAR ref team are French. So either Lille fans or still dislike Martinez?
-
Fuck knows how they decided that it was conclusive enough to overrule

fuck it . Im enjoying myself
-
Strong praise on the radio from Pat Nevin about the way we've taken control and how we've adapted to the pitch.
But he's mystified as to refereing and VAR decisions.
Need to keep it really tight at the start of the 2nd half and then knock another one in to seal the deal. Then we can bring the subs on.
Ollie and Rogers both deserve a goal.
-
Love the passion austin!
New contract for that man

Fucking hell!!!

Fair play. The last 20 minutes have been great
-
During the Euros, they used the ball sensor to detect a faint handball. They might have done the same here as it is the only explanation if not dodgy. But the type of thing that needs explaining anyway.
-
If we can see this through and get a point vs munich we are in a really good position
-
Anyone know if you can get a Villa kit with acorns on the front?
-
We will beat Bayern Munich.
-
My stream has gone up the spout! Any help?
-
Anyone know if you can get a Villa kit with acorns on the front?
Not officially I suspect. They might auction them off like they did with the pre-season releases and other specials.
-
We will beat Bayern Munich.
We’ve done it before…

Like you say , they got used of the snooker table and started to hit the ball around like alex higgins.
could easily be 5 up
-
We will beat Bayern Munich.
We always do.
-
Fuck knows how they decided that it was conclusive enough to overrule
https://x.com/palashsingh_16/status/1836097916856909977
Absolute joke of a decision.
-

Nick a 1:0 like last time and we've nearly qualified, one off the shin again please
-
Once we got used of the pitch we looked really good and made them look like spurs
Damian Delaney pointed out that Emery switched it after 15 mins or so when Onana was down. Called Ollie over to instruct Emi to start launching it long into the space behind their press. It's worked.
-

That's a good shout. Although they also showed the snick thing as part of the coverage?

Have you got tissues nearby?
-
Carlos on for Bogarde.
-
carlos on - bogarde off
-
Carlos for Bogarde at half time?
ahem?!
-
wouldnt be an injury mccoist . he was struggling and konsa will go there
-
Makes sense. Bogarde looked a bit at sea in the first 20 minutes
-
Hopefully just a tactical switch and not a injury. Bogarde did well there
-
the girlfriend said why you so excited , they are only young kids are they not?
-
Could Onana stop getting hurt every time he moves? Ta!
-
What is the point of VAR?
-
Hopefullt Digne /Maatsen play further forward as match gpes on.
-
That was a horrible challenge on Ollie by the goalkeeper. Don't know why he wasn't booked.
-
Rogers thinking he is Duran
-
the girlfriend said why you so excited , they are only young kids are they not?
My missus said why you so excited for a uhder 18 game 🤦♂️
-
Rogers is great when he runs at players, not so much when he shoots/passes. If he sorts that he'll be unstoppable.
-
"They're going to keep coming, given how open Young Boys are through the middle."
-

then i said the name of the ground , which she said fuck off you liar lol
-
"They're going to keep coming, given how open Young Boys are through the middle."
Probably been commented on but someone gave someone a tug earlier.
-
I just love watching Tielemans play football.

Same, especially as I'm one of those weird nerds who loves a good pass as much as a shot or a goal. And his passes are beautiful. What a bargain, getting him for "free".
-
Think I saw their coach yank one of the Young Boys off at half time.
Think he came onto the pitch ar the same time as Carlos
-

Has Unai pulled anyone off at half-time?
-
Duran is coming
-
Here comes Duran!
-
Panda alert!
-
You just know Duran will score once he comes on
-
The chaos Panda is ready.....
-
McGinn having a nightmare second half
-
Poor from the captain there, don’t like him on the right
-
McGinn, poor.

There was no need for any knee-jerk off reactions.
-
Mcginns not been goid this second half. Losing the ball alot
-
Given he’s so clever and pays such attention to detail it always seems a bit arbitrary to me that Unai always makes subs exactly on 60 min mark!
-
Think I saw their coach yank one of the Young Boys off at half time.

What in the name of fuck does this even mean?
-
Young Boys bringing a couple off
-
Time for SJ to leave the arena methinks.
-

They made a sub at half time too
-
Oooooh close
-

It's to get the bonus point for playing an hour in fantasy league.
-

that was on edwards phone
-
McGinn useless there
-

The coach had got one of the young boys playing in the hole, but he decided to pull him off instead
-
Great save
-
McPhee Out!!
-
JJs been down a few minutes now, foot stood on again
-
Hope Ramsey's okay.
-
Jacob holding his foot always worries me
-
FFS please tell me that’s not JJ’s bad foot.
-
Watkins is clearly injured so why the fuck is he starting?
-
Hope this isn’t JJ’s dodgy foot
-
stamp on JJ there sore
-
Ramsey, metatarsal again? - God, I hope not
-
Looks painful
-
Looked nasty
-
These are scumbags.
-
Watkins is clearly injured so why the fuck is he starting?
Was that not from where the keeper booted him?
-
Didn't look like anyone made contact with Onana there. Not sure what happened him?
-
Watkins is clearly injured so why the fuck is he starting?

Ah, maybe.
-
Save Emi
-
They’re constantly fouling us
-
FFS, careless play from Carlos there.
-
What the fuck is Carlos doing
Twat
-
Didn't look like anyone made contact with Onana there. Not sure what happened him?
I think he got a slight clip by the guys arm, nothing to it but footballers don't take much to go down.
-
carlos doing his normal cock up
-
Didn't look like anyone made contact with Onana there. Not sure what happened him?
Commentator said Onana fouled their player but came off worse
-
WTF was Carlos thinking there?
-
Carlos ffs wake the hell up
-
Carlos gonna be Carlos
-
Made up for it. We're taking the sting out of the game with lots of stoppages.
-
Carlos being Carlos. He is rubbish.
-
YB resorting to kicking anything moves
-
We have gone a bit sloppy.
-
And that's why we are all desperate for Mings to get upto speed ASAP.
-
My Arabic commentator has just said "Tony Morley, Peter Withe, Brian Moore". I had no idea I spoke Arabic.
-
They are building a bit of confidence here. Save again from Emi.
-
Oh Emi. :D
-
Could be 10 mins of stoppages as well this half.
-
Could be doing with a 3rd goal any time now.
-
Are we tiring ?
-
Cmon Villa. Get a third and see this out without further worry.
-
This second halfs been a bit dull. Think get maatsen and buendia on
-
Wankdorf, wank team, wank pitch. Hope we never have to play here again...
-
Need another one.
Then make other subs
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
PANDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
-
Yes, and again.
-
Panda!!!
-
Duran's been very quiet, should have sold him
-
Paaaaaaaannnnnddddddaaaaaa
-
world class
-
JD!!!!!
-
Will be disallowed
-
Might be disallowed ...
-
Well assuming VAR doesn't fuck us
-
Yesssssssss pandaaaaaa !!!
-
What a finish. Was handball though.
-
Super sub.
-
if ollie could finish like that
-
Another cracking finish by Duran, such a shame it's going to be ruled out...
-
Duran booked
-
The other one shouldn't have been disallowed so this one should stand.
-
Time for that bamboo plantation in Aston
Park
-
Guess who..
-
Off to the screen
-
Yessss
-
What a great finisher he is. I know it won’t count, but still…
-
if ollie could finish like that
Let’s not get silly.
-
That’ll get disallowed.
-
This is getting fucking disallowed. Ffs onana
-
Disallowed. Again.
-
Disallowed
-
Fuck sake
-
Grrrrr
-
Yep it’s going to be disallowed. Annoying, but right decision.
-
Rightfully ruled out this time but what a finish that was.
-
Should be 4-0 now
-
go back to 1982 ffs
-
Why the fuck has he gone to the screen for this one bit not the Watkins one?
-
Fucking these accidental handballs are just utter fucking bullshit
-
Onana you silly sausage
-
How far back can you go?
-
So hang on does Duran’s card get rescinded?
-
They are doing Everything to try to ruin the game.
-
Absolute bollocks. That was what 2 minutes before thw goal ??
-
It was miles before the goal. It’s just not in the spirit of the game at all
-
Two excellent team goals ruled out
-
2 minutes after the goal and gets disallowed. They are fucking us big time
-
Stupid yellow card
-
This is a sham performance by the officials.
-
There was a possible handball the last time we played in this competition so our next one will be ruled out for that.
-
Why does Duran get booked for celebration for goal that wasn’t given but keeper wasn’t booked for foul before Ramsey goal because penalty wasn’t given?
-
If the goal is ruled out then why is Duran’s yellow card allowed to stand?
-
VAR is utter shit.
But what a finish by Jhon. Superb.
-
FFS, how far back. There was 5 other passes since then.
-
Unai rightly upset that the game went on so long after the handball. Unnecessary expended effort and injury risk
-
Torres jumping under the ball and Carlos wrestling their player.
We need to stop fucking about at the back
-
Duran needs to calm down a bit, the crowd riled him into a rash shot there.
-
I'm writing a stiff letter to someone tomorrow
-
I bloody love Duran .
-
Need to keep our heads, there's going to be a decent chunk of added time.
-
If the goal is ruled out then why is Duran’s yellow card allowed to stand?
I'm guessing it's because they are given for behaviours, which are not necessarily dependent on the situation of the game
-
Who invented the nickname Panda and why?
-
Duran needs to get into the box, draw a foul and put the resultant pen through the netting.
-
Gwan, Diego. Giving as good as they were for a while.
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
ONANAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
-
We have been excellent, should be out of sight, some excellent individual performances
-
Lovely move
-
3-0 Onana.
-
OH MY GOD!
-
Disallow that fucker !!!!!
-
Well done diego
-
Why does Duran get booked for celebration for goal that wasn’t given but keeper wasn’t booked for foul before Ramsey goal because penalty wasn’t given?
Good point. Maybe some refs can advice
-

If the ref was competent the situation would never have happened.
I don't mind that one being disallowed but they took it way too far back and they already fucked us with the earlier one.
-
Onana!!!
-
YESSS!
-
fucking beauty
-
ONNNNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAA
-
Rule that one out I fucking dare you!
-
What a hit!
-
That's a beauty of a strike too.
-
Great strike
-
Check that one, VAR!
-
Superb strike
-
Onanaaaaaaa
Yesssssss
What a fucking goal
-
av some of that ref
-
Goal. VAR checking if it breaches Switzerland's strict wartime neutrality rules.
-
Checking a Martinez handball.......
-
they going to go back to the 75th min now :)
-
Great shot!
-
At last, goal number 3.
-
Just want Big D to get his goal now.
-
Rule that one out ya twats
-
I said it earlier, I'll say it again, Tielemans superb again. His touch is so good, even in the first 20 minutes when everyone else was struggling.
-
Great goal
-
Onana is finally the 20 goals a season player we've wanted for 40 years
-
Youri has been absolutely top class tonight, this is where he belongs
-
Rule that one out I fucking dare you!
They might go back to the handball before Duran's goal again.
-
Text book clean hit for all you youngsters out there
-
Nice.
-
Goal. VAR checking if it breaches Switzerland's strict wartime neutrality rules.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
-
Youri has been a rolls Royce , with a Ferrari engine and a Maserati heart.
He has been fucking magnificent tonight
-
What a beauty!!!!
-
Who invented the nickname Panda and why?
The height of dreadfulness
-
Jaysus...I wouldn't be playing Buendia on a plastic pitch, just coming back from injury!
-
youri was excellent
-
Not a bad set of subs to bring on!
-
Youri has been absolutely top class tonight, this is where he belongs
Most of the team have been, brilliant performance.
-
Juventus 3-1 PSV. We are top as it stands !
-
Rule that one out I fucking dare you!

Wouldn't surprise me. Officials seem desperate to keep the scoreline down.
-
Youri has been a rolls Royce , with a Ferrari engine and a Maserati heart.

This with bells on!
-
Not much rest for anyone bar Watkins. Interesting to see how we line up against Wolves.
-
Emery keeps his job by the skin of his teeth as Juve have just conceded and Villa go top!!
-
It has to be said this has been a masterclass.
-
3-0
https://x.com/vikbrowlsvb/status/1836111386667020645
-
Just got in. Seen we are fucking ace, as usual. UTV!!
-
Not much rest for anyone bar Watkins. Interesting to see how we line up against Wolves.
I'd give them two days off
-
They didn’t cancel that one for Emi Martinez handling the ball? Surprised.
-
6 mins added
-
Skills from Buendia there
-
Why does Duran get booked for celebration for goal that wasn’t given but keeper wasn’t booked for foul before Ramsey goal because penalty wasn’t given?
Good point. Maybe some refs can advice
Don't know. He was about to give the penalty so he obviously saw it as a foul.
-
The 4th official has messed the subs up by the looks of it
What a fucking bizarre evening this has been...
-
Fourth official held the wrong number up and took the wrong player off? Officials have been abysmal tonight.
-
So an 8 scored for Gary, 41 for the amount of years since we last graced the contest and 24 for the current year and crop of players.
-
The death of the screamer you say?
-
Penalty?
Edit - No
-
Filth by Emi
-
If it was handball against Ollie then it’s handball against the defender there
-
Let's see this out now.
-
The team made shaw proud tonight
-
If it was handball against Ollie then it’s handball against the defender there
No, because there are different rules for defenders and attackers.
-
If it was handball against Ollie then it’s handball against the defender there
Goals scored are penalised whether accidental or not. Defensive handballs HAVE to be intentional / un-natural positions.
-
Ooof, YB have Barca and Inter to play next.
-
Anyone watching munich game after? Scout report on our next opponents
-
Excellent performance tonight. We should get one of these pitches.
-
If it was handball against Ollie then it’s handball against the defender there
You can guarantee these "rules" will only be applied to our detriment.

PSV score a last consolation so we are top of the league.

Lovely start.
Bossed the Swiss champions.
Didn’t need to get out of first gear.
-

Emery, most probably.

Well they weren't when the Arse goal was ruled out last season to give us 3 points.
-
It seems the Arabic word for control is 'control'.
-
FT boys. Nice job everyone
-
Top of the league.
-
That'll do nicely
-
we look better than the conference team already
-
Excellent performance tonight. We should get one of these pitches.
Jesus no...
