Strongest team available I think
-
Why not. Nice. Let's give it a go.
-
Strongish Yanited team too.
DDG
Dalot Lindelof Varane Shaw
Fred McTominay
Fernandes Greenwood
Rashford Cavani
-
ugh. ings and watkins. 10 men it is then
-
They don’t like it up ‘em!
Bring it on!
-
No Ronaldo or Macheda in their line up or subs
-
Gerard’s giving it the full bollocks tonight. Come on!!
-
I would rather have seen a 5 man midfield as Ings/Watkins isn't convincing. Play Morgan in there to settle things down and keep the ball.

yep.

Agree, I'd probably have gone 4-4-1-1 with Sanson in and Ings on the bench but I've never won a Champions League.
-
I guess he felt he couldn't drop Ings after a great goal at Brentford while Ollie has hit the ground running under Gerrard.
-
Why have we got two goalkeepers on the bench?....surely there's a youth teamer who'd benefit from the match day experience, and I am aware that the youth team have played this afternoon. Perhaps Steer has got a knock or maybe Sinisalo is a cat at penalty kicks!
-
GOOD.
One of the things that has pissed me off over the years is managers putting out weakened teams at Villa for the cup games. We aren't a club with the strength to do that.
FULL STRENGTH AND END THE DROUGHT PLEASE.
Really can't call this one and I'll be gutted if we go out. Please do it for us Villa.
FTF 8)
-
I think Fred McTominay used to be a regular in my dad's local, and Fernandes Greenwood was a lad at my school who'd never met his dad.
-
Win please.
-
No Ronaldo or Macheda in their line up or subs
I bet Sancho never regrets his move to the Plastics.
-
Hope Watkins doesn't start getting passed off. When Coutinho starts that will be his position and Ings should be dropped in favour of Watkins. It's one or the other.
-
Very strong Utd line up and fully expecting them to put in a "statement performance" complete with a dodgy pen/dubious red for us.
-
Why have we got two goalkeepers on the bench?....
So that when we're 3-0 up in the 90th minute Stevie G can bring them both on to replace Ings and Watkins much to the chagrin of TTOD.
-
Good selection no holding back but both Ings and Watkins? It's not going to work.
-
How the fuck is that a penalty? Wankers. As per usual. 93rd minute.
Just getting some practice in for later lads.
-
Asking again and what people think
I see SG keeping it all compact and asking "his players" (not his players!) to be aggressive.
I just want Villa to have a go and win the game in an attacking way but I don't know if that's going to happen despite the strong line up . Will we really take the game to man utd ? Or look at a containing job.
I want to see a change in tactic today
So I'm politely asking again for someone explain or show to me otherwise how we exactly plan to win this today with way our system is. With the full backs.
Because Man Utd are very very beatable.
I can't stand it if we lose again in FA Cup 3rd round
I just feel annoying pessimistic based on how the new manager likes to approach the sterner tests. We could well be very passive
Or if not if not I fear we're likely to have a sending off misunderstanding the idea of being competitive by fouling.
Hoping for a same performance and result like last time here under Dean but do need to be enlighten how out full backs tonight will offer anything over the half way line or worry too much against Greenwood and Rashford Shaw and Dalot.
Hoping our attacking muster shots at goal and we'll let's just go for it
Up the Villa.
-
What minute will they get their dodgy pen sweepstake!
If it's a draw, the tiebreaker is how many times will Watkins pass to Ings.
-
How the fuck is that a penalty? Wankers. As per usual. 93rd minute.

You can set your watch to them getting a penalty during the game.
-
Pleased he's gone full strength. Let's hope for a famous night.
-
What minute will they get their dodgy pen sweepstake!
If it's a draw, the tiebreaker is how many times will Watkins pass to Ings.
I'm going 63 minutes and twice.
-
FTMF! I'm nonplussed by the inclusion of Ings and Watkins together, but you know, Steven Gerrard is this ace manager who tells his players to listen to what they are told and execute their instructions as the coaching team know what the fuck they are doing. So we are going to funeral these plastic ******!
-
Lindelof is shit. So is Dalot. Plenty to get at in that line-up
-
Anyone know if the game is being shown in Australia?
-
Just read that Michael Oliver is the ref tonight. He shouldn't be allowed to ref a Villa game, the man's an absolutely useless twat.
-
Lindelof is shit. So is Dalot. Plenty to get at in that line-up
And Shaw.
No Ronaldo or Sancho is a definite plus but means the refs will have to work extra hard for them tonight.
-

Hold on to your seats! Give the 'wankers'! And 'beat the traffic' ! Bingo!!
-
Nice to see that we’ve gone stronger than we did against Liverpool last season anyway ! 😂
-
Happy with the team, happy there's no Ronaldo, happy there's no Trez in the squad, let's hope I'm happy when the ref blows the final whistle
-
Need to get into them immediately. None of this 20 minutes of them having the ball bollocks and then we start playing. Make it fucking hard from the start. They all fucking hate each other right now and the fans are well pissed off with everything. Push them back and the crowd will be against them quickly.
-

Oh no.
-
Well I think people choose to ignore my very astute observations about rather predictable and pedestrian cautious approach and I'll observe and leave it there till we get Digne and Coutinho in. Far more effective players than what we have for this current system which is only going to struggle and not have final ball provided , creativity or much shot at goal based on performances past. We have a goal in us not much else.
Far more hopeful next Saturday than tonight based in everything I've seen thus far. Fernandes will be a menace without Nakamba tonight not sure how we can stop him running the show so expect him to score.
I hope I'm totally wrong like majorly wrong.
And hold my hands up if I've been mistaken from what I've seen against Man City , Liverpool and Chelsea.
And no more peep from me till next week let us keep dream for a few more hours.
Up the Villa.
-

yeah I think they've gone with a "Players that don't want to leave" XI. Deffo need VAR's help.
-
Bizarre I’m sure I saw Chuck playing earlier this evening for the U23s
And we do we have 3 keepers?
-
The bench is weak. Can't see any game changers there but our kids could do us proud tonight if needed.

Are you a Russian bot?
-
Anyone know if the game is being shown in Australia?
Looks as if Kayo has it available only on replay at 11pm tonight via a coupla plastics commentating for MUTV, this might be a different time on Foxtel. Optus only doing league games. Reckon in previous years I’d seen FA Cup ties on Kayo.

Mate it's a match thread. Not really the place to have an in-depth discussion.
-

We still enjoy reading them though.

Why the hell do you keep announcing your departures?
-
Footy, I read your well-thought post and don't have an answer. One for a better analyst then me on here, Paul_e perhaps.
-
I would rather have seen a 5 man midfield as Ings/Watkins isn't convincing. Play Morgan in there to settle things down and keep the ball.
I think I would have gone with the extra midfielder as well but we'll see how it goes.
-
STANDARDS
I mean where do you start with that shit?
-
I know this is about us and not about them, but it's telling that Shaw keeps his place after his outburst the other night, but Maguire and Ronaldo don't even make the squad. They do seem to be a team in disarray, so lets hope tonight's the night that Watkins and Ings can finally click together.
-
Empty seat wankers.
-
Bruno Fernandes is due a goal. obviously
-
Blimey Mings off on a barnstormer there.
-
STANDARDS
I mean where do you start with that shit?
I thought the same.
Reminiscent of the work of some sort of low quality workplace training consultant.
-
Some lazy possession already having balls nicked off us.
-
They're hitting it out to Rashford every single time.
Need to watch that and quickly get one of the CMs over to cover Cash.
-
Not looking great at the moment but we can get down those channels on the break that's for sure
-
Well done dougie
-
Pathetic
-
FFS what a cheap goal to give away.
Couldn't clear the corner.
-
Oh poo
-
Deserved. Pathetic start from us
-
The closing then on the cross from Ings is pathetic.
-
Piss poor from Mings.
-
Fuck off. Pathetic.
-
The dream lasted 7 minutes.
-
Really really poor.
-
Konsa behind his man
-
Fucking rubbish.
Passive all over the park and far,far too easy for them
-
McTiminay walks past Luiz, Ramsey and McGinn. That will drive Gerrard nuts, it does me.
-
The closing then on the cross from Ings is pathetic.
Yeah should've closed down quicker.
They all followed the ball aswell instead of someone deciding to stop Fred getting the cross in.
Someone marking McTominay might have helped aswell.
All very disappointing.
-
For all the forward players etc... A proper holding midfielder is much more required
-
too easy
-
Rubbish defending and poor from defensive midfield.
-
Plenty of time.
-
Ollie has to score that.
-
What the fuck was that? Ffs!
-
Mings marking thin air. Shocking defending.
-
Fuck me how many does Ollie Watkins miss.
-
Should have been 1-1 there. Bit unlucky for Watkins
-
That touch from Varane made it a little more difficult than it looked first time
-
Could be a long night, we are not at it.
-
What a wretched start.
Passive defending. Weak.
Crap.
-
Watkins adds another sitter to his ever increasing list
-
In fairness the touch on fucks him up. Second game in a row JJ booked early doors. Needs to cut that out.
-
Wank defending from Konsa and Mings.
-
No wonder Gerrard is looking for some attacking options Ollie.
-
Shocking schoolboy marking and defending for the Manure goal.
-
Fuck me how many does Ollie Watkins miss.
This us why I don't like the narrative that Watkins alwats starts over Ings... Ings far more clinical
-
Chance yjete
-
Be nice to turn up lads
-
It's disheartening to have to think that we just need to get to half time at 1-0 after 10 minutes.
-
We're still too easy to score against Steve G. Thought we were sorting that out.
-
Really looking forward to Saturday night.......
-
Have we not practiced defending short corners at all in last 7 days?
Too easy again.
Need to wake up otherwise this will quickly get beyond us.
-
Tough one for Watkins, very little time to react.
-
Lovely by Buendia
-
Excellent from Buendia.
-
In fairness the touch on fucks him up. Second game in a row JJ booked early doors. Needs to cut that out.
How long until they get their first booking. I call 88 mins.
-
Flip side, we will get chances v them if we run at them.
Easiest of the top half teams to run through. Not sure I want this to turn into basketball type match though.
-
Brilliant from Buendia there. Need more of that.
-

it’ll be after they score a penalty
-
Did Buendia get lost on the way to the ground?
-
That was excellent from Emi.
-
Fuck me how many does Ollie Watkins miss.
This us why I don't like the narrative that Watkins alwats starts over Ings... Ings far more clinical
To be fair he's missed a fair few this season. The Watkins one on second viewing was pretty much a luck of the draw where it goes
-
Did Buendia get lost on the way to the ground?
Well timed!
-
Buendia unlucky there but its a bit more like it. Stupid Part is we could be 2:1 up.
-
We are nowhere near close enough to these ****** when they have possession
-
Did Buendia get lost on the way to the ground?
Well timed!
It worked last week!
-
I'm not enjoying these diagonals to Rashford.
-
Poor from Ramsey.
-
Poor from Ramsey.
Should have shot
-
Shame, Ramsey did the hard work there and then completely overhit the pass.
This is a poor CM we're playing so just have to stay patient.
-
If only Cash could cross
-
Some shit balls being played. Sloppy.
-
Shame, Ramsey did the hard work there and then completely overhit the pass.
This is a poor CM we're playing so just have to stay patient.
We’re making them look good so far.
-
Overhit cross from Cash.........
-
It was a fantastic ball in from Fred to be fair but our midfield let Mcfuckface ghost past them all.
-
We’re better than this lot.
-
Watching the goal again the closing from Ings is beyond poor, but could Emi come take that??
-
Unlucky McGinn
-
We’re better than this lot.
Tell the scoreboard.
-
McGinn turned up at least. Great strike.
-
Watching the goal again the closing from Ings is beyond poor, but could Emi come take that??
Or saved it
-
Buendia is becoming a bit of an enigma.
Rock solid and impossible to dispossess sometimes and powderpuff most others.
-
We're the better side tonight.
-
Buendia is becoming a bit of an enigma.
Rock solid and impossible to dispossess sometimes and powderpuff most others.
Too much of the latter for me
-
We're the better side tonight.
Only if we win
-
Watching the goal again the closing from Ings is beyond poor, but could Emi come take that??
Or saved it
Once it's touched that close its near impossible unless it hits you.
Our midfield misses Nakamba
-
Fits and starts from Villa. We could quite easily be ahead here.
-
It was a fantastic ball in from Fred to be fair but our midfield let Mcfuckface ghost past them all.
l
Yeah, looked like trouble the minute it left Fred's foot.
We are looking pretty fluent in midfield and are opening them up, but the final ball is lacking again. Buendia could have picked Ings out when he got through and Ramsey could have slipped Cash in, but both got it wrong.
-
We lack movement when we’ve got the ball. No options.
-
Need to keep having the confidence to play through them, don't like the long aimless punts at all.
-
Targett gets beaten far, far too easily.
-
i'm just not convinced at all that Ings and Watkins works. Through an extra midfielder in there and dictate the game and tempo more.
-
Unlucky Buendia
-
Unlucky there, nice one two between Oli and Emi.
-
Luiz you dildo.
-
We could be 3-1 up here.
-
For his faults, Watkins is always alive. Ings just isn't.
-
Luiz static and watching again
-
I don't think Luiz is good enough for where we want to go. He'd be the first one I'd replace given the chance.
-
We could be 3-1 up here.
1-3 to us if we scored them.
-
Dreadful from Doug there, nearly two down.
Get the feeling early booking is playing on Ramsey's mind a bit as he's very safe in possesion.
Think Sanson will be on quickly second half.
-
Quite a lot of standing around going on by Luiz tonight, I see.
-
We're not quite pressing properly. Need to hunt more in packs. Many times we've gotten a foot to a pass of theirs but there was no one else there to help out. I'd like Watkins and Ings to maybe play a bit closer together.
-
Ings looks like an old man. Ramsey needs to trust himself more.
-
That's Ramsey's fault with a pass behind him
-
Ramsey having a poor game
-
Luiz is dreadful thus far.....
-
Sanson would be a good option in this game. We need some more movement in the middle.
-
We could do with a bit more width.
-
Watkins off the bar
-
Luiz static and watching again
We need better.
-
Unlucky Watkins again.
-
Fack sake Ollie missing good chance at that end again.
Should be 1-1.
-
Ollie did brilliantly but a terrible finish.
-
FFS bar!
-
If we don't score tonight we want our arses kicking.
-
Unlucky Ollie
-
4-1
-
Watching the goal again the closing from Ings is beyond poor, but could Emi come take that??
Don't think so, as the cross had too much pace on it.
Just had some lovely build up play which led to a decent chance for Buendia, but then some sloppy play by Luiz nearly cost us.
What a chance for Watkins.
-
BURY THAT
-
It's not unlucky, it's missing the target.
-
We are the better side, just need that bit of quality in the right places.
-
Bad miss
-
So close Ramsey
-
Shocking tackle from Shaw on McGinn.
No booking. We will get nothing from Oliver.
-
We are playing really well now, unlucky there.
-
Does everything right but the finish. We have been miles the better team though.
-
So close again!
-
5-1
-
Unlucky Ollie.
-
Ramsey's not a starter for me. Would it be better to have SJM in his position?
-
How the fuck are we losing this game!!!!
-
Everything but the final finish.
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
-
Shithousery from Dalot, taking the sting out of the momentum. As well as a nasty cut to the ankle!!
-

What a chance for Watkins.
It was Ramsey who was at fault with a shit pass
-
Other end that nicks inside the post. We've been mightily unlucky at times tonight. A pacy wide forward like Mane is what we need up top.
-
Shithousery from Dalot, taking the sting out of the momentum.
Apart from his foot pissing blood
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
I agree
-
This is the worst United team I've ever seen
-
Need to score this half. Their manager won't let this carry on.
-
We’re playing well now but you can tell it won’t be our night.
-
Shithousery from Dalot, taking the sting out of the momentum.
Apart from his foot pissing blood
Fuckin pussy (him, not you!).
-
Shithousery from Dalot, taking the sting out of the momentum.
Apart from his foot pissing blood
Fuckin pussy (him, not you!).
I’m also a pussy. Can’t believe I’ve had 3 injections this year
-
That Ramsey shut , for any other team against us , goes in
-
Shithousery from Dalot, taking the sting out of the momentum.
Apart from his foot pissing blood
Get him off the pitch then.
-
We are playing well.
We are creating chances.
But while we are nil, especially against these ******, it’s shit.
-
they need to believe they can beat this lot
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
I agree
So do I.
-
We should be winning this, need to be more clinical.
-
This is the worst United team I've ever seen
That are winning 1 0
-
It's not unlucky, it's missing the target.
Bit harsh he was reaching for it so slightly off balance.
-
Fucking hell Luiz!!
-
This is the worst United team I've ever seen
They are an absolute rabble
-
Jesus Villa, if you can't beat this lot then we might as well pack it in
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
I agree
So do I.
So do I, sadly.
-
Ref is a prick
-
I would take £50-60m for Watkins. In fairness I would sell both and replace them up top.
-
Some of Man. United's passing is dismal.
I think if we can get Coutinho and Digne into the mix we can finally do them at VP.
Dodgy first 10 minutes aside we've caused them plenty of problems in final third.
-
Buendia has been exceptional
-
STOP BANGING ON ABOUT THE 'WOLVES GAME' YOU BORING ******!
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
I agree
So do I.
That could be said of a few players. Personally don't agree Watkins is one though.
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
I agree
So do I.
I love his work rate, but he misses to many chances for me.
-
This is the worst United team I've ever seen
They are an absolute rabble
So were Brentford
-
That wasn’t even going in
-
How the fuck are we losing to this lot?
-
All this pressure. Just waiting for Manure to breakaway and make it 2-0.
-
This is the worst United team I've ever seen
They are an absolute rabble
They're dreadful aren't they. We don't deserve to be behind.
-
Buendia has been exceptional
Agreed. Think this has been his best half for us this season.
-
I think Grealish made Watkins look better than he actually is.
I agree
So do I.
I don't, he's out of form and nothing is working for him but he's still a good striker.
-
Buendia has been exceptional
He's had some nice dribbles. Still dosen't release it quickly enough or get a foul for all the possesion he has so that nice turn and run amounted to nothing in the end.
-
Ings has disappeared again.
-
Targett really is a liability the foul aside.
-
How does Fernandes not get booked there?
-
JJ booked for nothing. Bruno... Nothing
-
Fernandes is still a nasty shit faced weasel
-
How the fuck are we losing to this lot?
Because, as the saying goes, "we are Aston Villa"
-
How does Fernandes not get booked there?
I think you just answered your own question. It's Fernandes.
-
Fernandes is still a nasty shit faced weasel
Absolute thunderc**t
-
Ings a passenger
-
Ings has disappeared again.
Exactly at least Ollie is putting himself about.
-
These fuckers only need one chance against us
-
Targett not actually putting up much of a fight for his place is he?
-
Targett seemed to bottle a couple of challenges there.
-
I am increasingly annoyed by the ball being on the outside of the quadrant for a corner. This annoys me more than Brexit or Johnson or even Rees Mogg.
-
Luiz so sloppy
-
Buendia….sublime to shit in seconds
-
I am increasingly annoyed by the ball being on the outside of the quadrant for a corner. This annoys me more than Brexit or Johnson or even Rees Mogg.
All of the above boil my piss
-
Some tragic play in central midfield there. We're our own worst enemies tonight.
-
Shooting selves in foot twice
-
Buendia has been exceptional
Agreed. Think this has been his best half for us this season.
Exceptional? If he gives the ball away once more he may as well put on a red shirt.
-
Our midfield are not controlling the ball well.
-
Some loose shit by us.McGinn so quiet.
-
Targett having a poor game as is Doug
-
Keystone cops in midfield sometimes.
-
Oliver is a massive ******, I bet he’d love to have given a penalty there.
-
"We just need to get to half time 1-0 down."
-
Thought SJM was missing for the weekend match not this one
-
We really need a new centre midfield.
-
I am increasingly annoyed by the ball being on the outside of the quadrant for a corner. This annoys me more than Brexit or Johnson or even Rees Mogg.
Same here.
-
Disappointed in Targett and Luis today. Missing Nakamba
-
McTominay suspended for Saturday at least, he's their main attacking threat tonight.
-
Disappointed in Targett and Luis today. Missing Nakamba
Yes, Luiz in particular.
-
We play OK in patches but then the midfield will just give the ball away repeatedly under no pressure.
All of the midfield.
-
Suicidal passing.
-
Buendia throwing his arms about a bit too much like Marc Albrighton used too.
-
Poor from Buendia three times in a row there which put us into trouble every time.
-
Buendia keeps putting his teammates in trouble with shit passes, then having a little tantrum at them.
-
If we get one we’ll get three here.
-
Christ, we can play some lovely stuff and then follow it up with a failed three yard pass under no pressure.
-
We are being allowed so much space but not really taking advantage
-
Buendia keeps putting his teammates in trouble with shit passes, then having a little tantrum at them.
Noticed that. Combined with getting pushed off the ball too easily, I'm getting tired of him.
-
We don't have enough presence in midfield.
-
Last 10 mins or so we have been awful this feels like a pre season match
-
Fucking hell, Targett. That's why we're trying to sign Digne.
-
Lucky now
-
Jesus Targett!!! What are you trying to do with that passing?!?’
-
Buendia has been exceptional
Agreed. Think this has been his best half for us this season.
Exceptional? If he gives the ball away once more he may as well put on a red shirt.
Better get him to just stand still and make 2 yard passes then. Just to get the stats up.
-
Targett at times
-
Fucking hospital ball from targett when we had dealt with the problem
-
Konsa does just enough there.
-
Diabolical again from Targett. Good from Cash.
-
Not a bad half. Shame about the score
-
Fucking hell, Targett. That's why we're trying to sign Digne.
He's been awful tonight.
-
Matt's having a mare
-
Targett is playing like he knows he's going.
We keep giving the pissing ball away though. Utterly careless.
-
Playing way too high a line. Conceding early in second half in that manner feels inevitable.
We are still well in this and actually played pretty well on the whole.
-
We are criminally sloppy.
Please get Digne in. Targett has been awful.
-
Don’t think Utd will be that shit second half.
-
Buendia keeps putting his teammates in trouble with shit passes, then having a little tantrum at them.
Noticed that. Combined with getting pushed off the ball too easily, I'm getting tired of him.
Yep, loses it too many times, but then can come up with a great bit of play.
-
Buendia has been exceptional
Agreed. Think this has been his best half for us this season.
Exceptional? If he gives the ball away once more he may as well put on a red shirt.
Up until the commentators curse struck, he’s been very good yes.
-
The midfield are all getting in each other's way. And despite ManUre being so unstructured, they look more likely to score the next because every time they run at us we panic like the little NPCs when Wreck It Ralph crashes their party.
-
Fucking hell Luiz!!
Fucking hell Targett!!
-
Well you know things are bad when you're losing and McTominay is the opposition's best player. Sort it out Gerrard!
-
We have had a terrible last 10 minutes there after doing well on the whole.
-
Unless we get that DCM to start dominating, Coutinho may not make a massive amount of difference, particularly in this formation. Quality player, but we have to get him the ball and I can't see that with this current midfield.
-
If ever there was a performance from someone who knows he’s being replaced, then it’s Targett here.
-
After that first half I’d be happy to see Targett & Luiz replaced this month. Not good enough.
-
Targett is very clearly a confidence player. It's very clear that he has none.
-
Unless we get that DCM to start dominating, Coutinho may not make a massive amount of difference, particularly in this formation. Quality player, but we have to get him the ball and I can't see that with this current midfield.
You say that when Buendia has been on the ball many times and chances have happened as a result.
Coutinho is simply better if match fit so I'm hopeful they'll be goals and assists very soon with the same space.
-
God know's what Luiz was doing. Awful.
-
We go from the sublime to the ridiculous with such ease.
Watkins and Buendia so wasteful in possession, SJM anonymous.
Utd are there for the taking too.
-
If ever there was a performance from someone who knows he’s being replaced, then it’s Targett here.
Indeed. Buendia also causing problems and so obvious that Doug is no DM all of which SG is trying to address
-
Played quite well, but you can tell we won’t score. Also some really sloppy defensive play.
-
We have been great and just awful in equal measure. Our final ball is invariably shite and boy we like to give away needless possession.
-
Let’s hope that was our bad half.
-
Somethings not right with us.
-
Unless we get that DCM to start dominating, Coutinho may not make a massive amount of difference, particularly in this formation. Quality player, but we have to get him the ball and I can't see that with this current midfield.

I’m looking forward to seeing Coutinho and Bunedia together.
-
Even the pundits know Man. United are awful...spending all of half time talking about us for once!
-
How many times did Ings touch the ball in that first half? 3? 4? Not saying it's necessarily his fault, but something isn't working there.
-
After that first half I’d be happy to see Targett & Luiz replaced this month. Not good enough.
Luiz is playing by himself in there. Ramsey particularly and McGinn not helping at all.
We are far too open without the ball for me. Loads of chances for both teams. The correct sub would be to replace Ings unfortunately. Watkins hopeless out wide but a huge threat down the middle.
Buendia very mixed for me. Gets in great positions but doesn't protect the ball well enough.
-
I think Buendia is starting to look really good.
-
How many times did Ings touch the ball in that first half? 3? 4? Not saying it's necessarily his fault, but something isn't working there.
Need him in the middle
-

Yes could work as the two narrow 10s for sure in some games.
-
We go from the sublime to the ridiculous with such ease.
Watkins and Buendia so wasteful in possession, SJM anonymous.
Utd are there for the taking too.
They absolutely are but we're not ruthless enough. Got to be way more clinical.
-
Very quiet inside Mould Trafford apart from the away fans.
Watkins should have had a couple and Ings at least one.
Asleep for their goal.
Ref failing to see repeated late challenges by ManU, but booked Ramsey for not a lot.
Sloppiness creeping in towards the end of the first half, need to get hold of things.
Luiz immense in midfield, Targett and Ramsey our weakest players.
Plenty of empty seats in the tourist stands.
-

Fair comments but with this midfield, we will continue to ship goals. I am looking forward to the added quality of both of them, together, hopefully but we need the beef behind them to allow them the space and time just off Watkins. I think Coutinho might bring the best out of Watkins too.
-
For all the mistakes fro others, it’s Ings who needs to be replaced at halftime - he just doesn’t work in this system. Get Watkins through the middles, Sanson to offer a bit more protection in the middle and push Ramsey wider.
-
How many times did Ings touch the ball in that first half? 3? 4? Not saying it's necessarily his fault, but something isn't working there.
Because we are belting it long into the channels rather than into him to hold up and play off.
-
I think Watkins needs to really worry about coutinho coming in
-
I'd have Ramsey off for Sanson and El Ghazi on for Ings. Targett needs replacing, but someone just going to have to babysit him.
-
From putting them to the sword with sublime intricate exchanges to a passage of play in which we couldn't control the football. How does that happen so often?
-
Decent performance but poor defending for their goal. Need to calm it down a bit in their final third and have a bit more belief
-
Replace both of our fullbacks and get a decent DM and we’ve got the makings of a great side.
You just know we could be out there till tomorrow and not score. Hate playing this lot
-
I'd like to see Chuk on for Ings , push Watkins down the middle and play Buendia and Chuck narrow behind.
McGinn and Ramsay need a "dig in the ribs" at half time.
-
Ings looks and plays like a 40 year old.
-
Ings to be subbed again. His build up play is non existant.
-
I'd like to see Chuk on for Ings , push Watkins down the middle and play Buendia and Chuck narrow behind.

I agree - think he could provide something going forward.
-

Agreed.
Until we sign a player that can play the holding role like Nakamba, we need stronger arrive Luiz

I think every villa fan and their dog knows we need a DM. The various threads had this all last summer.
-
I think Watkins needs to really worry about coutinho coming in
No he doesn't.
-
played really well in patches
But sloppy distribution, defence caught out on both wings a couple of times , gone off the boil last 10 mins.
What was Ramsey booked for ?
-
Peter McParland looks brilliant for 87
-
The defending for the goal was so bad I think Mings and Konsa are angling for a move to United.
-
For all the mistakes fro others, it’s Ings who needs to be replaced at halftime - he just doesn’t work in this system. Get Watkins through the middles, Sanson to offer a bit more protection in the middle and push Ramsey wider.
Yes, this is the change I'd make too.
-
That tackle on the keeper was sublime
-
I'm enjoying the half time game!!
-
Been showing the 57 cup final. Just wish we could win in my dads lifetime...
-
Been showing the 57 cup final. Just wish we could win in my dads lifetime...
What a header that was by Peter McParland!!
-
One of the things that irritates me most about Man Utd is their attachment to dreary 'Madchester' music, in the deluded belief that it's still somehow cool.
-
Our midfield are dreadful tonight
-
Midfield giving simple balls away
-
Don't think I've seen worse passing from this side
-
Too. Fucking. Casual.
-
Fucking hell ginny, why pass towards your own goal when on the attack then ?
-
Good to see the Great Peter Mac
-
Shocking from McGinn. How many times do we set Man Utd attacks up for them.
Time and time again.
-
Buendia has the build and presence of one of my Y9 students with a bit of bum-fluff.
-
That’s a staggeringly poor pass from McGinn.
-
STOP GIVING THE FUCKING BALL AWAY!!!
-
Peter McParland looks brilliant for 87
No mate, that's Danny Ings.
-
Fucking hell ginny, why pass towards your own goal when on the attack then ?
On the radio they reckon a united player has given a shout as if he was a villa player and he played it blind
-
First Man. United booking going to be in 95th minute isn't it?
How Shaw hasn't been booked is beyond me,
-
Ffs, we seem determined to gift them a second here.
-
Shaw is a fat twunt.
-
How is Luke Shaw not in the book. 4 fouls, easily could be off.
-
And I typed that before his latest foul.
-
No booking
-
1-1
-
Fucking hell ginny, why pass towards your own goal when on the attack then ?
On the radio they reckon a united player has given a shout as if he was a villa player and he played it blind
Christ, we don’t fall for that on Tuesday night 5 aside.
-
Ings
-
Yesss
-
Fucking yes !!!!!
-
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
-
Ings!!!
-
About time. Get in.
-
Ings
-
Get the fuck in!!
-
Get iiiiiin
-
Fucking hell ginny, why pass towards your own goal when on the attack then ?

Christ, we don’t fall for that on Tuesday night 5 aside.
My groin and calf are so fucked I can't play it anymore.
-
This is getting ruled out.
-
Why is this even being VAR checked??
-
FUCK OFF YANITED YOU SCUMMY ******!!!!!
-
Fucking VAR
-
and THAT is why you buy Danny Ings stock.
-
The obligatory fucking check
-
Checking handball, hits his shin.
-
Why is this even being VAR checked??
You know, you know the answer
-
Doing their level best to rule it out aren't they?
-
VAR going to save United
-
Clear and obvious?
-
Right, your clear and obvious timer is well over now.
-
Watch these fuckers get out of jail
-
They are desperate to disallow this.
-
FARSE
-
Oh fuck off
-
They are trying everything to disallow this
-
Ffs
-
Radio sure it's a goal. Fucking VAR. Utter cheats.
-
That is an absolute disgrace.
-
Fucking var
-
FFS, I mean they give the West Ham goal yesterday when Bowen was clearly offside and don't give this.
-
Absolute joke
-
Oh fuck off!
We'll have them on Saturday...
-
Boring.
-
Ah VAR of course.
-
Cheating. That's all it is. Cheating.
-
Clear and obvious my arse.
-
What a bloody fix
-
Fucking hell. They were just longing to do that.
-
What a surprise
-
Now THERES a fucking shock....
-
BULLSHIT
-
Absolutely pathetic. He ran straight into him. Typical.
-
Ridiculous.
-
Fuck var
-
Fuck VAR out of the game. It’s just no fun watching football anymore.
-
Stupid from Ramsey, Konsa had the run on the backpost anyway.
-
They were desperate to disallow that
-
Cheating ******
-
I’m done with this. Football can go fuck itself.
-
This is absolutely rigged.
Believably unbelievable.
-
They did everything they could to find something wrong with that goal. Everything.
-
Cheating fucking ******.
-
Fuck this game - it’s absolutely disgusting. Absolutely no pretence of fair play in this, ruled onside so look for another reason to disallow the goal.
-
Fucking corrupt bullshit.
-
This is a fucking joke.
-
This game is bent.
Totally corrupt.
They wanted it so badly?
Off side? No
Handball? No.
There must be a foul. Please. Please. PLEASE BE A FOUL.
-
We might as well not bother playing these ******.
-
I'd love someone to fucking clatter the ugly fucking weasel
-
That's disgusting
-
Cheating again. Fernandez. The referee has caused this melee.
-
Bent FA wankers, glad Italy won the Euros!
-
No fucking card again
-
clear and obvious error. of course it was., that's why it took 5 minutes
-
Got to keep our discipline here, can see them suckering Ramsey into a red.
-
FUCK OFF. THAT'S NOT A FOUL.
God I hate these chasing twats.
-
To script
-
Yawn, of us.
-
EVERY. FUCKING. GAME. Desperate to find a way to disallow a goal. If that was Citeh, Liverpool or this mob, they would have looked for about 5 seconds.
-
They did everything they could to find something wrong with that goal. Everything.
100% this.
Handball X
Offside X
Senseless Contact ✓
-
They looked at every single thing to try and find something to rule that goal out.
-
Cards don’t count for the red scum
-
Wtf, absolute rubbish.
-
Three fouls shaw
-
Total and utter bullshit.
Not only did they look intentionally to disallow that goal, but the referee isn’t booking any of them really obvious challenges that need to be yellow cards.
Nasty. This will boil over.
-
The referee is so fuckkng bad. So bad.
-
So desperate to disallow that, genuinely shocking despite knowing full how bent they are
-
This game is utterly bent.
-
What a surprise that was ….. clear and obvious ? Well we know the answer
-
No point scoring. It will be varred.
-
So obviously they was looking for something with that goal
-
Luke Shaw can't be booked obviously.
-
When was the last time we didn’t have an outrageous decision against these cûnts?
-
I'm sorry, you can paint it all you like about "how can it be a set up" it's a bloody fix every year, firstly drawing them and secondly the decisions. Every single game. Might as well save the money and just give them points or progression to next round. Laughable.
-
I don't get that from Ollie.
Ramsey has nice little run, passes it to Ollie who has some space to run into and he fires a grenade straight back to Ramsey who can't control it.
So frustrating some of the poor decisions we make that end promising attacks.
-
We can fuckin forget this.
-
It’s even more frustrating as we’re playing very well at times
-
Ahh fuck it! Fucking fuck it
At least we’re getting the ball in the net.
-
Come on Villa we can win this
-
Nothing trivial for Lindehof I hope.
-
Absolutely disgusting it was as if they were searching for a reason to disallow the goal
-
Ings gone to Inzaghi school of playing offside line.
Really didn't need to be off there as pass from Buendia was perfect.
We are playing really well and totally in control but so frustrating some of the stupid decisions we make at times.
-
Why was it disallowed?
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
-
Ffs.
-
Everything is so much against us that the BBC stats aren't even acknowledging Watkins chance before the break. Still has us 0 shots for the match.
-
I can’t recall creating as much against this lot. They really are not very impressive
-
Are they only going add 3 mins again if he stays down for 10 mins like that other ****** in the first half.
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
BBC thinks a foul by Ramsey on Cavani. As others mentioned, trying to find something so looked at everything.
-
I am absolutely sick to death of this.
Sick of it.
Oliver should have sent Fernandes off for two clear bookings.
Never going to happen though is it?
-
We can fuckin forget this.
Just another hard luck story for plucky villa.
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
The first one
-
How many fouls Fernandez done
-
They'll then get a pen right? That's how it works isn't it?
Like wrestling this shit isn't it! Like it's scripted.
-
We ain’t getting nothing here tonight.
-
It’s a great game, and we’re playing well.
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
BBC thinks a foul by Ramsey on Cavani. As others mentioned, trying to find something so looked at everything.
Oh the first one. Yep. Foul on Cavani. Apparently
-
Fuck the officials aren't even hiding their bias tonight
-
Cheats it’s just plain cheating
-
I can’t recall creating as much against this lot. They really are not very impressive
And we're still losing to them.
-
I wouldn't normally say this but if one of our players could scythe that ugly ****** 'Bruno' down that'd be grand.
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
BBC thinks a foul by Ramsey on Cavani. As others mentioned, trying to find something so looked at everything.
Cavani knew exactly what he was doing, only one thing on his mind.
-

Teeth first
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
BBC thinks a foul by Ramsey on Cavani. As others mentioned, trying to find something so looked at everything.
Oh the first one. Yep. Foul on Cavani. Apparently
Ramsey stood completely still and Cavani charged into him.
It's fucking fixed.
-
A yellow cardalty!
-
Finally a card
-
Just don't think this was ever going to be our night.
-
clear and obvious error. of course it was., that's why it took 5 minutes
And was about the fifth thing they looked at. It's a narrative though, as soon as we scored, the commentator was immediately talking about it being disallowed.
Funny how a proper replay of it hasn't been shown since.
-
Honestly, I do wonder why we bother even trying to play this lot. Even when we are the better team in every sense other than the score, we are still losing and will probably not be allowed to win. It is surreal how lucky they are.
-
They've given it away endlessly tonight.
Yet we still act shocked when we receive the ball.
Another promising attack nearly ended because Doug was half asleep.
-
CHEATING FUCKS, CHEATING FUCKS, CHEATING FUCKS
-
Fair play to our players for keeping their heads. If I was playing, and could catch any of them, I'd be off. I'd go searching for that horrible little scrote Fernandes.
-
Why was it disallowed?
Ings offside
BBC thinks a foul by Ramsey on Cavani. As others mentioned, trying to find something so looked at everything.
Oh the first one. Yep. Foul on Cavani. Apparently
Ramsey literally just stands still. Doesn’t move. The var check said they were looking at offside. No, they were looking for any possible reason not to give the goal. Any.
-
Cheats it’s just plain cheating
He looked at every blade of grass on that goal
-
Unlucky Cash
-
We'll have to be careful: some one could get sent off here. At least our fans are in particularly good voice!
-
Clear and obvious error, says the rulebook. Clear and obvious. Someone still want to tell me how the refereeing doesn't favour the star trans? In this, the most rigged of all possible worlds, why would football alone be pure?
-
Honestly, I do wonder why we bother even trying to play this lot. Even when we are the better team in every sense other than the score, we are still losing and will probably not be allowed to win. It is surreal how lucky they are.
We used up our 10 years of luck in the last 5 minutes of last game.
They'll score a deflected second in next ten you watch.
-
Shaw finally in the book.
-
Just don't think this was ever going to be our night.
If ManUre go out in the 3rd round, it "devalues The Cup (TM)".
-
See Shaw can do that foul knowing he isn't booked.
A joke from Oliver.
-
That's shaws 6th bookable offence
-
Shaw should be off. He is fucking crap. No idea what happened for England when he looked good
-
Shaw should be off by now. Utter cheating ******.
-
Even if there hadn't been a 'foul' on their player for our goal, it would still have been disallowed because McAllister was picking his nose on our bench as the ball was played.
-
Come on Boro (in the 4th round while we're playing Burnley)!
-
After looking at Luke Shaw I can say I am in the same shape as a Premier League footballer.
-
We’re playing really well and deserve something more than what we’re getting
-
Woeful cross from Targett, now there's a shock.
-
Disgraceful chalenge
-
The tenth time h has checked a Villa player. At least
-
Dalot complaining about coming all the way through Targett
-
We’re not scoring are we
-
We are playing some genuinely lovely stuff here.
We are very nearly a very good side.
-
We’re not scoring are we
Either that or we score one and the floodgates open
-
We’re not scoring are we
Nope
-
After looking at Luke Shaw I can say I am in the same shape as a Premier League footballer.
I could hear the Villa fans doing the old Faith No More live at the Brixton Academy(*)
(*) = for the Millennials, there once was a time when every single venue in the UK was not called "The O2"
-
After looking at Luke Shaw I can say I am in the same shape as a Premier League footballer.
You’re almost certainly much better looking as well.
-
We should be ahead and aren’t. Not often we outplay this lot
-
So frustrating
-
We equalise and they score a second two mins later?
-
Shaw should have been sent off by now
-
Man Utd have been truly awful so the officials have decided that they'd better intervene.
It makes me want to puke. It happens too often to be a coincidence.
-
For fucks sake Cash. STOP GIVING THE FUCKING BALL AWAY
-
Cash for Philogene-Bidace maybe?
-
The only one of those red cheating ****** I’d have is Rashford. The rest are shit.
-
Cash fucking hell.
-
Cash isn’t having a great game tonight either
-
We are getting sloppy. Need some extra legs in there.
-
Think we're knackered
-
Feels like Rashford hates playing football as it gets in the way of his philanthropy work.
-
These fuckers are going to get a second on the break against the run of play, aren't they?
-
We had our moments but they were never going to allow us to win this.
-
Still time to win this!
-
Come on Villa!!
-
Feels like Rashford hates playing football as it gets in the way of his philanthropy work.
Plenty of poor kids hoping he does Jack the game in
-
We are playing some genuinely lovely stuff here.
We are very nearly a very good side.
That's my take on it. We could be winning this 3-1 and there would be zero complaints.
-
Next chance to put a free kick in we should line up 2-3 players deep who just run straight in to defenders then demand a penalty/free kick given cavani got one to disallow our goal, show the cheating fucks up at their own bullshit.
-
If Fernandes wasn't a footballer you could see him riding around on a moped stealing handbags
-
We had our moments but they were never going to allow us to win this.
Oliver is under instructions and he has duly delivered.
-
Would get Sanson on for Doug, been poor.
-
Get Luiz off
-
Only consolation is we're too shit to win the FA cup on this showing, and United definitely are.
-
I'd get a couple on here. Chucky on the bench?
-
Only consolation is we're too shit to win the FA cup on this showing, and United definitely are.
Both would struggle to beat Boro based on this showing
-
I am just sick and tired of losing to these ****** through shithousery.
-
Ghazi coming on... Ings?
-
God know's what Luiz was doing. Awful.
Been poor all match
-
Time for Anwar El Tonev to shoot us into the next round
-
I'd get a couple on here. Chucky on the bench?
Can make 5, might as well take advantage.
-
Our penalty taker is on...a tactic?
Need a couple, more fresh legs
-
Nope Buendia. Ings just slows us down, surprised he's still on
-
Would've kept Bunedia on tbh.
-
Buendia thought he had been taken off a half time
-
Varane is bloody good
-
We have run out of gas, surprising not to see more subs
-
We look knackered now, tricky playing against 15
-
Need legs in the centre midfield. Sanson and Chuck for me, Luiz and Ramsey
-
Would get Sanson on for Doug, been poor.
me too
-
McGinn has been really poor.
-
Varane is bloody good
I think he has looked very shaky!
-
Need legs in the centre midfield. Sanson and Chuck for me, Luiz and Ramsey
Feels like we've left it too late, they'll just endlessly time waste now.
-
Need legs in the centre midfield. Sanson and Chuck for me, Luiz and Ramsey
Yep worth a punt
-
And we paid how much for Ings? Jeez.
-
Need legs in the centre midfield. Sanson and Chuck for me, Luiz and Ramsey
Feels like we've left it too late, they'll just endlessly time waste now.
Well we didn't really we scored a perfectly good goal.
-
Ings had be better there.
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
-
Daylight fucking robbery but when you concede a goal like that you've only got yourselves to blame.
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
Yes
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
Nope
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
Nope
I will be honest, I have found myself wondering the same from time to time.
-
Watkins is a confidence player, but he's far more use than Ings because he can actually run.
-
Rashford has been absolutely awful today.
What is wrong with him? He looks like he's ill or something, so languid and unenergetic.
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
Nope
I will be honest, I have found myself wondering the same from time to time.
He's certainly giving us food for thought.
-
I fucking hate that rat faced ******
-
JPB ON.
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
Yes
Not half as much as Ings
-
There is something seriously wrong at Man Utd and long May it continue.
-
Ings is a much better finisher than Watkins.
-
Rashford has been absolutely awful today.
What is wrong with him? He looks like he's ill or something, so languid and unenergetic.
Genuinely don’t know
-
Gotta be 6-7 minutes added here, ref wasted 5mins working out how to disallow our goal.
-
Is it just me who thinks Watkins is massively overrated?
Nope
I will be honest, I have found myself wondering the same from time to time.
Not massively overrated but overrated none the less. The fact he works hard covers the misses for some.
-
There is something seriously wrong at Man Utd and long May it continue.
and we are still not able to beat them
-
Rashford has been absolutely awful today.
What is wrong with him? He looks like he's ill or something, so languid and unenergetic.
Genuinely don’t know
Couldn’t give a fuck
-
Ings is a much better finisher than Watkins.
Shame his lack of mobility means he doesn't get the opportunities
-
If that’s other end , that’s a pen.
-
He will never give that as a penalty
-
If that’s other end , that’s a pen.
Absolutely
-
So... Luke Shaw backhands Konsa round the face hard enough to draw blood, and it's not even reviewed by VAR
-
If that’s other end , that’s a pen.
If that's the other end, it's two penalties and we get a points deduction.
-
Konsa twatted in nose but no foul?
-
Konsa face is covered in blood but the VAR check took a millisecond.
-
Wonder if they will check this for a pen and red card...... no
-
You can't play Ings and Watins together. That is a fundamental unbreakable law like gravity and the speed of light. Gerrard needs to learn it.

Oliver now having a friendly chat with De Gea about adding on 3 minutes...even though the VAR check took about four minutes on its own.
-
This game is not straight
-
No way do we deserve to be losing this.
-
Ings is a much better finisher than Watkins.

Marginally on the evidence this season. But more to the point, we are a far worse attacking team with Ings over Watkins. Neither are up to it long term.
-
5 minute VAR review for a possible penalty? No, the normal 2 seconds.
-
There has to be at least 7 mins of injury time.?..surely ?
-
When is Ash back? What is he out with? We miss him in games like this, chirping in the ref's ear.
-
Ings is a much better finisher than Watkins.
If Watkins could finish as well as Ings, we would be at least 3-1 up by now.
-
6 added minutes. There's still time...
-
1 minute added, I assume
-
Not enough chances created
-
6 added minutes. There's still time...
Nah.
-
We haven’t given away the obligatory penalty yet. 6 mins will suffice
-
Not enough chances created
We have faded badly in the last 15 mins
-
I genuinely wonder about the integrity of some of these officials.
-
What is Luiz doing. Sigh.
-
6 added minutes. There's still time...
Nah.
I posted in hope rather than expectation! ;)
-
Worst Man U team in living memory and we still can't get a break against the shit.
-
only 6 minutes when it took 4 to rule out the VAR goal.
-
That's a free kick the other end too
-
This game is not straight
I think this the problem
-
Let's face it, it could be 60 more minutes and we wouldn't score.
-
Better quality than Target and Luiz and we will be ok.
-
How did we not get a FK there?
Watch the premier league appoint Oliver for the game on Saturday.
-

We've already had the expected dodgy VAR incident: you're getting greedy now!
-
Ings is a much better finisher than Watkins.

Six up.

2 words Phil Dowd
-
Tonev.
-
Let's face it, it could be 60 more minutes and we wouldn't score.
Or be allowed to.
-
You can't score from there
-
El Ghazi takes it off the foot of Ings
-
Stupid from AEG there, takes the ball off Ings and hits shot from stupid angle.
Doubt we'll get another attack.
-
Shite since Emi went offf.
-
I genuinely wonder about the integrity of some of these officials.
I wonder when the last time these lot won a game against us without getting a dodgy decision because i’m genuinely struggling.
-
I do hope our players avoid all handshakes and niceties with Oliver at the end.
-

Wonder why we want him out
-
Would have got archer on not el.ghazi
-
Better quality than Target and Luiz and we will be ok.
Luiz is ok
-
I do hope our players avoid all handshakes and niceties with Oliver at the end.
Me too. He's a useless ******. Shaw could have literally had 5 yellows.
-
Some of the prawn eaters are alive then? Been very quiet all night
-

Scumbaggery.
He gave the FA exactly what they asked for.
-
Rigged.
-
Cheated. Thoroughly cheated.
-
Sigh.
Massive missed opportunity there for variety of reasons.
-
Load of bollocks fuck off.
-
Wankers. Cheating VAR fuckhouses.
-

Agreed normally a decent ref but just awful tonight
-
96.00 whistle... no doubt about what he wanted as a result
-
Ings is a much better finisher than Watkins.
If Watkins could finish as well as Ings, we would be at least 3-1 up by now.
Six up.
It's a pity he's never there then.
-
It’s absolutely rigged. Tell you what, let the ****** six form a league of their own. Fucking rigged to shit.
-
The FA are CORRUPT
-
Fucking robbed. Again.
-
Those Manutd fans singing about going to Wemberlee. Deluded wankers. They will finish about 7th or 8th and won't get close to winning a fucking thing. FUCK OFF
-
Just read that Michael Oliver is the ref tonight. He shouldn't be allowed to ref a Villa game, the man's an absolutely useless twat.
Like night follows day.
