I'm not watching it, who is playing where? Is Tielemans playing off the right or as the central support to Ollie?

Mate we're so fucking good. The football is incredible. Everyone is at maximum confidence. I have never seen us play like this before.

I'm just chuckling to myself with glee watching us play nowadays.

Fuck me, some of our passing in midfield, we're almost taking the piss.

Central. A less dynamic Diaby role. Dropping deeper at times to receive that direct vertical pass

It’s beautiful to watch. So happy as an armchair fan. All those watching in the flesh you lucky bastards. Hope I haven’t jinxed us

Have to say they are totally outclassed.
This is the Emery Villa performance we've been waiting for in Europe.
Having Watkins and Luiz in this team is a major difference.

Definitely not going to take how good this period is for granted given where we have been!

Got to make sure we don't slack off 2nd half.

Very decent half that. We're on a different level to them.
