Aston Villa vs Leicester City Post Match Thread

What a nice feeling.
The first half felt like a Lambert game, although a bit more positive than usual.
But the second half was a definite change, and a much better feel about the team.
And Cleverley? Well, what a transformation.
I haven't had a good word to say about the bloke before, but today I thought he was excellent.

Onwards and upwards!

Just been watching the BBC half time coverage. Heskey and Pat Heard

Heard was introduced as a Villa legend. Laughable. And shown on screen as 'a 1982 European Cup winner' No he wasn't!!!!

Emile was Ok though. Peter MacParland looks well . Now he is a legend. In fact the Villa Legend!

What is also reassuring is that he had his head in hands or shook head in disbelief at the right moments. He's going to organise this shambles, I'm sure of that.

I mentioned during the match, but he seemed to be asking why we had everyone back for a freekick they had against us just inside our half.

I just don't think Lambert would have got that 2nd half performance.
After months of sterile, timid and negative football this feels so much better.

His winners medal says otherwise.

Emile is always OK with me.

That's where me and RedSox went before the game.

Were you there? I was and he didn't play. Dont be so ridiculous!

I see what you are getting at but as far as I am concerned unless you played some part in the actual Final you cannot possibly be a winner.

You do realise the subs got a winners medal as well don't you? You'll look pretty ridiculous if you don't.

I didn't realise at the time but benteke's ball to Sinclair was beautiful. Poor guy would love a pass like that

[Lizz]

Similar to the previous round in that we went 2-0 up then had to worry after a last minute goal and the possibility of a replay. Happy though.
