Leicester City 0-1 Aston Villa Post Match Thread

When is the last time Villa started a season with 4 straight wins?

Brilliant result. A very well ground out result. Once again, very well organised and another clean sheet. We'll play better as an attacking force, but grinding out games like this, particularly against a decent side, will be what may just see us have a good season. Keep it up Villa.

Even at 0-0 and in a game where our final ball looked off for way too long, there was plenty to be impressed by.

We looked like we were playing with the same energy in the 88th minute as we were in the eighth.

Also - and it's not necessarily something to advertise - but on the few occasions where they did turn us and get a man over, we were cute enough to get the foul in.  No longer are we nice to play against.

Somebody needs to start the "Doing a Leicester" thread.  This team is fucking brilliant.

Fucking excellent. What a perfect time to score.
Game management after that was brilliant.

I rate Harvey Barnes, he’s an excellent player, who didn’t have a fecking kick tonight.

Traore looked the business when he came on. Jack was wonderful, Watkins worked his balls off.

Top, top away performance. As someone else said, we belong in this division.

So, will we go into the New Year with work still to do, or will we have the title sewn up by Christmas?

We finished 2nd and set the record for most goals in a season. Pongo scored 10 in those 4 games.

[Edvard Remberg]

Fuck me! Is it first time in around 90 years we won first 4 games?

[CT]

What a team performance that was.

Konsa, Mings, all of them. Trez’s work rate was immense.

In the old days, I’d have said that is the type of result and performance that win titles.

Up the fucking Villa.

[SamTheMouse]

Fucking brilliant, watched with my boy and we went bloody nuts when the goal went in.

One hundred percent record so far, the title tilt is on!

In all seriousness, we are definitely back in our rightful place.

Thank God for our owners and Dean Smith.

34 games away from a perfect season.

The Invincibles!

[exigo]

And now you're gonna believe us.
(We're a third of the way to staying up)

[Scovilla]

French commentors are really shit. Villa won and they are on and on about fofana. Fuck them.
I love you Villa.

We would have lost that game last season. Great to see us get 2 wins in the last 2 games in totally different ways.

Brilliant lads, get in. Pity we can be watching it live.
