Three games in a row now where we've scored 4

9th this season that we've scored at least 3, I think.

Except they scored one of ours.

Ha!

Comfortable 3 points after a European away trip. That'll do nicely!

Was finally able to catch a game live.  So nice to see a game where the other team parks a bus and we can still break them down and score 3.  For so many years. A game like this would usually end up 0-0 or 0-1 because we would make a silly mistake.

11(14) goals from midfield this season, so far, depending on if you count Diaby as a forward or midfield.

Last season we had about 24 all season.

Comfortable game and we didn't look in danger of fatigue thankfully. A really disappointing goal to concede out of nowhere really but we've scored 11 goals in a week, so we've not been short of entertainment.

Zaniolo is becoming a concern. He seems indecisive and then inevitably makes the wrong decision. Slow and laborious with the ball. The off-field shite isn't going to be helping him, but at this point, we'd be expecting him to settle and be more consistent with end product, he's arguably getting worse. If that shot hits the top corner, who knows but he's becoming a bit of a passenger.

Great to see Diaby getting a goal. He's such a key player but we don't want a goal drought starting to chip away his confidence so it was nice to see him scoring again.

Pau was very good today and McGinniesta, Douglas and Kamara had an easier game than I expected.

Good lord Barclay is shite. What happened to him???

Job done. Shame about the comedy own goal.

Fantastic stuff Villa, 20 goals in 5 home games is simply brilliant, sadly the day has been spoilt with Charlie's passing.

Like a training match. The worst side I’ve seen at VP in years.

Shocking game, those celebrity testimonial games would have more intensity.

It was a very professional performance against a team who were happy sit back for long periods. My stream froze on McGinn who looked like making it for 4. I clicked on Live Score and couldn’t believe it said 3-1.

I’ve since seen the ridiculous goal we let in  but I’d like to see how McGinn didn’t make it 4. It looked an absolute sitter.

[Drummond]

Job done. Most goals scored in the division (tied with Newcastle).

Easy as you like that.

[Ian.]

26 goals in 10 games?

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

 Got the shock goal conceded bit right: tipster ahoy!

Other than that a decent afternoon's work. Wish John had scored that sitter!
