UTV!

Fantastic team performance, we look so comfortable and play some great football.

Fun European night with a +3 GD. Good work.

We even funeralled AZee in 2023, the Villa boys from Aston......

[Toronto Villa]

Excellent overall. Last 15-20 we seemed to switch off and the goal gave them belief. But by then the job was done. I'm sure Emery will pick through the areas to improve but all in all, very solid indeed.

Great stuff, a fine win with some back up players, just what we needed to quell some doubts. Chuffed for all those out there as well.

Paul Dempsey commentator on TNT.
 must be Villa.

Savage said "you watch a lot of Villa, er, a lot of football".🤣
Knew all about Emery improving the players, spoke about the improvement after 12 months etc etc.

This thread hasn't been put with the stickies yet. Emery out.

[Somniloquism]

Just need a draw tonight with the others to give us some room at the top.

Unreal! Thank You Unai Emery.
Levels above! That was the Emery euro ball performance we've been expecting. It was fantastic.
Tielemans super and player of the match
I think having Watkins and Luiz starting and Tielemans and Bailey on form made all the difference.
Absolutely beautiful.
Up The Villa!

[Exeter 77]

The perfect European away performance. I even refuse to get upset by them scoring.

[Rigadon]

Couldn’t watch this one so if anybody has a link to the highlights / goals don’t be shy!  Sounds like a great performance.  It’s certainly a great result!

Subs were interesting. You'd think at 4-0 up after 60 minutes we'd have taken a few guys off a bit sooner than we did. But, as mentioned before the game, I don't think we can currently cope with too many changes.

Still, Torres, Konsa, and Diaby all had a bit of a rest. I wouldn't be surprised if Digne and Luiz get a rest against Forest, one way or another.

[PaulWinch again]

Lovely stuff - well done again. Great to see Youri settling in and Leon continue on his streak.

[AV84]

Just need a draw tonight with the others to give us some room at the top.

Would one of them winning not be better? A draw puts them both one win from overtaking us.
