Aston Villa v Brighton Match Thread

[eamonn]

This high-line strategy is giving me kittens. Can't see us keeping a clean-sheet in the second but Brighton look ropey enough in their own third especially once we rob them. Have a feeling this is going to be 3-3 and we'll miss out thanks to Leeds.

Brighton have been the better team here. We need to up the intensity again. They’ve got a few better players to potentially come on and give them a lift in the second half.

No they haven't. They've had a spell, that's it. We could be 4 up and they'd have no complaints.

Need a 3rd early in the 2nd half. I have faith. Other results aren’t being great to us at the moment. Need Leeds to show some spine.

[Toronto Villa]

We really need Spurs to do what they do best and shit the bed in the second half. We get a third goal and see this thing out

Ideal scenario

This is worrying how they get past our high line. We need another goal. At some point they’ll bring their big hitters on. Please don’t chuck away a final day 2 goal lead two years running, Villa

[KevinGage]

Whatever we do, we'll have to do for worselves.

Leedzzz look absolutely hopeless.

Elland Road like a wake.  And not a party party Irish one.

Come on villa

And Leicester as Deano

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Shocking ref again, giving out cards like he's on commission. Brighton players rolling around and every time he buys it.

[CT Villan]

This is not going to be the comfortable afternoon I'd hoped for. I'm anxious and my daughter has broken out in hives. C'mon Villa, score another and settle us down again.

[Axl Rose]

Enjoyable match so far. Come on Villa!

[Matt C]

From what I’ve seen of the Leeds game they look utter shite so not expecting any favors from them. Need to take care of our own business.

[PeterWithesShin]

All set for a nice stress free second half...

[Demitri_C]

No one can say brighton haven't been asked bastards playing like they aiming for champions league spot.

They have a very strong bench which is worrying.  Need a 3rd and we need to keep the ball better
