Burton 1-3 Aston Villa post match thread

I was certain it was going to penalties.  A lot of possesion but not as easy as the scoreline suggests, I thought Burton tried hard and in fairness got through a couple of times.  Class won through in the end.

Does that gobby little dwarf twat still manage Bristol City?

Ramsey the big positive.
Jack gave a masterclass in wide play and showed he is worth every single penny to us.

The shit list now consists of
Taylor
Jota
Lansbury
AEG

These lot are nowhere near good enough.

Hause is close to being on my shit list, but not quite.
He looked like a big, awkward, ambling CH, which is not what is needed in the PL.

Dougie showed his class in few mins he was on.

What was the point of playing Ange and Jota? - really??!!
Ramsey looked good, Davis took his goal well, Watkins will just get better and better.

Defence ... worrying.

Spare a thought for poor Coventry - went out on pens to Gillingham 😂

No.

Jota poor.

He came on for 14 minutes and we scored two goals, very harsh.

Nah. It’s someone who lives over the road from me, such is their unimpressiveness.

Given there were only 3 people in that team who will start on Monday I think that's a decent performance. We got caught treating it like a friendly in the first minute but after that we were pretty dominant, even with a few players having a really average night.

Jack was head and shoulders above everyone else, Watkins looked exactly what we needed up front, Davis came on and put himself about, got involved and got a very good goal and Ramsey looked like he's not far from being involved regularly.

Elmo was probably our worst player with Lansbury and Taylor not far ahead.

I see some pundits are already calling the Villa v Sheffield United game next week 'The Hawkeye derby'.

[Deano's Mullet]

Can’t argue with the win, three decent goals, our new contract hero scored and the kit looks much nicer than last season so I am happy.

[rougegorge]

I thought that was unnecessarily going to penalties until Lansbury finally contributed for Jack’s great finish.

However we really didn’t make the 17 year old keeper work enough, although we were deserving winners in the end.

Pundits or twats ?

[LukeJames]

That first goal is fucking ridiculous from Jack, pulled 4 defenders to him and took them all out with one pass.

A professional job with some very encouraging signs, along with some understandable weaknesses. That'll do me!
