Playing well

[SamTheMouse]

If we play like that every game, the pressure on McLeish will disappear faster than a walnut whip at a weightwatcher's meeting...

[TonyD]

No subs at HT please.    Not often I hear that.

[PaulWinch again]

We can pass the football and surprise surprise we are much much better it. N'Zog looks really threatening and Hutton has played really well.

[citizenDJ]

Close from Bannan, good free kick. He really does have it all, young Barry, doesn't he?

He still lacks a bit of sense knowing when to play it simple and when to be clever.

Well, that's true, but then I suppose that all comes with playing, really.

Hi Risso, I reckon you're right but this set-up tonight looks like the best way of doing just that in my opinion, especially with the two defensive midfielders to back him up.

Good half of football, that. It's just a relief to see us looking like a team that can play a bit, to be honest.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I know we are behind, but this is more like it, passing to each other and playing with some drive. Keep it up, I'm starting to believe we can get something.

Exactly, if we can start producing something in the final third, attacking the Holte, we can most certainly get something.

Deeboy, try this.

[Tuscans]

Nice to hear the fans clapping at half time, nice to know they can see we're playing well all be it 1 down from a silly mistake.

Same again Villa and Im sure we'll get something out of this....

[Fergal]

We are playing well, an early goal would be good. (stating the bleeding obvious)

[taylorsworkrate]

Decent performance. Do not deserve to be behind at all.

N'zogbia and Albrighton very lively, Hutton having his best game, Clark's made a difference and played well apart from the daft challenge for the penalty.  Sad that Ireland's had to go of, as he has played really well. He's made some excellent runs into the box and passed it nicely.

Only let down has surprisingly been Gabby, whose has poorly been caught offside a couple of times, and given the ball away too much.

[dean saunders left boot]

Really impressed with how we've played first half, attacking, looking to get forward, not just sitting back. If we come out like this in the 2nd half i'll be happy, even if we lose. The football is positive, and thats all I want to see from the team. UTV

[PaulWinch again]

No more Collins and Heskey in the side please.

[Edvard Remberg]

Quite encuraging football from Villa - i can accept losing against teams like Arsenal when playing like this.
