Available Sunday evening.

Terrific result that, first half we showed potential. Bent superb.

[Somniloquism]

3 well earned points with a smattering of extreme good fortune for most of it. Shame we couldn't quite keep the clean sheet though.

[Goldie.7]

Delph was class today motm for me.

Great result. Really did nt see that coming today!! Some awful reffing in our favour and we rode our luck, but its about time we had some.
Bent really is class..if Rooney had scored that first it would be shown round Europe all week.

[KevinGage]

Still can't keep a clean sheet.

Rubbish.

[Apyadg]

That was about as good as today could have gone, all results.

[Archie]

We needed  a satisfaction, one of the few of the season.
Well done Villa, UTV.

But we must not deceive ourselves, it's too easy with the  "ramshackle" Arsenal that we saw today, the impression is that their players were playing against their own manager.
On a hilarious note,  with Richard Dunne in action it's quite sure that you can't keep a clean sheet. The way he marked van Persie is simply ridiculous.

Immense team performance today, Friedel the defence , midfield and Bent.

[Deano's Mullet]

Bit lucky with the ref and we sat back a bit too much but thank god for that. Our best league result for at least a year. Wonderful result - and looks like Blues are in trouble too.

I predicted us getting a real tonking.  Dinner tonight will be a starter of humble pie followed by a main course of my hat.

[TheSandman]

Cracking result. I told you all we would win.

Delighted.

Bent is fucking ace. Love him.

[D.boy]

Now that's what you call a super sunday.

[Greg N'Ash]

Well well well....... no lack of fighting spirit there. We rode our luck but a committed performance from nearly everybody. Bent is a class class act. two chances and bang in the net. Where would we be if we'd had him from the start of the season? Breathing down Liverpool's neck?

On the negatives:

Dunne - given the amount of times its happened this season there has to be a point when the line between unthinking ineptitude and willful sabotage is crossed. I suggest the club check his bank statements for any payments from SHA Holdings ltd.


Delph - sorry but he looks a very very limited player to me


Overall a good effort and a nice reposte from GM to all his critics.
