Developing into a bit of a fucking nightmare to have running at you is our Morg'

And then we bring on Ramsey, so we have two players doing it. It's almost cheating!

Then Bailey's out there as well. Must be a total nightmare.

Pau's 50-yard glide wasn't too shabby either.

Still can’t believe they didn’t show a replay of that, his shimmy near the start was unreal.
I remember being a bit concerned when he first arrived that he kept getting done for pace on the turn when they ran at him - look at him now.
Emery is a genius.

Thought he had a really good game, should have capped it with a goal but if he keeps this up he'll be starting more games than not .

When Ramsey came on, did Rogers move to the right of centre mid? The game plan looked to be 4-3-2-1 (or 4 2 3 1).

Not to my eye, Philogene was on that flank. Rogers played well but I thought should have done better with two great chances, one he created for himself with a fine run. That's his position for me, up near Watkins.

The crazy thing about Rogers’ talent is that pretty much nobody saw this coming except the bloke who bought. A player that wasn’t exactly tearing it up in the division below, didn’t do much of anything in the game against us, and yet almost immediately played like he’d been at the top level for ages. Has essentially taken the starting spot of one of our other bright, young talents in JJ, who seems to be his best mate. Onana was mentioning in the post match interview welcoming the club is to help new players settle. You can see how it in how quickly Morgan has become a key player in this squad.

Morgan was sensational at times tonight - he brushed Arsenal's midfield aside with ease with his height, skill and power.

The one bright spot from today was his performance, what a player he could be.

Maybe my wording is clumsy, but based on the levels we are expecting I do not think any other Villa player was close to his performance.

Onana did very well at times. Kosta coming in at 18 showed he's going to have a very decent career. Tielemans warmed into the game. I actually think for a few this week was more use than last to sharpen them up at bit.

But Rogers was sensational, with one caveat. He needs to add end product, quickly

Morgan is an absolute beast.  The way he shrugged off Partey was reminiscent of Jona Lomu.  And he’s only going to get better and better!

I thought kosta was excellent considering that was his first set of minutes and that he is only 18. He is going to be some player for us i predict. He is bloody quick as well
