Thats better

El Ghazi should have been subbed! We cannot afford to go down to 10 men.

[beness]

Leaving Al Ghazi on could be a bad move but i guess he's gambling on a good assist.

[Proposition Joe]

Better this half so far

[NorthYvillan]

How’s that not a penalty for the pull on Mings via VAR?

We're Aston Villa. We don't get those

[rougegorge]

AEG getting a red this game for sure....

No doubt he'll use it to prove he played in this game.

Well he's still doing more than one or two others

[lovejoy]

Let’s be fair, Mings has stood up here.

Var deciding it wasn't a shirt pull.

[Demitri_C]

In the first 3 minutes we have done better than whole of the 1st half

Asked to sum up the mood in the camp just before the game, Dean said 'determined.'  In which case, I wouldn't like to see them play when they're feeling half-arsed.

Maybe he meant determined to get me fired.

[Chris_Jephcott]

Mings has the bit between his teeth

[Toronto Villa]

Much better now.

[jwarry]

Much better

[Martyn Smith]

Absolutely no press in that first half. Completely overrun in midfield and everything left to the last line of defence.

But it does look like Aston Villa have come on for the second half, at least...

Buendia linking well. Not quite the end product, yet.
