Aston Villa v Arsenal Post Match Thread

Try imagining getting your teeth smashed out by an Andy Roberts lifter like Botham did at Lords in a practice match

I couldn’t watch the end. Turned off on 82 minutes, stuck sweet Caroline on and paced the house and garden like a lunatic for 20 minutes until turned the telly back on. What relief. Firmly believe the players and staff know nothing is achieved yet and they will be in the right frame of mind for Sunday.

I can only picture all you cricket types as wearing Portillo coloured trousers with a jauntily tied yellow V-neck over the shoulders!

No sweater over the shoulders, I'm afraid, but I'd love a pair of Portillo's trousers. As long as he hadn't already worn them.

I see that Derby lad has changed his tune (the troll with the 'Villa's goin down, down, down, down, down' tune)...

Still an utter bellend, but fair play to him. Good sport.

And for those that don't have the twitter....

Villa won against Arsenal I'm hearing?

Above the bottom three going into the final day?

Alexa, pause that tune. Disappointed but ...

Things like that make me glad I'm not on social media anymore. It's like an aircraft hangar full of Britain's Got Talent contestants, but without Simon Cowell calling them talentless ****** and telling them to go home.

Anyone seen the interview with Kalvin Phillips today - that has been so helpfully shared by the Meaning Evil site?!

I didn't know he was Derby. I assumed he was a scummy little Wolves fan.

Irritating twat. Let's hope he doesn't have the last laugh! Haha.

Yeah, 5 for Mings is absolutely mental. He was excellent.

Nearly cost us two goals, while having to deal with a forward that bombed on loan at Leeds

i only watched the last 20 mins Vinnie- it was mental. I remember the Lino overruling the ref to give them a free kick I was sure they’d score from. She looked about fkn 17.

No, just their headline about Tony Adams telling Arsenal to buy one of our players. I'm guessing Jack but I didn't click on the article for obvious reasons.

Being supportive as ever, are they?

Nope, it's Doug he's after.

Phew what a night, superb performances from Guilbert, Mings, Konsa, Jack and of course Trez, what a strike, and I would also give a mention to Nakamba, played well when he came on. Only downsides were the Davis miss and injury to Elmo, hopefully he will be available. If we can put the same performance in on Sunday, then we can do it, though not sure how my old ticker is gonna survive another 90 mins plus of torture.

I know they had a Kronke out banner flown over the ground last night but surely he’s a better bet than a bloke who has been dead for 2 years.

Anybody worried about our keeper?

Somehow he got MOTM on Talksport (!) despite the fumble and not having a shot to save.
I guess I would still go with him for Sunday.

The defence put up a really good display. Hause's injury was a blessing in disguise as Konsa is better in his normal position allowing us to play full-backs at full-back.
