We’ve been excellent, but need to get that second goal.

really good from Ramsey there, just a shame he couldn't get the pass in front of Ollie.

I'd forgotten Ramsey was playing until then.

Thought he'd done OK. Linking up nicely on a few occasions

Mings has morphed into prime era Baresi, magnificent. Dendoncker has been very good as well.

Looked a pen on Watkins. BT just glossed over it with a couple of piss poor replays.

Blatant peno not given to Watkins too. Really good football being played by us. The comparison with the game at Fulham...seems like from another age. Just need the second goal and we will annihilate these tonight. Luiz despite all the close attention has put on a bit of a passing clinic at times. I'm happy with the Donk too, offers something different and deceptively quick too.

Fulham don't look bothered. Lots of basic.errors and half chasing down. We need to put these away.

Dendoncker has been very good as well.

Just wish he was a bit more confident going forward

Should definitely have had a pen too

"Aston Villa have scored in all 20 of their Premier League games under Unai Emery, the longest consecutive scoring streak from the start of a manager's tenure in the competition's history"

19 was a record too I think.

Still valid each time it happens.

Sometime in 2025, "Aston Villa have become the first team to score in the first one hundred games of a new manager's tenure..."

We could do with another couple just to bring the goal difference closer with Spuds.

It's like we're playing a different sport to the shite Gerrard served up at Craven Cottage.

I know I shouldn't but I still shit myself when we play the ball as we do at the back

I do too, a little, but what's noticeable is how wary the opposition is to pressing TOO much, compared to when we first started doing it.  Teams have been hurt when they've been sucked in by our back four knocking it about, and they're learning not to be too gung-ho in pressing us.

I thought it was a penalty. But not a clear and obvious mistake. I would be happy if VAR was implemented like that, but consistently.

Well on top, but need to step it up a bit, we should win this one comfortably.
