Aston Villa v Arsenal Match Thread

This is too easy for them. If we don’t get more control they’ll score.

[Risso]

Why do some players were fucking gloves?  It's so absurd. 

Helps Emi catch the ball!

[Toronto Villa]

We are playing with fire here. They are going to score if we don’t sharpen up.

[Rigadon]

FFS Villa, get a foot in and hold the ball

[jwarry]

I’m beginning to think Jack could do with a rest

Ha!

Got to get Grealish on the ball bring us up the pitch

[Woody17]

I’d take Marvellous off (who’s on a yellow anyway) and give the new lad a run out.

Nakamba and Barkley off for me.

Ha!

As soon as I hit the 'post' button

[Risso]

I think Luiz needs to come on for Nakamba or John McGinn.

[PaulWinch again]

Dean get the midfield sorted out. We’re not retaining the fucking ball.

[The Edge]

Do they still use the magic sponge? Still remember Tony Daley getting a sponge in the face and magically recovering from a kick in the bollocks.

The mantle of the magic sponge has been taken up by primary schools in the the form of a wet paper towel.  It cures all known ailments.

From what I remember from my playing days it's not the sponge that did the trick it was the threat of it being used that got us on our feet on a freezing cold day

[Risso]

We're so sloppy in possession at the moment.
