Aston Villa vs Leicester City Match Thread

[Damo70]

Get the 3rd and open the eggnog. 

Weren't we 4-1 up v these once and it ended 4-4?

Yes, in a midweek game when Brian Little was manager.

Beat Wimbledon 7-1 the game before IIRC. Can remember it being 4-1 and think that *this* was how it was going to be at Villa for the rest of the season. We were going to destroy all comers by a cricket score.

I was young & naïve.

No, we drew 4-4 against Leicester the previous season to the season we beat Wimbledon 7-1. I was living abroad when we drew 4-4 but I was back home for a visit and attended the 4-4. By the time we beat Wimbledon 7-1 I was living back in England. It was shortly before Christmas when we thrashed Wimbledon and there were long and loud chants of "Merry Christmas Wimbledon" from the Holte end. I was at the game with my fiance at the time and it was her first time at a proper football match.

This is the value of having experienced players in the team.

Emi wasting time like last week and Young trying to get the Leicester diver sent off.

Nakamba has really improved in such a short time

They were both in 94/95.

You're getting confused with the 5-0 win at Christmas in 96/97.
