Aston Villa v Arsenal Post Match Thread

[ExclDawg]

For those of us who have been on this place for a good while, and been through some fucking miserable weeks and post match threads, this really feels rather brilliant doesn’t it?

Absolutely TV!  Makes it all the sweeter

I like football.

10 pts from the last four games, who’d have thought!😁👍

Just a shame we played Bournemouth who had turned a corner rather then a downtrodden one. Still the only team to take points off them in the last 5 matches.

Has anyone else noticed how Bailey has increased the use of his right foot. This is one of the reasons he is having so much success as defenders cannot read him now.

The goal was superb.

Yep, he's much more confident going on the outside, makes him harder to read and means he's using his pace better as well, once he beats his man they're not getting back at him any more.

We were definitely gassed after about 10 minutes.  I'm hoping we play the B Team midweek and give these guys a deserved rest.  But, OH MY.

We could probably play Diaz and Digne, unless they're exhausted, they'll have next weekend off now.

I'd be more than happy with two completely different starting 11s Thu and Sun. We should get the point we need to top the group with the second string I would have thought

We actually have a really good squad with excellent depth, and it showed tonight.

A very good weeks work. Onwards and upwards.

[CT Villan]

Scrappy at times, but that's how the best teams win titles.

Arsenal are the epitome of their manager - obnoxious, cheating, dirty and classless.

...and the ref was a humongous twat.

[N'ZMAV]

this is all a bit mental.

My heart couldn't take it when it's shit, but fucking hell this is just at difficult at times.

I'm in love.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. 

[Gerrin]

We did it, let's move on.

[Allan C]

Absolutely brilliant, like a few on here I’ve got more satisfaction from this one than the previous game. I knew I disliked Arsenal but I positively hate them after that. Whinging and whining, feigning injuries, fouling. We looked totally knackered but what a fantastic team performance to hold on. Just brilliant
