Aston Villa v Rotherham United Post-Match Thread

Fuck Spurs.

[Toronto Villa]

We can win the game.

Why are we no 27 in the draw, when Arsenal are no 1, and it seems to otherwise be alphabetical?

Home draw and they will act like a top team and rotate. We can do them.

Well, it will be interesting to see what sort of team Spuds put out.  With Eriksen and Lamela coming in, they look like they will have a big squad.  Big game under the lights though, the young lads will see the Carling Cup as their chance to win something and really kick start this era.  I think we'll be right up for it and it could be a cracking match.

I'm guessing most of the team balls were allocated today before tonights matches and anyone playing today got the later numbers.

I still cant get a decent gif that shows the build up in full. This doesnt do the third justice at all.

ah, fair enough, just seemed a tad odd

Exactly - let's make Villa Park rock them and their over paid mercenaries to the core. I want them sot Americans shitting their pants.

Didn't even realise chaps but you know what we got today?

A CLEAN SHEET. Wooooo!

[Ozzjim]

If that third goal isn't the best goal we score this season then we're in for something very special.

Just said the same here. Stunning goal, and regardless of the opposition, it was a truly brilliant bit of football.

Please Weimann looked much more like himself tonight. We need him like that, being a terror and working hard as it seemed to not be there last couple of weeks.

Delph unnervingly or otherwise improving the way Yorke did when given a chance after a few years on the margins/sideline.

We didn't concede a goal!! In a competitive match!!

Surely the FA will hold some sort of inquiry into the betting patterns surrounding the fixture.

Incidentally, the BBC seem to think that Rotherham had more possession of the ball than we did.

I'd be intrigued to see how they worked that one out.

I look forward to seeing adebayor and the rest of the Spurs bomb squad, lose to us in round three.

Because if there's one game this season where their misfits will definitely get a run out, it will be this one.
