[Ger Regan]

Magnificent.

Great result, a cracking early 40th Birthday present for me! UTV

Real cutting edge to us up front these days. Watkins brilliant up front again, rocket of a third goal finished it. Didn't let the sitter knock his confidence. Super goal by Bailey too. Kamara and Luiz dominating as per usual. Both full backs very strong. Thought Torres was iffy on ball but that aside we are flying.

Another shitty record that Emery has put to bed.

[Scovilla]

Great . Everybody played well. I have liked Kamara's performance.
Beer will taste good.

Torres distribution when he approaches the half way line is exceptional, but a bit dodgy at times around our box.

A cracking performance once again though. Against a good, physical team. We rode out their spell after their goal really well

I love this team and I love Unai Emery.

I'm not used to this. Even when they had spells on top I never felt nervous or anything, it's an odd feeling.

The commentator made some lovely references today - mentioned the Evening Mail, The "pink and green thing" (Sports Argus?!), said that 'the bells were ringing for Villa', kept mentioning the stand names at Villa Park, how Villa Park hosted games in 1966, 1996 and will again in the upcoming Euros, how it's a special place. Even as a fan I wouldn't have snuck that much Villa in!

Villa were so strong today. It's incredible and almost a bit emotional to see our team flying after we've been so bad for so long. 11 home wins in a row isn't something I'll ever get used to.

This season is giving me 1980-81 vibes.

[Villa Lew]

Superb stuff Villa, onwards and very much upwards.

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

2nd top scorers in the league.
4 more than Man City.
Only 1 less than Man U/Chelsea combined.
Newcastle have 1 more but then we haven't played Sheff U.

[algy]

Up the fucking Villa.

That is all.

This season is giving me 1980-81 vibes.

We've shortened from 125/1 to 100/1.
