Can't see the images.
-
I can see them.
-
No many options on the bench if we end up chasing a goal
-
I fear for us tonight this just feels like a real banana skin. Hope I'm wrong and we win comfortably.
-
It's a shame Wes Brown isn't still alongside O'Shea.
-
I suppose Jedinak could come off the bench if a centre half gets crocked, really hoping that we make a statement tonight and win comfortably.
-
No many options on the bench if we end up chasing a goal
Yeah, Grealish is kind of it and he is not exactly prolific. On the plus side however all of the other outfield subs he has picked DO have goals in them.
Also Ruiter :) Grealish get on and earn us some free kicks near their goal please.

Can’t understand why OHare is not on the bench ahead of Barney, unless he’s our secret weapon
-
Good to see Grealish and Lansbury are fit. Appreciate Lansbury hasn't pulls up trees to date, but we need as many fit players as possible over the long winter. I'm also hopeful he may look better in the more confident team we seem to be becoming.
-
Still a very strong 18 considering who we are missing. Kodjia, Hogan, Gabby, RHM all injured?
-
No offence but why would we be missing Flabby fucking Aintgonnascore? Is he not dead to us now?
-
Still a very strong 18 considering who we are missing. Kodjia, Hogan, Gabby, RHM all injured?
& Terry and Green.
-

Yup, plus Terry.
Extra good news we STILL are not low enough on options to have to add Richards to the squad :)
-

Huh? Bruce will just yell "Sambatron! Transform and attack!!"
Then we got a brand new striker up front! Serious skillz that Bruce got...
-
Can anyone get AVTV video? I'm an overseas season pass (video) subscriber but all I can get at the moment is Audio.
-
And we are UP on AVTV! Here we go!
-
AVTV audio, or have you got video? I can't get video.
-
Me neither
-
The website is a real shambles. No tv just audio and the app is down
-
Samba does not have Terrys distro does he? :(
-
AVTv working fine for me in California. (using chrome fyi)
-
Sound has dropped out twice already on commentary. Pathetic, this has been going on since the start of the season.
-
I don't have AVTV, dodgy stream or radio.
So I'm following the events here https://www.flashscores.co.uk/match/Ew9X0qcc/#match-statistics;0 and then using you folks here for the unbiased balanced nuanced analysis.
-
Sunderland playing alright unfortunately.
-
YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
-
Nice goal
-
Albert
-
Get in who scored?
-
Snodgrass, Albert. Lovely.
-
whoop whoop AA strikes again
-
Hopefully knock the stuffing out of their bright start.
-
Albert is sensational at the mo. Now get a second.
-
who needs possession ?
-
Re: AVTV, I was unable to get video, only audio.
I cleared cookies, then restarted Chrome (on a Mac), and then video works OK.
Missed the F-ING goal though (missed them all on Saturday with that AVTV fiasco).
-
Hurricane putting in a shift so far as well.
-
Hurricane putting in a shift so far as well.
Hurricane Hogan?

Hurricane putting in a shift so far as well.
So there is life after the Beastie Boys after all.

Hurricane Hogan?
Hourihane, sorry I always read it as Hurricane :)
-
All very scrappy at the moment
-
AVTV audio saying Server Error? Any ideas peeps?
-
Thank god for Adomah! Get in my son!!
-
All very scrappy at the moment
Yeha not sure if just the players are taking a breather or they are trying to get Sunderland to overcommit so we can counter. Not sure tbh.
-
9 league goals from a single midfielder, and it's still November. 'Tis witchcraft, I tell thee.
-
Again only one camera in use 🤔
-
Samba needs to up his passing. That was poor.
-
Sunderland better team at the moment if you ask me
-
Come on Villa get a second.
-
We're very sloppy
-
will take a PM if one is going
-
Sunderland better team at the moment if you ask me
Yeah we have really stepped off the gas. Bit sloppy tbh. Worrying.
-
Are we shit and lucky?
-
Passing from the back is atrocious, especially Samba and Taylor. We miss Terry
-
Hurricane putting in a shift so far as well.
So there is life after the Beastie Boys after all.
What's he been doing for 25 years?!
-
Terry is a real miss.
-
Not for the goal we played very well. We just turned off after the goal. We havent paid the price...... yet.
-
Come on Villa step it up.
-
Jeez sliding tackle from Whelen in the pen area. Dangerous
-
Great tackle by Hutton.
-
Fulham beating Sheffield United
-
Despite leading this has been really poor
-
Fuck me Snodgrass. How the fuck did he not score there?
-
Fuck. Nice move though. Thats more like it. Play through the middle.
-
Snoddy through on goal. Wide for corner
-
If we put them under some pressure they will crack. Just haven't kep the ball enough to build some momentum.
-
They look a better team than QPR.
-
We’re playing in third gear and at Sunderland’s level. If we just pick it up a little we’d be out of sight. They are massively average and we are allowing them too much time and space.
-
Crap shot by Snodgrass.
-
This is our crap half.
-
Better.
-
Hutton has been having something special for breakfast of late
-
Most blatant push ever, not given.
-
We’re hanging on for dear life when they attack. Samba has actually been quite good and made some important interceptions. It’s very messy and not remotely like the weekend when we looked tremendous at times.
-
For fuck sake Onahma keep the bloody ball!
-
The big man has done nothing tonight. Not showing at all.
-
Sheff Utd 2-3 Fulham
-
Snodgrass is our best player at the moment
-
Far from convincing.
-
Wtf Taylor you were in then?!?
-
Bristol city losing
-
great pass from Hourihane there, should have made more of it
get second goal and this will be a hammering, pity Davis is having a stinker
-
It’s been a very flat display so far. We’re definitely the better side but that’s mainly because Sunderland ar very poor, and we have been marginally surperior to that. Still happy to be winning at HT.
-
Right liven the fuck up Villa.
-
Well at least nobody will be knackered in the second half.
-
Well that wasn’t great but somehow we are winning. Let’s hope they can step it up second half
-
Very strange half. Poor performance but we should be leading 2-0.
-
Saw Whelan limping early on and was hoping he'd be off.No such luck.
-
Poor game from both sides so far. We really should be dominating at home to a shit show like these
-
Hopefully Bruce can shake them into life. 3 points is a must tonight as it looks like we could make up some ground on those above us.
-
We look a bit flat, I think we need to freshen it up.
I hope Bruce does not decide to play for the 1 0.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong but we are winning, aren't we?
-
Saw Whelan limping early on and was hoping he'd be off.No such luck.
Why would you want a Villa player injured?
-
Correct me if I'm wrong but we are winning, aren't we?
Doesn't feel like it
-
A terrible half of football from us despite the score line. Lethargic and error prone. Snoddy and Onomah worst of a bad bunch. Need some fresh legs on in the second half otherwise we will lose this game.
-
Saw Whelan limping early on and was hoping he'd be off.No such luck.
Yeah, if only one of our more influential players this season was injured. Exactly what we need...
-
As scores stand we will be up to 4th and 4 points off 2nd place.
-
Perhaps Brucie will go in the wrong dressing room and give one of his famous inspiring team talks, causing them to nod off for the first 15 minutes
-

Alright sarkypants
-
Correct me if I'm wrong but we are winning, aren't we?
Doesn't feel like it
Or alternatively another phrase for doesn’t feel like it is. It feels like it.
-
We may be winning but we're playing crap at home to the side bottom of the division so it will be commented on. It's no different to when folks say we're playing well despite being behind. It's possible to enjoy being ahead and still think we're playing crap.
-
If things stay as they are with results we are right in this, but we must step it up second half
-
I hope Bruce can liven them up, as I'm sure Coleman will be telling his players they are still well in this match and a goal could stir them up. Villa need another before Sunderland land a lucky blow and score from a set piece
-
Stan Petrov doing great handing out birthday gifts around the stadium
-
I'd like to see Jedi come on and add a bit of presence in the middle.
-
Yesssssssss Josh
-
Fuuuuucking get in!
-
It's going to be a landslide now
-
Yay!
-
Like his last goal big deflection but who cares. If we just keep our heads we’ll win this comfortably.
-
We are winning, you know...
-
Get in!
-
Right, time to cash in now.
-
Bit lucky but I’ll take that
-
Adomah and Onomah, and now I have a boner.
UTV
-
open the floodgates!
-
That's moved us up to 4th.
-
We are winning, you know...
Let it go
-
Just what Villa needed, should go on and win this comfortably.
Welcome to club football Chris
-
I hope we score some more goals.
-
We are winning, you know...
Let it go
I'm Frozen.
-
MOAR GOALZ!!!
-
Getting on top now like a home side should be
-
Game over at 2-0!
Do we have an option to sign Onamah permanently?
-
Getting on top now like a home side should be

-
Keinan is struggling tonight but we need to keep him on there
-
Moyes looks very disconsolate.
-
Moyes looks very disconsolate.
He certainly doesn't look himself.
-
Moyes looks very disconsolate.
Generally?
-
Moyes looks very disconsolate.
So your saying he looks like he always does? 😉
-
Keinan is struggling tonight but we need to keep him on there
If Moyes was managing us he might go with his famous 4-6-0 formation to give Keinan a break. Or indeed he probably would have started that way. He needs to get out Sunderland.
-
You grumpy buggers cheered up yet?
-
Jedi coming on for Whelan
-
MOAR GOALZ!!!
I would like some more.
I'd settle for two.
-
Good move, we need a bit of leadership in there at the moment . Come on Jedi
-
I love a win.
-
Win this and Sheffield, Cardiff & Wolves slip up we're suddenly within striking distance
-
MOAR GOALZ!!!
I would like some more.
I'd settle for two.
Four for me. They can have a consolation goal though.
-
Give it another ten and then I reckon time for some fresh legs
Davis for grealish and Onomah for Lansbury
Albert up top
-

They should go for someone with some PASHUN, someone like Paolo DiCanio.
-
Ive just got a stream to work which usually means we have concluded our scoring for the game.
-
You grumpy buggers cheered up yet?
>:( Sunderland 58% possession >:(
-
Use the subs to ask them questions but that sounds too much like tactics does it?
-

Agreed. Or Sherwood.
-
Great tackle from the Scottish Cafu
-
Hutton has become a really decent player for us lately.
-
Hutton's been immense tonight!
-
Oooh Jack coming on. Looking forward to seeig what he does.
-
Fucking hell. Another shit goal conceded
-
Feck
-
2-1
-
We miss Terry
-
Poo
-
Bruce out.
-
Oh fucking hell.
-
Oh dear. We thought it was game over.
-
Just a blip.
-
Don't fucking through this away Villa.
-
Here it comes, 2-2
-
They better not feck this up
-
Could be a twitchy last 20 minutes.
-
The right move tbf. Albert up front. Decent shout.
-
please
-
That's another goal that you can put down to the players not playing together. We really shouldn't be seeing those just from 1 injury, no matter how important a player he is.
-
Get a third Villa.
-
Sighs. Don't fuck it up again Villa. It is our Birthday remember.
-
Sheffield United now 4-2 down.
-
Get a third Villa.
And a 4th. Or at least stop them scoring
-
I’ve just seen that goal it was really poor from our perspective.
-
The decision to get rid of Baker seems very short sighted now, tbf it did in August.
-
Park #thecuntingbus in front of the goal
-
Jack wearing the number 10 shirt. Would love him to become that inspirational midfield genius.
-
Decent early touches from Grealish.
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
-
We need to get a third. I don’t like us dropping deeper. It only leads to bad things.
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
He's off the pitch
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
Erm...
-
Dropping deeper is a mistake.
-
Can I take a moment to Gush over Adomah? Never stops running. I love the guy.
-
Who’s on for who?
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
Thought Grealish replaced Davis
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
He's off the pitch
That'd be brilliant.
-
Bristol City now 2-0 down. 4th place beckons.
-
Bristol are now two down at home if we fcuk this up Jesus...
-
This is going to be 10 very stressful minutes.
-
Bristol City now 2-0 down. 4th place beckons.
Making a concerted effort to jinx this?!
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
He's off the pitch
That'd be brilliant.
Moyes came on for Davis.
-
Keep possession and play in their half
Fucking simple tactics
-
If Jacks now our no 10, Davis is off the pitch, who’s up front?
-
Fulham now scored 5
-
Keep possession and play in their half
Fucking simple tactics
Damn straight. We are sloppy af right now.
-
If Jacks now our no 10, Davis is off the pitch, who’s up front?
As I predicted, Moyes is now manager and we are playing 4-6-0
-
If Jacks now our no 10, Davis is off the pitch, who’s up front?
Albert.
-
Fulham got a 5th.
-
Walking to #thecuntingbus now, please Villa don't add more misery to my commute
-
Bollocks Cardiff score
-
Bristol City now 2-0 down. 4th place beckons.
Making a concerted effort to jinx this?!
Sheffield United 2 Fulham 5.
The wheels have come off the Blades. 2nd place will soon be beckoning too.
-
Bollocks Cardiff score
A really shit goal as well
-
Come on Davis! Your time to score a goal and ease our worries!
Thought Grealish replaced Davis
Sorry. Didn't see that posted.
-
If Jacks now our no 10, Davis is off the pitch, who’s up front?
Who's on first
-
Elmo coming on for Adomah. He’s run himself into the ground
-
Anyone else watching the stream where he said "Snodgrass top pocket from this freekick"?
-
Albert off, Elmo on. Shutting up shop for 5 mins. Hope it works.
-
So we're playing without a striker?
-
I feel physically sick.
-
If Jacks now our no 10, Davis is off the pitch, who’s up front?
As I predicted, Moyes is now manager and we are playing 4-6-0
Sounds like the stuff of nightmares.
-
Hutton meant to have made a great tackle just.
-
Hutton with a lovely challenge. We are not doing a good job keeping possession at all.
-
So it is 4-6-0!?
-
So we're playing without a striker?
At present Elmo is "up front". Essentially defending up there really.
-
Fingers crossed from SB. Desperate defending the last 7 mins
-
See this is where retaining possession is really important.
-
Scimeca-esque from Bruce.
-
We're definitely 3 centre backs and we're 20 yards away from their defence so I'm going with a 550 to finish the game. If it works then fair enough but going that defensive at home to the bottom side in the league doesn't sit comfortably with me.
At least we do seem to be pressing high still so we've not withdrawn completely.
-
Stupid free kick given away by Taylor
-
Feck, I am worried.
-
So it is 4-6-0!?
Bruce testing it out for when he's in the MLS in Miami
-
Big Samba with a very important header
-
Big Samba has his uses.
-
How long left
-
I want to throw up.
-
Fuck me another idiotic free kick conceded. This time by Snodgrass.
Phew came to nothing. Thank fuck Sunderland are utterly shit
-
60 seconds
-
SBT...
-
Get in!
-
Thank fuck for that
-
hahaha..i had every faith
-
Phew!
-
We never like to make things easy. 3 more points though.
-
3 points, job done.
-
TFFT!
It really shouldn't be this difficult, at home to Sunderland.
-
Don't know what you were all worried about...
::)
:D
