Brilliant performance and brilliant result. 

I think we should mark the calendar, because I think today marks the day when the Emery revolution at Aston Villa no longer flies under the radar.  From now on, we will be part of the conversation at the top end of the league.  No more "surprise package".  No more "outsiders".  We're up there, on merit.

As markers go that's a pretty impressive one to put down.

A tactical masterclass from Unai and the players executed to a T.

A very slight wobble after De Zerbi had bollocked the BHA players at half-time, but otherwise in total control.

Obviously Ollie will (and should) take the headlines, but I thought Torres was sublime with his touch and distribution.

I'll take the 3 goals and 5 assists for my fantasy team as well.

My phone was screwed before the game and couldn’t bring Watkins on. What a pain in the arse!

I can’t wait for Unai Cam on Monday, it’s their best segment on the YouTube channel. This one should be fun.

Great stuff, what a fabulous result!  That’s a comeback and a half. Well done, all concerned.

But did our sweaty shirts cause their goal?

All brilliant but John McGinn my MOM. Unbelievable display.

Almost a perfect game for Villa except for the Brighton goal…which was so crap it didn’t deserve to be called a goal!

That was sexy. Enjoyed Southgate getting boos when his horseface popped up on the screen.

What what the big square of empty seats in the upper Doug Ellis about?

There was a block in the Trinity as well. I assume unsold Terrace View and Lower Grounds seats.

From the comments on The Guardian's match report.

Got to hand it to Emery. He solves the problem with Villa’s kit by instructing his team to win without breaking a sweat.
