Aston Villa 7 (SEVEN) - 2 Liverpool - post match thread

[maidstonevillain]

30% possession - 7 goals

In fairness it's easy to dominate possession when you have eight kick offs.

Doing the rounds:

When did Liverpool  kick off?

Every 15 minutes.

Last night can be summed up in five words: Floor well and truly wiped.

One thing for sure, in thirty years time, no one will be scrambling around looking for footage of it as we are for the first massacre of 1976.

[Smirker]

It was unbelievable.

Are we back? Are we really back?

I usually roll my eyes at international breaks, as England are so pedestrian.

But having two weeks to dwell on us thumping the world champions is very pleasant.

I’ll be devoting tonight’s indie show to our routine five goal home win over Liverpool, (although it seems to happen every season these days).

Join the fun and frolickery online 9-11pm www.mearnsfm.org.uk . I is milking this win for all of its worth 😬😎

Don’t much care for this band but can’t resist playing them tonight...

The club should put the game out on dvd, be a great Christmas present.

The sort of thing the Throstles would do.

I was thinking the same. Maybe wait for one at the end of the season entitled the top 10 matches of the Champion season and this one is 7th best.

Exactly - we don't need a video to let people know - anyone with an ounce of a footballing brain that saw that game knew what we did to them.

It should be immortalised but in a greatest hits compilation as im sure before we are finished we will have a good few to add to it

Can I request 'The Magnificent Seven' by The Clash please?

The Thriller at the villa.
Here's a memory trigger:

https://www.avfc.co.uk/news/2011/12/15/today-in-1976-astonishing-villa-put-champions-liverpool-in-a-spin

It's great to read all the reports today isn't it?
A scoreline like 7 (seven) - 2 adds another dimension to the aftermath.
If we'd won 2-1, then although we'd have been rightly pleased, it wouldn't have same impact.
Think about the fallout from our 8-0 loss at Chelsea under Lambert - Liverpool won't be able to just shrug this off
and we can add a huge amount of confidence.

Might go and watch the recording again...

I remember their wanker fans rubbing it in when the beat us 6-0 the year we went down. Tonight was the kick in the bolloxs they deserve.

Enjoy tonight, after a long 10 years, we have our football club back.

Well overdue bud.

I told my 5 year old about the results this morning. Half his school mates like Liverpool and ManUtd and they seem the the teams they adopt when playing at break times. I told him to make sure everyone knew the results and to tell them exactly who he was going to be today. He said 'I'm Villa and Jack Grealish'.

The look of wonder in his face when I told him Liverpool had got 2. 'Oh, we lost?' then I counted out the goals one by one on my fingers.... Magic!

I showed my lad the score and he thought we'd lost 7 - 2 until I made him look properly.

[Villa Lew]

The 1976 5-1 win was the most amazing 45 mins I've seen at VP, but last night was the most amazing 90 mins I've seen. Barkley replacing Conor probably added 2 maybe 3 goals to the scoreline, thought he was immense.

Listened to MOMS podcast on Ross Barkley, that was aired right after the Stoke game.
I can recommend that experience! Its such an accurate analysis on what I could mean if Ross slots into that midfield and things start bouncing off him..
Jack, Mcginn , Watkins, Liuz, Trez...you can hear the hope and excitement... They are excited but of cause they can't  predict what would  happen on Sunday.
You can tell that they thought Liverpool would be to hard...but there is that hope that it will be a good performance...that we are stronger then last year.
Then with that Wonderful 7-2 game in hindsight while you listen....you smile all day.  Do that instead of some pundit doom and gloom on the Liverpool performance.
Enjoy how this ignites Villa much better story and looking forward to how MOMS feel AFTER that game.
