Apart from Proctor, that bench is Fire! We're gonna win the fuckin league!
-
Imagine if Mcginn Onana and Tielemans were available!
-
Glad to see Mings ahead of Torres after his f up last week.
-
Like the line up - we need to win this!
-
A few biggish calls there with Mings instead of Torres and to a lesser degree starting Watkins over Tammy. The bench looks much stronger at least.
-
Any one going for a swim?
-
ah Mings over Torres - interesting.
-
I would have liked Alysson and gone with one keeper on the bench.
-
Happy enough with that. We need to find our goal scoring touch. Could really do with a win.
-
Like the line up - we need to win this!
Shame Sancho starts.
-
Hope Ty doesn't make a hick.Would have preferred Lindelof
-

Possibly going for a bit of strength, and resting Torres and Maatsen for the Brighton game.
-
All the Mings fans forgetting the horror show against Saltzberg then?
Why a 3rd keeper when we have talented youngsters is beyond me.
Not sure Allyson actually exists.
-
Hope Ty doesn't make a hick.Would have preferred Lindelof
Indeed and last time he started at Bournemouth (I think?) he could easily have been sent off. We need him to be fully on it.
-
Their new Brazilian wonder kid is starting.
-
Yes it was a bad mistake against Salzburg. But he was magnificent after that, and even better in Turkey.
Hopefully that’s his one for the season out of the way.
-
Glad to see Mings ahead of Torres after his f up last week.
Yep because Mings didnt make a much bigger f**k up against Salzburg. Horses for courses I reckon.
-
When Mings plays its Desperate Dan stuff.
-
Not sure why Mings is ahead of Lindelof
-
Man U are now two points back. We need to do what we did at Newcastle and a get a much needed win. Those two awful home defeats have been a massive and unexpected blow. We need to get back to winning ways again.
-
Like the line up - we need to win this!
Shame Sancho starts.
Indeed
-
What fuck up did Torres do last week?
-
Pau has been one of our key players for two and a half years. I really do not understand some of the comments above now do I understand doubting Emery's selection.
-
This feels like a bit of a pivotal game now with Man Utd on this run. A win would be very welcome indeed. And if it could be a comfy one my blood pressure would be thankful.

I think it’s that.
-
Torres cocked up against Everton and Brentford; Mings cocked up against Salzburg. Neither have been perfect lately
-
ah Mings over Torres - interesting.
Horses for courses...Mings didn't hold back here last season.
Not impressed with Sancho being given yet another chance on the right. Our squad looks a lot stronger

I think Sancho is getting better to be honest, hope he puts a shift in for 60 minutes before Bailey comes on.
-
Torres cocked up against Everton and Brentford; Mings cocked up against Salzburg. Neither have been perfect lately
Again, what was the cockup against Brentford? Are people complaining because he blocked a cross and it went back to the attacker instead of it pinging up to Tammy for him to turn and hammer in a goal the other way?
-
Any one going for a swim?
I'd like to if anyone could help.
-
Good to see Ollie and Onana back, won't be easy today, they've only lost 2 league matches at home and looked very good against Liverpool.
-
Might be mixing it up due to the injuries. Go more solid. Wouldn't be surprised to see Martinez going long a lot today.
-
Any one going for a swim?
I'd like to if anyone could help.
Me too.
It’s been a long time since my last one
-
Worried about this one, we are definitely looking over our shoulders now. If the ManUre-Carrick bubble could burst sometime soon that would be great.
-
Does anyone have a trickle please?
-
Looking quite dry out there.
-
Worried about this one, we are definitely looking over our shoulders now. If the ManUre-Carrick bubble could burst sometime soon that would be great.
Wasnt going to burst against the shite of spurzzzz
Afternoon everyone.
-
Worried about this one, we are definitely looking over our shoulders now. If the ManUre-Carrick bubble could burst sometime soon that would be great.
I'd be pleasantly surprised if we finish above them now. Think we've lost too much quality to mid/long-term injuries and they are flying.
-
Hope Ty doesn't make a hick.Would have preferred Lindelof
He aint a leftie, surprisingly for a Swede.
-
Any one going for a swim?
I'd like to if anyone could help.
Me too.
It’s been a long time since my last one
And me
-
Please stay fit Onana
-
I know Sexual says to pipe down on any perceived anti-Villa media bias but 5Live chose the Yanited v Fulham game last weekend for main comms and not Villa v Brentford despite ours being the more important game and at the moment the main headline on BBC Football is "Arsenal host Sunderland & Chelsea face Wolves among five games" - Chelsea are lower than us, so they shouldn't be taking precedence. Can't believe I'm paying my license, I might rescind.
-
Couple of lovely touches from Watkins already. He looks up for it
-
Trickle please
-
Would take a drop too if ones going
-
Could I request one as well please
-
And me please
-
And me please
-
Close for them. Martinez Fcuk up.
-
Our midfield is so meh without Kamara, Tielemans and McGinn.
-
Konsa off the line!
-
Chelsea ahead. Cnuts
-
Miles off, lino is a twat not putting the flag up.
-
Konsa off the line!
Miles offside, but the flag stayed down until Konsa nearly injured himself with the desperate (and brilliant) clearance.
-
Yeah another injury we don’t need.
-
They're going long and quick.We need to get a grip
-
Far too open here-Very stretched game, a couple of keystone cop moments so far...Just had an amazing clearance from Konsa, subsequently offside...
-
Not a great start
-
Buendia lost out there
-
Never a free kick
-
Only a matter of time if we don’t be a grip on this sharpish.
-
Never a free kick
It's Taylor, we're getting fuck all out of the twat.
-
Definitely coming for them if we don't sharpen up-6 attempts so far for them
-
Haven't seen that yellow GK shirt before.
-
We are having no luck whatsoever right now. Every fucking bounce of the ball is going against us on top of the injuries.
-
Buendia is so bloody lightweight. Him and sancho offering nothing
-
typical Vila . great cross no one to tap it in.
-
6 attempts to 0.
-
Has Ollie won a 50-50 yet?
-
Offside Ollie.
-
offside villa
-
Haven't seen that yellow GK shirt before.
Nice
-
HONKAHONKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
-
GAOAOOLLLL
-
what a goal greta finish and sancho brill
-
Lovely fucking jubbly
-
FINISH THAT
-
Yes! Great from Rogers and Sancho
-
Cracking goal
-
GTFI!!!
-
Yesssssssss get the fuck in!
-
Excellent goal, superb build-up play.
-
Is there any commentary as no babbling
-
Yesssss Morgs
-
Yeesss
-
Cracking goal
-
what a goal greta finish and sancho brill
I must have missed this signing on deadline day!
-
MORGANN!!!
Beautiful goal.
-
Get in Morgan son!
-
Like the line up - we need to win this!
Shame Sancho starts.
Glad he did!!
-
Buendia is so bloody lightweight. Him and sancho offering nothing
I think sancho has been pretty good
-
Brilliant. Started crap but suddenly came to life in the last few minutes.
-
Haven't seen that yellow GK shirt before.
Nice
nice retro vibes
-
Buendia is so bloody lightweight. Him and sancho offering nothing
I think sancho has been pretty good
Deffo
-
And well done Sancho
-
At least we aren't the only ones that concede from the first shot on target.
-
Beautiful goal
-
Anyone got a link please?
-
Same ^
-
Should of been 2
-
Another great chance
-
Watkins needs to step up.Being bullied
-
How did we not score there? Great move.
-
Wtf was that Ollie? It was obvious where that ball was going.
-
Should be two up. Buendia doing well this time.
-
Watkins loves being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
-
It'll be interesting to see Tammy in those situations.
-
martinez palms another to a striker
-
bournmth hit bar
-
What's with Martinez parrying?
-
Letting them get far too many shots away.
-
What's with Martinez parrying?
Moved a lot in the air
-
that was a right shove
-
What's with Martinez parrying?
For the cameras.
-
Pen surely?
-
Thought that was a pen
-
Taylor, what a c**t.
-
How the f do you get a penalty
-
Wtf was that Ollie? It was obvious where that ball was going.
THats what Tammy is good for.
-
That's gotta be a penalty, you can't just barge into someone like that, but again, Taylor so no fucking chance.
-
Pen surely? Oh no it's us so of course not.
-
I see it’s another stick our two fingers up at xg game again
-
Taylor hates us
-
I always thought if you barged someone from behind it's a foul. Pretty simple really.
-
Taylor hates us
The feeling's mutual.
-
Taylor hates us
He's not even subtle, never gives us anything.
-
That’s about two or three instances we’ve had this season when our players have just been shoved to the ground in the box with the opposition player being nowhere near the ball.
-
Taylor hates us
Feelings mutual
-
Is the clock fast on the posts? 1538 on my phone but it says I posted this at 1541.
-
Pen surely? Oh no it's us so of course not.
Not had one all season. I think we are the only team with that dubious record.
-
Is the clock fast on the posts? 1538 on my phone but it says I posted this at 1541.
It's behind me...
-
Is the clock fast on the posts? 1538 on my phone but it says I posted this at 1541.
Yep.
-
Is the clock fast on the posts? 1538 on my phone but it says I posted this at 1541.
Yep.
Yeah it's been like it a while.
-
Take Buendia off at ht. He'll fuck this up for us by getting sent off.
-
Maybe if the useless twat did his job properly he wouldn't have to 'have a talk' with the captain's about all the needle.
-
Onana in injured shocker
-
Pen surely? Oh no it's us so of course not.
Not had one all season. I think we are the only team with that dubious record.
No wonder we're shit at them if we never get to practise!
-
Pen surely? Oh no it's us so of course not.
Not had one all season. I think we are the only team with that dubious record.
Yet fouled the most .
-
Onana in injured shocker
Has he gone off?
-
Bournemouth fans cheering at Digne being hit at close range with the ball.Absolute wankers
-
onana down
-
Bet Onana doesn't make the 2nd half.
-
Looks like he’s done his left buttock
-
Being outplayed at the moment.
Not sure how bmouth are finding so much space
-
H&V clock is running ahead.
-
Looks like he’s done his left buttock
ARSE!!
-
Looks like he’s done his left buttock
Scientifically known as a glute.

Anyone with a stream let me know.

Us and spuds I think
-
Taylor doing his utmost not to give us a free kick
-
Ref giving us absolutely nothing
-
Getting absolutely nothing from this ref.
-
3mins added
-
Taylor supports Newcastle doesn’t he no wonder he hates us.
-

Great player but he's made of bone china.
-
terrible header ollie
-
terrible header ollie
I cursed him by mentioning he had some nice touches at the start.
He's been iffy since.
-
Handled that half quite well I thought.Tammy for Ollie and we'll trounce them
-
terrible header ollie
I cursed him by mentioning he had some nice touches at the start.
He's been iffy since.
That's the sort of thing Smirker would have done.
-
I hate it when Taylor refs us, you just know
-
If he’s actually fit, I’d bring on Barkley for Buendia for the second half.
-
We’ll need at least one more.
-
In a good position here .
Buendia and Ollie need to do more , maybe Tammy on.
Sancho and Rogers been good.
Onana been ok too.
We have been bloody sloppy at times but could have had at least 3 goals .
-
I hate it when Taylor refs us, you just know
Him and Oliver are supposed to be the best and don't they know it. Arrogant pair of twats.
-

So could they, that’s the concern
-
Playing well, possibly Sancho's best 45 minutes for us thus far.
The ref is a complete twat - it is happening so often now that maybe the conspiracy theorists are correct !
-
It’s difficult to argue that we’re not getting cheated. That was an obvious penalty (and he have a foul against for a lesser push about 1 minute later). The non offside at the end. The trip on Sancho.
Add to it that we’re getting zero luck and it’s quite stressful!! Every bounce of a breaking ball goes to an opponent player.
Bournemouth are right bunch of niggle ****** too.
-
Should be 3 up.
Bit of a hole in midfield, Onana not punching his weight but been excellent in our box. We're not winning enough 2nd balls but churlish really, we're playing some great stuff.
-
That was their best half because Unai won’t allow that again. He will want control
Sancho probably had his best half so far and interestingly not stuck out on the wing. We do miss Bouba and Youri though
-
Sky soccer Saturday host ‘Arsenal going 9 point clear of Manchester City as it stands. Bournemouth 0 Aston Villa 1. Elsewhere it could be a significant day in the relegation battle.’
-
Not been at our best - but we look good going forward.
They're decent coming forward too - but they're not great at the back, I imagne both teams will get chances. Need to calm Buendia down a bit.
-
Not bad considering we're playing against 12 men....
-
Sky soccer Saturday host ‘Arsenal going 9 point clear of Manchester City as it stands. Bournemouth 0 Aston Villa 1. Elsewhere it could be a significant day in the relegation battle.’
this is why I use a differrent method of watching games - fuck Sky. Boring agenda driven wankers.
-
We don’t seem to be able to play the patient possession football now so have adapted our style. May be effective in a different way!
-
Anyone with a stream let me know.
The one you sent me worked eventually after a bit of faffing around.
-
By the way we’ve lost 3 of our last six games. But it’s okay for Man City to have won one in their last six. In the league.
-
The sooner Sky and TNT lose their coverage the better
-
Like the line up - we need to win this!
Shame Sancho starts.
A real shame.
His improvement continues. We’re looking very dangerous going forward.
-
We will almost certainly need more goals to win this.
-
We never get penalties. Yet watching highlights of the Chelsea game, Cole Palmer has basically built a career around them considering how many his team get each season.
-
I'd love a clean sheet tbh
-

Sky soccer Saturday host ‘Arsenal going 9 point clear of Manchester City as it stands. Bournemouth 0 Aston Villa 1. Elsewhere it could be a significant day in the relegation battle.’
It's infuriating. Also Sky's interpretation of being "clear" annoys me.
-
If he’s actually fit, I’d bring on Barkley for Buendia for the second half.
Little Emi has been near perfect linking up with Rogers. Not his fault Taylor is a twat and Bournemouth are trying to bully us.
I'd give it 70 minutes then bring on Barkley and Tammy.
-

It's infuriating. Also Sky's interpretation of being "clear" annoys me.
What’s even more annoying is Spurs still being associated with the “big six” and they are getting closer each week to another season a few points off the bottom three.
-

I’m sure everyone would

I'd love a clean sheet tbh
well after fene and brown ales , lets hope we get another.

Good - always like seeing my prejudices proved wrong!
-
Not many mentions of Luiz - how's he doing?
-
The good news Onana is coming on. :)
-
Onana starts the half, no changes.
-
Not many mentions of Luiz - how's he doing?
Quietly effective

Who's the lad with the MH initials in a Villa coat next to SUE on the sidelines?
-
stop the sloppy passes
-
Who's the lad with the MH initials in a Villa coat next to SUE on the sidelines?
That's Morten Harket, he's been doing our video analysis since the hits dried up. He prefers to be in the dugout because the sun always shines on his TV.
-
Buendia's got to be careful in his running battle with Jimenez..Couple of lunges, stretches for the ball...won it but he's one mistimed away from another yellow
-
Cack
-
I'd love a clean sheet tbh
well after fene and brown ales , lets hope we get another.
Lost me there Pablo
I lose myself alot.
-
Fuck.
-
Watkins would try the patience of a saint
Ironically so does all the complaining about him.
-
Bollocks.
-
That is beyond wank defending
-
poor Villa
-
FFS we never keep clean sheets. We’re going to struggle now.
-
Some of the worst defending you'll see all year.
-
Fuck off. What was Martinez doing?
-
Limp from Digne.
-
what the fuck is luca doing
-
Oh, has Digne just given up ?
-
We're far too open with this line-up. Midfield doesn't offer enough of a screen.
-
Fuck off. What was Martinez doing?
Forget him, what is Digne and Mings doing.
-
Fuck off. What was Martinez doing?
Mings,Digne
-
What a fuck up. How was he sllowed to run that far? FFS.
-
Bournemouth always score - obviously we need at least a second now.
-
Absolutely no effort to tackle or send him outside whatsoever. That’s pathetic defending from Digne.
-
That is absolutely fucking woeful defending, utterly pathetic
-
Gonna lose this aren't we?
-
Terrible from Digne
-
Gonna lose this aren't we?
Probably. We’re not scoring many of late, hopefully we can respond.
-
Luiz did exactly what Digne did down that side about a minute before. So poor from both of them.
-
Digne looked like he gave up.
-
All that was missing there was the red carpet and a fucking bell boy inviting him in.
-
Well that was... something by Digne
-
That defending was so bad it looked like an AI glitch. Not great from Emi either
-
They all leave it to each other and the scorer mishits it too. Total wank.
-
Assisted by Anthony Taylor.
-
It was like he could not be bothered
-
ffs get tammy on for ollie
-
Watkins needs hooking sharpish
-
River gone
-
Ollie half asleep today.
-
Not 2
-
Offside unless VAR changes it.
-
Does anyone have a link to our goal ?
-
Disallowed
-
We’ll lose this.
-
Any new water courses
-
Barkley for Luiz. Maatsen for Digne. Tammy for Watkins.
-
We’ll lose this.
That's the spirit
-
Commentators on R5LE2 are wanking over the goal that B'mouth just scored.
Blah, blah, blah.
We need to get some control back in this game. Maatsen, Barkley and Tammy should come on (for Sancho, Buendia and maybe Onana).
-
We have options on the bench
-

Ta, took it well.

Bailey getting ready
Oh good
-
We need changes here or we’re gonna concede.
-
Buendia off
-
I bloody hate these Tiny Penis-inspired long throws.
-
He'll give a pen
-
No pen confirmed
-
Nope luckily.
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
-
Looked like a pen to me.
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Er injuries possibly?
-
Lucky there
-
This game is just a frantic mess. Not like us at all.
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Our best three midfielders are all injured.
-
Watching a stream with no commentary that keeps crapping out every few minutes.
I haven’t seen us string 2 passes together for about 20 mins
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Because we have lost three big CM players in the January.
-
Martinez is turning crap from crosses and corners.
-
Riding our luck a bit here.
-
See the Luiz challenge and then look at the one on Buendia
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Er injuries possibly?
I mean the second half.Onana,Watkins especially
-
This game is just a frantic mess. Not like us at all.
It's how our opponents play us: break up the rhythm and play us physically - see also Brentford, Everton, etc.
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Thats the spirit!
-
Riding our luck bit here.
Is that the melon in the microwave trick?
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Errrr......
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Thats the spirit!
Didn't say we'd lose did I clever clogs
-
We really do look a messs, worryingly they have more energy
-
Have we given up tackling people or something? Put a fucking foot in FFS!
-
I think every game's going to be like this until McGinn and Tielemans return.
-
since the goal we have been awful midfield id being dominsated. Need something more in midfield
-
We do look bad.
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Our best three midfielders are all injured.
Yes, this has absolutely borked our season by the looks of it. That and throwing away 6 points in the last two home games versus a couple of shite teams.
-
If Watkins can't keep possession the very least he could do would be stay onside from a long ball, try and relieve a bit of pressure.
-
Constantly and consistently giving the ball away now
-
This is our bad half.
-
Swap Onana out for Barkley……he looks gassed.
Edit:Maatsen and Barkley coming on. Dougie and Sancho off.
-
Swap Onana out for Barkley……he looks gassed.
Need Onana for those long throws. He’s won them all
-
Swap Onana out for Barkley……he looks gassed.
They all look tired
-
I think every game's going to be like this until McGinn and Tielemans return.
This is my fear.
-
2 subs
-
Christ, Barkley!
-
Maatsen playing as a winger?
-
I fwe don't win we really need to make sure we don't lose.
-
Watkins 0/10 today.(just to gee him up for the last 10)
-
If Watkins can't keep possession the very least he could do would be stay onside from a long ball, try and relieve a bit of pressure.
Being offside is actually vital for the way we play.

Same thing isn't it. Been an obvious step change and I doubt we'll be putting any serious form together between now and at least April. Need to scrape results and stay in the top five/Europa.
-
We’ve had absolutely no threat this half. Feels odd after the season we’ve had. Injuries or not
-
Emi!!!
-
We have become the total opposite of pre Christmas team.
-
Bournemouth totally in control and dictating this.
-
We are being battered
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Our best three midfielders are all injured.
Yes, this has absolutely borked our season by the looks of it.
Yeah. It was always going to be that way. It's such fine margins at this level - no team is going to be able to dominate in that situation.
Look at what happened to Man City when Rodri got that bad injury - they ended the season trophyless and lost five in a row at one stage, having previously been practically invincible.
And that was just one player.
-
What hasn’t Tammy come on to at least change things up in attack? This isn’t going to end well is it?
-
Likely results with 10 mins to go…
a) we hold out for a draw
b) Bournemouth get a deserved winner
c) we get an unlikely hit and run winner
-
Can we bring any more subs on?
-
Why have we become a rag-bag outfit?
Our best three midfielders are all injured.
It’s certainly very apparent.
-
Totally outplayed this half. Done nothing in an attacking sense.
-
Get Bogarde and Tammy on now
-
Can we STOP booting it long from goal kicks! It;'s a total waste of time.

We have become the total opposite of pre Christmas team.
Lack of squad depth screws us over yet again. No idea what the answer is when the only way we can try to improve is by selling our better players every year. Rinse and repeat.
-
What hasn’t Tammy come on to at least change things up in attack? This isn’t going to end well is it?
No.
Ooo Tammy might be coming on: about 20 mins too late!
-
Bailey has made a huge difference. I knew he would.

Which is what PSR, etc is designed to do, to keep the status quo!
-
Bailey. Fuck off
-
Ollies ball control is top notch.
-
Yep, here’s Tammy and Bogarde
-
Foul-wise, it has kind of been a them-everything us-nothing kind of day.
-
This ref is massive ******.
-
Never a foul that FFS.
-
Watkins gets the ball running up the pitch and not one player near him
-
You just know Bournemouth will win this. :'(
-
Commentator just said Tammys goal last week was ruled out for offside, WTAF?
-
This ref is massive ******.
For someone who’s supposed to be our best referees he’s been shocking
-
Fcuking hell I feel physically sick.

I think the squad's fine, to be honest.
But what are the odds of getting lengthy injuries to all three of our key midfielders at once?
Imagine Rice, Odegaard, and Merino are all out for Arsenal for the next three months. Their title challenge would be fucked and everyone in the media would be endlessly bemoaning their awful luck.

It's absolutely this, just rank bad luck.
-
Have we had a shot this half?
-
Bailey. Fuck off again
Absolute dross man
-
Bailey has been atrocious
-
We’ve barely crossed the halfway line this half.
-
Been so long since we had a shot it was in black and white.
