Aston Villa v Ipswich Town Post-Match Thread

[Mister E]

And Southampton get humiliated, and Wigan and Slumberland get another fixture ...
not all bad.

[Jimbo]

Didn't see it, but it sounded like a bit of experience coming back has helped us no end. The result is just what we need and delighted with goals from both Bent and Weimann.

[Percy McCarthy]

A Villa win was the least my Villa supporting father deserves on his 70th birthday.

Well done lads.

Indeed. Happy Birthday Mr Kelly. 70? Must have been about ten when he had you Mark.

Feel a bit sorry for Wolves, thought we had it bad! Solbakken's gone I reckon...

[Summers]

Two poachers get a goal each. Wonderful. Now, let's bring in some solid defenders, a creative player and a battling central midfielder and we'll be fine.

Second game running we've come from behind to get something. Good to see there's still fight in that dressing room.

Job done.  Let's build from here.

Actually looking forward to watching MOTD tonight, albeit probably only for about 30 seconds.

The other bonus(es) from today: Sunderland, Fulham, QPR and Wigan all have replays to contend with now, also Newcastle & Southampton both received confidence bashing thumpings!

Well done lads and especially Joe Bennett. Nice to see Southampton getting battered at home before next week as well.

[Goldie.7]

Through to the next round that's all that matters. Well done Villa.

[Irish villain]

Great to see so many back in contention. Some of the younger players need a spell to recover their confidence so hopefully Bent, N'Zogbia and Gabby can come into their own this January.

In the hat, job done.  Good work out for the squad, should build confidence.  Always good to come from a goal down to win.  Also good to see some players back from injury.

[Somniloquism]

Actually looking forward to watching MOTD tonight, albeit probably only for about 30 seconds.

Will be on ITV so might not get any coverage at all apart from camera phone shaky footage or an advert.

[LeeS]

The key is that we now have options. He rested Benteke and can now leave Ireland where he belongs - on his backside. I'd play Gabby, Bent and Benteke on Tuesday and bring Weimann on if we need to.

Not getting carried away but it feels like we are over the psychological trauma of Chelsea now.

Oi, Grandad, I'm years younger than you. Saying that, the ol' fella would kill us both. Even now I know not to mess with him.
