Wolves 0-1 Aston Villa Post Match Thread

[LukeJames]

People saying were lucky? Nope, we spent £18m on one of the best keepers in Europe.

Mike Dean.  No doubts his bestie Dopey Dermot will stick up for him on Monday morning in his Sky Refwatch shite.  Something like 9 yellow cards and two reds.  Anyone would think that it was a game of carnage when there was hardly a bad foul in the game.  Absolutely crazy refereeing.  I appreciate you cannot lead with your elbow when jumping, but Luiz's first booking was harsh in the extreme. 

Anyway, great win, when we didn't play brilliantly, but we weren't crap either. Mind the gap now you knobbers!!

Dean at 3000+ now. What a career he is without equals.

I’m sure some of their fans fell asleep at the end of the 50’s and didn’t wake up until 3 years ago, then the children of these parents haven’t been told about how Wolves had to train in Asda’s car park.

[Morleys left boot]

They are very upset that we turned up at the" theatre of the deluded " and had the audacity to take all the points home
Oh happy days !

[PaulTheVillan]

It just does not get better than a 94th minute winner. At Wolves.

Great bottle shown by El Ghazi. Fantastic, man.

A great Heskey header late on at Molineux from a Warnock (?) cross in Houllier's first game in charge was pretty special.

Edit, here it is. What a header from Emu!

One of the best away games I’ve ever been to

[cdbearsfan]

Likewise. Tremendous fun. Also enjoyed the game where we won because of two Robbie Keane screamers, and a game where we were four-nil up and they were streaming out at half time. Had some lovely days out at Molineux.

Villa were jammy today. But it feels so good when we do the ram raid and get the points! Pretty even game. I’ve not seen any stats, but it seemed to me, we had the better possession, but Wolves had the better quality overall. Some fantastic saves from Martinez, players chucking themselves at everything on both sides. Mike Dean is a c**t of a referee.

No, we weren't jammy.
We battled it out and got the break at the end.

I thought we were jammy. On another day they could’ve been at least 2-0 up before the penalty. And it didn’t really look like a penalty to me either. Glad we won, but it was one of those games where we got a lot of luck instead of none at all.

2019/20 Aston Villa away (19 games): 11 points

2020/21 Aston Villa away  (5 games): 12 points.

We are MUCH braver this season. No way would last year's Villa have been chasing a winner with a man disadvantage away to a team that has spent the last two years competing in and around the European places.

The whole mindset has changed and the manager, coaching staff and players all deserve shitloads of credit.

[Matt C]

Agreed, but we have one out on loan at the moment.

How’s he getting on?

[Toronto Villa]

I would love to see Samatta get another chance with us. In this team with more confidence and better players.

[robbo1874]

I think the lad Ramsey has a bright future ahead of him if he keeps his head down and keeps learning he has a kind of aura of belonging at this level which I guess is quite rare for a player of his age. He may not start the next game, but he definitely staked a claim today. Hopefully he’ll be selected in merit and not out of necessity in the coming months. Very promising youngster.

I thought that we’d sold him. Where is he?

On loan at Fenerbache

[robbo1874]

Ah that’s right he went on loan. Any idea how he’s going on in Turkey?
