Aston Villa v Everton Match Thread

[ez]

Looks like we've ditched the high back line.

[PaulWinch again]

Bit disjointed at the moment.

[JUAN PABLO]

and lewin is down

[PeterWithesShin]

Calvert-Lewin down injured. Who had 10 mins in the sweepstake?

[PaulWinch again]

That was pretty nasty.

[paul_e]

That should be a booking, if you were that late challenging with your feet it's a yellow and given it's head-to-head contact it's just as serious as studs to a foot.

[JUAN PABLO]

Bailey oh dear

[SamTheMouse]

Well done Bailey! You useless lump.

[PeterWithesShin]

Doug booked

[Brazilian Villain]

From the Beeb's live reporting.
"Villa Park is one of my favourite grounds for atmosphere and their first home game of the season sees the players walk out to huge noise."
"This is a tremendous ground and the atmosphere is bouncing for the first home game of the season. Unai Emery, who has done a remarkable job since replacing Steven Gerrard, is being serenaded by the home faithful."

Must be part of that anti-Villa agenda the media have.

[Bad English]

They have been hacked.

[SamTheMouse]

And again. Trips over the ball this time.

Jesus Christ.

[taylorsworkrate]

I'm already done with Bailey today. Get him off

[BC Villain]

Poor start.  Very bitty at the moment

[paul_e]

That's a really soft yellow for Doug, I just don't see how that is worse that DCL going head first into Emi.
