-
Happy with that, debut goal(s) please!
-
52 and excited, Come on you Villa.
-
Surprised not to see Reina or Drinkwater.
-
Reina injured?
-
Nic to see Davis on bench.
-
Leicester subs: Ward, Justin, Gray, Vardy, Albrighton, Benković, Praet.
-
Other than Pepe , strongest 11 ? Nyland played well in first leg in fairness
Don’t need bookings for Konsa or el ghazi
-
as strong as you can get apart from goalie
Can’t complain about that line up
-
Surprised not to see Reina or Drinkwater.
Drinkwater played in the LC for Burnley.
-
Surprised not to see Reina or Drinkwater.
Agree about Reina. Drinkwater cup tied.
-
Of course. Thank you.
-
Surprised not to see Reina or Drinkwater.
Drinkwater ineligible v parent club ?
-
Surprised not to see Reina or Drinkwater.
Drinkwater ineligible v parent club ?
Are Chelsea pretending they didn't sign him?
-
Samagoal!
-
I reckon that Samatta coming with a ready made chant will give him a massive boost tonight.
-
Nyland. Interesting...
-
Reina not even on bench ? Is he not eligible for some weird reason ?
-
No nothing Sky have us lined up 433 with Fred at left back and Targett in midfield. Idiots.
Think Reina is going to play league games and Nyland cup only.
-
Can't help but feel Nylaand will be one of two extremes, he'll either have a blinder or chuck at least one in.
-
Win, please, villa.
-
Good to see keinan back too. Bizarre decision not to have reina on bench.
-
Win.
-
UTV
-
Much depends on whether Rodgers plays it cautious again or goes for it. An early Leicester goal will probably sink us but at least now we have a bit more fighting spirit across the team. Even though I think he's a passenger I quite fancy El Ghazi to score for us tonight. It will probably be the only thing he does all night but tonight may be his. The headlines will all be about Davies scoring the winner.
Lottery numbers to follow a Villa 2-1 win.
-
Come on you Villa Boys!
-
I fancy Samatta to get off the account for some reason. I reckon it’ll be a 3-2 to us... El Ghazi to score another one. Mings with an own goal in bizarre circumstances.
Time to find a drink.
-
Nyland. Interesting...
Not really. I anticipate the place is his whilst we are in the competition. Has played in all ELC games since Steer was injured, so would be harsh to drop him now. Also reward for doing a good job after Heaton was injured.
-
I think that judging by both those two teamsheets, Villa gets the nod in the design department which bodes well. The typeface, placement of headings, subheadings, sponsors, justification and our use of those crafty little shapes and their misuse of Kasper, oh dear. Looking damn good on paper so far.
-
We have to watch Iheanacho (spelling?!) tonight as he’s been very good against us this season. Fast, dangerous... contain him or he has an off day and we’ll be ok.
-
Really looking forward to this. A novelty having two forwards in our squad. Reina not involved is odd but our team looks well balanced. Leicester on paper still a much better team, all their subs would make our team tonight arguably, will take a huge performance and a bit of luck to win.
-
Villa playing The Cult over the tannoy, splendid.
-
Sky just showed Reina enjoying Villa hospitality.... suffering with tight calf or would have possibly played
-
Typical, Reina out already - Goalkeepers curse!
-
Come Villa get us to Wembley Please.
-
Penalties tonight folks! I'm sure of it.
-
No stupid mistakes to gift them goals please Villa.
-
Nyland. Interesting...
Not really. I anticipate the place is his whilst we are in the competition. Has played in all ELC games since Steer was injured, so would be harsh to drop him now. Also reward for doing a good job after Heaton was injured.
Or - as has since been revealed - Reina is out with a tight calf. ;)
-
Evening all. I'm optimistic about this one.
-
Wembley in early spring sounds nice.
Come on Villa
-
Come on you Villa boys!!!!!
-
Last time I was this nervous about a semi I was watching Brokeback Mountain.
-
vital save Nyland
-
Great save.
-
Kasper in action as well
-
Good passing from us
-
Nyland with another great save
-
Another vital save Nyland and only 4 mins in
-
Sort it out Mings!
-
Another chance for them
-
Two good attempts from Maddison.
-
Brilliant from Nyland. Mings has been ropey so far.
-
Riding our luck here.
-
I hope we sort things with Engles.
-
If we keep allowing Maddison to make these forward runs with no one tracking him we will pay the price.
Nakamba and Luiz need to get a hell of a lot tighter.
-
I hope we sort things with Engles.
What is there to sort out?
-
Woeful defensive performance from us so far
-
Another Nyland save
-
This is reminding me of the league game.
-
If we keep allowing Maddison to make these forward runs with no one tracking him we will pay the price.
Nakamba and Luiz need to get a hell of a lot tighter.
Have we won a game when Luiz and Nakamba have started?
-
All them, another save Nyland.
-
We’re just going to let them have the ball then
-
Another save by Nyland from Maddison.
-
I hope we sort things with Engles.
What is there to sort out?
I don't know, but he hasn't played in ages and no reported injury.
-
Bloody struggling here, we need to take control of this and fast
-
Reina is injured by the way surprisingly. In no way whatsoever.
-
They are all over us here. We’re too passive.
-
We need a 'Scorchio!', PWS. My stream is a minute or so behind H&V.
-
Great save Orjan.
-
Get a grip villa.
-
Not good enough so far.
-
SCOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
Goooooaaaalllllll!!!!!!!!!!
-
1-0.
-
Get in!
-
Not good enough so far.
Yep, awful :P
-
Get. The. Fuck. In.
-
Other than Nyland obviously who’s been ace.
-
We need a 'Scorchio!', PWS. My stream is a minute or so behind H&V.
My pleasure.
-
Get a grip villa.
You're welcome!!!
YESSSSS
-
Not good enough so far.
Yep, awful :P
Appalling.
-
SCCccccoooooorrrrreeeeeeee!!! Targett! Great finish!
-
Ohhhhhhhhh Yess what a finish what a goal
-
Brilliant play and awareness from Grealish.
-
Not good enough so far.
Yep, awful :P
Fucking dreadful
-
Fuck VAR
-
Lovely!!! Grealish and Targett link we’ll.
-
We need a 'Scorchio!', PWS. My stream is a minute or so behind H&V.
My pleasure.
YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Finish from Targett, another assist from Grealish. Wonderful.
-
Fookin' get in! Brilliant move, great strike.
-
Grealish superb for the goal.
-
VAR check, goal given. Didn't know there was VAR tonight.
-
Oh I Say! 8)
-
Nyland would have saved that one
-
So lets hope we can go forward on this, brilliant come on Jack
-
Need to settle down now
-
Grealisha be targett have a good understanding. Jack just needs to tie players up and get into space and targett can come in and get his foot through it.
-
I love you Sherminator!
-
VAR check, goal given. Didn't know there was VAR tonight.
All games at grounds where it's available I believe?
-
Finish from Targett, another assist from Grealish. Wonderful.
They really do have an excellent understanding down that side of the pitch.
-
Reborn in the left wing back role.
-
There's not much better than seeing Pepe Reina's kids jumping around like crazy, celebrating the goal with their Villa scarves on!!!
-
We go close
-
Ooooooooooohhhhh Anwar. Close.
-
Finish from Targett, another assist from Grealish. Wonderful.
They really do have an excellent understanding down that side of the pitch.
The three at the back is really helping Targett as well.
-
Samatta touched the ball yet?
-
15 minutes went fast!
-
Goal almost a carbon copy of the stoppage time winner v Brighton at VP a few months ago. Great work boys.
-
Targett goal https://twitter.com/SkyFootball/status/1222247849603272705
-
Guilbert was such a find.
-
Samatta touched the ball yet?
I hope there's not something Samatta with him...
*sorry*
-
Seen him touch it now
-
It's just Samatta of time
-
Targett is playing well. He looks fitter and sharper
-
It's just Samatta of time
Just said 4 million Tanzanians watching there footballing idol tonight, can only be good.
-
There's not much better than seeing Pepe Reina's kids jumping around like crazy, celebrating the goal with their Villa scarves on!!!
It is very fucking sweet. He's got a great supportive family by the looks of it, you love to see it.
Anyway, snifff, back to the football...
-
Without the pressure of battling for points to stay up we have looked a totally different team in this competition this season compared to our nerves in league games.
-
Come on ref, the 90 mins must be up by now.
-
Need Nyland to do a 70 min goal kick now, Watford style.
-
Atmosphere seems a bit meh.
-
Without the pressure of battling for points to stay up we have looked a totally different team in this competition this season compared to our nerves in league games.
That and mostly playing reserve sides!
-
Leeds are falling apart, again.
-
Atmosphere seems a bit meh.
Seems fine to me.
-
What a ball by Jack, shame it was offside.
-
Freddy offside, Sammy scores. VAR confirms no goal.
-
The the new boy's certainly got an eye for goal! What a ball from SJG...
-
Freddy offside, Sammy scores. VAR confirms no goal.
He was just getting his sights in for later.
-
Jack is seriously on a 10/10 performance so far. Amazing player.
-
Leeds are falling apart, again.
Aye - & at home to Millwar too! The locals will be sharpening their bricks already.
-
Need to stop giving Madison free shots
-
Madison is the real threat.
-
For a side battling relegation so far this season we are a million miles apart from the shambolic sides of 1987 and 2016 that went down.
-
It's just Samatta of time
Not with the service he's getting up until now.
-
Elsewhere Fabian Kunze has an assist for Arminia Bielefeld
-
Targett has been really good.
-
There is nothing in the world more annoying than Leicester fans giving it the "You're shit ahhhhh" at every goal kick. It was bad in person at VP, it sounds even worse on a TV with the commentary off. Saps
-
Do you reckon there's a match thread on knuckledraggers.com?
-
Do you reckon there's a match thread on knuckledraggers.com?
Unlikely because we're winning. Skint pricks.
-
Am I right in thinking that if we get through to the final and Man City do tomorrow night that we get a place in Europe provided Man City qualify for either the Champions League or Europa League?
-
Of course there is:

-
Guilbert was such a find.
agreed, he'll become a Villa star
-

No, only if we win it.
-
Fuuuuckkkk, close, off the bar from them.
Nyland is having a stormer.
-
Another brilliant save from Nyland
-
Madison is the real threat.
He and Tielemans are excellent players.
-
Nyland is like a man possessed tonight. Amazing.
-
I don't know what's more obsessed, them having a match thread for our semi final, or during our semi final people looking at their site :P
-
Fuuuuckkkk, close, off the bar from them.
Nyland is having a stormer.
What a save that is.
-
Outstanding save.
-
We’re still sooo sloppy at the back
-
That was an amazing save. Incredible
-
I don't know what's more obsessed, them having a match thread for our semi final, or during our semi final people looking at their site :P
Twas a break in play sir!
-
Cannot see this finishing 1-0, both sides are too open.
-
Nyland though, what a player. And after getting NG harshly dropped for Reina too, fantastic attitude to come back with a performance like this.
-
Unbelievable save, Nyland!
-
Nyland has been brilliant.
-
Nakamba also having a good game
-
Douglas Luiz has bags and bags of ability.
-
Another day and another ref and Nakamba gets punished for handball.
-
Grealish and Targett are tearing them a new one.
-
Nyland has been amazing - such a change from SheffU away from last season
-
Samatta dummies that its probably 2-0.
Can't blame a striker for going for it though
-
I don't know what's more obsessed, them having a match thread for our semi final, or during our semi final people looking at their site :P
Hahaha
-
New boy Samatta getting into the game now.
-
Samatta growing into this... cross from Targett was a little too fast there, but promising.
-
If we can stay up I reckon we'll have a tidy side next season.
-
Ayy up Sama, next one'll go in lad.
-
Samatta dummies that its probably 2-0.
Can't blame a striker for going for it though
Encouraging signs he’s in the right place
-
Never got a shot away but he found the space nicely.
-
If we can stay up I reckon we'll have a tidy side next season.
*When
-
If we can stay up I reckon we'll have a tidy side next season.
If we can perform like this more often we probably will.
-
If we can stay up I reckon we'll have a tidy side next season.
If we had a player as good as Jack is on the left, to play in front of Guilbert, we'd be a nightmare to play against.
-
Hause looks sluggish and slow on the ball
-
Nice to see one of our players making a smart foul to break up an attack. We’re usually on the other end of those
-
Samatta dummies that its probably 2-0.

Agreed, he's done well so far.

I can't think of a better save than that from anybody this season. Outstanding.
-
Nyland save https://twitter.com/FootySuperTips/status/1222253996435496962
Brillaint
-
I love Guilbert. Becoming one of my favourite players.
-
Save of the Century.
-
Reina would have caught it mind.
-
Mings attempting the McGinn bumroll
-
Considering quality of opposition I think Doug is doing well
-
HT
-
As a famous philosopher once said, we're halfway there.
-
That'll do. Good half, even if we rode our luck at times.
-
It's so noticeable how much less the players have worn themselves out in the first half when we have a proper striker to focus our play up front. There's far less of a mad scramble to get bodies up the pitch and less effort wasted. Energy in reserve to go up a gear if necessary in the second half... in theory.
-
We’re not at home to Mr Cock Up
-
And Livin on a prayer?
-
Please don't fuck up Villa.
-
Half time. That'll do so far, Villa.
-
Very decent team performance with Jack and Nyland being exceptional.
-
Doing ok, need to close them down better.
-
Not bad at all. Cut out the sloppiness at the back and we could win this in normal time.
-
Might book my travel to Wembley now.
-
Marvellous playing like Kante
-
They’ll throw everything they have at us in the 2nd half. So it’s going to be difficult... not looking forward to Vardy coming on. However, there’s enough of a spark there.
Samatta growing into the game. Would love him to score one in the 2nd half.
Nyland and Grealish have both been immense.
-
1-0 up with another game to play, think a lot of this will come down to fitness and who gives out first, game will become even more stretched, great goal, huge shout for Nyland, awesome stuff, Jack is leading the way, Sam looks good to me thus far, serious faced, eagle eyed, hungry, exact opposite to Wes this could be a really good pairing.
Come on Villa.
-
We've been terrific coming forward but Nyland has kept us in it. Still, that's what he's there for.
-
Very decent team performance with Jack and Nyland being exceptional.
Indeed. It's so good to see us playing with confidence, energy and options available to the player in possession. More of the same please!
-
Much to enjoy there, but Nyland has been outstanding, three saves so good it was almost not possible to see he'd got a touch to each of them. Speaks volumes for his ability and his character to perform that well.

Agreed.
-
We've been terrific coming forward but Nyland has kept us in it. Still, that's what he's there for.
He is, but he needs more protection.
-
Great performance so far. Looking composed, not giving the ball away much, keeping having a blinder, a lot more dangerous going forward. Keep it up Villa!
-
Save of the Century.
A Parsons nose of a save, you might say.
-
Rogers will tweak a few things and I expect them to come out firing so we must not retreat into our shells. Another goal would be nice!
-
Been impressed with Samatta so far, intelligent runs and his closing of their defenders has been excellent.

His closing down was a key part in us getting the ball back for the goal.
-
Save of the Century.
A Parsons nose of a save, you might say.
There was no hesitation but there was a lot of repetition.
-
that half seem to go on for ever
Nyland world class on that half
Grealish n Trgett work great together ... Jack and Madison have to be in england team
Luis is a player and marvelous done ok
Guilbert aint bad :)
Hause shits me up with his distribution
great to have a striker on , looks so much better
Come on Villa... WE CAN DO THIS ..just sick of the Leicester fans saying expect a thrashing all day here in Hinckley
-
Rogers will tweak a few things and I expect them to come out firing so we must not retreat into our shells. Another goal would be nice!
First 10 they will come out with all guns firing, we just have to contain them at all costs, longer we can hold out more likely they will get frustrated, tired, crucial first period to this.
-
Might book my travel to Wembley now.
Oi! Less of that!
-
Chris Waddle on R5L saying that SJG's pass for Targett was a fluke: rewatching it, Waddle is full of it!
-
How long before they send the chav on?
-
Win please villa
-
Great 1st half,keep it up Villa. Hause does give me nerves with his passing, just hoof !
-
Been impressed with Samatta so far, intelligent runs and his closing of their defenders has been excellent.
Yup. Now to give him some decent service into the box.
-
How long before they send the chav on?
Steptoe will be on soon I reckon.
-
We must take better care of the ball in defence and not lose it dangerous positions or hoof it downfield.
We've got another goal in us.
Action stations for the next 10 mins, keep concentration and don't do anything sloppy or stupid.
-
We're off, no changes by either side.
-
Been impressed with Samatta so far, intelligent runs and his closing of their defenders has been excellent.
Yup. Now to give him some decent service into the box.
The lads aren't used to playing with a striker, to be fair.
-
Been impressed with Samatta so far, intelligent runs and his closing of their defenders has been excellent.
Looks an upgrade on Wes. Actually knows what to do when he lays it off (Wesley just stands still) and offering a good outlet. Probably won't be tonight but will be interesting how good his finishing is when he gets some chances.
-
Usual lacklustre first few mins after half time.
-
Probably famous last words but I'm never that nervous when away teams are shooting towards the Holte second half. Would be interesting to see how many games the away team wins when they do that at VP.
-
Needs to get moving here.
-
Need to retain possession
-
Ref giving us nothing this half
-
Ref giving us nothing this half
Why would he. This is Mike Dean who once celebrated Spurs scoring against us, after all.
-
Nyland was my player of the first half, closely followed by Guilbert and Targett. Grealish also his usual excellent self.
-
We go close
-
And another shot, wide
-
Don’t be injured Tyrone.
-
Ooooooooh
-
Growing into the second half now, come on
-
Vardy coming on soon
-
Nyland was my player of the first half, closely followed by Guilbert and Targett. Grealish also his usual excellent self.
Nyland and Targett the best so far for me.
-
Don’t be injured Tyrone.
I think he’s tweaked his hammy again
-
Vardy on
For Perez
-
What have they got to do to get a yellow card?
-
My stream is now well behind H&V. Another 'Scorchio!' soon, PWS. Please.
-
Target is good tonight.
-
Konsa booked
-
Here comes the chav.
Also, Soyuncu's a bit of a radish isn't he
-
Oh well done Konsa, div.
-
Konsa misses the final if we get there for throwing the ball away.
-
Really really silly from Konsa. Yes it was our throw but there is no need to get yourself booked for that
-
Bad decision, but stupid booking.
-
Konsa booked
He's daft for that. Linesman got it right.
-
Konsa was right - it was our throw - but the reaction is very unprofessional.
-
Coked-up Steptoe comes on.
-
Vardy on
For Perez
Vardy always a danger but Perez has impressed me too this season.
-
Oh well done Konsa, div.
Thanks linesman you wanker
-
Should have been our throw but Konsa silly
-
Need to step up a bit here
-
Konsa was right - it was our throw - but the reaction is very unprofessional.
Bang on right, bad reaction but when emotions are running this high linesman has to get it right
-
Konsa misses the final if we get there for throwing the ball away.
Odd rule. Is that 2 or 3 bookings in this competition? Anyone else at risk?
-
Luiz booked for kicking the ball away
-
Hause has got a bit of a touch of the Titus Brambles creeping in -
-
And now Luiz gets himself booked. This is fucking braindead
-
Ref c**t
-
FFS! Another stupid booking.
-
Two stupid bookings
-
Dean is a ******.
-
This is obvoously our obligatory 20 minute crap spell
-
Stop kicking the fucking ball away.
-
Ref c**t
Konsa and Luiz gave the ref absolutely zero option on either.
-
A little kick at the ball. Very harsh yellow
-
Konsa was right - it was our throw - but the reaction is very unprofessional.
Correct. Petulant and unnecessary.
-
Dean is a c***.
Well I like him and am glad he's our manager.
-
All season we have picked up too many daft bookings due to individual stupidity.
-
Dean IS a ******, but that's pathetic petulence from both players at this level.
-
They are niggly sh1ts
-
Ref's starting to become annoying.
-
Dean is a c***.
Well I like our manager, anyway.
-
Jack with a curler, but it wasn't a whirler and certainly wasn't a pearler
-
Oooooh
-
Ref c**t
Konsa and Luiz gave the ref absolutely zero option on either.
As Edvard said, Luiz tapped the ball away, and he did it with all the force of a casual pass. It's not like he blasted it in frustration. Bizarre and unfair booking IMO.
-
They are niggly sh1ts
They are streetwise shits.
-
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
-
Aaaargahhhhhh, Samatta!
-
Samatta so close
-
Oh Sammy
-
Jack has just put 2 fabulous balls into the box. Samatta should have scored there
-
That should have been it.
-
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
What the f.. . Won't get better chance
-
Oopsy.
-
Ohh Sammy, Sammy, Sammy
-
Good run, keep our heads up
-
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
What the f.. . Won't get better chance
I think we will
-
Leicester puffing and panting a bit
-
Sammy down injured
-
Keep your head Jack.
-
Come on villa
-
Sammy down injured
Keinan coming on for him
-
That’s a sitter, he’s looked nervous to me and now had 2 chances and fluffed them both. Going off now.
-
Kienan is alive and well.
-
Sammy down injured
Keinan coming on for him
Jesus Christ.
-
Sammy down injured
Back up like a spring chicken.
Off for Davis.
-
Corner!
-
Corner ball!
-
last 10 minutes have been our best spell of the game
-
Eeeeeeeeeeeee
-
It's a shame for the new lad, could have been the perfect debut. Instead he's off. Hope it doesn't knock his confidence because otherwise he was okay.
-
Bit of a sullen fella our Sammy. Better luck next time lad, there's goals to be had.
-
Get a second, please villa
-
Midfield are sitting much too deep at the moment.
-
Leicester chance, missed
-
This second half is ageing me.
-
This second half is ageing me.
I am ready to draw my pension now!
-
My telegram from Queenie is on the way.
-
Hopefully Mings can make his experience felt against Steptoe, as he's having chances
-
Vardy may not have touched the ball but he is so alert to finding space. We need to be tight
-
Do we still have an orange dot somewhere in the loft? Could really do with it.
-
Bollocks, 1-1
-
Shit.
1-1.
-
Fucking bastards
-
Do we still have an orange dot somewhere in the loft? Could really do with it.
All out. No Admiral's pies left, either.
-
FUCKKKKKK.
-
Iheafuckingnacho again.
-
Against the run of play that.
20 minutes from penalties....
-
Him. Again. Fucks sa@
Or.
-
Fuckingnacho
-
All Samamisses fault, sell him!
-
Come on boys, let's take it to them!
-
Very poor defending. No way Barnes should have been allowed to get that cross in so easily
-
Destined for pens?
-
Everybody ball watching
-
Bollox!
-
Harvey Barnes is having a great game. He’s just what we need up front.
-
Sketchy Kelechi.
-
Fucking come on Villa, you've got the beating of these rats
-
That’s a shame we were playing well until that point
-
Him. Again. Fucks sa@
Or.
We have so many bogeymen, us
-
I said target was good tonight where the fuck was he on that cross?
-
Harvey Barnes is having a great game. He’s just what we need up front.
Fine llayer
-
That fucker loves scoring against us
-
Penalties I guess. Not looking forward to that.
-
Him. Again. Fucks sa@
Or.
We have so many bogeymen, us
He's just a very good player.
-
I said target was good tonight where the fuck was he on that cross?
More to the point where was Hause?
-
Harvey Barnes is having a great game. He’s just what we need up front.
I've been thinking the same all game. Proper winger.
-
Penalties I guess. Not looking forward to that.
Steady, 15 mins left yet 😩
-
Referee is being a bastard too.
-
Who can we bring on?
-
Finally a booking for fouling Jack
-
Just not closing down guving them too much space to run with the ball.
-
Referee is being a bastard too.
Certainly making things difficult.
-
Waste of a freekick
-
That’s a shame we were playing well until that point
First half was our usual tentative self against a decent team but I've been really impressed by how we've played in the second.
Whatever the outcome here we need to take that type of performance into games v likes of Spurs and Chelsea as we will need some points in those games to stay up I think.
-
AEG off for Trez
-
Come on Trez
-
Fear not, it's Tranmere again and we'll win on Penalties! TBF I've been drinking Havana Club all day! UTV
-
Trez on for AEG...isn't AEG good on pens?
-
I'm assuiming with Sammy and AEG off they'd have been pen takers, if it gets that far.
-
Have we anyone on the pitch that we know can take a penalty?? Jack perhaps. Anyone else?
-
Come on Trez. He’s got a screamer in him somewhere... i can feel it!
-
Trez coming on....
Anyone know if he's a penalty taker?
We're normally good at them but I don't really see that many penalty takes on the pitch compared to last season. Mind you Nyland could save a couple way he's played tonight.
-
Finally! Trez on for El Ghosti
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
-
Trez on for AEG...isn't AEG good on pens?
Yep. Strange one...
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Not anymore
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Nope
-
If it gets to pens I'd have:
Jack
Luiz
Targett
Trez
Guilbert
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Nope, straight to pens if it stays this way
-
Fuck me
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Nope.
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Not anymore
Didn't realise that.
-
Weve let them right back into this
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Not anymore
Didn't realise that.
No away goals either
-
Have we anyone on the pitch that we know can take a penalty?? Jack perhaps. Anyone else?
We just signed that Barry chap. Maybe he could take a penalty.
-
Is there no extra time in this cup?
Not anymore
Didn't realise that.
Only in the final
-
We had them on the ropes now they are first to everything
-
Less than 10 to go, come on Villa!
-
Villa under some pressure now, dodgy last few minutes.
-
Davis is quite slow
-
We had them on the ropes now they are first to everything
They've more in the tank than us, and possibly an extra gear.
-
We had them on the ropes now they are first to everything
Yes their heads still go down a bit when we let a goal in
-
Davis is quite slow
Be fair. He's been out injured since 1879.
-
Trez with a weak shot
-
Played well tonight whatever happens, really good game. Samatta now knows what he’s on for.
-
Got to do better there Trezeguet. Shite.
-
Trez has to do better
-
One day Trez will learn how to put some wellie into his shots.
-
Come on Trez. He’s got a screamer in him somewhere... i can feel it!
That was his chance, but his feet were made of paper
-
Weak effort by Trez there. Needed to do much better
-
Fuck me
-
Can Trez shoot with power at all? Never seen it.
-
Shit shot. What a waste!
-
Elmo on for Guilbert
-
Trez looks tidy enough but has no end product at all.
-
Elmohamady on, really?!?!
-
Elmo on
-
Fuck me
Stop asking, it's not gonna happen ;)
-
Elmohamady on, really?!?!
Fancies him on a penalty I guess.
-
Elmo on for Guilbert
To be fair he looks fucked
-
Jack's body language was hilarious and depressing in equal measure when Davies passed to Trez instead of him.
He just stopped running in complete confidence Trez would fuck it up.
-
Why has jack gone to the right side?
-
Bloody hell, Fred off. Why?
-
Would've put Hourihane on as you'd fancy him to score a penalty.
Shaping up atm to be like West Brom last season v us, they basically had defenders taking all the penalties as they took all their attacking players off.
-
Demarai Gray coming on
-
Elmohamady on, really?!?!
Fancies him on a penalty I guess.
Our secret weapon
-
Jack's body language was hilarious and depressing in equal measure when Davies passed to Trez instead of him.
He just stopped running in complete confidence Trez would fuck it up.
That was a poor sub in my opinion. Jack is on the right now, and he was linking up with Targett brilliantly.
-
Elmo on for Guilbert
To be fair he looks fucked
-
Gray on for them.
-
I hope we get one more chance and it falls to Jack...
-
4 mins left.
-
Why has jack gone to the right side?
Found that really weird. Soyuncu just got a yellow card too
-
Final 5, please Villa
-
Trez with a weak shot
You say that like it's a surprise. He did exactly what he always does, weak shot straight at the keeper
-
I know Samatta was knackered, but taking him off lost our shape a bit.
I don’t really want penalties. If it can be avoided.
-
This ref is a ******.
-
I like Davis
-
This ref is a c***.
A total one
-
I like Davis
Always looks pretty good in his annual appearance
-
Need to stay focused now.
-
Schmeichel looks like he should be piloting a Thunderbird.
-
This ref is a c***.
A total one
Yep. Always has been and always will be.
-
Dare I say we look tired?
-
Fucking hell.
-
Well... win or lose, we’ve put in a good performance today. If we can play with the same confidence and strength in the next few games, we’ll be there or thereabouts.
-
Can we bring Jedinak on if it goes to pens?
-
We look very tired now.
-
Last minute of the 90
-
90 mins nearly up.
-
keep the heads
-
In the run up to the Play offs last year, the squad was practicing penalties for about a month.
The two who never missed were Hourihane and Jedinak.
We have neither available to us right now.
Nyland to take one anyone??
-
Good job there's no extra time I think we'd be fucked.
4 mins added
-
4 minutes injury time.
-
Luiz very lucky not to get a 2nd yellow there
-
We look very tired now.
Think both teams do, game not as good as the last 30 in the first half.
-
My nerves are fucked already folks. Not sure I can handle injury time.
-
Not only has the 2nd half aged me, I think it’s about to threaten my life if it gets to penalties
-
I've just replaced Kirk Douglas in the Alivewatch thread.
-
SCORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCHIIIIIIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

-

-
No time for a 50p head Konsa
-
C'mon Villa.
-
I hope to see dark days return to football at Villa Park in a few minutes
-
I hope to see dark days return to football at Villa Park in a few minutes
Me too. Haha
-
That was a bloody good finish by Trez actually.

-
And it’s Aston Villa Aston Villa fc by far the greatest the world has ever seen!
-
Elmo, my god. He's put so many of them quality balls to n for villa.
-
Come on Trez. He’s got a screamer in him somewhere... i can feel it!
Was it a screamer?
-
Nyland man of the match.
-
Pitch invasion, "back to the dark ages" lol
-
Come on Trez. He’s got a screamer in him somewhere... i can feel it!
Was it a screamer?
It wasn’t a long range one, but a lovely finish!
-
The dark days are back!!!!
-
Brilliant
-
They just said Konsa can play in the final
-
Leicester seem to like those last minute turn-around losses, followed by a pitch invasion.
-
Jack to the SKY guy about Trez "His English is crap"
-
We now seem to suddenly have three of the best keepers in the Premier league.
-
That’ll do lads. That’ll do.
-
Wrong thread !
-
Great win. Elated. How could we get relegated if we play like this on a regular basis. Hope is back. Will have a.other couple of pints.
