Ramsey was in the right position time and time again, I’m amazed he lasted as long as he did. His finishing let him down but it’s too be expected. Some of the comments on here are incredulous and most likely knee jerk reactions.

Why the fuck did Bailey go off!!!

Sent the wrong message and cost us the game.

FFS

I genuinely think Emery bottled it and played for a point at that stage. I'm fuming because of that substitution

There was only going to be one winner until the ridiculous decision to take Bailey off.  That’s our season right there.  6th would’ve been great at the start of the season but it’ll feel like a failure if it happens which it will now.  That’s his biggest tactical mistake to date and it’s all coming at the wrong time.  Typical fcuking Villa.

This was nothing like precious capitulation.  We were genuinely robbed tonight. 

We will definitely finish above Man Utd

Somebody, somewhere needs to explain that Bailey substitute to me. We had them shiting it down the Right at that point and we decided to settle. Got what we deserved.

Yeah terrible decision, Diaby was awful when he came on unfortunately. Luiz scores and we go on and win. Really tight margins. Sickening defeat after a strong performance.

Martinez 7, Cash 4, Carlos 6, Lenglet 5, Moreno 7, Luiz 8, Kamara 7 (Diaby 4), Bailey 7 (Tielemans 6), McGinn 7, Ramsey 7, Watkins 7.

Right on top. Bailey taking them apart. I’m afraid that one’s on Emery.

So frustrating!

Yep, absolutely ridiculous decision. Looked like we were content at 1-1. Well that's what happens.

For some bizarre reason he decided to play for a draw against a team that we were 8 points ahead of.

Steady one. Lets not lose sight of the fact we haven;t had it this good since the mid 90s, ok

Watkins 7? You're having a laugh. Try 3.

Sure as night follows day, we lose to this bunch of twats. We had so many chances and if we'd taken half of them we would've won.

Cannot understand taking Bailey off and putting Diaby on. Bailey didn't have his best game but if he'd had that chance Diaby had I'm sure he would've scored.

After we scored we we pushed hard but then seemed to try to settle for a point when we could've won it.

At least it's over now even though it's ruined my weekend. Thanks Villa.

And it’s not as good as the early 80’s. What’s your point?

Ramsey and Watkins were woeful.

Ridiculous, Watkins dominated Varane. On another night he gets a hat trick. Ramsey solid game but touch let him on crucial occasions. Best performance on our left flank for weeks.

We had more points at this stage under O'Neill. At least old Pubehead waited until March for it all to turn to shit.
