As for making Villa Park a fortress.

Since Arsenal in February it's;

P:9
W:9
F:22
A:2

Absolute piece of piss. Four comfortable wins since the opening day and to use a well worn cliche, you can only brat what's in front of you.

Bit of an odd atmosphere with the game wrapped up. Goals definitely not celebrated as much as league games. Maybe this is what it's like to be a Citeh fan? Bottom line is, I've seen us look hopeless enough times over the years that I'll take us doling out a "dull" thrashing.

[DeKuip]

Have we ever played a worse team?
180 minutes and they barely put a tackle in.
That’s not just down to the financial disparity.

I think it's a credit to them that they didn't resort to kicking us all over the pitch. I do worry that we are so far ahead of most sides we'll play in the group that one side will resort to it.

Yup. Both Spurs and Brighton scored when we were 2-0 up, so just about tolerable. I do love it when away fans have nothing to celebrate. Supremacy prevails.

What was tonight’s attendance?

39467 I think.

Disgraceful, and to think we are increasing the capacity, totally not needed.

Beautiful stuff.

[Matt C]

A thoroughly professional job again, managed the tie pretty perfectly.

Duran has a bit of chaos about him, I like it.

We should be ripping out more seats and extending the terrace view.

Good to be back under the lights, as others have said a stroll largely, so hard to judge, but kellyman and, Revan did well and Duran took his goal well. I thought their keeper was poor for Durans goal and at fault for Cashs but made two good saves later on. Wish Dougie had gone off for a rest a bit earlier, he’s so important to us now.
Really liked the Hibs Sunshine on Leith rendition, good on them.
We march on.

[Clampy]

Sounded like an easy win. Good to see a couple of the kids get a run out as well.

[Goldenballs]

Great finish by Duran. I thought Tielemans was poor, and I don't care what anyone says, Olsen is not good enough to be our number 2. Dropped one in the first couple of mins but luckily Konsa cleared, almost tripped over his own feet and kicked one in, caught in no man's land a couple of times bailed out by a magnificent Cash slide tackle.

There's always going to be a drop in quality between your first and second choice, but not to this extent. Made a couple of decent saves tbf, but saves a keeper should be making. If he's our cup keeper then we're not winning anything. Still, all's well that ends well.

Other than that it was a piece of piss and thoroughly professional which is nice to say. I thought their fans were good.

Good result I liked the youngsters who played they did well good team performance.

I thought this leaving the ground last night. We’ve won every home game for 6 months.

Would be interesting to see the stats for Ezri Konsa.
His name seemed to be mentioned a thousand times on VTV
