I don’t mind fcuking losing it’s expected.  But you work that hard for 80 minutes then you get three cnuts on the pitch and one playing PS5 shafting us over a blatant offside.  Everything can fcuk off.

Having had another look, I was harsh on Mings in the match thread. That was a horrible decision and the fact that VAR has not corrected it says all I need to know about VAR. We may well have lost the game anyway, but by giving that goal it changed everything. How is the system allowed to stay in place as it currently stands?

And John Moss is a prize cnut

It's quite obviously bent.

I don’t think we played that well, Jack was fairly quiet, Barkley poor,  Traore all over the place first half and McGinn veering between brilliant and comically bad.  And we sat too deep second half – perhaps jaded from the COVID and the extended break? 
But we were defending brilliantly and looked good for a hard fought draw, with even a chance to nick a win like we did at Wolves and Leicester.
All undone by dodgy officials (again) or a Mings fuck-up (also again) take your pick.  And then the kind of penalty that they have stopped giving because they were deemed ridiculous.
Small margins count hugely in this league and we get the rough end of far too many decisions.
Good on Deano for telling him what CU Next Tuesday he is.

We looked dead on our arses after 55 minutes, did well too stay with them for so long.

The 'funny' thing is when the 1st went in I was in an air of calmness because it was always going to be dissalowed.... That is never in a million years given if its the other way round.

Actually created a few great openings but we were sloppy (understandable in the circumstances)

[West Derby Villan]

Good performance considering the lay off. Bit unfortunate we had to play against 12 men

[Steve67]

We played well enough and created some good chances.  I love that BT showed Grealish kicking people, trying to make him out as a dirty player.  Man City are a cracking side and really need no help from the officials but both goals were completely dodgy.  Moss was nowhere to be seen when the ball hit the City defender in the box earlier in the game. I feel robbed and I hope that Villa use it as a motivation to beat Newcastle on Saturday.  We needed to retain the ball better but we have only lost two games on the road.  Shove the Manchester wankfest up your arse.

Trying to explain the offside rule to anyone has now become a whole lot harder

[aj2k77]

Full kit, computer game watching, telly studio wankers have beaten us today.

Hate the result. Pleased with the defence. Worn a groove in the carpet from the pacing. On the other hand, if those points for city mean utd or Liverpool don't win the title I will take it. If, however they stand between us and the title I will be a "bit" hacked off.

[PaulWinch again]

Very fine performance in the circumstances. Terrible decision for their first goal - and if that is allowed the rules are wrong. Targett was fucking brill.

Hopefully we recover well and batter Newcastle. We’re a seriously good side.

[Border villan]

Proud of the effort they all put in. Several were out on their feet before the end.
Onward to Saturday.

[CT Villan]

I know it's childish, but I'd really like to have seen the whole team walk off after the two Manchester ref/VAR decisions. The statement it would make would be enormous. Of course the FA would fine Villa for not towing the Sky 6 line but imo it would be worth every penny.
