Villa 6 (six) Brighton 1 Post Match Lower Grounds Celebration.

[Richard E]

Fair play to the Brighton fans, the away end didn’t empty when they went 3-0 or 4-1 behind as sometimes happens.

[Chris Harte]

But the best is some of them actually want the manager out. It’s incredible.  Some suggesting a boycott, some saying their performances are under par (yet the media have been praising them like fuck”.

To be fair to them, it was only five or six years ago that we were in the same situation with Steve Bruce.

Who's to say that they're wrong and the media lovies are right?

ir was half empty at 5-1

[Monty]

Not bad I guess.

It's funny, we were saying that we hadn't had that statement performance, at least against a top-of-the-table contender. Well we've had one now! Completely insane.

[Nev]

We just bullied Brighton all over the pitch today. I was really surprised De Zerbi didn't bring a player or two on at 2-0 as their small players in midfield were just getting bypassed constantly.

Whenever we're pumping a team, I always follow a match thread on their forum at the same time as ours to get a feel of how think it's going to pan out. Partly reassurance, partly schadenfreude.

Even at 0-0 they couldn't work out why they were playing Gilmour and that weedy child rather than the hard-as-nails Cameroonian guy that Chelsea will buy for £100m in two years.

You should go on the Everton forum after yesterdays result. Crisis back on and numerous suicidal Toffees.

They deserve everything they get for singing that "woo" song.

And Digne made a fantastic run off the ball for JJs goal

We were purring over that run from Digne. Took 2 defenders out and paved the way for Ramsey

[tony scott]

Great result and performance, thought Brighton didn’t play badly and will feel the score was not an accurate reflection of the game.  For us great we scored 6 isn’t it just great to see JJ back.

[Clampy]

Yeah I thought the ref was abysmal

On the way back in the car yesterday, two mates were saying how crap the ref was. I didnt notice too much really, maybe because we were winning. He did book 8 players though I think.

One of the things I like about Emery is how, more often then not, a really bad result is followed by a surprisingly good one, which then - tempting fate here - turns into a good run.

Under a lot - well, almost all - of our other managers in the current era, a bad result would usually be followed by another one and a run of poor or mediocre ones.

[Monty]

Good god, we've scored more than Man City!

[Dave]

Our upcoming fixtures are Zrinjski (H), Wolves (A), West Ham (H), Alkmaar (A), Luton (H), Forest (A), Alkmaar (H), Fulham (H) - meaning the next match we probably have in which we aren't heavy favourites to win is away to Spurs at the end of November.

There's a lot of potential to build momentum in the next two months.

[Brend'Watkins]

Everyone on top form,Torres having his best game since being here, Konsa looking masterful, that through pass to Diaby was superbly executed. The highlight for me though was seeing JJ come on, he gives me a warm glow as you know he will produce and he most certainly did.

Hopefully now isn't the time Gareth Southgate decides to pick our lads for England and everyone gets a nice two week break before the Spurs game. I still think they're going to benefit from lack of extra games, but that fixture falls better for us than it might have.

Was yesterday the perfect football day?
Met up with my nephews in the Bartons with breakfast and Guinness (x3) accompanied by a bit of Ryder Cup and six of the best from the worlds greatest football team.

I wonder how the European games are going to be handled in that run.
