Chelsea vs Aston Villa Match Thread

I’ve never enjoyed us playing at Stamford bridge

Today is the loudest its been in ages.

[Risso]

Good start, threatening.

[cdbearsfan]

Better team so far. Come on Villa.

[tomd2103]

Oh, not bloody Jim Beglin! He hates us.

Thought the same when I heard his voice.  Just spouts clichés and always seems very negative.

[DB]

Ian Darke is awful.

[The Edge]

I see the ref has decided that getting kicked from behind isn't a foul anymore.

[Risso]

Let off

[Bad English]

FFS Mings!

[Chris_Jephcott]

Grealish got lucky there. Could have been 1-0 to them

[Proposition Joe]

Mason Mount's hair - he wouldn't look out of place in the Leningrad Cowboys.

[baddowvillans]

How can we Liverpool Beglin, say Jack sometimes makes no attempt to stay in his feet when Salah and Mane are diving constantly.  Bet he doesn't call them out  - I expect they're "clever"

[SamTheMouse]

Come on boys, let's do these cockney sparrers!

Erm, Cockneys are East End, Chelsea are West End

I was deliberately generalising about Lahndahners in a dismissive fashion.

But thanks for pointing that out.

[Risso]

Corner!

[jwarry]

Oops Jack

[The Edge]

Grealish got lucky there. Could have been 1-0 to them

Martinez had it covered
