Keeper still should of gone

Midfield 3 have done well and worked hard. A couple of moments of lost composure from Vlaar but the back four have done OK. The problem is that you can't have two or three mistakes at the back because they will get punished. The front three could do with a few better balls not just long balls to run after.

Even Winterburn agrees with that on Setanta.

We will probably find Tony Moon going off for a second yellow.

How on earth that was yellow for Tony Moon I don't know!

Well, after they scored it looked like they'd just pick us off but it's been reasonably even since then I'd say. Arsenal will never win titles again if they can't put teams to the sword more effectively.

Gabby's pace has got us the goal and a few set pieces too. Westy has grown into the game. Delphs been iffy. KEA has been too cumbersome on and off the ball. He goes after an Arse player and by the time he gets there, the player has fucked off 20 yards in another part of the pitch by then.

Tony Moon is like a rabbit in headlights. He's making Joe Bennett look like Roberto Carlos.

Anyway, the game could go either way second half. Arsenal keep dithering, and they'll leave themselves open for a counter. We look as ropey at the back as normal, and Vlaar seriously needs to hold position a bit more. Their goal all started from him rushing out and getting caught in no mans land.

Come on lads. Lets win this. That'll be 100 quid in the bank for me. Villa to win, Benteke to score. I'm almost there.

You're bloody miles away yet mate ;-)

What pissed me off with their goal was committing several people forward and then playing the ball short, losing it quickly and then not being able to get back and cover.  We then did exactly the same thing five minutes later and nearly lost the ball again.

Tony Moon was booked for not wearing a red shirt.

link gorn..wha's happening?

[Tuscans]

Lets get something other than a fat zero on the board after 4:45 guys

[PaulWinch again]

Come on Villa you can do this.

[Rigadon]

link gorn..wha's happening?

The players are sitting down having an energy drink.  Arsene Wenger is telling the Arsenal players to carry on whinging to the ref until he send one of the nasty Villa players off. 

[Tuscans]

Would rather Chamberlain staying on then Carzola playing

[Fergal]

Is this enjoyable? Is it ever?! Just feels like non-stop nerve shredding game after game. When's the cricket back on?

Thats how I feel, shredded already.

Here we go
